In biIiousness, constipation, head
aches and indigestion, and in great
variety of liver. stomach and kidney

BIG WHEAT CROP
Forecast 109,275,000 BusheI
Yield in Kansas This Year.
To Exceed Hundred Million
Fifth Time in Seven Years.
ZIG Per CENT U. S. CROP
Barley Acreage Second Largest
in States History.
Corn Shows Good Stands, Says
PaxtOn's June Report.

On June first and within three
weeks of the beginning of harvest, the
Kansas wheat outlook offers a pros
pect of 1O9,275, 900 bushels, or a fore
casted yield of 14.11 bushels per acre
on 7,725,O00 acres of winter wheat.
and a yield of lis bushels per acre on
$4,000 acres of spring wheat. accord
ing to the June crop report issued to-
day by Edward c. Paxton, Kansas
field agent. The growing condition is
SO per cent of normal with ample
moisture in all parts of the state for
present needs.
Should such a harvest be realized it
will be the fifth time in the last seven
years that Kansas has exceeded a hun
bred million bushel wheat crop. From
1914 to 1918 inclusive Kansas pro-
duced 1874 per cent of all the winter
wheat in the United States. In 1919
she raised her ante to 20.6 per cent.
This season she promises from pres
emit outlook to go even farther and
make it 21.6 per cent.
There has been a general improve
ment in wheat during the past month.
Local hail storms have done slight
damage in the aggregate. The growth
is a little too rank in the eastern bot
toms and even in parts of the west.
No serious amount of lodging has oc-
Cured as yet, but it is threatened I'M
less there is plenty of sunshine for a
week or two. Rust has appeared in
some localities especially in Barton
county. Hessian fly is present in many
fields in the eastern half of the state
but has not been plentiful enough to
cause serious damage. Mature chiHch
bugs are to be found in many counties
of the eastern border and promise to
become troublesome in the corn fields

later if the weather proves favorable
for their development.
Dat Acreage 1,779,O0O.
Preliminary survey places the Kan
sas oat acreage this year at 1.779,000
acres. A growing condition on June
first of SO per cent would forecast a
yield of 29.S7 bushels per acre and a
total crop of 81, 249,000 bushels. Last
years crop amounted to 44,229,000
bushels and the average production in
the last five years has been 51,435,000
bushels Nineteen seventeen was the
Kansas banner cat year with a produc-
ton of 70,S04,0 900 bushels.
The barley acreage appears to be
% per cent greater than a year ago,
making the second largest acreage in
the history of Kansas agriculture. The
June first condition of 80 per cent
would forecast a probable yield of 1913
bushels per acre and a production of
l4,612, 900 bushels. The 1919 barley
crop was the largest production ever
recorded, with 1920, 900 bushels. The
five year annual average crop has
only only been 6,45S.000 bushels. The
area of barley production has been
greatly enlarged in the last three
years, having spread from a compare
lively restricted section in the north
west until most of the counties of the
western half of the state are now
planting creditable acreages. Even in
the south-central counties there was
considerable seeding this spring on
abandoned wheat land.
Good Stands OF Corn.
Corn planting is practically COM
pleted with good stands in all but a
few northeast counties where cut
worms and washing rains have neces-
STATED a replant. No estimates of
corn acreage or condition will be
made until July 1, but the indications
are that Kansas has returned to her
pre-war basis and has planted a much
larger acreage than was sown last
year. Many counties will show fully
a 80 per cent increase over year ago.
The first cutting of alfalfa is being
taken and the crop in general is light.
The condition at time of harvest was
rated at 80 per cent as compared with
10S last year Wild hay meadows
have improved in appearance since
the general rains of May and are off
to a good start now tho much be-
lated. Pastures are excellent, being
rated at 90 per cent of normal, but
the number of cattle on grazing is
greatly diminished. Much pasture
land in the long grass section has re-
verted to NOW land because takers
were so backward this spring.
On June 1 the condition of other
minor crops in Kansas was rated as
follows: Rye, 80 per cent; apples, SO
per cent; clover, 90 per cent; peaches,
90 per cent; pears. 20 per cent; black
berries and raspberries, SIS per cent;
watermelons and muskmelons, IS per
cent; sugar beets, 100 per cent.
Estimate in Detail.
Below is the June estimate in detail
by counties, for Kansas, showing the
condition and forecasted production OF
winter wheat.

Hanlon PeeUedI At udacityI Of [. A Uera

What's puzzling me is just exactly what Larry Avera means" stated Eddie Hanlon to an Age-Herald representa- tive yesterday. ''Is the Gate City boxer trying to kid me or is he just out for some news paper notoriety?"
 All of which was caused by the re- cent letter to the sporting editor of The Age-Herald from Walk Miller, in which 1t was stated that Larry Avera was willing to take on both Hanlon and Freddie Boorde on the same night
 ''Avern knows as we'll as I do
 that such m undertaking ax he

 E. A. c. would not attempt such
 thing as matching Avcra with

Cleveland November Especial. )-- Every fighter has his jinx village. And if Cleveland isn't Pal Moore's hoodoo hamlet, then King George is violent Irish sympathizer. The Memphis ban tamweight has boxed here three lines. First it was in 1917 with Jack Wolfe. Moore broke his arm. and the bout was stopped in the fourth round. The fol- lowing year he took on Jabez White. and was a topheavy favorite to yin. White had been having his troubles winning from secondraters. 'doore was in the throeS of fine winning streak, and was attracting national in terest.
 The bout with White was to be a mere iimbering-up thing with chance to get away with some soft and suc- ,culent cash But White refused to roll lover and play dead Instead, he Iore into Moore with such fury and skill that the southerner was lucky to be on his feet at the end of the tenth round. It was quite evident that the Moore jinx was working faster than Mexican whisky on d strange tourist.
 COMES BACK FOR MORE
 Yet Pal came back for more few months ago, and agreed to battle Carl Tremaine. Again he ran afoul of a |startling surprise. In the second roand he stopped a punch with his head and promptly went dead on his feet He fought from the third to the tenth in a state of semicoma. How he ever es- Icaped being knocked out forms con |dition closely approaching q ring mira 'cle.
 One would suppose that such sus- tained run of hard luck would convince Moore that his Cleveland jinx is very material and active creature. But ap- parentiy it m cans nothing in his career, for he returns Thursday night to battle Tremaine in a return bout.

England May
 Get Big Bout,
 Is fhe .Run1or

New York, November 3O.- In the event no suitable place can be found in this country to hold the forthcoming heavy weight boxing championship between Jack Dempsey, world champion, and Georges Car pentier, European titleholder, the contest may be staged in England, it was reported in generally wellinformed circles here today.
 The promoters are known to have held a number of conferences on the choice of battle-ground within the last few days, and it was intimatcd today that an official announcement may be made within a short time.
 Neither Tex Rickard, one of the trio of promoters, nor Jack Kearns, Demp- sey's manager, would admit that nego- tiations had been started to hold the con- test abroad, but Kearns said Dempsey s formerly expressed antipathy to going outside the United States had been vir- tually overcome.
 The proposition to shift the fight abroad was said to have been prompted by coldness exhibited by members of the state boxing commission toward holding it in this state. It was admitted that Charles B. Cochran. the English pro- moter, is tentatively negotiating for a suitable site near London, in case plans to hold it in this country are not con- Summated.
