HUGE WHEAT CROP
FORECAST BY DA
Experts Expect Record
Production OF 973,047,
600 Bushels This Spring

WASHINGTON, April 10. IN
A record winter wheat crop
973, O47, 900 bushels was forecast
by the Agriculture department in
a report today which told, how
ever, of delays in getting spring
crops planted in the Eastern two
thirds of the country.
The department said the fall
sown winter wheat crop apparent
ly came through the winter with
little loss.
The new production estimate is
about Is, 500, 900 bushels larger
than was forecast last December
and is nearly 100, 900, 600 bushels
larger than the record crop OF
last year.
Should t h e spring wheat crop
turn out as forecast three weeks
ago, the total wheat crop would
be about 1898, 900, 900 bushels, or
about SO, 600, 600 bushes more
than last years peak crop. B y
comparison, production for the
past ten years averaged less than
900, 900, 900.
WITH world production of foods,
particularly cereals, still being
hampered by effects of the war
and by poor weather in Europe,
such a crop would enable this
country to meet large export de-
mands during the coming year.

Along The Cape Fear

The other was Mr.. c. c. Chad
bourn of Ais South Front Street
who has been more than gra-
cious in aiding this column.
So we are giving both Mr. Skin
ner and Mr.. Chadbourn fair
warning that we will soon be on
their trail seeking more informa-
ton about Wilmington's original
dry dock.
FISH EATING DERBY - Dom
think for a moment that we have
abandoned search to deter
mine what species in the waters
adjacent to the Cape Fear region
is considered the best eating fish.
No SIS, 900 in awards will await
the winners of the best eating
fish rodeo, but we are having
lot of fun in allowing connois'
seurs to debate in print the rela'
tive merits of their choice.
Now take Mr.. Hall of Winter
