RECORD YIELD
Over One Billion Bushels Of
Wheat Will be Grown in the
United States During This
Year.

Washington. tune.-A billion bushel
wheat crop, the greatest ever grown in
worlds history, is indicated for the COM
ing harvest in today's forecast by the
federal crop reporting boards on grow
ing winter and spring wheat crops.
Should that enormous quantity be
harvested, the United States would have
upwards of 3S5,ooo,ooo bushels during
the year to supply tie demands of war
ring European nations. Domestic con-
sumption this year will probably reach
535 ,ooo, 900 bushels for food, and SO, 600, =
600 for seeding.
Influenced by prospective heavy
European demands, American farmers
in the fall sowed the largest area ever
planted in this country to winter wheat

BRECKENRIDGE COUNTY
FAIR PLANS ARE ON
Directors Are Busy-With As
sistance and Interest Of Ev.
cry Citizen, Great Fair Will
Be Held.
LIVE INTEREST IS SHOWN

A bunch of live, progressive business
men and farmers have their heads and
hearts, their energy, their brains and
all that goes to make success the
County Fair at Hardinsburg to be held
August Is, 10 and 20. Twenty FIVE
good men are behind the fair this year,
and they will surely make it go and
give us one of the best fairs ever held
there. What they want and must have,
is the cooperation of every man, wo-
man and child in the county to help
them bring success to an institution
that helps to build up the farmer, the
merchant and the live stock dealer.
There is no better stock, nor a great.
er variety raised in any county in the
State than there is In breckenridge
county. There are no better class of
farmers. While they do not farm on
an extensive scale, as in other counties,
what they do raise is good and com.
pares well with any county. Brecken-
ridge county is growing better every
year. Better farming is going on and
crops are more diversified. The farm
ers have more products to sell and are
not depending on just one staple.
The object of a County Fai. is to
bring all these products, and the people
who raise them, together once year;
to take look at what their neighbors
are doing, get new ideas and new in
SEPARATIONS to help them in their work.
The County Fair is TO Breckenridge
county what the State Fair is to the
State of Kentucky.
It's means of development of in
formation on all things that go to make
up a good county and intelligent, pros
porous and successful citizenship.
Now, good people, from every nook
and corner in Breckenridge county, the
Fair Management appeals to you to
help them make the fair this year a
grand success. There is no good
reason why we shouldn't have one of
the best fairs in the State this year.
There never was better time and finer
prospect. All hands get their shoulders
to the wheel and push it to success.
Get ready now.

RECORD WHEAT
CROP FORECAST
Estimated by Government For
950,000,000 Bushels This
Year.

Washington, June S-A billion-bushel
wheat crop, the greatest ever grown in
the worlds history, is indicated for the
coming harvest in today's forecast by
the Federal crop reporting board on the
growing winter and spring wheat crops.
Should that enormous quantity be
harvested the United States would have
upward of 5S5, ooo, 900 bushels of wheat
during the coming year to supply the
demands of the warning European ma
tons, which are expected to increase
rather than diminish. Domestic con-
sumption this year probably will reach
SIS, 900, 900 bushels for food purposes
and about SO, 600 900 bushels for seeding.
Basing its forecast on the condition of
the growing crops on June /, the crop
reporting board today estimated the final
production of winter and spring wheat
combined would be go, ooo, 900 bushels.
The actual production, however, will be.
greater or less than the figures stated in
proportion as conditions from June | to
harvest time are better or worse than
usual. A billion-bushel harvest, with
good growing conditions, is not improb-
able in view of the fact that in the
record crop year of 19l2 the prospects
increased 81, 900 900 bushels from June
to harvest.
Influenced by the prospective heavy
European demands for grain, American
farmers last fall sowed the largest aera
ever planted in this country to winter
wheat-4o, Io9 600 acres-and this spring
I9, 24S, 900 acres were sown i'll spring
wheat, exceeding last years area by al
most 100000 acres. Winter and
spring wheat areas combined show an
increase of 4 per cent. over last years
acreage. The wheat sown last fall came
through the winter in splendid condi-
tion but deteriorated during MAY.
Spring wheat was somewhat hindered by
cool and wet weather, but on June I
showed a condition l per cent. better
than the average for the last ten years.
