Washington, D. C.-The first big

House received estimates aggregating
S2,701, 1927 for pay, subsistence, sup
plies, horses, barracks, transportation
and engineering work for the troops
now at Vera Cruz and on the Mexican

that the necessity for these deficiency
estimates could not have been fore
seen when previous estimates were
submitted" There is no reference to
army plans Congress was asked to
make the appropriations Immediately.
The largest item is $1,4S3,O74 for
transportation of the army, which is
additional to $946, 6,371 estimated March
II. This amount the War Department
says, is required to cover the expense
of moving troops, Of keeping certain
transports in commission, chartering
of vessels, purchase of coal and water
and of stevedoring in connection with
chartered vessels, and the purchase of
additional draft and pack animals re-
quired for proper equipment of troops
in the field"
For horses for cavalry, artillery,
engineers, ETC., the War Department
asked $405,825, which, is explained,
was for purchase of mounts to replace
unserviceable animals and to equip
the troops to the authorized strength.
The other items are pay of the army,
$7S,663, which is additional to $1,750,-
600 deficiency estimate submitted in

THE GREATEST WHEAT CROP.
One-fifth Greater Than Previous Rec
ord Winter Wheat Harvest.


Washington, D. C.-The greatest
crop of wheat ever grown, one-fifth
again as large as that grown in 1912,
grown last year, and more than half
again as large as the record crop
is indicated by statistics announced
by the Department of Agriculture.
In all, 63O,O00,00O bushels will be
produced if the highly favorable con-
ditions existing since the crop was
planted last fall continue until harvest
time. The acreage abandoned through
unfavorable conditions of the winter
amounted to only 81 per cent. of the
area planted, an unusually low area.
This makes the area remaining to be
harvested a record one of 35,3S7, 900
acres.
Indications are that Kansas will
have crop of 132,OOO,O0O bushels, or
45,50O,0O0 bushels more than last year,
and Oklahoma 35,5OO,OO0, or 100000
bushels more than last year.
Winter wheat: Condition 959. Area
remaining to be harvested 35,3S7, 900
acres, or 1,119,000 acres less than
planted last autumn, but 3,6S8,000
acres more than harvested last year.
Indicated yield per acre, 178 bush
els. Indicated production, 630,000,000
bushels.
These figures compare with condi-
tions of 95.6 on April 1, ard 91.9 on
May l, 1913.
