BIG CROPS ASSURED
BY AUGUST REPORT
PRELIMINARY ESTIMATE FROM
WASHINGTON SHOWS BUMPER
YIELD OF SPRING WHEAT.
CORN is CONSIDERABLY ABOVE
THE AVERAGE.
Increase Made In Production of Oats
Rye, Barley, White Potatoes
and Hay-Mchigan Oats
Encouraging.

This years grain crops in the Unit
ed States will be far in excess Of last
years yield, it was estimated Sat
urday by the department of agricul
ture.
1t will be better than the average
crop for the past ten years, and in
the case of number of products will
make a new record. if present esti.
mates are not overthrown by unfor-
seen conditions.
The country's corn crop, estimat'
ed at 2,S11 100000 bushels, will be
the largest in the nations history
with the exception of the years 1906
and 1910, the former being the banner
year with 1927, 100000 bushels. AS
for the wheat crop, estimated at ESQ.,
100000 bushels, that will rank fifth
in size during the past 20 years.
The oats crop will be the largest
the country has gathered SURPRISING
by II 100000 bushels that of 1910,
the previous record. In barley, too
this year will establish a new record
the estimated yield of $4,000, 900
bushels being 24,000,000 bushels great
er than that of 1906, the previous
best year The yield of rye, $4,000, 000
bushels, will equal that of 1910, the
former record year.
or potatoes, which will amount this
year to 81, 100000 bushels, only 1909
with its 3S9,000,000 bushels, produced
a larger yield.
Michigan is expected to produce
7,3S2,000 bushels Of winter wheat of
quality rated at rs. The unusual
weather in the state has reduced the
corn crop to a condition rated at 70,
as against 81 for 1911, and rs, the
average for the last ten years.
Michigan oats, however, show en-
couraging reports, this years crop
standing 81, compared with 81 for
1911 and 80 for the ten-year average.
