Are we in the midst Of hard timese
What Il in store for US within the
next year. Debts are pressing-coi-
lections are slow, with business men.
Money Is scarce with farmers. Hence
many are alarmed. There is really
little need Of alarm. There II ground

reason for keeping out Of debt. The
interests Of the whole country are 50
bound up in the success of our bust
ness men, that, where at all possible,
debts owing them should be promptly
paid, to say nothing about the obliga-
ton to pay.
But comparison of prospects gives
great encouragement. We give some
Of the reasons why We need be encour-
aged:
/. Last season we had q poor corn
crop and wheat crop of moderate yield
and very poor quality, for both Of
which we got a moderate price.
There was also some surplus money
in the country from the crop Of the
year before.
2. This season the amount OF wheat
IL = yeraI bushels less to the acre, il .
poor crop-but the berry is good. In
cash the crop is worth very near as
much per acre as that Of last year
The area sown to wheat this season Is
the smallest yet sown in the country
in proportion to the acres Of land cul-
tiyated.
8. We have a grand supply OF fruit
this year, which will save the coun-
try many thousands Of dollars hereto
fore sent out for fruit
1. The oats crop is fair-barley dit
TO, potatoes splendid.
5. Corn promises to be the biggest
crop ever raised in the country. 1t
will be worth a. much as the crops
Of last year put together. This Is an
under estimate rather than an over
estimate.
8. Hogs bring good price and there
is q good crop There has been very
little disease among the hogs in Cen
tral Iowa this season.
Cattle are increasing from year to
year, and are now bringing a good
price.
:. The past year has seen unusual
economy, and people have fewer debts
to pay than they had last winter by a
big per cent.
s. People are sending out less mon
ey for machinery, insurance, patent
rights, etc.
Taking there and other correspond
ing facts which We might mention,
we confidently predict prosperous
year for our farmers and good year
fuf ouf cuisines. nien. The southern
portion Of the State has . poor corn
crop, as has a large part Of Illinois;
cattle feeding will maintain . fair
price for corn. Let this bright side

Dick Clarkson, in an interesting let
ter 10 the Register, has this TO say Of
the Iowa fruit exhibition at the Cen
tennial Exposition:
Pathological Hall il now we'll filled
with choice fruit. The collection Of
Iowa extends across the center, from
end to end Of the hall, and nearly
across again on the second row Of Ia
ble-. Supt. Bracket secured = capital
location for the Hawkeye fruits, and
| also give 1t greater prominence than
any other State in the huge signs that
are suspended over each table. 1t IL q
grand sight for an Iowan. You can
tell her fruits clear across the building
without looking up for signs, as she
far excels all competitors. California
has been doing her utmost to eclipse
our fruits, and WAS daily sending tele-
grams for better samples and more Of
Them" but the fresh arrivals from
Iowa have discouraged them and they
now reluctantly admit that they can't
beat Us on collection, but claim superb
ority on specialities.
From Supt. Bracket we learn that
Iowa has on exhibition l54l plates,
and 3ic varieties Of apples; lsl plates,
and 50 varieties Of pears; IL varieties
of plums; 10 varieties of grapes; 2 va
rieties Of ounce. These plates occupy
seven tables, each six feet wide and 35
feet long, total length of 245 feet.
The tables have uprising shelves, and
each one is an elongated pyramid of
great beauty. The Polk county collec-
ton of apples fills all of one of the sew
en- tables, on which she exhibits les
varieties, and she is well represented
in the pear collection. Iowa fruit men
have done well, and with similar aid
70 that given by other State Legisls-
lures, their collection would have out
numbered the entire exhibition.
