Umatilla county's 1921 wheat crop

276 bushels were delivered to mills

the period from August. 1921. to De-
cember. 1921. wv
Winter wheat, according to the re-
vised estimate, amounted to 225,000
acres, which averaged 80 bushels an
acre or total of 6,750.060 bushels.
The acreage OF spring wheat wos 15,-
900, which at is bushels an acre
brings the amount TO 100000 bushels,
Hence the total for winter and
spring wheat is 100000.
Mr.. Kent, in letter to Fred Benn-

not much increase In the total acreage
over that Of 1919, which the census
enumerated at 224,611 acres although

NEW YORK, Feb. ID. N. ST.
Because they believe state censorship
OF plays would be fatal to dramatic
art. members of the New York Dra-
ma League have launched q cam
paign for voluntary censorship OF
plays by the theatregoing public.
A plan evolved by Charles Coburn,
of the Producing Managers Associa-
ton, has been approved by play
wrights. managers and actors. II
would provide for an agreement be-
tween theatre owners, producers OF
plays and actors to the effect that
any play deemed by competent
jury of laymen to be unworthy OF
unfit for production would be with
drawn without further notice and
without legal action.
Upon receipt of sufficient com.
plants about any play the Commits
sioner Of Licenses would select from
q panel of 500 specially chosen jur'
ors five persons to witness and pas
on the play. Their decision woult
be final. The jurors would be chos

cations.
A committee from the Drama
