248,750,000 pounds. Thds is the same .friends and relatives in Washington,
as estimated production on August i
A crop of 248,760,000 pounds, if

or 2i.l per cent less than the 1951
crop and 16.9 per cent below the 1941.
60 average production. ;. (
Yield per acre Is currently esti
mated at 1,260 pounds from 199,000
acres. This compares with the rec
ord yield of 1,330 pounds last year
and the 10-year average yield of 1,
090 pounds. . -

hot weather damaged peanuts much
less than any other principal erop.

appears to have occurred.
Soybean Prospects - 4
Not Much -Improved 1
The outlook for soybean produc
tion on September 1 showed consider
able improvement over a month ago,
according to the State-IFederal Crop
Reporting Service. Based on growers'
September 1 reports, a yield of 15
bushels , is currently estimated. This
compares with a yield of 16.5 bushels
in 1951 and the 1941-50 average of
' 12.8 bushels.
August weather brought much need
ed rainfall to the important soybean
producing areas of the State. In some
sections, insects, principally army
worms, had infested the crop and were
doing .considerable damage to foli
age. (Weather from now through
harvest still holds a major role in
determining the outcome of the crop.
Current indications are that a total
of 303,000 acres will be harvested forj
beans this year which will be a record
high acreage and compares with 300,
000 acres in 1951 and the 1941-50. av
erage of 243,000 acres. ;
