the country and the Allies for the

felt because of unfavorable weather
conditions in various parts of the
country.
In June a crop of 100000 bush
els of wheat was forecast, but in July
il was estimated to have lost 10000

was placed at S91,000,000 bushels
That is 241 100000 bushels more than

bushels more than the average wheat
crop for the five years 1926.
The first estimate of the great corn

would be a record one. but only
