production are Missouri. Indiana. Ohio, and Illinois. About 16.- 
1 H N 0,000 acres of this class of wheat are grown annually in the United 
States, comprising over 30 per cent of the total wheat acreage. In 
1919, as shown in Table 55, the acreage was almost 21,000.000. The 
distribution of soft red winter wheat in the United States in 1919 is 
shown in Figure 8.
