BREAD PRICES
TO GO UP In
GREAT BRITAIN
England Reported to Be
Harvesting One of Small
est Wheat Crops.

London. Sept. 1.-(Mail.)-With

haps to 35 cents England is harvest
ing this season the smallest wheat
crop since the early days of the war,
Production of barley. on the other.
hand, will show material increase
over that of the last few years.
The reasons for this state of affairs.
according to Professor James Long, a
we'll known agricultural expert, are
government control and beer. The
price Of wheat and oats Is regulated,
but no restrictions have been placed
on that of barley. AS the market
price of barley is exceptionally high.
farmers planted that grain instead of
wheat and oats.
Professor Long shows that since
1913 wheat has been reduced by 679,-
900 acres, or more than one-tfiird of
the present area, while oats, also an
important breadstuff, has fallen off by
$4,000 acres. "Qn the basis Of
wheat he says. "this means a loss of
bread grain equal to some $4,000, 600
bushels, or sufficient to feed $4,000
persons. 1t is a. curious commentary
on the fact that the barley crop has
considerably increased, and that in
consequence beer has so far occupied
the position of bread"
The country has fewer cattle than
in any Year since 1909 and 5,330,oo0
less sheep than the average Of ten
years from 1904 to 1918. The. de-
crease in cattle since last year is more
than 100000 head.
