BIG GRAIN CROPS.
Worlds Production Will be Large.

Washington, Sept. 20.-Big cereals
crops this year in nearly all the world s
chief agricultural countries are fore
cast in cable reports received in the
department of agriculture today from
the International Institute of Agri-
culture at Rome.
The total 1915 production Of cereals
in countries included in the published
reports, plus Canada and Asiatic Rus
sia, are estimated at:
Wheat, 3,134, 100000 bushels; rye,
,O93,0OO,0OO; barley, 1,0S9,OOO, 900;
oats, 3,44S, 100000. The 1915 produc-
ton Of corn in Italy, Roumania,
Asiatic and European Russia, Switzer-
land, United States anl Japan is
placed at S.292,OOO,OOO bushels.
Expressed as percentages, taking
1914 production as 100 per cent,
these 1915 crops promise to be for
wheat 1923 per cent, rye 1867, barley
1885, oats 125 and corn HOS.
For ten governments of Asiatic Rus
sia the 1915 forecast is: For wheat,
IA, 100000 bushels; rye, 2S,OOO,OO
barley, 100000, and oats, 141.OOO,-
900. For Italy, corn in 1915 is esti-

WHEN TIE TICK GOES OUT.
Government to Take up More Active
Work Against Cattle Pest.

Asking farmers whether they de-
sire TO feed cattle or ticks, the United
states department of agriculture is
about to embark on spectacular
campaign throughout the tick -infest
ed region of the South to arouse farm
crs to take the steps that will stop the
annual tribute of $4,000, 900 now be-
ing paid to the tick. Attractively col
ored and illustrated literature will
be used I'm this work.
AS the result of the anti-tick cam
paign, one-third of the tick k-infestcd
area of the South, a region as large as
the German empire, has been cleared
since 1906 but 1t is now desired to
push the work much more rapidly
than in the past as the country needs
the meat the South could profitably
supply If the tick were banished and
the South needs the dollars that will
roll in when the tick goes out.
The department stands ready to CO.
operate with any county that wishes to
engage In this work. Agents of the
Southern Railways agricultural de-
partment will also aid farmers in
warning on the tick wherever possible
and, win cooperate with all agencies
engaging In this work.

CRIMSON CLOVER SEED.
Farmers Warned to Ascertain Gcrmi-
nation OF What They Use.

Washington, Sept. 22.-Heavy i'm
portations OF crimson clover seed OF
low termination have caused the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture to
warn farmers to ascertain the germi-
nation Of the crimson clover seed
they are using. Otherwise many crop
failures are sure to result from using
dead seed. Since July Is, 1915, &c
lots Of crimson clover seed have been
imported. In three of these lots, con-
tanning enough seed to SOW over g.
$50 acres, there was no seed that could
DO expected to grow under field con-
ditiOns. In five other lots, aggrcgating
enough to SOW $500 acres the seed
only terminated from 45 to so per
cent. The importation Of these lots
together with 1,OO0,O 900 pounds of seed
Of low termination imported during
May and June, makes it more import
ant than ever that farmers should
know the termination OF the crimson
clover seed they are seeding. The De-
partmcnt of Agriculture has no power
to prevent tho admission of such seed
be on their guard in planting.

$5O,OOO,0OO TO BELGIUM.
Contributions To Aid Stricken Nation
Greatest I'm IIistOry-NOw Nearly
100000 Persons Destitute.

london, Sept. 2O.-The first COM
plete report Of the Commission Of Re-
lief in Belgium, covering the first
eight months Of It's existence reveals
that in income and expenditure the
organization forms the greatest relief
movement of history.
The commission has collected and
disbursed $5O,00O,OOO, $4,000, 900 of
which has been contributed in the
form of money or food by the people
OF the United States and the British
Empire and Belgium itself. The bulk
of the income has come from other
than purely philanthropic sources, but
tho raising of this enormous sum has
been cxclusively.t work of the COM
mission, which by financial arrange
ments with Belgian individuals and in
stitutions, exchange of currency with
Belgium and a system of providing the
solvent Belgian inhabitants has main
tanned the entire population of a ma
ton for almost year.
A remarkable feature of the report,
which has hitherto received but little
notice, Is the effort being made by the
Belgians to help themselves. Over
so per cent. of the money expended by
the commission in benevolcnce is be-
ing furnished by Belgians abroad, and
a large amount also is being supplied
by Belgians in Belgium.
In discussing the report, Herbert
c. Hoover, chairman of the commits
sion, said:
1t may cause more surprise among
Americans who believe that the Unit
ed States is provisioning the Belgian
and French people in the track of war
that only something over $4,000, 900 in
food, clothes and money has come
from the United States. However, the
American public should realize that
the commission in it's organization,
working personnel and political as
poets is distinctly American. The
American charitable support, so early
and promptly given, came at the very
inception OF the movement, when such
backing was vital to the success of the
organization in giving it time to build.
This support gave the commission it's
foundation, from which it acquired
the moral prestige that enabled it to
secure vitality necessary concessions
from the various belligcrent govern
ments.
Nor is the necessity for this valued
support at all over. The problem be.
comes more difficult every day, for the
number Of destitute has increased
from l000.0OQ last October lo 2.150,-
900 In June ana now grows 1t the
rate oi 100000 a month. And our re

keep pace with the need, if the chari-
table public loses interest in our work.
The continued support Of America il
necessary to provide the commission
with the moral prestige as an Ameri-
can institution which it now possesses
in the sight Of the warning powers,
and tho maintenance of this prestige
can only be secured by the continued
sentimental and practical backing of
the American people,"
