WHEAT IN GOOD CONDITION
Yield of Winter Wheat Estimated at
Six Hundred and Nineteen
Million Bushels.
SLIGHT LOSS SINCE DECEMBER j
WASHINGTON. April 7. Prospects of
the winter wheat crop, planted last fall
on th greatest acreage In the country's
history, were that 09.000,000 bushels would
be produced. This estimate by the De
partment of Agriculture today, passed on
tho condition of the growing crop on
April L may be increased or decreased,
according to the changes In' conditions
from that date to time of .harvest.
Winter wheat condition on April 1 waa
88.S per cent of a normal, against 96.6
last year and 89.6, the ten-year average,
the Department of Agriculture announced
today. There was a gain of .8 point
from last December, compared with an
average decline of 107 points In the. last
ten rears.
Rye condition was 89.1 per cent of
normal, against 91.8 last year and SO.L
the ten-year average.
The crop reporting board Issued this
statement:
"The par, or 100 per cent normal condi
tion of wheat on April 1 may txi regarded
as equivalent to approximately 16.9 bush
els an acre planted; hence a condition of
88.8 would Indicato 15 bushrts, which on
the 41,263,000 acres planted would give a
total production of 619,000,000 bushels as
compared with a final estimate of 684,
990,000 bushels last year, 623.(61,000 bushels
two years ago, 399,919.000 bushels three
years ago and 430,663,000 bushels four
years ago..
"In forecasting thla quantity, 619,000,000
bushels, it should be considered as the
amount of which the probability Is about
equal that the outturn will be above
or below it; the crop will be larger or
smaller than this amount, according as
the changes in condition from now to
harvest are better or worse than average
changes from April 1 to harvest.
"In a general way the wheat crop suf
fered more than the average In the At
lantic coast states as a result of a cold,
dry, windy March., without adequate
aonw covering; in the central states east
of the Mississippi river the crop de
clined slightly ' through the winter, but
not more than usual; reports of preval
ence of Hessian fly are made from many
places In, this section, which gives some
apprehension.
"Great ; improvement in the condition
was made - In' the western part of the
grain bolt, namely, In Nebraska, Kansas
and Oklahoma, which caused a general
average condition on April 1 slightly
higher than on December L although
the average of the last ten years on
April 1 was 17 points lower than on De
cember L - In the Pacific northwest large
yields are anticipated."
Germans No Longer
Hurl Epithets at
the Indian Troops
(Correspondence of the Associated Press.)
LONDON. March 27.--Durlng the Boxer
war In China the Germans applied the
epithet of coolies to the Indian contin
gent serving with the British expedition,
and the memory of that Insult Is one of
the reasons for the loyalty of the Indian
army In the present war, declared Lieutenant-Colonel
A. C Tate In a lecture be
fore the Royal Society of Arts, at which
Viscount Jamea Bryce, former ambas
sador at Washington, presided.
Colonel Yatc further stated that the
Indian army serving in France and Flan
ders had even two months ago a casualty
list of 10,000 names, Including 288 British
officers, and the contingent Is not a large
one. He knew of one corps which by
Christmas had loaf 76 per cent of Its
original effective.
Viscount Bryoe said the devotion of the
Indian troops at the front.' their courage
and endurance was one of the redeeming
Incidents In a "time so full of sorrow.
This war, he thought, would create new
ties between 'Britain and India and put
the two countries en. a surer foundation
of mutual, understanding 'and respect
Speaking of . the composition of . the
Indian army. Sir Thomas Holdleh snid
that he did no believe that If Rumania,
Greece and Italy were to Join Belgium,
France , and .Britain, would there be so
large an admixture of totally distinct
nationalities as may now be found In
the Indian corps. '

WO EN IOSBERO, March 7. The dif

a Prussian soldier who has been through
the long compaJgn. ills company waa en
trenched near one of the Musurlen lakes,
when three Russian companies attempted
a surprise attack by creeping over the
ice. The assault waa discovered and re

by the simple expedient of breaking up
the Ice with heavy .thee Is, so that their
opponents drowned.
Clad in their heavy uniforms and
