Prospects for the worlds wheat sup

time no cause for serious alarm. rs
Inmates OF the quantity of wheat har-
.erted in 20 countries. including tile
United States, for 1921, total 2,46l,-
100000 bushels, compared with 2,SS4,-
$4,000 bushels harvested last year
according to data compiled by the
lIurcau of Markets and Crop Esti-
mates, United States Department OF
Agriculture. y
The 20 countries included In this
estimate are the United states, Can
ada, AEgeptlna, Chile, Uruguay, Bel
GUM, Bulgaria, Finland. France.
Greece, Hungary, Italy, Spain, Brit
ish India, Japan, Algeria, Tunisr Union
OF South Africa. Australia, and New
Zealand. These countries produced
approximately 6S per cent Of the
known wheat crop of the world dur
ing the years O03-13. according TO the
annual average production. records of
the bureau.
urouth Was Serious Menace
Although the long-sustained drouth
throughout the greater part OF the
Northern Hemisphere was serious
menace to the various crops In many
countries. the fall-sown wheat has not
been affected adversely so much as
was at first supposed. On the con-
trary, the fall-sown wheat managed to
obtain firm hold on the soil and a
fairly vigorous growth before the be-
ginning Of the drought.
Nearly all of northern and central
Europe will have larger wheat crops
Bthis year than last, according to the
last estimates made by the bureau,
Belgium and Greece being the only
countries in which smaller crops are
predicted.
Outside Of Europe, British India
was most seriously affected by the
drought The dryness and the hot
winds that have prevailed throughout
most OF the growing season have re-
suited in the very low yield OF 25O,-
4G9. 900 bushels Of wheat, or about 50,-
000, 900 bushels less than the quantity
normally consumed in that country.
With the rice crop also seriously af-
fected. India Is expected TO import
wheat this year instead of exporting
It. In an average year before the
World War, India exported oyer 50,-
000, 900 bushels OF wheat.
In Canada the total yield Of spring
wheat is estimated at 273,O20,000
bushels. Of which 264.1S7,O 900 BUSH
els were grown in saskatchewan,
Manitoba. and Alberta. Fall wheat,
grown almost exclusively in Ontario
and Alberta, was estimated at l5,473,-
900 bushels. The total wheat yield Of
Canada for 1921 is therefore SS,493,-
600 bushels. compared with 263.
600 bushels last year.
A very unsatisfactory feature in the
present international situation is the
hopeless condition OF the Russian
crops. Unofficial reports state that
during last autumn and the spring
Of this year only very small area
was sown to the various crops, result
ing In a failure to produce sufficient
food for the country's needs. II is also
reported unofficially that a consider

There has been much speculation
regarding the styles of evening dresses
that will be worn during the coming
winter.
The talk about long skirts, asserts
q fashion correspondent, has grown
to be more than rumor. We hear
them discussed everywhere as fash
ion that has taken a firm hold. 1t Is
true they are not yet worn on the
streets in this country to any extent,
but they are seen in the newest eve
ming dresses which are recent importa-
lions or copies Of new French models.
All of the conjecture regarding the
beauty Of the new styles in evening
dresses is being verified daily by the
appearance of lovely new models from
the hands Of the great artist dress
makers of Paris. The gay summer
social season has made it possible
for many of the winter novelties to
be anticipated. Paris is back again
to its prewar gayety, and the number
less events given in honor Of visiting
strangers have brought together wealth
and fashion to an unrivaled degree.
While no one can deny the con-
tinued vogue Of black-which fad,
starting for daytime wear, finished by
absorbing evening costumes as we'll
one is happy to note that at the most
recent social affairs gay splashes OF
color are beginning to appear. The
all-prevailing black had got to the
point where it was depressing in its
severity and predominance, especially
as many Parisiennes with these black
dresses laid aside their jewels. some
thing that is not done even In the
deepest Of mourning. Thus the In
PRODUCTION of sprinkling of more
cheerful gowns has been received with
enthusiasm.
The many colorful balls given as
benefits for various charitable works
throughout the season In Paris at
forded occasions upon which these daz-
zling new evening dresses could be
worn with great effect. Visitors from
all nations have united in attending
gala performances and other bene-
fits in the guise of social gatherings.
Thus these beautiful new evening
dresses have come under the eyes of
all the world, so to speak, for smart
women Of all countries have worn
them, first in Paris, and at the open
ing of the fall and winter season they
will unquestionably be seen In multi
fold duplicate wherever women OF
prominence appear.
Modern and Classic Notes Combined.
In addition to their beautiful colors
the strikingly new note is the length
Of the evening dress. Practically
every model that is smart and new is
long. One might say very long, touch
ing the heels, though never so COM
pletely long but that the wearer's
ankles are revealed through openings
or transparencies.
The modern and the classic join in
these dresses Greek, Egyptian and
striking up-to-date Partisan ideas are
combined. Every coquetry and fiat

remarkable success with their yellow
and silver dresses. They have chosen
vivid canary shades, heavily trimmed
with silver lace. Often they use the
one-side shoulder strap, leaving the
other shoulder bare or with a strap

other with q slender band of silver.
Their newest dresses appear to be
