FOREIGN CROPS

Production Fore casts
Show Conditions to be
Favorable.

WASHINGTON - Production of
wheat in Italy is forecast at 164,000,OOO
bushels, compared with 193,000,000
bushels in 1928, according to cable
grams just received by the United
States department of agriculture. The
probable wheat harvest for Canada is
placed at about 338OOO,OOO bushels, as
compared with 3Ol 100000 bushels last
year. The wheat crop of China is es-
timated at 175,OOO,O0O bushels, as COM
pared with 15OO0O,OO0 bushels, esti-
mated yield for 1921.
General crop conditions in Europe,
as a whole for the first half of June
have ranged from normal to slightly
below normal. England and Hun
gary were feeling the lack of rain;
Russia, Austria, and the Prussian
state in Germany have experienced
average conditions. In Rumania and
Jugoslavia crop prospects are good
Canada reports excellent growing con-
ditions. In the Saltillo consular dis
trict of Mexico the weather is more
favorable for crop production than it
has been for years. Conditions are
fair in Australia although rain is gen
orally needed.
Crop conditions in Great Britain are
estimated at 1886 per cent of the av-
erage condition for wheat, 1873 for
barley, 74.1o for oats, 85.77 for beans
1897 for potatoes, and 75,5 for root
crops. The hay crop is reported n be
the smallest gathered or grown.

those of three pilots.
The record from July 10, 1921, to
July 10 this year is by far the most
wonderful performance in the history
of practical flying. The percentage
of trips completed was 92.5 per cent
as compared with 80 per cent of the
previous year. This is comparable
with the best railroad records.

cotton prices continued wide and ir-

accompanied by reports of continued
unsettled financial and political con-

ing of the boil weevil with consequent
uneasiness as to the probable extent

of influence on the course of prices for
several weeks had been the prospects
