DAMAGE TO CEREAL CROPS CAUSES BIG DROP IN OUTPUT Washington, Sept. 9.—Heavy dam- i age to the country's cereal crops dur-j ins August caused a loss of many mil- | lions of bushels !n prospective pro duction, cutting down the outlook for] wheat to below the amount required for home consumption. The department of agriculture's monthly forecast, estimates the wheat crop at 611,000,000 bushels, or 9,000,000 busneis less than ,is calculated to be necessary for domestic use. A carry over of approximately 160,000,000 bushels of old wheat from last year's record-breaking crops, however, will make up the deficiency and leave some thing like 100,000,000 bushels available to supply the heavy demands of foreign nations for American wheat. Spring wheat, parched by hot and dry weather, showed a loss of 43,000,000 j bushels since the August forecast of production, while corn estimates were 67,000,000 bushels smaller than fore cast a month ago. • A preliminary estimate of the winter wheat crop places the production at 455,000,000 bushels and that of Spring wheat at 156,000,000. The prospective Spring wheat crop is the smallest in twenty-two yeat'S and 200,000,000 bush els less than harvested last year. The total wheat crop is placed at 611,000,000 bushels, which is 400,000,000 bushels less than last year's record-breaking crop of 1,012,000,000 bushels. The com bined winter and Spring wheat crop is the smallest since 1900 and the acre yield is lowest in twenty-three years. Ciiru I.oms l)ue to Drouitht The heavy loss in prospective produc tion of corn was due to drought. The total crop is forecast at 2,710,000,000 bushels, 22,000,000 bushels smaller than the average for the last five years. The smallest output of white potatoes since 1911 is forecast for winter sup ply. While cereals all suffered seriour damage during the month, hay and to bacco prospects increased, and the har vests of those two cropj and also of rice will be record-breaking. There was an Increase of 27,000,000 pounds in the indicated production of tobacco, making a crop of 1.224,000,000 pounds, and exceeding the former record crop of 1910 by 121,000,000 pounds. Rice, which declined 1.400,000 bushels from a month ago, promises a crop of 32,800,000 bushels, which would be al most 3,000,000 bushels more than the record crop harvested last year. Comment of Department The department issued the following statement commenting upon the report: "Nearly all crops declined in condi tion during the last month due to the hot, dry weather In the northern and central west portions of the United States. Corn declined in prospect during the month 67,000,000 bushels; Spring wheat declined 43,000,000 bushels; oats, 43,- 000,000 bushels; barley. 11,000,000 bush els; buckwheat, 1,300,000 bushels; pota toes, 46,000,000 bushels; rice 1,400,000 bushels; cotton declined in prospect in a month, 1,100,000 bales, and apples, 3,- 900.000 barrels. "On the other hand, tobacco prospects improved during the month 27,000,000 pounds, the hay estimate is 1,600,000 tons higher than the August 1 foi"ecast and fla?: and sugar beet prospects im proved slightly during the month.

"The corn crop forecast is now slightly below the acreage production of recent years, the shortage being most severe In Kansas. In most states almost an average crop is forecast. "The oats crop is short only In com parison with early forecasts this sea son and last year's Immense crop, be cause the quantity now forecast is more than the yearly average of the last five years. "The potato condition forecasts an unusually short crop for winter sup ply. "The hay crop Is the largest crop ever estimated, and is an exception to eg the general indication of short crops ~ this year. ■ "The tobacco and rice crops also promise to be the largest ever pro duced." •VWVWUWVSiSVWV^VWVWvi* < Katharine Brock Smith i has resumed teaching at her J S Studio, 2019 North Second St. V / A thorough course in Pianoforte 5 S playing. f J For terms, etc., apply at the J / above address or phone Bell J | 902-J. jj jj Miss Jeanne Prat!
