AiiKiist 21.-Krom tlie outslile us well us within the ('. S. Department of Agriculture during re cent ears have come sukk'sIIoiis as lo I he di Nirabllity of obtaining Infor ' iiuilion on the probable crop acreage lo lie planted, this data to be avail able long enuiiKh before actual plant ing time to In more or lens of a guidti lo the farim-r as to the kind of crop he should plan t. particularly In re gions where there is a considerable diversity of. crops. The first 'attempt ut serurlng thW sort of information was an "Intention to Plant" lniiiry sent out early In (lie spring of l!H.1. The results from this Inciuiry were so Hatlnl'aeiory to Die iH'pariment officials, that It was decided lo make a similar inquiry rel ative to farmers' Intentions to plant winter wheat and ryn In the fall of 10-It. Accordingly a schedule of in quiry was sent out to many thousand ' farmers in the winter wheat growing districts. Iteplies to these schedules of inquiry have been tabulated to the. number of about L'.S.oimi for the foi led Htutes as a whole. While tiie number of schedules re ceived Is not u very large percentage of the total nuoiher of wheat grow ers, it Is helievrid that they are fair ly represenlatlvo of the intentions of the growers in general as of August 1, I!23. The (iri-Kon schedules received Indicated un Intention lo plant this jfall about itS.n per cent of the winter wheat acreaKo of, last year. 1-or the 1'nited States as a, whole the intended plantings thin- fall' are only M..1 per ,cent of a ytnr ago.- The 'revised estimate of the V.

The abandon ment of tli. 1!)'J fall seeding was esti mated last May nt H.S per cent, leav ing a;i,7fio,inM acres for the liCtt har vest. The prospective acreage for this fall, assuming a If. 5 per cent re duct ion over last fall's acreage, Is about Slt.lMKi.non, which, is slightly less than the crop remaining for har vest this season, after making allow ance for nbandoment, J-'or tho past ten years the average ahandomcnt of the full seeded acreage of wheat is practically In. a per cent. Assuming, an average abandonment of this fall's i prospective seeding, tho acreage for, harvest in lfl3 should be around 3f, 3(ui, aaa acres, which p , j7, Ja.ii.OOO 1 ath-es, b'KK ; than :-tHe 1 yjK-j'i'22 1 five ! year average of 42.ii3fi.ono acres, and practically the same as the 1914-1918 five year average of 3ft.2M'.(iO(i acres.
