PAGE SIX RYE ACREAGE ‘TS DECREASED IN NO. DAKOTA Amount Sown This Fall Is Estimated 15 Per Cent Be- low that of Last Year FARM WAGES ARE ,LESS rye acr this fall for the 1923 crop, placed at 1,844,000 acres, is 15 percent below that of 1922, while the December 1 condition of rye, 78 percent of a is the lowest in the past 10 ‘according to estimates af: the U. S. Bureau of agricultural economics. Qnly 41 percent of North Dakota’s farm lands were plowed this fall compared with 60 percent in 1921 and 69 percent in 1920, according to the report, which attr’butes this decrease as well as that of rye acreage and condition, largely to the dry soils that prevail- ed throughout the state during the secding per‘od. Wages for harvest labor in 1922 ‘show but slight in- crease.The repott follows in part: Rye Acreage—Acreage of winter rye sown in Nofth Dakota this fall for the 1923 crop is esti ‘mated at 1,- 344,000 acres, which i 85 percent of the 1922 area, 1,581,000 acres (re- vised.) The decrease in winter rye acreage in North Dakota this fall is largely due to the dry soils‘that pre- vailed during most of the seeding season. In this decrease all d's- tricts of the state, excepting some and southeastern counties participated. Rye Condition—December 1 condi- tion af winter rye in North Dakota placed at 78 perent of a normal, is the. lowest for this date during the past 10 years and compares with 92 percent on December 1 last year. and, the 10 year average on’that date of 85.2. percent, The same factor of dry soils that curtailed, the, acreage also affected the start and, growth of seedings with the result that large areas had failed to germinate at the clooe of. October and much sprouted as late as the second week of November following the first general fall precipitation and a short spell of worm weather. Fall Plowing—Fall plow’ng which is important in the Red River Valley districts was likewise restricted by the fall drouth,; The December 1 imquiry as to the percent of all farm lands fall plowed- show'mg but 41 percent, compared with 60 percent in 1921 and 59 percent in 1920. Wage_ Scales Inquiry on December 1 as to wages of farm labor for 1922 dis- ~eloses a slight increase in the wage per day over that of 1921, but a fur- ther slight decrease in the wage per- month when hired gy the year, the report says, The average monthly wage, with board, (hired by the year) is shown comparatively as follows: — 1920, $70.00; 1921, $40.00; 1922, $39.00. Day wages with board for harvest, | 1920, $6.10; 1921, 3.70; 1922,. $3.90. Day wages for with board for other years, than harvest, 1920, $4,40; 1921, $2.55; 1922, $2.65. x The monthly wage average rée- flects a tendency upon the part af farmers to do as much as their own work as possible, the report says. FORD-SALES RECORD. BROKEN According to stateme statement issued by. the Ford. Motor Company, deliveries of Ford cars and trucks to retail buyers during the month of Novem- ber totalled 106,327. This is a new high sales record that has never been approached before by the Company at this season of the year‘and one which stands out in marked contrast to the November 1921 retail delivery figures which totalled slightly over 58,000 cars and trucks. For eight’ consecutive months, be- ginning with April 1st of this year retail deliveries have exceeded 100,- 000 Ford cars and trucks each, month; the accumulated total, for the first eleven months of 1922 being appro- ximately 1,200,000.

KNIGHT ENGINE SPEEDER WINS. Andre Boillot, lot, driving a Peugeot | with a four-cylinder Knight-type en-° gine, won the sixth Coppa Florio race, held over a wild Silician course | cast of Palermo, on Sunday, Nov. 9th. The French driver covered the 268.5 miles in 7h. 9m. 7s., making an aver- age of 37.5 miles p.h. Second place in the race was“won; by H, 9. D. Segrave on a six-cylin- der Sunbeam 1h. 6m, behind ‘the leader, and only 1m. .55s. ahead of the third man, Bequet, on a Knight eve-valve Peugeot. No others ceeded in going the entire dis- ;tanee within the time limit. : Nine cars lined up at the start. The rice was of a most, gruelling nature, the rough roads and fast pace being responsible for the elim- ination of more than, 50 per cent’ of) the competitors. For the 67 miles of ‘thé circuit ft is estimated that there are 1,600 dis- tinct bends, the altitude varies from sea lever to 3,400 feet, and some of the strfetches have a surface of such a nature than no reasonable motor- ‘ist would consent to drive over it at more than six miles per hour.
