From present indications the COM
bined winter wheat and rye harvest
will be 400. 200 600 bushels, compared
with 529,127 900 bushels for those crops
last year.
Winter wheat was sown last autumn
on 40,090.000 acres which is close to
the largest acreage on record. The
crop had bad start in the important
growing states and entered winter in
poor condition. Insufficient snow COW
ering during the winter and dry and
windy weather killed much of it.
Much of the abandoned acreage viii
be planted to corn in the southern part
of the belt and to spring wheat in the
northern. Prevailing high prices for
wheat are expected to spur farmers to
place a larger acreage under spring
wheat, and officials look for a record
crop of that cereal.
Secretary Houston again tonight APP
pealed to the country to make every eff
fort to raise adequate food crops this
year not only for the United States
needs. but to meet requirements of the
entente.
The Importance to the nation of a
generous food supply for the coming
year can not be over emphasized in
view of the economic problems which
may arise as result of the entrance
to the United States into the war" said
the secretary. Every effort should be
made to produce more crops than are
needed for our own requirements.

since European production cannot be

1t is obvious that the greatest and
most important service required OF our
agriculture under existing copoCipns Is

food crops. Because Of the shortage OF
such crops practically throughout the
world, there is 10 risk III the near fu-

The most effective step that may lie
taken to increase the production Of
these crops is to enlarge the acreage
devoted to them in the regions where
they are grown habitually. This eX-
pansion of acreage should he to the

rule is to omit stories when in doubt
as to whether they conflict with regu-

obligatory, but are merely a war time

test of the series by a to verdict.
Although the local., outbatted the
Virginians, the latter punched their
hits at opportune times and brought
home the bacon. The Birds made a
desperate attempt to tie the count In
the seventh, but Hack Eibel on the
firing line for the boys from Dixie
frightened up, and when the dust
cleared away the home team was one
shy of the necessary runs to make it
even all around. Dan Triple, the
moustached pitcher, adorned the
mound for Baltimore for five innings.
but his assortment of wares did pot
puzzle the artillery of the enemy very
long. and he gave way to Fewton.
who held them safe with exception
of the seventh inning. EibeI kept his
hits well scattered except in the be-
fore mentioned seventh. and never
was in really serious danger, although
he was nicked for twelve safeties,
Fewster, Of the Birds, garnered three
of them, while Acosta, Lamar and
Barber bingled safely twice. Hanford
and McGaffigan also connected twice,
and the latter stole two bases. By
the defeat today, and Toronto's vic
tory, the Birds dropped to fourth
place.

cal team in a double header tomorrow.
