 a large increase in the wheat acrea?; ■ 

 woul.1 s.eem inevitable: yet nowhere in 

 Europe dues it appear that such a re- 

 sult has been attained. Tlie weather 

 render»^d it impracticable for farmers 

 to cany mit th,^'r plans in this resp^'ct. 

 It is. indeed, imin-obable that the an'e- 

 a.tte of winter wheat is so large as last 

 year. In parts of Englaiid and parts 

 of Francs? there has been some in- 

 crease. l:.ut in both countnes it is 

 though* doubtful by most observers 

 whether even as much land as last year 

 has been sown to wheat. From Rus- 

 sia and the Balkan States o.ime reports 

 of greatly reduceil acreage; and while 

 the grain crops in the Balkan States 

 ha\e entered the winter in fairly safe 

 condition, the Russian seedlings 

 throughout the great winter wheat re- 

 gion, extending from the extrom.^ 

 southwest to the Caucasus, are m a 

 precarious condition. In Hungary, a■^ 

 well as in the more sonlboastern coun- 

 tries, the plants are largely late suvii
