Largest Percentage of Increase—
Will Beat 1912 Yield.
Washington.—The 1920 corn crop
promisee to be the largest in the his-
, tory of the country by more than 90
million bushels.
A yield of 3,216,192,000 bushels, com-
; pared with the previous record pro-
j duction of 3,124.746,000 bushels in 1912,
I was forecast by the department of ag-
I riculture from a condition of 89.1 on
October 1. The yield would exceed
'hat of last year by practically 300 mil-
lion bushels. Kansas, Nebraska and
Missouri will contribute practically all
of the increase.
Warm and Dry Weather Did It.
Warm and dry September weather,
free from widespread killing rosts,
aided the maturing of the late crop and I
during the month the prospects for
this year were increased by 85 million J
bushels. The frosts near the end of •
month did little damage, and the t
bulk of the crop is now safe, govern-
ment experts said.
Spring wheat is threshing out poorer
than had been forecast because dam-
age, principally from rust, had proved
greater than anticipated. The yield was
estimated at 19 million bushels less
than was forecast a month ago, this
loss reducing the combined winter and
spring wheat yield to 750,648,000 bu-
shels, about 180 million bushels below
the big crop of last year.
Big Increase In Oats Crop.
Threshings of oats confirm the ear-
lier forecast, the indicated yield being
1,444,362,000 bushels, almost 200 mil-
lion bushels more than last year's
yield.
Although the tobacco crop showed a
loss during September of 75 million
pounds in the expected yield, the fore-
cast of 1,478,788,000 pounds is 89 mil-
lion pounds larger than last year's pro-
duction.
A bountiful crop of potatoes also
was forecast, the yield being estimated
at 414,986,000 bushels, an increase of
2,053,000 bushels since September 1.
A Big Gain in Missouri.
Advance information as to the Mis-
souri crop report, given out by the
state board of agriculture and the gov-
ernment crop estimate bureau, places
the jorn crop of the state at 227,428,-
000 bushels, an increase of 52 million
bushels over the 1919 yield.

there is no coal shortage
Wholesale Association Asserts That
the Present High Prices of
Fuel Are Unjustified.
Washington.—High bituminous coal
prices are unjustified and consumers,
who have as much as a month's sup-
ply on hand, should buy only for im-
mediate need, the American Whole-
sale Coal Association advised recently.
There is no danger of a bituminous
coal shortage, the association said,
and indicated that by holding off buy-
ing consumers can cut prices. The
statement of the association was pre-
pared by its executive committee.
"It is the opinion of the committee
that a great change in the whole mar-
ket situation is imminent," the state-
ment said.
Citing reasons for its conclusions,
the association pointed out that C. E
Lesher, formerly statistician of the
United States geological survey, esti-
mated a production of 11 % million
tons of bituminous coal a week until
December will meet an immediate
need and pile up a 40-million-ton sur-
plus.
Riga. An agreement for the sign-
ing of an armistice, preliminary to
peace, not later than Friday, was
reached this evening by M. Joffe and
M. Dombski, heads of the Russian and
Polish delegates, respectively.
M. Dombski told the Associated
Press that details would be made pub-
lic at once. He said the agreement
was on the Palish eleven points decla-
ration, made at the beginning of the
Riga conference after M. Joffe's Mos-
cow declaration.
The financial, economic and military
commissions also are meeting fre-
quently but the vital work is actually
being done by the two chairmen.
There seems to be every reason to be-
lieve that they speedily will reaGh an
agreement if the Moscow and Warsaw
governments do not interfere.
Reports of internal dissensions in
Warsaw are causing uneasiness here,
as there are many indications that M".
Dombski's speedy signature of an ar-
mistice would be a great personal vic-
tory for him. and possibly make of him
such an important political figure in
Poland that the peasant party would
insist on his selection as premier.
There has been no stateemnt con-
cerning extension of the ten dav's util-
matum. which the Bolsheviki made
for the acceptance by Poland of the
preliminary peace terms, but the satis-
factory progress of the negotiations
makes it unlikely that the Bolsheviki
will refuse to grant a reasonable ex-
tension.
Statements made by M. Dombski and
M. Joffe concerning the meeting of 1
the chief commission show there dif-
ferences are not necessarily vital.
Dombski objected to the armstice lin3
definitely fixed by the Russo-Ukrain-
ian delegation, declaring it is different
from the proposition made by Joffe at
the opening session of the Riga con-
ference. He also objected to recogni-
tion of the independence of Eastern
Galicia.

Of tlif conference,
Methodists of Ponca City, who are
starting the construction of a new
$75,000 church at the present time,
will ask the general Oklahoma con-
ference to meet here in 1921. The
invitation will be extended by Rev. C
N. Hewitt, Ponca City pastor, when
he attends the 1920 conference at Fort
Worth, Texas, and he also will take
an invitation from the chamber of
commerce.
T. S. Buchanan, a helium expert
with a company at New York City, has
resigned that position to join the Mar-
land company at Ponca City in the
same capacity. He was a senior lieu-
tenant in the navy during the world
war and had charge of the balloon sec-
tion of the United States naval forces
in European waters. The Marland
company has been planning for some
time the manufacture of helium here.
Fiva industrial sites were optioned
