MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOKD. OREGON. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21. 3934. PAGE FIVij; 6 PER CENT BOOST IN . WINTER WHEAT SEEDINGJSSHOWN Tendency to Expand Plant ing May Lead to Curb On Spring Seeding Soil Still Too Dry in Drought Area WASHINGTON. Dec. 31. (AP) Pro duction of winter wheat next year was estimated today at 475,000,000 bushels by the department of agri culture on the baa Is of seeding and condition of the crop on December I. An Increase of 0 per cent over 1933 seedings shou-n in the important winter wheat states of the great plains area, the crop reporting board said. "In the 1934 drought area, fchere forage and pasture were se verely reduced, some of the fall seed ing is probably 'attributable to seed ing for pasture. . Expansion Seen "In some of the states there ap pears to be a tendency to expand win ter wheat acreage which, If carried through the winter, would lead to reduction in spring wheat seeding next spring. "Dry soil conditions still continued in the western part of these states from Kansas to Texas. "The condition of the crop on De cember 1 indicates - that abandon ment of winter wheat will again be above average. Based on past rela tionships, it appears that abandon ment of 1934 seedings will be in the neighborhood of 18 per cent. "Abandonment of the 1933 seed ings was 21.3 per cent, and the 10 year average Is 13.2 per cent. "A comparatively low yield per acre also is Indicated by the condition and weather studies which indicate a winter wheat production to be har vested In 1935 of about 475,000.000 bushels. The 1933 crop was 405,034, 000 bushels and the five-year aver age Is 632.061,000 bushels." Conditions.
