General Funston last night received a

The news evidently amused General

" by sick kidneys A change for the
better will be seen after the first few
doses of Solvax and its continued use

You breathe Hyomei through the

(Hyman H. Cohen in Sunday Journal)
All over the world the 1916 wheat
crop promises to show most serious
decrease from that of 1915.
In most sections Of the world the
decreased production outlook is due TO
the falling off In the area planted to
this cereal, but in many instances the
crop has passed through the winter
with very liberal amount Of winter
killing of plants and other damage.
In the Pacific northwest the condi-
ton Of the crop is most excellent and
better than an average yield per acre
Is the present outlook. Notwithstand-
ing this the total production Of wheat
in Oregon, Idaho and Washington now
promises to show a decrease from
1915. There is very material de-
crease in the acreage. This is the
leading reason for the expected drop
in the otal volume expected during
the coming harvest.
While previous to the cold snap 1t
was believed that the crop would
move above that of 1915. even though
the acreage of winter planting was
somewhat less than a year ago, a con-
siderable amount Of seeded land was
winter killed and the returns receiv-
cd at this time indicate that the
spring planting will prove one of the
smallest In years so far as wheat is
concerned. A considerable portion of
the land usually sown to wheat will
be planted in oats but accurate reports
regarding this are not vet obtainable.
From over 200 special crop corre-
spondents located in practically every
growing district in the northwest, re-
turns indicate that the area of winter
wheat available at this time for the
coming harvest is showing a total of
but 2.075000 acres, compared with a
showing at this time in 1915 of o.
100000 acres.
The spring planting returns of the
three states indicate a total area of
100000 acres. compared with l.
800, 600 acres in 1915. Therefore the
total spring are planted is showing a
heavy decrease from a year ago in
stead of the increase expected earlier
as a result Of the smaller fall sowing,
Total area planted to wheat in the
three states for the 1915 crop reaches
3,315,0 600 acres. compared with $780,
600 acres in 1915 and S,62S,00O acres
in 1914. Therefore the present crop
area is the smallest in three years.
On the face of these figures of the
wheat acreage it would look as If the
Pacific northwest is doomed to pro-
duce one Of the smallest wheat crops
n many years. This is rather severe
and is not exactly the fact. The con-
dition of the planting is somewhat
better than normal in the three states,
This is especially true of the light land
sections which this season have appa-
rently an overabundance Of moisture.
