Those medicines which live for even

that time to the present it has grown
in the confidence and estimation of its
yearly increasing number of users.
Through all these years it has steadily
grown in popular favor.

shown in the experience of Mrs. (J. JE.

Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup and

I >erfect health and weigh 165 pounds.

Fanners Can "rh:! f.lcrs Wheat
Dr. Andrew M. Soule, chairman of
the fourth zone and federal food ad
ministrator for Georgia, annfiunc.es
that the United States food adminis
tration has finally approved the ef
fort the Georgia administration has
been making for some time, whereby
the 30 days’ flour rule, as applied to
farmers who grow thdir own wheat,
is abrogated in the fourth zone and
farmers are, on and after this date,
allowed to take a three months’ sup
ply of wheat flour on a basis of 12
pounds per person per month for fam
ily and tenants.
This step has been taken to encour
age a greater production of wheat by
the fanners and the even further en
couragement is held out in the ap
proval by Washington of a plan where
by, when there is. a sufficient quan
tity of home-grown wheat being milled
by local concerns, public eating places
and the householders are to be re
leased from the voluntary pledge not to
use any wheat products.

agriculturally during the war and will
be in a position to store up a reserve
against the time when many men still
"ttgaged in farming may be called into
he army and other war work.
The importance of this reserve was
indicated by a cable recently received
from the British ministry of food, askr
ing that America continue to send all
the food that can be given shipping
space, to build up a like reserve in
Britain against possible lean years
to come. With this demand, it is im
possible for the United States, even in
the face of a good crop, to go back
in any way to pre-war habits of eat
ing and wasting.
A total wheat yield of 931,006,000
bushels is indicated in the recent De
partment of Agriculture forecast, based
on conditions June 1. The winter
wheat estimate is 587,000,000 bushels,
or 40,000,000 more than the December
forecast. The spring wheat yield is
estimated at 344,000,000 bushels. The
total of the two will be an increase
of 122,000,000, or 15%, over the aver
age crop for the years 1912 to 1916,
and a jump of 280,000,000 bushels, or
43%, over last year’s yield.
The oats crop is estimated at 1,-
500,000,000 bushels, which is 87,000,-
000 bushels less than was harvested
last year, but 204,000,000 bushels more
than the average CFop. Record crops
of barley and rye are indicated in
estimates of 235,000,000, and 81,-
000,000 bushels, respectively. The hay
crop is expected to be larger than last
year, although the acreage 69,531,000,
shows a slight decrease.
The acreage of wheat this year, 58,-
881,000, is 28.2% greater than last
year, much of it froiji virgin land. Win
ter and spring wheat acreage show in
creases of 32.7% and 21.5% respective
ly. The acreage planted to rye is prac
tically one-third greater than last year.
Oats and barley show smaller in
creases.
The apple crop is estimated at 203,-
000,000 bushels, 16% greater than last
year, but 5.1% less than the average.
The peach crop estimate for this year
falls 4.9% below last year and 13.5%
below the average.
Italy Depends On Imported Food
Although crop conditions in Italy
are reported as generally favorable and
the area sown to cereals about equal
to the pre-war average, home-grown
food and imports combined are still In
sufficient to meet demands.
