Plains Drought
Stirs Concern
For Wheat Crop
By the Associated Press

Agriculture Department off,
lcialS expressed concern today
over production prospects for
winter wheat next year in a
large Great Plains area which
continues to be plagued by
drought.
They also weighed the possible
impact of feed shortages on the
Nations livestock industry.
In its October crop report is
sued yesterday. the department
said crop production this year
looks as if it will be the third
largest on record and only about
one per cent below the record
harvest Of 1913. The production
prospects were said to have in
creased one per cent in Septem-
Der under influence of generally
favorable late growing and har-
vest season conditions.
Broad Consequences Seen
But the Great Plains drought
taking in parts of Nebraska,
Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri and
ITexaS-was said to threaten the
success of millions of acres of
winter wheat land seeded for
harvest next spring.
I'm much of Texas, Oklahoma
and parts of Kansas, the all
time low range condition for the
date, poor prospects for winter
wheat, pastures and other forage
supplies produce a critical live
stock condition" the report said.
officials were concerned lest
the feed shortage start a heavy
run Of cattle to market = a
development which could easily
depress livestock prices.
A short wheat crop would not
create a shortage from the con-
sumner standpoint because of the
existence of SURPRISES, but it
would adversely affect producers
incomes.
This years production includes
a record Soybean crop of 47O
million bushels, which is 80 mil
lion more than last years record
and nearly PIT million bushels
above average.
Corn Statistics
The corn crop was indicated
at 3,369.000.000 bushels, which
would be the third largest of
record. The top crop was 3,605, :
100000 in 1913. Production last
year was 3,241,0 100000 bushels.
Because of the existence of sur
plus supplies stored under Gov
eminent price support programs,
the department had recon-
mended a smaller crop this
year.
The wheat crop, at CTS million
bushels, was little different from
that forecast a month ago and
compares with 936 million last
year and the 10-year average of
| LAB, 100000.
The hay crop was estimated
at ITO million tons, the second
largest on record. Last years
production was 108 million tons.
Because of the drought, this
years crop of sorghum grain is
falling below last years. Esti-
mated at los million bushels, the
crop is rs million below last
year, but "a million more than
average.
The potato crop was esti-
mated at 242 million hundred
weight compared with 227 million
vast year and 226 million for
the 10-year average.

FALL REVIVAL SPEAkER-The
fall revival for the Greenwood
Methodist Charge will be held No
vember 25 through December g..
Service will be held each evening
except Saturdays, at 1880 p. m, in
the Greenwood Methodist Church,
West Main Street, Greenwood, Del
aware. The song service will be
conducted by the pastor of the
charge, Rev. Frank o. Baynard
There will be special music each
evening, with both local talent and
talent from other sections of Del
aware and from Maryland.
Mrs. Corretta Mason, Methodist
evangelist of Forest and Lynch
burg, Va, will be the speaker each
evening. She will also speak at
the Morning Worship hour each
Sunday at II a. m. Miss Nancy Por-
ter will be at the piano and Mrs.
Elnora Anthony will be at the con-
sole of the organ.
Mrs. Corretta Mason became a
Christian when she was a young
girl. Immediately following, she be-
gan to give an outstanding Christ
ian testimony, with such sweetness,
sincerity and force, that a great
number of people were won to the
Lord. AS a result of this, she re-
ceived invitations to hold and con-
duct various types of meetings and
church services. These meetings
were so successful that she soon
began to receive requests to con-
duct revival meetings and evange-
listic campaign. Invitations became
so numerous, that she went into
full time evangelistic work. For a
number of years, Mrs. Mason has
possibly enjoyed, as a woman evan
gelist, the leading reputation and
influence of our country. She is in
great demand as a conference
speaker and evangelist.
You are invited to support these
services with your prayers and
presence.

acres he entered in the contest.
Altogether, there were 80 soy

Gas Appliance Group
Halls Rural Family

Rural Americas vital role as a
market for household appliances
and equipment is shown in figures
listing the huge postwar sales to-
tails for gas ranges and water heat
ers.
The summary is by Edward R..
Martin, director of marketing and
statistics for the Gas Appliance
Manufacturers Association. 1t
shows that by the end of this year
the number of domestic gas ranges
made for liquefied petroleum gas
during the postwar period will be
past the 100000 mark In the
same time nearly 100000 water
heaters using this fuel will have
been installed.
1.-The rural family" Martin COM
ments, clearly is at the head of
the parade in its demands for the
comforts, conveniences and health
benefits modern gas service can
bring.
1.-THE farm home market has
blended with growing suburban
and resort markets in a tremen-
dous postwar push toward home
modernization and upgraded Ifv-
ing standards.
"As a result, sales of gas appli-
ances and equipment for use be-
yond utility gas lines-that is, for
use with liquefied petroleum gas
account for over 20 per cent of the
total in some key classifications.
This is a most remarkable achieve
ment in view of the tremendous ex-
pansion of natural gas. pipelines
and of utility lines distributing
natural gas"
Here are some of the CANA Off
cial's figures for the decade ended
with 1855:
Of the 23,127,5OO domestic gas
ranges of all types shipped by
manufacturers, 4,98S,900, or ZIG
per cent, were for LP-Gas. The LIP
figure for water heaters was g.
12,4O0, or 1874 per cent of the 49,
509,600 produced for both city
and LP-Gas.
Last year LIP ranges were listed
at $4,000, or 20 per cent of the
shipment total for all gas ranges,
and for water heaters the figure
was $4,000, or 1877 per cent of the
record output for all gas types.
Martin points out that in addi-
ton to its big total in ranges and
water heaters, the rural market
has accounted for vast numbers
of heating units, clothes dryers,
refrigerators and incinerators. He
states:
when you consider that appli-
ance additions are part of home
improvement programs calling for
everything from wallboard to dra-
peries, it is apparent that the vast
modernization program in the
dwellings of Rural America has
been, and continues to be, one of
the most vital forces in our econo-
my
Martin points out that liquefied
petroleum gas is sold under vari-
Gus trade names in all parts of the
country. Made up of propane, bu-
tame or mixtures of the two, it is
known to many as bottled gas, or
tank gas. 1t is important as a mo-
tor fuel and in many agricultural
