NOT HALF A CROP
Five Million Acres of Wheat in
Kansas Ruined.
Ninety Per Cent of Crop Aban-
dOned in Some Counties.
E. J. SMILEY MAKES REPORT
Big Grain Belt Hit Hardest by
the Long DrOuth.
Shawnee Co. Farmers May Get
so Per Cent Normal Yield.

Only 100000 of the 100000 acres
of wheat in Kansas will be harvested,
according to E. j. Smiley, secretary of
the Kansas Grain Dealers association.
Smiley has returned from a trip thru
the Kansas wheat belt and describes
wheat conditions worse than he has
found them in twenty-one years.
In the west half of PottawatQmie
and Shawnee counties, Smiley believes
farmers will harvest from so to 60 per
cent of the crop if good weather condi-
lions prevail. In Riley, Clay, Cloud,
Republic, Jewell, Smith and Phillips
counties, he found 80 per cent of the
crop gone and the remaining 20 per
cent thin on the ground and low in vi
tality, demanding the most perfect
weather conditions. In Norton and De-
catur counties, not to exceed one
third of the crop has been abandoned.
Other Counties Short.
Smiley found 80 per cent of the
wheat fields abandoned in Graham,
Trego and Ellis counties. In Russell
county late rains have given the wheat
a start and Smiley believes one-half
the crop may be saved. In Ellsworth
county he found rs per cent of the
wheat acreage abandoned. Smiley be-
lieves so per cent of the wheat in Sa-
line and Dickinson counties may be
saved while in Geary county so per
cent of the acreage has been aban-
duned. Reports received by Smiley
indicate that conditions in Osborne
Ottawa, Mitchell and Rocks counties
are fully as bad as in the northern tier
of counties.
Today Smiley sent out circular let
tiers to all members of the associa ton
He asks them the following questions
concerning wheat conditions in their
territories:
What is the estimated acreage of
wheat planted last fall?
What per cent of the acreage has
been bandoned?
What is the condition of the remain
ing acreage?
What per cent of the 1916 crop is
stored in country elevators?

AT THE HIGH MARK
Car Shortage Reached 124,973
on First Day of March.
These the Highest Figures Rail-
roads Have on Record.
STRIKE PREVENTED CLEANUP
Shippers in the West Beginning
to Suffer Now.
Santa Fe Has Ordered 500 New
Cars to Help Situation.

The net shortage of freight cars in
the United States, March l, totaled
124.9T3, the largest on record for that
date and an increase of $4,000 over
the month previous. A statement
reaching Topeka today from the car
service commission of the American
railways association shows that de-
spite the approach of that time of the
year when the situation has always
heretofore been practically relieved,
the condition today is the worst on
record. The shortage March II was
by far larger than on November l,
1915.
March 10 the shortage totaled
1894 cars and March II the number
had jumped to 12S,107, nearly 5000
more than on March l. One of the
main reasons for this increase is said
to be the threatened railroad strike

UNDER AMERICAN FLAG
Z. S. Aviators in France Plan to Fly
Stars and Stripes.

Washington, April 4.-Old Glory will
take it's place with the flags of the
League of honor over the battle line
in France within a few days, accord
ing to indications here today.
1t was estimated that plan was on
foot to bring into the service of their
own country the American aviators
in the Franco-American flying corps
now serving in northern France.
According to the proposal which is
before government officials the
American flyers will be sent to Paris,
there to take before a member of the
United States embassy most probably
Mr.. William Graves Sharp, himself,
the American oath of enlistment.
They would then go back to the
front in the service of their own coun-
try and the stars and stripes would
fly from the guy poles of their aero
planes, high above the battlements.

Against "Prussian Bully"
BY LORD NoRTHCLIF'EE.

London, April fl have taken a
few hours to collect the opinions of
members of both houses of parliament
and many of the general public
Experts in craftsmanship regard the
presidents speech as likely to rank
with the most notable utterances of
Washington and Lincoln. Its dignity,
restraint and insight are considered
absolutely worthy of the chief of a
hundred million OF the republics citi-
zens at this tremendous moment.
The joining with the allies by the
United States is especially welcomed
by Englishmen who are fighting side
by side with the heroic French.
We regard the coming in of Uncle
in Frances fight against the Prussian
bully.
Aim to Crush France and Belgium.
We will be able to take care of our
own part of the war on land, on sea,
in munitions plants and in the treas
ury, but the territories of France and
Belgium have been chosen by the
Hohenzollerns as their battle-ground
for the conquest of the world, and it
is fitting that we of the free English
speaking natiOnS"AmericanS British,
Canadians, Australians, New Zealand
ers, South Africans-should combine
with Russia and with Italy to rid the
world of kaiSerism-just as the Rus
sian people united against their domi-

States is the greatest event in the his
tory of the war since August, 1914.

which, despite the fact it was averted,
resulted in roads placing nationwide
embargoes. In making its report the
railways association says:
Accumulation Reduced.
"On March 10 the railroads were
just beginning to feel the effects of
cleanup week, during which time
every effort was made to rid the rails
of freight billed prior to February l.
Accommodations have been brought
down from 171,000 cars to less than
100000 and it was expected more
progress would be made the week end
ing March II. The threatened strike,
however, caused the placing of such
drastic embargoes that Accommodations
increased rapidly"
The commission. in handing down
the report, declared that half the cars
accumulated March II We're held in
territory east of the Mississippi and
that north of the Ohio. The roads
holding the cars include the Baltimore
&, Ohio, the Pennsylvania, the New

ways.
Feel Pinch Here.
Western shippers. it was reported
here today, are beginning to feel an
increased tension on railroads in this
part of the country. Kansas railway
officials declare the shortage here is
caused by eastern roads holding their
cars and have placed embargoes
against shipments with destination
east of the Chicago gateway. Some

western roads to overcome the short
age by buying new cars and increas-
ing their rolling stock.
