CROPS
ARE BOUNT|FU[
Departments Reportfor October
Shows Bumper Crops.
THE FARMER is PROSPEROUS.
Analysis Made BY Secretary Wilson
Shows How the Government
Has Stimulated scien-
tlfic Farming.

Washington.-Never before have
the great cereal crops of the United
States been SO bountiful as those of
this year Records of production for
almost every cereal have been sur
passed, in some instances by millions
of bushels
The October crop report of the De-
partment of Agriculture, just issued,
shows spring wheat, oats, barley, rye
and hay all have exceeded the best,
record productions, while the crops Of
corn and potatoes from present indi-
cations also will be the greatest ever
when harvested.
Speaking of this great showing
made by the country's farmers,
James Wilson, secretary OF agricul-
ture, said:
The crops are the heaviest on rec
ord. The season has been favorable,
but some credit is due to the wide eff
forts made in late years by the Fed
eral government and the States to
help farmers throughout the country
to get better returns from the average
acre.
"The world has been searched for
better plants by the Department of
Agriculture and it's scientists have
been creating new plants by hybridiza-
ton for the several localities.
"TWenty-eight million pieces of
literature have been sent out by the
Department in addition to the advices
from the State stations along these
lines. So the farmers have been
helped in producing their record
breaking crops
The features of the report are the
enormous harvests Of corn, oats and
spring wheat. More than 5000, 000,-
600 bushels of corn, almost 100000
900 bushels OF oats and 100000, 900
bushels of spring wheat have been
grown. The States in the Northwest
are harvesting the greatest crops ever
grown there.
In North Dakota LAG, 500, 900 bushels
of spring wheat, the greatest spring
wheat harvest ever grown by any
State, was produced. The yield per
acre there was increased from eight
bushels last year to Is bushels this
year.
Iowa, with 219, 780, 900 bushels; Illi-
nois, with 182,726,000 bushels; Mime
sofa, with 122.932,00O bushels, and
North Dakota, with 96,13S,0 900 bushels,
were the principal oat producers. In
each Of these States the yield per
acre this year was almost double last
years yield.
It looks as If we won't have to i'm
port any potatoes this year." said Sec
rotary Wilson in commenting on the,
record potato crop. Indications are
that the farmers will have los, 0OO,-
900 bushels more potatoes this year
than last, when, by reason of the short
crop, large quantities were imported
from Europe.

London.--With the fighting on the
Turkish frontiers steadily increasing
and Montenegro winning decisive vic
tories, which win have the effect Of
greatly encouraging the other Balkan
States, the war situation is more seri-
Gus now than, at any time since the
beginning of hostilities. The Monte
negrins have won more victories over
the Turks,
Unconfirmed dispatches were re-
ceived here, saying that Seryia and
Bulgaria had declared war. Why
these countries are Withholding their
proclamations is mystery in diplo-
matte circles, but this failure to act Is
not construed as indicating any desire
for peace.
Official circles were stirred by the
direct prediction of European con-
nict made at ST. Petersburg by the
Russians minister of war, M. Sucholli-
mott, who said:
The Balkan outbreak is the be-
ginning of great European clash,
into which Russia inevitably will be
drawn. . ss-szszzzs=z1s
The Montenegrins added the cap
ture of Turkish forts at Tuki to their
victories at Podgoritza and Detchitch
Mountain. The capture Of the forts
gives the Montenegrins control of the
road to the town Of Scutari. 1t was
reported that the Montenegrins had
taken Scutari itself, but this was re-
garded as an error.
The fighting, according to dis
patches, has developed into the worst
kind of guerilla warfare. Prisoners
are being massacred by both sides and
non-combatants are being slain with
out discrimination.
Several skirmishes are reported
from points along the Turko-Bul-
garian and Turko-Servian frontiers.
lurking is bringing 100000 Asiatic
troops to Constantinople, which will
augment her European force to about
100000 men.
The Montenegro Consul General
here received the following official
message, from Cettinje:
Military operations continue sue
cessful Several important Turkish
positions taken already Army ad-
vancing.'
Unless Turkish reinforcements have
reached Scutari 1t is considered prob
able that that city will soon fall into
the hands Of the Montenegrins. While
the way there has been opened, how
ever, it is pointed out that it may not
be passed without serious fighting, as
the Albanian tribesmen in the
vicinity have been aroused by Turk
ish emissaries and are expected to
join the Ottoman troops.

Washington. - American occupation
of Nicaragua is complete and while
military law prevails peace has been
restored and the civil authorities are
taking up slowly the reins OF govern
ment.
Admiral Switzerland, in dispatches
to the Navy Department, stated that
federal Nicaraguan soldiers gradually
are being paid of by special proclama-
ton of President Diaz and that hun
dreds OF them are returning to the cor
fee plantations where an abundant
crop is awaiting the harvesting.

plies are being rushed to the cities to
relieve conditions. Lake steamers are
sailing on regular schedules.
When the American sailors from the
Colorado entered Chinandega it was
discovered that the plaza, or public
square, had been mined with $50
sticks of dynamite. For some I'M
known reason the charge was not
ignited, thereby preventing a terrible
loss of life among Americans. The
mine was connected by wire with an
adjacent tower.
Admiral Switzerland sent correct
ed list of the wounded at Leon as fol
lows:
Private Wittsmiler, of the Colorado;
Lance, ordinary seaman, Colorado:
Bladder, marine trumpeter
The wounded and sick will be trans
ferred to the Ancon Hospital at Pan
anna by the Colorado.
DIR. Castrillo, Nicaraguan minister to
the United States. sent a note OF
thanks to the State Department for the
aid given by the American government
in quelling the revolution in his coun-
try. He deplores the killing and
wounding of the American marines.
The State Department replied saying
that if through. death of the American
marines Nicaragua will become q
united country their loss will not have
been in vain.

STORMS CAUSED DAMAGE.

To Crops In Number Of
Foreign Countries, Ac-
eordfng To Reports.

Washington.-Storm have caused
great damage to crops in number Of
foreign countries, according to reports
to the Department Of Agriculture, and
In some instances material importa5
lions from this country will be neces.
sary to meet the deficiency. Great
Britain particularly suffered and there
the harvest has been one of the most
unsatisfactory in many years in quail
ity, quantity, expense and difficulty of
reaping.
Spoiled hay lies upon thousands Of
acres of British saturated meadows,
vast expanses of standing grain have
been beaten down by gales. many
fields of shocked wheat are soaked
with rain and root crops are rank with
weeds. The barley crop has been
partly ruined; the oat crop has de-
Perforated more than any other cereal,
with a below-average yield; potatoes
have been blighted and hops alone
Beem to promise almost full average
yield. Hay suffered most.
In Canada a deficiency of over g.
000, 600 bushels of winter wheat is
ascribed almost entirely to the rigors
of winter and the quality Of large
proportion of the Ontario 1912 crop
has been materially impaired by wet
harvest weather Official indications
point to slight decrease in the Cana
dian winter wheat yield. Rye produc-
ton is estimated at 3,136,000 bushels,
against 2,694,000 bushels last year.
The cat production is estimated at al
most 100000 bushels greater than
last year. Canadian hay and clover
yielded 100000 tons less in 1912 than
was figured in the preliminary esti-
mate for 1911. Canadian alfalfa total
estimated production attained 177,300
tons, compared with 227,900 pre-
liminary last year.
While the unusually inclement
weather in France may not have seri-
ously diminished the grain yield there
as whole, the quality has been ad-
yersely affected. AS the French con-
sumption requires over 340,000,000
bushels of wheat, and the carry over
from last year is exceptionally small,
the UIHCldl pISu1ClIOh IS that IL WOulu
seem that rather important imports
may again be necessary the coming

Barley is satisfactory in quantity in
France, but extensive discoloration
may make the supply of good brewing
sorts scanty. Rye, with $4,000 acres
greater area in France. yields almost
81, 100000 bushels this year, compared
WITH almost 100000 bushels in 1911
Oats suffered seriously there from rain
