Crop of 1860.

Crop of 1860.
While some of the Eastern States pro.
duce less abundant crops than in former
years, says the N. Y. COMMERCIAL AID.
vERrIsER, the great Northwest advances
with rapid strides to production which
seems almost incredible. Statistics
carefully prepared and published some
weeks ago in the FINANCIAL CHRoN.
IcLE, show that while the grain product
Of Massachusetts, is 1925 per capita OF
the population and that of New York
SIS, the product of Iowa is S72, while
the average of the Northwest is over
$50 head. The wheat crop of 1863
is estimated at 271 ,00O,0 600 bushels, an
excess of 1OO,0OO,O00 over the crop Of
1868. The corn crop is estimated at
1850, 900, 900 bushels, which is about
300, 900, 900 more than the crop of last
year. In spite of all rumors to the con.
trary, the corn producing belt is up to
the average of former years, and in the
Southern States the yield is large. The
yield Of other crops is estimated as fol-
lows: Rye, 5O,OOO,OOO bushels; oats,
300, 100000 bushels; potatoes, 49,
O0O,O 900 bushels. Add to these, hay,
wool, cotton, tobacco, rice, ETC., and re-
ducc all to fair average valuation, and
we have the following result:
$500 900 900 Potatoea...... 1900 900
wheat.-.~..... $780, 600 Hay. s,ooooo

Barlcy.. 45,oO0OOOi
Ietai. oIO7 aUOOO
In these figures are not included
fruits, vegetables, sugar, butter, cheese,
or slaughtered animals, and these to-
gether would easily make valuation of
s75O,OOO,OOO. To these, again may
other things be added, such as the yield
Of the mines, the forest and the fishery,
and the vast amount of the national debt
is more than equaled; in fact, is almost
doubled.
Such are the results of the labor of a
single year. To be sure much Of this
production forms no part of our perma-
nent wealth. It is consumed and per-
ishes with the using, but it keeps alive
forty millions of people and attracts
other millions from beyond the seas. It
makes this country richer and stronger
every year, for probably at least SO large
a proportion of all this production is
capitalized that the addition annually
to our wealth is one-fourth the amount
Of the national debt. n

When the National Life Insurance Company
of the United States of America commenced
operations about.a year ago, we ventured the
prediction that it would early receive full proof
of popular favor. Newspaper men, even more
than others, are proud when history writes the
fulfllment Of their prophecies.
This perhaps arises from the fact that they
prophecy more than any other people; but wheth-
er so or not is not now our purpose to inquire
This Company has issued 1910 policies in the
very first year Of its labors-three or four times
more than any other Company during the same
period of its history and fifteen times as many as
what is now the largest Company in the world.
Our prophesy was founded careful study
of its character, and knowledge of the men
having it in charge.
The Company is stock Company, with low
rates Of premium, and with experience and
economy in its management. In mutual COM
pany, it is the policy holders only who suffer
when the management is inexperienced or ex-
travagant, when in a stock company the losses
fall altogether on the stakeholder So far as we
have observed the policy holders have nothing
to do with the control of q mutual company and
are rapidly learning that it is cheaper and wiser
to procure insurance where they are not required
to advance money above the actual cost of insur-
ance, with which to pay enormous salaries OF Of
fcers, or to reimburse the company for losses in
premium notes taken in lieu Of cash, but which
can never be collected.
The National Company recognizes this popular
want and meets it. It is well worthy the patron
age it is receiving, and which will undoubtedly
in the future rapidly increase Such, at any rate,
is our second prophecy IN relation to it.

a HINT FOR THE FAIR.

If every man who thought last Fall that he had
something at home better worth showing than
anything of the kind he saw at the County Fair,
will only bring it out this Fall, we shall have a
capital exhibition in all the departments-and
the same remark will apply equally well to the
ladies.
There was some excuse for failing to bring
such things forward last year, as the Fair was a
new thing-but hereafter there will be no such
apology.
Anything not brought to the Fair now will not
do to brag about. It is coming to be understood
that all people and products worth seeing are
sure to be out at our County Fair.
