 California's beet sugar yield will reach 1,770,000 tons, gain of 330, 900 tons. Utah will also make a high record.
 The production of rice in Califor- mia which was valued at $10,000 in 1912 will reach a value of $S,000,00 this year.
 The apple crop in the State of Washington will equal last years yield of over 1O,000,000 bushels, but in Oregon and California the produc- tion will be slightly less.
 Approximately 200,O00,000 pounds of prunes will be dried in California this season compared with 130,000,- 900 pounds last year.
 Utah has record yields of hay and potatoes as well as of sugar beets and in it's mining output.
 California's production of peaches this year is estimated at 1O,19O,O00 bushels, an increase of more than 100000 bushels over 1916

CROP DAMAGE IS
 EXAGGERATED BY
 FIRST REPORTS

LONDON, Oct. 4. - An official statement from the Food Production Department gives a reassuring view of the harvest prospects in the Brit ish Isles, and by way of contrast, a summary of the gloomy situation in enemy countries.
 In England. it is stated, recent re- ports of damage from rain and storm were heavily exaggerated. While the recent storms damaged crops in some areas, there is. speaking gen orally, not the slightest ground for public anxiety or alarm" says the statement.
 In Germany on the other hand, the information received by the Brit ish agricultural authorities is that the crops are not only exceedingly bad in the best areas in the German Empire. but the whole harvest of the Central Powers will in all prob ability prove disastrous in conse- uuence of the violent weather which has prevailed over Western Europe V
