LABOR SCARCITY
WILL CAUSE CROPS
TO FALL SHORT
Winter Wheat is Reduced
Thirty-one Percent, But
Fruit is Plentiful.

ITHACA. y. Y. June 23.-The re-
cent report Of the United States Bu-
reau Of Crop Estimates shows that
the shortage OF farm labor and the
unfavorable weather for planting
have affected crop production in this
country even more than was indicat-
ed 5y earlier estimates.
The acreage % hay and barley
will be about the same as they were
last year. but other crops will be re-
duced as follows: Winter wheat 81
per cent, beans 2s per cent rye %
per cent. Spring wheat IS per cent,
potatoes 8 per cent, oats 3 per cent.
These estimates indicate that the to-
tai acreage devoted % these eight
crops will Re less than ~ was last
year by $4,000, 900 acres or II per
cent While this is a large decrease
II should be remembered that condi-
tions are abnormal in that last
years Winter wheat crop was plant
ed before the armjstice and the
shortages so far reported may be
partially offset by increases in later
planted crops such as corn and cot
ton. Then, too. the acreages Of
early planted crops were very large
last year. but the yields were low.
With normal weather conditions
from now on the total pounds OF
wheat, oats. barley and rye pro
duced In this country would be only
about per cent less than was pro-
duced last year and 3 per cent below
the average OF the previous five
years.
II f. worthy OF note, however. that
during the fifty-three years for
which statistics are available the
acreage devoted 70 these eight crops
has increased quite regularly nearly
three million acres a year. There
has been some fiuctuat!On from sea
son to season on account OF weather
conditions but the greatest decrease
recorded I'm any previous year was
less than 2 per cent. and that was
back in 1885. From present indica-
tiOns the decrease this season will
therefore. be six times as much as
has occurred in other year since the
Civil war. Under the circumstance.
there is nothing surprising in the
fact that the average price OF farm
crops increased per cent durinI

JAPAN,s CENSUS IMPORTANT.

OF considerable interest 10 the rest of the world.
because Of the light it will throw on the alleged neces-
sity Of emigration to avoid overcrowdiug in Nippon, is
Japans decennial census, the taking of which is to be
begun on October J..
No reliable figures as TO her population have been
available for a number of years. Wars have interfered
with previous plans for census taking. The population
was placed al 33.I10,S25 in 1872 and in 1914 the pop
ulation of Japan proper was estimated at So. 700. 600
and OF the empire at 1000. 600. That there has been
a tremendous increase in the number Of inhabitants
in the last few decades is certain. Overcrowding. how
ever, appears to be due largely to the propensity OF the
people to concentrate in cities and villages; for the
average density of population, based on the 1914 esti-
mate. was only 342 TO the square mile. This was about
the same as the density of population in New Jersey in
1910, but was considerably less than the density of
Massachusetts. which had AIS perons to the square
mile In that year.
A comparison Of Japan with Germany is not in
appropriate. since both have asserted the need of ex-
pansion. since Japan is and Germany was a military
government than any other country. Germany aver
age density of population, according 70 the 1910 census
was 311 to the square mile. Her population was a lit
tie less than the figure commonly accepted now for the
Japanese empire. The numbr of inhabitants in the Ger
man empire was given as 64,9o3.423 in 1910. The
charge has been made that Germany understated her
population in order to deceive her enemies as to her
man power. That she should have drawn such vast
armies from so small a population has been called in
credible. Assuming. however. that the German figures
were correct. some idea may be gained of the armies
that Japan could throw into the field.
The figures to be revealed in connection with the
official japanese census will be worth studying in CON
nection with these questions.

whom the authors OF best sellers and heroes OF the
drama will have TO reckon.
When Lord Dunsany lectures to her. says the
author OF this analysts Of the college girls reading.
she is not carried away by his poetic presence. Be
meath the surface of his flow of words she finds q

mixed metaphor is a ~jutinable reason for casting aside
the friendship of 4 lord, the truth of the matter Is
that along with other things in the world the col

WOMEN WILL VOTE.

Senator Harding. IN a letter which he sent a few
days ago to the organizations Of women throughout
the country. makes a plea for their support Of the
reoublican party on the ground that 1t is the only parity
that has a definite program for social service and 9TH
er matters in which women, perhaps more than men,
are interested.
The housing problem has assumed national i'm
portance and the party that deserves to lead the ma
ton must have definite ideas that something must be
done by the federal. government to meet cmonditions
that are dong so much TO hamper normal living of
practically one-frh CT the population. The democra-
tic party is asking the support Of women on the league
of nations issue. but women are more interested in
helping to solve domestic problems than in giving
their support to a chimerical enterprise Of which lit
tie can be known that is convincing.
The newly enfranchised women Of America are
not unmindful Of the desire Of the world for peace.
and they are opposed TO an alliance that would keep
their own country constantly in the shadow Of war.
