Bureau OF Crop Estimates

today issued its report on grain
still on the farms March !, 1918
and the amount shipped out of
the county where grown.
AS there has been so much
speculation relative to the keep
ing quality of corn on the farms
it is interesting to note that the
report shows l9,SOO,OO0 bus. still
on the farms in Minnesota,
March l, 1918 compared with
100000 bus. one year ago and
9,O16,OOO two years ago.
There was a concerted effort
made not only to feed as much
soft corn as possible on account
of the poor keeping quality but
to ship corn to markets where
it could he dried and thus con.
served. However, there was a
good deal of corn of fair keeping
quality in the southwestern part
of the state. The report for the
United States is 1922, ,9O5, ,OOC
bus. compared with 1922 ,OOC
bus. one year ago and 1,116,559.
600 bus. two years ago.
The report indicates that
there is a fair amount of wheat
still in farmers hands in this
state, the amount being esti.
mated at 100000 bus. com.
pared with 5,546.00O bus. one
year ago and 1884, 900 bus. two
years ago. This reserve is not
because farmers are holding back
wheat but in past years a good
deal was stored in country ele-
vators which is not now per.
missible.
While there is still consider.
able corn held in farmers hands
the merchantable quality is low
being only 37%o for Minnesota on
March |, this year compared
with 1870 last year and 1870 two
years ago. The report for the
United States is for Mar. / this
year 60.3% compared to 83.9Te
one year ago and 71.1%o two
years ago.
For the United States it is
estimated that on Mar. | this
year there were III, ,272,OOO bus
Of wheat still on the farms, com.
pared with 1OO,65O,OOO bus. one
year ago and 244,44S,0OO bus
two years ago.
With the poor keeping quality
of corn in this state, oats are
being retained for spring feed.
ing even in the face Of high
prices. For Minnesota the
amount is estimated to be
a., $4,000 bus. this year as com.
pared to 26,196,OOO bus. last year
and 56,857,OOO bus. two years
ago. For the United States it is
estimated there are sos, ,195, ,OOO
bus. this year compared with
394,211,OOO bus. last year and
598, 148,OOO bus. two years ago.
High prices have induced far
mers to market barley but indi-
cations are that they are not alb
normally greater than in ordi-
nary years. There is no doubt
more being held back for seed
than in ordinary years. 1t is
estimated that on Mar. 1, this
there were $4,000 bus. on
farms in Minnesota compared to
5,748,0O0 bus. last year and
10,675, 900 bus. two years ago.
For the United States 43,404, 900
bus this year compared to SO, ,244-
900 bus last year and 58,3O1, 900
bus two years ago.

RED CROSS NOTES OF PINE
COUNTY

The Pine County Chapter de-
sires to aid in the correspond
ence to our soldiers and asks all
those who have boys at the front
and in cantonments to request
them to send home the names of
any comrades who have no CORE
spondence and the Chapter will
see that they are assigned to
members of the organization in
various parts of the county who
will remember them with letters
and cards.
Junior Red Cross organizations
are asked to send their monthly
reports in promptly. Also to
send in all finished articles to
Mrs. Carrie Buttrick, Chairman
M. r. Com, at Hinckley. MINI.
Schools that have not yet or
ganized the Junior Red Cross are
urged to do so at once. Altho
there is not much time left in
the school year for actual work
pupils can enjoy the honor of
wearing the Red Cross buttons
and teachers can conduct a brief
Red Cross discussion one after
noon of each week and teach pa
triotism and enthusiasm for the
work.
The County Chairman, DR..
Stephan, suggests that those who
knit socks and sweaters put
their address on the finished ar
ticle as the American boys ap-
preciate the personal influence
Of the "Giver with the Gift"
Many of them have no friends to
send letters and gifts and feel
lonely and forgotten. Imagine
the JOY of convalescent soldier
in hospital in France, finding a
card in his sock with an Ameri-
can name and address in good
old yankee hand writing. Don't
you think home would feel very
close at that moment.
Next week is the time set for
collecting used garments for
the Belgian men, women, bows
girls and infants. These articles
must be of sufficient value to be
worth paying transportation on
across the sea. They need not
be mended as that will be done
by the women "over there" but
they must be clean and substan-
tial. Send your contribution of
articles to your nearest Branch
or Auxiliary and they will for
ward to the Chapter before the
25th inst.
