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

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. S.
winter wheat acresgo seeded last full
is 44,37!), moo acres. 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.

principal winter wheat .producing
