EURoPE's WHEAT CROP SHORT
Cold April Hits France and Germany
United States Is Told.

WASHINGTON.-Growth of winter
grain in Europe has been arrested by
unreasonable cold during April and
prospects of crops in general are less
encouraging than the previous month,
Alfred P Debbis, special representa-
tive of the commerce department at
Rome, cabled the department Monday.
Reports as to growing crops in France
and Germany, he said, were particu-
larly bad.
European winter grain acreage, he
continued, emitting Austria, England
and Ireland, shows a decline of at
least 100000 acres in wheat seed
ings as compared with last year, the
decline, however, being about offset
by larger rye sowings.
The area in barley, he declared, was
substantially the same as last year,
losses in Bulgaria and France being
offset by gains in Rumania amount
ing to $4,000 acres. Prospects for
European cereal yields, he added, are
no better than fair, with a growing
conviction that even under more fav-
orable conditions from now ON the
wheat harvest will fall short of last
seasons yield.

dogs, sired by Badly, were shipped to

Baldy's last sweepstakes was run in
1917 and after the race Allan brought
the dog to Berkeley, where he and Mr..
