 It is clear, says Dr. Oliver E. Baker, economist of the Depart ment of Agriculture, that Aaneri- can farmers cannot depend on continuous expansion of the north ern European market
 In addition to a declining birth rate, agricultural technique is ad- vancing in northern Europe as it is in North America, Dr. Baker says. In Northwestern Europe the acre-yields of some of the crops are twice as high as in the Unit ed States.
 Likewise, it is apparent, econo- nists say, that the market in Eu- rope for American manufacturers cannot be greatly increased. In- dustriai technique also is advanc- ling there, and postwar Arneri- can opportunities are lessening as the continental nations become more and more committed to the policy of fostering and protecting domestic industries. #

AtNAN-C%~N%~NN~
 NEW YORK, May 4.-One of The largest fields in the history of the Kentucky Derby probably will face the barrier for the fifty eighth running of the $5O,000 stake at Churchill Downs, May T.
 Much depends, however, on what the three future book favor ites-C. V. Whitney's Top Flight, Mrs. Louis G. Kaalfnan's Trick On" and the Shandon Farm 5 Burning Blaze-Eiaow in their three year-old debuts.
 Top Flight and Tick On were slated to appear for public ap- prcval April 30, the former in the $10,ooO Wood Memorial at Jam aica and later in the $10,000 Chesapeake Stakes at Iiavre de Grace. Burning Blaze, which is living up to his name in morning trials, probably will ge the prop for the big event in the Derby trial at Churchill
 An ordinary race by the trio, however, did send owners and trainers rushing to deposit the $500 starting fee. Twelve faced the barrier last year while of the record of 9 starters was estab- lished in 1928, the year Reign Count proved the best mudder.
 So far the railbirds are pretty much in the air. Top Flight, un- der the watchful eye of Tom Healey, has been working steadily at Belmont Park, turning in sev- eral mile trials of better than 1:45 and one in 1:42 under tight restraint.
 In Kentucky Burning Blaze tray eled mile in 1:30 Is, one of the fastest workouts recorded by a midwestern entry. Tick On, now at Havre de Grace, has been breeding miles around 1:45 and in a test for speed stepped five fur longs in 100 3-5.

B. F. Heintzleman, As- sistant Regional Forester, who bore the brunt of the onslaught led by John M.

 Hopes Take Jump
 E. R. Bradley's hopes took a jump upwards when Brother Joe and Burgoo King finished one, two at Lexington. after the for msr had finished second to Adobe Post in his debut. Although Bur- gee King was the best juvenile Bradley has come out for Brother Joe, claiming he was better dis tance runner.
 Chances of Mrs. Kaufmann sending two horses to the post have somewhat faded since Train e Hirrsch shipped the stable to Maryland. On Post, able to keep step with Tick On at early trials, has been responding splendidly as desired by the veteran trainer.
