Billion Bushels More.

A billion bushels increase over last
years production in the principal food
crops Is the response American farmers
have made TO President Wilson's mid
April appeal, saying that upon them rests
the fate Of the war and the fate Of ma
tons"
The extent Of the farmers response was
disclosed Monday when a production Of
6.093,000.000 bushel Of principal food
crops was forecast in the Department Of
Agriculture's July crop report 1t shows
this years corn crop will be the largest in
history, except one. and that four, and
possibly five. other crops will make new
high records.
The corn crop. which with favorable
weather from now on may equal the
bumper yield Of 1912. shows an increase
Of 54l.000.000 bushels over last year,
with a total Of 3.124.0OO. 900 bushels.
The acreage is IL per cent larger than
last year.
The combined winter and spring wheat
crop will be 100000 bushels more than
last years, with total of $4,000. 900
bushels
Barley with prospects of the third
largest crop ever grown. will exceed last
years production by 100000 bushels.
Oats promise to exceed last years crop
by 20l.000.000 bushels. the total produc-
ton being forecast at l.453.O00. 900
bushels. That is slightly under the record j..
Improvement between now and harvest,
however, may result in record crop
White potato production. on a % l-2
per cent increase in acreage, will be a
record crop. with 452.00O,0O0 bushels
or i67.000.000 bushels more than last
year. not taking into account the home
garden production. which this year is esti-
mated to be much larger than ever before.
Rye. another record crop this year. will
amount to 56.l00,00O bushels or $780,
900 bushels more than last year.
Sweet potatoes will register a new hieh
total. with S2.20O.00O bushels or 1000
bushels more than last year.
Rice production viii be 34.400. 900
bushels. the second largest crop ever pro-
duced.
Production Of tobacco viii break another
record, with crop of .215. 900. 900 pounds,
which is 64.000.000 pounds more than
were grown last year

Reed Law Hits CoHnties.

Residents Of dry counties In Maryland
will be interested in an opinion given by
United States District Attorney Samuel X.
Dennis that the Reed amendment adopted
by Congress and which became effective
on July LIST applies to all such places.
Those who violate the Federal act in
this State by transporting liquor in inter-
state commerce, except within the excep-
tons provided in the act. will be prose-
cuted in the United States Court in Balti-
more
The opinion Of Mr.. Dennis was sent to
Toadvin & Bell. lawyers. of Salisbury, Md,
In reply to letter from them. Mr.. Dennis
first referred to the act of the Legislature
Of 1908 making II unlawful to manufac-
ture or sell intoxicating liquors in any
quantity in Wicomico county. and then to
the provision Of the Reed amendment,
that no intoxicating liquor shall be trans
ported in interstate commerce into any
State or Territory the laws Of which pro-
hibit the manufacture or sale therein of
intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes,
except for scientific, sacramental, medici-
nal and mechanical purposes.
Continuing, Mr.. Dennis said in his opin-
ion:
Constituting these two statutes together.
as they should be, the conclusion Is ire
sistible that 1t Is an offense under the
Federal statute above quoted to ship liquor
in any quantity in interstate commerce to
Wicomico county, except for scientific, sac
ramental, medicinal or mechanical pur-
poses. Notwithstanding the provisions Of
the gallon a month law Chapter 83l,
Acts of l9l4.).
while there is no State statute pro-
hibiting generally the sale or manufacture
Of liquor. ETC.. in the State Of Maryland for
beverage purposes, am Of the opinion
that your local law prohibiting such sale
or manufacture is entirely sufficient to
bring your county within the restrictions
as to shipment In interstate commerce, OF
the Federal statute above quoted. OF
course, the same reasoning and the same
policy will apply to other counties having
local laws prohibiting such sale or manu-
facture.
Hence this Office will undertake the
prosecution Of all persons within the juris.
diction Of this court who order. purchase
or cause intoxicating liquors to be trans
ported In interstate commerce 10 Wicomico
or other counties having similar prohbi.
tion laws as to sale and manufacture ETC.
provided, of course. the evidence is rea-
sonably satisfactory"

Embargo On Food Now A Grim Fact

The long discussed food embargo of neu-
trail nations has become fact. President
Wilson on Monday issued proclamation
stating that a long list Of articles. which
are named, shall not, on and after the
18th Of July. 1917. be carried out Of or
exported from the United States or its
territorial possessions. to neutral countries.
The Presidents statement is as follows:
In controlling by license the export Of
certain indispensable commodities from the
United States. the Government has first
and chiefly in view the amelioration Of the
food conditions which have arisen or are
likely TO arise in our own country before
new crops are harvested Not only is the
conservation Of our prime food and fodder
supplies a matter which vitality concerns
our own people. but the retention Of an
adequate supply Of raw materials is essen
tial to our program Of military and naval
construction and the continuance of our
necessary domestic activities. We shall.
therefore. similarly safeguard all our fun
damental supplies
ut is obviously the duty Of the United
States in liberatine any surplus products
over and above our own domestic needs to
consider first the necessities Of all nations
engaged In war against the central En-
pires. As to neutral nations, however. we
also recognize our duty. The Government
does not wish to hamper them. On the
contrary. 1t wishes and intends. by all fair
and equitable means. to cooperate with
them in their difficult task Of adding from
our available SURPRISES to their own do
nestle supply and Of meeting their press
ing necessities or deficits. In considering
he deficits Of food supplies. the Govern
