That the United States is raising
more wheat to the acre than was the
case a half century ago is shown by
the following excerpt from a bulletin
issued by the department of agricul-
ture: The average yield per acre of
wheat in the United States during the
five years 1909-1913 was 14.7 bushels,
which was 3.6 bushels per acre above
the average reported for 1s66-1s7O.
This apparent increase in average
yield, applied to the acreage OF wheat
in 1914, equals 1s2, 10000 bushels.

ISuperdreadnaught Audacious Sunk OFF
Ireland by Unknown Agent Oct. ~.
New York.-Rumors of disaster to
the British superdreadnaught Audac-
ious, which have persisted ever since
the White Star liner Olympic, diverted
from her course, arrived at Tough
Swilly on October go, are now CON
|firmed.
After a career of less than two years
the Audacious, third in tonnage and
armament of his majesty's warships,
lies at the bottom of the ocean off the
north coast of Ireland. She was hit by
ia torpedo or disabled by a mine Octo-
Der 27. With the possible exception of
one or two men, the whole crew of 800
officers and men was rescued by
small boats from the Olympic.
The rescue was made in a rough
sea through brilliant and daring sea-
manship on the part of the White Star
crew.
Olympic Comes Ten Miles.
The ~battleship's cry for assistance
was caught by the wireless operator of
the Olympic, which was only about 10
miles distant. The steamer rushed for
ward at full speed. Volunteers were
called for and double the number
necessary to man the lifeboats re-
sponded. The crippled battleship was
reached in a few minutes after 9
o'clock and before noon all but 100 of
her men had been transferred.
By that time the battleship had a
decided list at the stern, where, just
below the water line, she had received
her wound. Two of her engines were
unframed, but the n aft was put out
of commission.

Salt Lake City.-The 51st annual
convention of the National Wool Grow
ers' association closed November Ia,
adoption of resolutions which ask con-
Hsress to make an appropriation for
classification of all unoccupied por-
lions of the public domain as to their
adaptability for grazing and agricul-
Eural purposes, and that pending such
classification no changes be made in
the present land laws. The adoption
eof this resolution followed statements
made by speakers that much of the
public land now being taken up by
homesteaders is not well adapted for
agricultural purposes and should be
devoted to grazing.
Other resolutions adopted petition
the government to require the same
ante-mortem and post-mortem inspec-
zion of imported meats as of domestic
meats and the marking of imported
meats where offered for sale; to ap-
propriate 100000 for the extermina-
ton of predatory wild animals; to
place a reasonable" duty on imported
wool, and to enact a pure fabric law.
The association also requests the de-
partment of agriculture to establish
standards for American wool. Uniform
procedure in claiming wild animal
bounties is recommended to prevent
duplication of payments by states.
Officers Are Reelected.
Officers of the association were re-
elected unanimously, as follows:
F. J. Hagenbarth of Salt Lake City,
president; A. ]. Knollin of Chicago,
eastern vice president; M. l. Power Of
Flagstaff, Ariz., western vice presi-
dent; F.. D.. Miracle of Helena, Mont,
treasurer; s. w. Mcclure of Salt Lake
City, secretary.
The constitution of the association
was amended to provide that Salt Lake
City should be the permanent head
quarters and convention seat of the
association.
