The report finds the corn Prospect below both that of a ycar ago and the average, but acreage is 45 per cent larger than last year and present condition of 67 per cent interprets a crop of 25,830,000 bush els compared with 28,207,000 in 1923.

Factors affecting | the crop during June were more favorable than average and the pres- ent upward trend has added 6.5 mil- lion bushels to the prosp ot a month ago. Although somewhat late the crop is very sturdy and has reached heading stage with less cli- matic, insect and disease damage than, in any recent year, For the various districts of the state, con- dition of the crop runs quite uni- form. Black stem rust which usually is present at this time, had failed to make an appearance in any district of the state by July 1, according to reports received by this office. The present wheat prospect which may be lJarger or smaller than the final out- turn, as later conditions may vary above or below average, promises a crop of 73,943,000 bushels or 15.3 million bushels more than was har- vested last year, this year’s acreage being 10 per cent smaller than that of last year. 35 per cent of the 1924 wheat acreage has bgen estimated to be durum wheat and 65 per cent bread wheat. The July 1 concition of Durum and Bread wheat3 both averaged 88 per cent of a normal. * A year ago Durum condition avernged 3 points higher than that of all spring wheat. Wheat Stocks On Farms 2.6% per cent or 1,525,000 bushels of thé 1923 crop is estimated to| have been carried over, or remained on farms on July 1, 1924, compared with 5.0 per cent or 6,331,000 bushels of the 1922 crop estimated to have remained on farms in thé state on July 1, 1928. The small carry-over is due principally to the much smaller 1923 crop as compared with the 1922 crop. Oats, Barley, and Rye The general prospect for oats and barley is comparable with that for . spring wheat. The present upward trend in condition has carried the July 1 forecast for oats 7.9 million bushels higher and for barley 3.2 million bushels higher than the fore- . cast of a month ago. ee COWS USE.

SUBSIDIES NOT- APPROVED BY COMMISSION —— Dublin, July 14. (A. P.)—The commission of inquiry into Irish tagriculture, in its final report, finds a serious depression in farm- ing. The farmer, the report de- clares, receives for his produce 40 percent higher than before the war, but his cost of living has risen b: 80 percent and his trade expenses in some cases by over 100 percent. Education and organization are the two chief remedies suggested by the commission, and the state is urged to devote considerable sums to these purposes. The com- mission is opposed to subsidies or beunties, which in an agricultural country would, they say, simply mean transferring the money from one pocket of the farmer to the other. Reduction of railway freights and development of water transport are recommended.
