GERMANY NOW FACES
Big CROP SHORTAGE
Heavy Drouth Reported Dis.
couraging Most Optimistic;
Food Rations Are Again
Reduced.

Copenhagen (Via London), June l6.
Official admission of food difficult
ties in Germany resulting from a
shortage OF potatoes and the in
adequacy OF grain stocks to afford a
supplementary bread ration, is made
in an announcement OF the food con.
troll department. 4.
The announcement states that the
hve-pound potato ration, which has
long been only official fiction, will
hereafter be abandoned, and that
while an attempt will be made to sup
ply bread in the place of potatoes, the
quantity must be reduced.
The Berliner Tageblatt reports,
aftr having made inquiries, that two
or at highest three pounds of potatoes
weekly is all that can be supplied until
new potatoes are available in mid
July, and that instead of 40 grammes
OF bread, hitherto supplied as sub
stitute for each failing pound Of
potatoes, only seventy grammes, or
less than two and one-fialf ounces can
be furnished hereafter.
The Tageblatts statements regard
ing possible potato rations are inter-
pretable as erring, if anything, on the
optimistic side.
Drouth Is Threatening.
Prospect for the grain crop are be-
coming dark owing to the long con-
tinued drouth. A few showers fell the
first Of this month, but the amount OF
rain fall is quite inadequate and for
a fortnight the German weather re-
ports from all parts of the empire
have reported naught but cloudless
or slightly cloudy skies.
There has been no precipitation or
at most only an occasional and
isolated millmeter of rainfall ard
high summer temperatures prevail.
These conditions on the light sandy
soil in large part of Germany are
conditions most dreaded by the farm
,rs. With such season the crop ex-
Derts, who fortnight ago were say
ing that with plenty of rain an aver
age crop could be expected have of
ate discontinued discussion of an ap-
oarently unpleasant topic.
