Billion Bushel
Wheat Crop Is
Planned for 1918
Government Cooperating
With State Officials to In
sure Record Acreage

WASHINGTON, Aug. s.-Productior
Of over one billion bushels Of wheat
and over eighty-three million bushels
of rye, through the planting of AZ $751;
900 acres to winter wheat and of 5,l31,-
600 acres to rye this fall, is the imme-
date war agricultural programme for
the nation, announced to-day by David
F. Houston, Secretary of Agriculture.
This record winter wheat acreage, an
increase of Is per cent over last year,
would yield s72,OO0,oOo bushels IL the
average yield for the last ten years is
equalled, or under a repetition Of the
favorable conditions of 1914 would give
sSO,OOO,0O0 bushels. In either case
with a spring wheat crop next year
equal to that of 1915, the nation will
have more than one billion bushels Of
wheat for domestic use and export.
This vastly increased production Of
wheat, needed in any case, will be abb
solutely essential 70 prevent a serious
shortage Of breadstuffs next summer
should the growing corn, now behind
the season, be much damaged by early
frosts.
Effort has been made to recommend
in each state about as large an acreage
in wheat and rye as can be sown with
out upsetting proper farm practices,
which must De maintained in the in
terest Of wheat and rye crops in this
and succeeding years, as well as in the
interest of other necessary spring
planted crops, which are not discussed
in detail at this time, as they are not
food crops in which marked shortage
exists.
The estimates, the department states,
are made with the knowledge that there
is some shortage Of the fertilizer supply,
but with the understanding that there
will be no general shortage in the sup
ply of seed or of farm machinery which
is necessary in the production OF the
wheat crop. IL Is understood, also, that
ample transportation facilities will be
provided and a fair price Of wheat will
be established. These factors have
been assumed as fixed and satisfactory.
II any one or more fail TO be adjusted
in good time, no person can tell how
serious will be the effect on the total
crop.
The planting and cultivation Of these
increased acresges Of fsll-sown grains
calls for unusual effort on the part of the
farmers. Plans to place at the disposal
of farmers all assistance possible are
being perfected in the United States
Department of Agriculture, the state
colleges Of agriculture and other state
and local agencies which cooperate in
farming matters. The assistance Of
successful growers of wheat and rye
in a campaign to turn out bumper crops

State officials Cooperate

The state officials will do their ut
most to get the acreages expected Of
their states into the ground. The pro-
gramme as originally worked out by
the Federal Department of Agriculture
called for somewhat more than 44,000,-
600 acres 10 be sown this fall. When
this proposal was presented to the Off
Gals of the several states a further in
crease was considered possible and de-
sirable by them. AS a consequence, the
recommendation for the sowing of A.
$4,000 acres is made.

partment's recommendations regarding
winter wheat and rye:
The planting OF approximately A.
1000 acres to winter wheat, on the
basis of an average yield for the last
ten years indicates a total production
of 672,000,000 bushels, which eX-
ceeds all previous winter wheat crops
harvested in the United States, with
the exception of the crops of 1914 and
1915, when the acreages harvested and
yields per acre were both above nor
nal. II the extremely favorable con-
ditions under which the winter wheat
crop of 1914 was grown are again eN-
perienced, the yield Of winter wheat
next year will be SS0,000,000 bushels,
or By far the largest winter wheat
crop ever produced, and even larger
than the total of both winter and
spring wheat crops for all last years
except two.
II is too early to determine the area
which should be sown 70 wheat next
spring, but if this is equal to that sown
in the spring of 1917, or 100000
acres, and the yield is up TO the aver
age of the last ten years, crop OF
25l 100000 bushels Of spring wheat will
be harvested, and if the yield per acre
should equal that obtained in 1915 the
crop will be 35O,OOO,OO0 bushels, the
same as the greatest spring wheat crop
ever produced Thus, with no increase
in the spring wheat acreage, but with
the Is per cent increase over the 1915
winter wheat sowings planned for this
fall, the total wheat crop next year
will be more than 100000 900 bushels,
if the crop meets with slightly better
than ten-year average conditions.
With extremely favorable conditions,
such as were experienced by the win
ter wheat crop in 1914 and the spring
wheat crop in 1915, the total yield
would amount 70 one and quarter
billion bushels. A 10 per cent increase
in spring wheat acreage with favorable
growing conditions would add another
80 10000 bushels. The figures quoted
above are based upon a winter killing
of 9 per cent and yields per acre OF
1916 bushels for winter wheat and 49,
bushels for spring wheat, the average
for the last ten years, and a yleld'per
acre in 1914 of 10 bushels OF winter
wheat and 1874 bushels Of spring wheat
in 1915.

Trade reports covering conditions dur
ing the last month indicate a some
what smaller volume of business among
retail merchants throughout the state
than in the corresponding month last
year although higher prices have tend
ed to keep total receipts about the
same. Manufacturers, as whole, re-
port heavy production and consider
able amount of future business in sight
with the scarcity of labor one of the
biggest troubles. In the marble and
granite industries the demand for stone
for building purposes is comparatively
light, but machine plants of all kinds
