WHEAT CROP LARGE
Greatest Production in History Of
Country Is Predicted.
NeD Record Is Expected for Third
Consecutive Yedr-Acreage
Increase Is Big.

Chicago - Indications point to a
wheat crop of more than 900, 900, 900
bushels this year, against 891, 900, 900
bushels harvested last year. This, if
realized, will make the third ccnsecu-
tive record-breaking crop.
The United States last year raised
684, $50, 900 bushels of winter wheat
and set new record. 1t was one of
the best things that ever happened to
this country to have bumper crop, as
it enabled the United States to feed
all Europe and obtain the highest
prices in years.
This year it is possible to raise 700,-
900, 900 bushels bushels or more of
winter wheat with favorable conditions
to harvest. This, with spring wheat
crop estimated at 240, 900, 900 bushels,
which is not high figure, will make
the wheat crop reach $40, 900, 900 bush
els. The wheat crop last spring was a
poor one-only FOG, 900, 900 bushels.
A winter wheat acreage of Al, $685.
900, an increase of Abs, 900 acres, or
| Ill per cent more than was needed
for the harvest of 1914 is the largest
ever known. The plant has come
through the winter in unusually good
condition and indications are that
there will be little less in acreage
from various causes up to harvest. The
estimate of 700, 200, 900 bushels Of
winter wheat is based on a loss of only
263, 900 acres up to harvest and yielc
per acre of slightly more than II bush
els, or about two bushels an acre less
than last year. For spring wheat
which is yet to be seeded, the estimate
is based on an acreage of $4,000, 00'
acres and yield of 13 bushels ar
acre, or the same as harvested in 1918
when the. crop was 240, 100000 bush
els. AS prices are high it is expecte'
that with an early spring farmers il
the Northwest will put in the larges
in years and possibly it may excee'
10, 900, 900 acres, against 1883, 00
harvested last year.

n Rescued After SO
Hours UNDERGROUND

Hinton, W. Va.-Forty-seve miners
were rescued alive Sunday from the
workings of the Layland mines of the
New River & Pocahontas Consolidated
Coal company, wrecked by an ex-
plosion Tuesday. AS from tomb the
men, who had been four days and four
nights without food or drink, came
again into the light of day to be greet
ed by joyous relatives and friends.
Rescuers, headed by j. W. Paul, of
the bureau of mines; Early Henry,
chief of the State department of
mines, and H. M. Bertelot, general
manager of the company, entered mine
No. 3. Tearing down brattice work
to let in fresh air, they found five men
who seized and kissed them. The men
were able to walk to the mine en-
trance unaided. They had barricaded
themselves under the direction of one
of their number, Sam Morici.
Continuing the search, the rescuers
encountered another brattice about 500
yards beyond Here, in entry No. 10,
they found AZ men alive. The miners
were so weak the rescuers had to carry
them to the entrance. AS Sam Morici
was the hero who compelled his little
party to barricade themselves, so did
Hugh Mcmillan and John Whalen prac-
tically force the larger party to build
a rude barricade to shut out the nox-
ious afterdamp.
Realizing that their only hope for
rescue lay in keeping out the gas and
afterdamp, Mcmillan and Whalen
made their companions, mostly foreign
birth, collect planks for a barricade-
Behind this barricade the AZ waited II
the darkness 90 hours until the res
cuers came.
The rescued men suffered severely
from lack of food and drink. Medica
aid was given them promptly and the,
were taken to their homes. All, it il
believed, will recover.
Fifty-three men, including those
found Sunday, had been rescued alive
So bodies had been recovered and 81
or more were unaccounted for. AL
but IL of the dead have been brought
out.
The rescue parties worked feverishl,
following the rescue of the AZ, bu
found no more alive.
