Farrell, chief of the wheat section, said. Expectaâ€" tions were that the acreage would be held to 43,000,000 acres by the signers of voluntary contracts. i However, Farrell explained, beâ€" cause of the heavy abandonment and low yields in prospect, the Adâ€" ministration‘s hopes will probably be fulfilled. t Po otas oo Aceet mt Because of the outlook the board predicted that abandonment of acre. age already seeded will be about 18 per cent. This is not as high as the 1934 abandonment of 21.3 per cent., but is considerably above the 10â€" year average of 12.2 per cent. Condition of the crop on Dec. 1 was estimated at 77.8 per cent. of normal compared with 74.3 per cent, on the same date last year, and the 10â€"year average of 82.4 per cent. Drought which scourged the wheat area this year, was held responsible for the poor showing of the crop. Lighter planting of spriny wheat was also forecast by the Crop Reâ€" porting Board, due to "a tendency to expand winter wheat acreage" in the area in which both winter and spring wheat are planted.
