of almost il million acres in the rye
acreage is called for with II total of
5l31, 900 acres.
Billion Bushels Expected.
The increased winter wheat acreag"
should produce 672,ooo,o0o bushels on
the basis of lo-year average Yields.
With conditions similar to those of the
record winter wheat year in 1911 the
acreage should produce 100000
bushels. A spring wheat crop of the
l0-year average would be Pol, ,0OA, 900
bushels and with conditions equal to
that of the record spring wheat year,
1915. it would reach 350,o0OOOO bushels,
if an acreage equal to this years is
planted.
Effort has been made to recommend
in each state as large an acreage in
wheat and rye as can be soWn without
upsetting proper farm practice.
