SERIOUS SETBACK
FOR WINTER WHEAT
Indications Point to Only About Half
of What the Government Had Pre-
dicted Earlier.

ASHINGTON, Dec. Achievement
plans for Il billion-bushel wheat crop next
year TO help the United States feed its
allies have received setback. 1t was
disclosed yesterday by the December crop
report OF the department of agriculture
that while winter wheat was planted on
the largest acreage ever sown to that
cereal its condition on December ! was
the lowest on record for the date.
y winter crop Of 540000,000 bushels
was forecast by the bureau of crop es-
Inmates. The actual production will be
greater or less than that quantity accord
ing as conditions hereafter are better or
worse than average Through a great
spring crop it still is hoped to bring the
years total to somewhere near the billion
mark.
An area Of more than 100000 acres
was the mark set by the government for
farmers to plant to winter wheat this fall,
but the December canvass shows that
~, 10000 acres We're sown. The farmers
did their best, department Of agriculture
officials said, but conditions were against
them The very dry weather in most OF
the winter wheat belt was q large draw
back, while late harvest of other crops
and shortage OF farm help were contTlDut
ing causes for the failure
Should the winter wheat crop mature tc
so, 900 bushels as forecast yesterday
il would be the third largest Of record
! being exceeded only BY the crops OF 1911
and 1915 Government officials had fig
ured on having winter wheat production
! reach 672, 100000 bushels but today's fore
| east indicates that it will fall l32 ,000,o
bushels short OF that figure. Indication
are that rye production will be 25,000,00-
bushels larger than last years RECORD

How the Ancients Bathed.

Ancient Rome is said to have con-
sumed no less than 34O.OOOO00 gallons
Of water day, and one of the most
noticeable features of the modern
town is the prodigal effervescence of
it's water. gushing from fountains of
every conceivable size and design. The
Trevi is the most magnificent in the
city, its waters Called Aqua Vergine,
virgin water, because OF it's purity
the finest. The old Roman baths re-
quired a lot Of water. The splendid
Thermae. built by the degenerate EN-
peror Caracaila. had accommoda tons
for LOGO bathers. Besides the baths
proper the establishment included
within It's area Of about a quarter of
mile square gymnasium. athletic
field. library and even race track

Heine Made Goethe Smile.

When visited Goethe, in Weimar,
and stood before him 1 involuntarily
glanced at his side to see whether the
eagle was not there with the lightning
in his beak. l was nearly speaking
Greek to him; but, as 1 observed that
he understood German, l stated to him
in German that the plums on the road
between Jena and Weimar were very
good. 1 had for so many long winter
nights thought over what lofty and
profound things would say to Goethe
if ever l saw him. And when 1 saw
him at last ! said to him that the Sax
on plums were very good!
And Goethe smiled.-Heinrich Heine.
