MARYLAND WHEAT CROP
FORECAST ANNOUNCED
Special Dispatch to The star.

Special Dispatch to The star.
BALTIMORE, May 1S.-The 1929
Maryland wheat crop is forecast at
about 8,323,000 bushels in comparison
with 8,745, 900 bushels last year, accord
ing to S. r. Newell, Federal agricultural
statistician for Maryland. Mr. Newell
in his statement points out, however,
that while high condition figures on
May are indicative Of a heavy stand.
they show no positive relationship with
Anal yield.
THE final out-turn depends to a
large extent upon the weather from now
until harvest time, due to the presence
of black scab (septoria nodorum) infec-
ton In most fields" he says, land pro-
longed wet weather at heading time will
undoubtedly prove detrimental and may
even lower the final production below
the indication at this time. On the
other hand, dry. sunshiny weather, with
no long damp. 'nuggy' periods between
now and harvest, will prove beneficial
and probably give a much better out
turn than the present forecast"
Abandonment Of is per cent of the
wheat sown In Maryland in 1928 leaves
approximately $4,000 acres to be
harvested this year.
Rye, being resistant to black scab,
apparently has better prospects for a
good yield than wheat. On an acreage
about per cent smaller than last year,
the indicated production is nearly 2
per cent larger than year ago.
Hay condition is reported at 81 per
cent Of normal.
