The GROWING WHEAT

A crop of winter wheat that will
break the record is indicated by
the the Governments report for
May. Condition has improved,
since the April report, from 1913 to
SOL, which may be compared with
S2.1 for May of last year. The
number of acres abandoned since
sowing is unexpectedly large 3,11S,-
900, but it may be recalled that
the number last year was 4, 439 900.
So great was the increase of acreage
for this years crop, however, that
the loss Of 3,11S,O00 acre leaves an
area exceeding by 1,94O, 1000 the
area at harvest in 1910. While
the average reduction has been about
9 per cent. , the losses have been ex-
ceptionally heavy in Kansas (23
per cent? and Oklahoma go per
cent? owing to the dry weather
there last fall. Last years crop of
winter wheat was 464 ,O44 900
bushels, and that of 1909 was 49,.
1866, 900. There is fair promise
this year Of about 5000, 200, 600
bushels. The Government, for the
first time in a May report, estimates
the probable output, adopting the
method which for two years (until
December LAST was used by the
New York Produce Exchange.
This method points to a yield Of
4S9, 1926, 900 bushels. 1t is reported
that for spring wheat Gas to which
no official report has been made)
there is ten per cent increase in
acreage. If allowance be made for
impairment hereafter, therefore,
we may reasonably expect to see a
bountiful yield of wheat. The con-
dition of rye is above the ten years
average, and a crop exceeding that
of last year by about 7 per cent is
now indicated.

BIRDMEN AT PQILAICH
