From three to five acres scwn in

1881 0G0 acres OF whea; in he U. S.
in 1G17-191S To DO her hare Geor-
gia must sew 100000 acres which is
an increase of 100 per cent Cv7r her
average Of last year.
The c--crage yie'd of wheat for
Georgia Is very low IN fact, the av-
ere Sc 20" tlc last ten years is only
1917 ushels per acre. A this rate
GeC"ci' should produce reXt year
with the increased acreage S,410 200
bushels { wheat. which is about one
r.illion less han VIC normally con-
sumo
The average consumption of wheat
per capita in the United States is
about IA bushels. While this figure
may be a little high in the southern
states where corn bread is substituted
for wheat flour still il will serve as
basis for calculating the needs of the
average family.
While three to five acres will sup
ply the average family still it is urg
ed that farmers in sections of the
state where wheat can be profitably
grown sow larger areas. In recon-
mending this large increase in the
WllGU. dCIedSe OIlCldlS HAVE tdhell
into account the crop rotation on the
farm, which should be maintained in
the interest of spring planted crops.
The Wheat Week movement will
be conducted in the counties by the
County Agents of the State College
Of Agriculture who are in close touch
with the farmer and know something
of his problems. Much work has been
done by representatives of the Col
1ege in procuring seed and their treat
ment against disease. They are in
position to advise as to the best
methods of soil preparation, planting
and fertilizing.
