While the cropM of America and her
Allies promise this year to break all
r?"cords for size, those of t!erman>
and her Allies will be smaller than at
any time since the war began. Widespread
drought enveloped the t'entral
empires during April. May and June,
which, combined with the intense heat
and an unseasonable frost during the
ttrst live da>s of June, stopped the
develo|tment of all the vegetables and
roots so urgently needed by the Teutons.
The first destroyed one-third ol
the potato crop, especially in the
northern part of the country. 1 Vus
and beans were also seriously damaged.
At the same time, the heat and
drought increased the ravages of all
kinds of pestiferous insects, so the
crop of apples and pears will Is- insignificant.
It also delayed the wheat
crop and with the failure of Itouniania
and the Ukraine to deliver the expected
wheat. Germany is in a Igul
way. On the other hand. America's
wheat crop will exceed S00.000.000
bushels, if it doesn't reach the billion
bushel mark predicted earlier in the
season. The corn crop forecast will
be 3.160.000.000 bushels, breaking all
records. The oat crop also will be a
bumper one. Canadian crop estimates
dlfTer. owing to the fact that the
wheat country is so vast and enjoys
varying weather, but Indications are
for a record crop for our northern
ally also. Hngltsh crop exports report
favorably on the prospects for
this year, and good crops in the tinin
vnded portions of France, with an
avemge yield in Holland and Spain,
are predicted. Italy, it Is anticipated,
will produce 164.000.000 bushels of
wheat as against 140.000.000 hushcls

An outstanding feature of the great

of the ldg drives have been preceded
