WASHINGTON. Sept. 2. The world's
hop crop for 1U la estimated to bo
44.000.000 pounds below that of 1(10.
and about 55.0f 0.0OO pounds elow tha
average for the last 10 years, accord
ing to advices received from abroad
by the Government crop statistician
at Washington. Tha total product thla
year will hardly reach 131.000.000
pound, aocordlnr to Consul Joseph L
Brlttain. of Prague. Bohemia. Hops
hav aold as high aa 1 oent par
pound, according to thla report.
In hi report to thla Government.
Consul Brlttain ay:
"Owing to the unusual dryness that
ha lasted for more than two month,
the hop harvet will be very small thla
year. Not only haa tha weather been
extremely dry. but the mercury haa
reglatered aa high aa ltO degreea in
the sun, which is very unusual for Bo
hemia. "Within tha paat few weeks the stock
of old hops on hand haa advanced as
much ss 100 per cent In price, ow
ing; partly to the fact that an unusual
amount of beer ha been aold during
the hot weather, the stock of som
brewer having been entirely exhaust
ed. The hop crop of Bohemia, espe
cially In th Saas district, suffered less
than that of any other hop-raialng
country In Europe, and Bohemian hope
are conaequently In great demand.
Crop la Xet Laraje.
"Tor the Saas district the crop la es
timated at (.100.000 to t.tOO.OQO pound,
against 1I.TOO.000 pound In 110. The
district of Ausha Bohemia la less prom
ising, th crop being estimated at 1.
700.000 pounds as compared with 7.
410.000 pound th previous year. In
the Dauba district tha yield la placed
at 110.000 to 440.000 pound aa airainst
a crop or 1.320,000 pounds In 110. In
tha remaining section of Austria-Hungary
tha crop Is estimated as follows:
For Gal Ids, tOO.000 to 1.100.000 pound;
Ftyr-a. l.tlO.000 pound: Hungary. 1.
180.000 to 1.200.000 pound; Moravia.
440.000 to 600.000 pounds. Thua th
maximum estimate for Austria-Hungary
would be lt.lEO.000 pounds,
whereaa the total for 1110 waa 11.
180,000 pounds:
A greater decline Is expected in tha
German crop, where the crop la esti
mated st 20.000.000 pounds, while In
1010 it was about 44.000.000 pounds. In
Franca the yield Is estimated at 4.(50,

4.050.000 pound; Russia, (.000,009
pound; England, from 80.SOO.000 to
15.100.000 pounda. England consume
over (4.000,000 pound annually, hence
to a great extant must depend upon
Imports.
"The world's hop crop for 1(11 Is es
timated at 112.000,000 pounds, or about
44.000,000 pound below that of 1(10.

hops have been selling this year aa

apply Below Demaae.
Ths hop situation In England la thus
summarised from a recent report pub
lished by tha London Financial Tlmea:
"For aome years the average prices
for hops hare been ao unremunerattve
that many growers could not continue
to grow hops, and tha position pre
dicted haa arrived. In which the supply
Is considerably below the demand and
consumers have to face the unique fact
that the world'a atock la practically

not equal to lta requtrementa, and

that remained, and ao atrlngent Is
