WHEAT CROP
BREAKS RECORD
An Estimate Of 637,OOO,OOO.
Bushels For Year.
:
THE LARGEST EVER GROWN
The Value of Winter Variety at Guar
anteed Price of $2.26 is Placed at
1891 $4,000.

Washington, April e.-The largest
crop Of winter wheat ever grown was
forecast for this year by the depart
ment of agriculture, basing its esti-
mate on conditions existing April 1.
The enormous yield Of S37, 100000
bushels was announced, which at the
governments guaranteed price of
1925 bushel places the crops value
at S1,S91 100000.
This years crop, if no unfavorable
conditions develop between now and
the time of harvest, will be 152, ,000,0 900
bushels larger than the previous record
crop produced in 1914 and 21S,0O0,000
bushels more than was grown last
year.
Production of winter wheat last
year was 55S, S,449,O0O bushels. In 1917
it was 412,901, 900 bushels In 1917 it
was 412,901, 900 bushels. The record
crop Of 6S4,9eO,OOO bushels was pro-
duced in 1914.
The condition of the crop April 1,
last year, was 1876 per cent of a nor
NAL, while in 1917 it was 63.4, and the
average Of the last ten years was
S2.3.
There was an increase in condition
from December 1 last year to April 1
this year Of IL points, with an aver
age decline in the last ten years Of So
points between those dates.
The forecast of production of winter
wheat this year is based on the as
sumption of average abandonment Of
acreage and average influences on the
crop to harvest.
The condition Of winter wheat April
1 by important producing states fol-
lows:
Kansas, 101; Nebraska, 81; Oklaho-
ma, 100; Illinois, 101; Missouri, 103 !;
Indiana, 100; Ohio, 1O4; Washington,
OF; Pennsylvania, 100: Virginia, 81 {;
North Carolina, 96
The department of agriculture issu-
ed a statement commenting upon con-
ditions, saying:
"Ninety-nine and eight-tenths per
cent is the highest percentage on
record, on the largest acreage ever
planted in this country The condition
improved during the winter, an unus-
ual occurrence, due to the very fa
vorable winter weather. particularly
the absence of alternate freezing and,
thawing, which appears although to
have resulted in minimum of winter
killing.
ga striking feature of the present
situation is a uniformity good condi-
tion in practically all importan wheat
producing states, ranging from 104 in
Ohio down to 96 in North Carolina,
among the states having one million
acres or more The lowest figures re-
ported from any state is GO in Wiscon-
sin, Kansas, with approximately H.
100000 out of the United States total
of 100000 acres shows a condition
of 1O1. The present moisture condi-
tions throughout the entire country,
with unimportant local exceptions are
very favorable.

Changes In Estate Tax Law

provisional regulations covering
changes in the estate tax were an
nounced yesterday at the Internal
Revenue Office. There were adopted
oy the committee, of which Mr.. CIar-
ence Miles, head of the division in
the Maryland District, was a mem
Der. They are of primary lmpor-
tance, affecting as they do bequests
and gifts of eve.y description. They
are effective as OF February 25,
1919, the day OH which the revenue
act was signed.
The rates of tax have been changed
materially, there being a decrease so
far as smaller estates are concerned.
Up to $450,000 the tax is the same
as by act of 1916, when first impos-
ed, and very much lower than by
act of 1917. Beginning with half a
million they are higher than in the
original law, but much less than
last year; from $2,000,000 upward
however, they are the same as in
1917.
In addition to establishing new
rates, the act provides that the taxes
imposed shall not apply to the trans
fer of the net estate of any decedent
who has died or may die while serv-
ing in the military or naval forces
nj 10 tot IN,
war, or from Injuries received or dis
ease contracted while in such SER
vice, and that any tax collected upon
Such transfer shall be refunded to
the executor. The term military or
naval forces of the United States''in-
cludes the Marine Coorps, Army
Nurse Corps (female) and the Navy
Nurse Corps (female), but this shall
not be deemed to exclude other units
otherwise included within such term.
1t will be noted that this provision
is retroactive ann covers those cases
in which the estate tax has already
been collected. In any such case
where the tax has been paid by the
executor of the estate of a decedent
coming within the provisions of this
section, formal claim for refund
should be submitted, necessary proof
being forthcoming.
A new provision has been added,
including in the gross estate of the
decedent the amount receivable by
the executor as insurance under poll
cies taken out by the decedent upon
his own life, and to the extent of
the excess over $4,000 of the
amount receivable by all benefici-
aries as insurance under policies ta-
ken out by the decedent upon his
own life. The first portion OF this
amendment is il accordance with the
present ruling on the subject, but
the inclusion of the excess of insur-
ance $4,000 that is receivable by
benefciaries other than the eXecu-
tor is a change in the law, no such
provision being included in the pre-
yious acts. The word beneficiary"
as used IN this paragraph relates
solely to a beneficiary of an insur-
ance policy.
The provision in which the Johns
Hopkins University is particularly
interested has to do with thu exemp
tion of charitable, public or philan-
thropic bequests. This law is ret
roactive and deductions may be made
in the case of estates of decedents
who have died since December 81,
1911.
The provision in the original law
a discount of five per cent.
for advance payment has been strick-
en- from the law and no discount can
now be ermitted.-From Baltimore
