In England the acreage sown to winter wheat is 56 per cent greater than two years ago, while the prospect for the crop is better than in Other plantings are many years, equally good in prospect Scotland re turns a similar report, the spring sow ing there exceeding former years, both In extent and condition. Weather con ditions have been especially favorable for farm work of all kinds. Ireland is not reported on In detail, but the dis turbances over there have had the sin gular effect of stimulating agricultural effort and more land Is being tilled than was used last year. France will have a better wheat yield, according to the present outlook, although the sown acreage Is still smaller because of the scarcity of help.
