'De. serted Aereages" producing Large Amount. Topeka, Kan., Aug. 2.-Stories of sudden wealth in the Kansas wheat belt are numerous this year, due to the unusual acreage of "volunteer iwheat," a cro) grown from seeds 1which fall in the previous harvesting. Officially estimated there was 1,500,000 acres of volunteer wheat in Kansas this year, or about a sixth of the total harvested acreage. This wheat yield ed probably 10,04.10,000 bushels or rep resenting a monetary value of about $100,000,000. The total Kansas crop of wheat is estimated officially at 150, 0(0000 bushels. The large aeruage of volunteer wheat is due to the fact that a great deal of this acreage was deserted as wheat land. by the owners, after last year's nene too bountiful crop had been harvested. The 1919 acreage was in excess of I1,ot00Ij(m, by far the record for any state in the union. A wet fall caused the kernels of wheat A hieh had fallen to the groundt during the iarvestii , to gerininate.
