CROPS OF YEAR
SHOW DECREASE
OVER YEAR AGO
Waashington, Aug. 13. (AP)
Despite an increased area of
2.6 per eent planted to principal
crops this year, total production
was estimated today by the de
partment of agriculture as 3 per
cent lower than last year due t
decreased yields per acre.
But for the increased area, of
ficials said today, there might
have been a serious crop short
age in the United States.
yields per acre showed a re
duction for all principal crops of
6.4 per cent compared with th'
ten year average and 4.5 per
cent under last years crop. Pros
pects for yields, the department
said, had not been so low at thli
time of year in the last twelve
years with the exception of 1921
The decrease was attributed main
ly to drought in the corn belt
and southwestern s.tes.
The only crops showing in
creased yields per acre were giv
en by tho department as spring
wheat, which is expected to run
over the five year average yield
per acre by about one tenth of a
bushel.
Among the crops showing a re
duction in yield per acre com
pared with the ten year average
are: :
Potatoes 3.5 per cent: apples
11 per cent; barley 1.7 per cent;
flax 1.2 per cent; tame hay 16.3
per cent; corn .9 per cent; oats
3.2 per cent.
The lowest yield per acre was
reported from Texas with C3.6
per cent of the ten year average
and the highest from Nevada
with 114 per cent.

CONS MAKE GOOD
THEIR GET-AWAY
(Continued from page jne)
offico to be operating under Guard
Gardner, but inquiry revealed that
they had split into several parties
and Gardner did not know where
they were. George L. Cleaver,
former state prohibition commis
sioner, and four men were con
ducting still unother campaign.
Nn Clews Renorted.
Added la all of thene, innumer
able groups of (arm erg and other
volunteers seeking excitement
were wnderin here and there,
but "o cb-ws were reported.
About 10 o'clock this morning
Deputy Warden Li Hey left for the
scene of tlie hunt to suo It some
more effective organization could
not be effected that would
ordinate the efforts of all, and
trv to eliminate some of the
volunteers.
Prison authorities looking back
over tlie previous t tempt of
Murray and Kelly to escape this
afternoon oxprossed the opinion
that tiie fugitives would likely
adopt the same tactics they used
upon t he former occasion, lie in
hiding during daylight and travel
at night, also doing their foraging
for food under the cover of dark
ness by robbing country stores or
raiding farm houses. According
to these calculations the. convicts
are not yet sufficiently hungry to
risk showing themselves, but will
likely do so as eoon as It becomes
dark enough for them to travel
safely tonight.
Tactics of Ksrnneq
The officers are also inclined to
Blvo credance to the argument
that It Is entirely likely that the
threo will work their way south
ward toward Aumsvllle, a dis
tance of nine or ten miles, the
scene of their former hide-and-
seek game with the posses.
I-rom Aumsvllle south through
tho Marion country to Jefferson
the country Is all familiar to Mur
ray who evaded tho officers for a
full week In that section.
Another theory being considered
is that the men will remain close
to their present hiding place for
several days- until the enthusiasm
of searcherH has waned and their
vigllaneo relnxed and then steal
nnolher automobile and make a
night attempt to get out of the
country entirely.
Tracy Escape Rccnllcd
All of the officers aro agreed
that tho situation is a potential
duplication of tho Tracy-Merrill
rampage of J!02, nnd that Mur
ray, at least, Is as dangerous as
either Tracy or Merrill. Warnings
aro being broadcasted at farmers
and county stores to be on guard
u nil limes, for another murder
or two means nothing to the con
victs now.
District Attorney John Cnrann
Sheriff Bower and their aides were
nt the prison this morning gather
ing evidence for tho charges of
murder to he brought attains! the
convicts If they are recaptured.
