MAY PLANT 90 PER
Cent BASE ACREAGE

Decision to authorize. In connec-
ton with the 1885 wheat program,
the planting of so per cent OF the
base acreage OF signers of wheat
adjustment contracts, was announc-
ed by the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration.
This course Is expected to pro-
duce, under average weather condi-
tions and allowing for the nomal abb
andonment of wheat acreage. ap-
proximately 775 million bushels of
wheat for harvest in 1885.
Benefit payments to cooperating
producers would total approximately
102 million dollars at the rate of 20
cents per bushel on the domestic al
lotment OF the base production OF the
cooperating producers as was an
nounced in July.
Some 51l2 million acres of the ma
tions base wheat acreage of 66 mil
lion acres, Is covered by the con-
tracts which have been signed by
producers. Planting of 80 per cent
or approximately As million acres of
this land would be authorized under
the plan.
The anticipated national total pro
duction of IT'S million bushels of
wheat, from farms of cooperators
and others, together with an estim-
ated carryover of 125 million bushels
at the beginning Of this marketing
year, would provide total supply of
900 million bushels OF wheat to care
for the domestic consumption, which
has averaged 625 million bushels per
year in the past This would leave
