Wheat Said to Be No Good.

Washington.-A total production Of
495,000,000 bushels of winter wheat
was forecast Monday by the depart
ment Of agriculture, basing its esti-
mate on the condition of the crop on
April l and an assumption Of average
abandonment Of acreage and average
influence on the crop to harvest.
That compares with 655,045,000
bushels, the estimated production in
1915, and 6S4 100000 bushels In 1914
Condition Below Average.
Condition of winter wheat on April
was 1873 per cent of normal,
against 1873 last year, 95.6 in 1914. and
S73, the average for the last 10 years.
There was a decrease in condition
from December to April l Of 9.4
points, compared with an average de-
cline of 3.5 points between those dates
in the last 10 years.
The department OF agriculture, in a
statement Analysing the report, said:
"The small production forecast Is
due partly to reduction of about II
per cent from the acreage Of the pre-
ceding year and to low condition OF
growth, namely, 1873 per cent Of nor
NAL, which is lower than the condition
on April ] In any year since 1904; 1t
Is 10 per cent poorer than the 10-year
average on April /.
1.-THE cause of the low condition was
a wet, cold fall, causing poor seed
beds and poor start for winterlng
Much of the crop was sown late, part
ly from necessity Of the season and
partly to avoid Hessian fly.

vantage of the evacuation of the Beth

occupation Of that position by the
Germans, has thrown several divisions

far has been unable to break that line
at any point.
The bombardment of the whole
front west of the Mouse Is Of increas-
ing intensity on both side. Germans
moving down the Haucourt-Bethin-
court line attacked the French posi-.
tons south of the FORCES brook. Here
they faced the full fury Of the French
guns, which cost them heavy losses.
French Lines Hold Firm
The French front along the strategic
sector extending from LIE More
Homme to Cumieres remained I'M

it by assault were arrested by the

The French still hold their positions

been directed daily.

Wild Reports Circulated.


The only real basis for any appre-
hension here that is discoverable is
the fact that a number of villistas and
other representatives of the anti
American faction in Mexico are spread
ing the widest reports among the Pc
ons and soldiers in Juarez in the hope
of causing an outbreak. Juarez Is
seething with the widest stories of
the hostile intentions Il the Ameri
cans and rumors of great Victories
over the United States soldiers won
by Villa.
The Carranza officials are doing
their best to suppress these stories.
That the alarmists are not receiving
much credence among the American
refugees here is evidenced by the fact
that number of the latter have al
ready returned and others are prepar-
ing to do so.
