FOREIGN CROP PROSPECTS

From a world viewpoint interest
in agriculture at this season OF the
wear centers chiefly in the condition
of the growing autumn-sown cereals
and the seeding of spring crops.
South of the equator corn husklng
and the drilling of cereals for mar
vest in the winter of 1854 Sig
nalizes the approach of the dead sea-
son. In Argentina the corn crop
OFFICIALLY forecasted to be 1877 ,O0O,-
900 bushels, is the second largest IN
the history of the country, though
almost 1OO,000,OO bushels sless
than the record last year. In both
Argentina and Australia the pre-
paratory work of getting in seed ior
the next cereal harvest is being pur-
sued. with weather and soil gener-
ally satisfactory.
In the northern hemisphere the
ouickened growth of autumn-sowh
vegetation and the active prosecu-
t;on Of field work are the principal
a agricultural features. The first mar
yost north of the equator-that OF
wbeat and oilseeds in British lndla

The farmer has, however, been con

more complicated business than is gen

Cereals in north Africa are near
ing the ripening stage. Prospects in
Algeria and Tunis are for abundant
harVests, but in Morocco drought has
impaired vegetation, especially of
barley. In Egypt the appearance of
both barley and wheat is officially
returned as inferior to that at the
same time last year.
In so far as known, the general ag-
ricultural situation in Europe pre-
sents somewhat less hopeful out
look than in April, 1912. Weather
and other conditions at seedtime last
autumn were not entirely suspicious,
and on the continent, as a whole,
several million acres intended for
Some contraction has been officially
reported from the United Kingdom,
France, Spain and Germany, but the
really important curtailment was in
a group of countries comprising
Hungary, koumania, Servia, Bull
garia, European Turkey and Russia.
Official returns from Roumania and
Hungary indicate shrinkage, com
pared with the previous year, of
about one and a half and three
quarters millions acres, respectively;
and private reports state that in the
Balkan states large proportion of
the surface usually sown to winter
wheat remained unsown. In the last
named countries unseeded lands are
likely to be largely laid down to
| spring-soWn crops other than wheat,
making the chances for good crops
of that cereal very remote, whereas
in Russia, where large areas are said
/ to have been left unseeded in the
fall, the loss may be made up by
sowing of spring wheat-there
favorite object of cultivation.
On the areas sown last autumn the
cereals in all European countries
! from which information has been re-
ceived seem to have wintered in fair
health. Excepting hard freezes over
practically the whole continent in
February, with wide expanses bare
of snow, hibernal temperatures, save
in the colder regions of Russia, were
with few exceptions unseasonably
mild and precipitation copious No
extensive winter-kill, however, ex-
cept it be in Russia, seems to have
resulted from the rigorous weather;
the sporadic complaints of thin
stands and weak plants are due
rather to excessive moisture, weedi-
ness, and the ravages of vermin.
Upon the opening of spring the
general condition Of autumn-sown
fields in the United Kingdom,
France, Germany, Austria and Hun
gary was somewhat inferior to that
at the corresponding time the year
before, owing largely to the back
ward state of growth of late seedlings,
the early sown being generally
strongly rooted and vigorous. In
Italy, on the other hand, the stand
was good and the appearance OF the
plants fully normal; in Spain the sit
uation was doubtful because of pro-
tracted drought during the winter in
important agricultural regions. On

Inc Business Side Of Farming

There are two distinct phases to the
business OF farming; the productive
phase, about which great deal has
been said in recent years; and the ex-
change phase, or business side. about
which very little has been said or done
1t is to this phase | wish to call your
attention i'll this article.
The writer does not wish to under
estimate the value OF Scientific methods
in producing farm products, but it IS
his firm belief that this phase has been
emphasized so much during recent
years that the business side OF farm
ing is often times lost sight of. 1t IS
important, not only to produce abunG-
ant crops, but also to market them TO
advantage, and to be able to determine
what 1t has cost to produce those crops.
1t is admitted that the farmer Is
rapidly becoming a factor to be reckon
ed with in the business world; that the
average farmer knows more about
scientific farming than did his father;
that he recognizes the value of proper
cultivation, diversified farming, Iertll-
lzatlOn, and rotation OF crops; out he
has not yeS advanced to any consider
able degree in his methods of conduct
ing his business affairs.
All OF us are ready to admit that the
financial side of any business is of the
utmost lmporta &c, and no one attempts
t. conduct mercantile, manufacturing,
or banking business without keeping ac-
curate records of all his business trans
actions and the more important events
affecting that business. Yet, the fact
