IN SYSTEM
MADE BY FEDERAL
CROP REPORT BODY
Winter Wheat Acreage for Pre-.
vious Years Revised In
Official Tabulation

Washington, Dec. 2l.-(FeIn es-
timating winter wheat sowings this
fall, the crop reporting board Of the
department Of agriculture made
marked revisions in its estimates Of
sowtngs for the period from 1928 to
1888, averaging 81 per cent over pre-
vious estimates.
Explaining the reason for this re-
vision, the board said:
"The estimates Of acreage seeded
for the period 1928 to 1883 have been
revised In line with data on ship
meuts and other utilization Of wheat
collected for use in the check-up Of
farmers applications for benefits In
connection with the wheat reduction
campaign. As q result Of this check
up the estimates for these years have
been revised upward an average Of 81
per cent"
For 1929 the revised figure was CIV
en- as 44,971 900 acres, as compared
with previous estimate Of 43,562, 900
acres: 1890 revised IS 10000 compar-
ed with 1880. 900; 1881 revised a.
5000 compared with 40,A20, 900 and
1882 revised 42,6o2, 600 compared with
80, ,o02 900.
4l,o02, 900 Acres Seeded
The area seeded this fall, estimated
on the basis Of these revised figures,
was placed at l1,O02 900 acres, or I
per cent less than last years revised
estimate and ~ per cent less than
the revised estimate Of average acre
age seeded l929-1931, which was a.
10000 acres.
1.-THE reduction in seeded acreage is
about one-half the reduction required
OF farmers In making applications for
wheat allotments," the board said.
'"The reductions from base acreage
were largest In the states where the
proportion Of farmers signing wheat
applications was largest. In many Of
the states In which only small pro-
portion Of the farmers applied for
wheat allotments, q small reduction
or an increase Is reported.
"This estimate relates to winter
wheat only and on farms where both
winter and spring wheat may be
grown applicants may plan to reduce
spring wheat acreage rather than
winter wheat acreage. It should also
be noted that the farmers contracts
were frequently approved for q small
er acreage than they had already
seeded. The excess acreage seeded
will probably be utilized for pasture,
cut for hay, or turned under In order
that the farmers may comply with
the terms Of their contracts next
spring."

An article by John Brendel on Rus
