Prof. Robert Wallace, professor of
agriculture and rural economy in
Edingburg University, Scotland, af-
ter four months investigation of In
dia the past summer, tells US that the
fear of competition from this source
has been largely exaggerated. He
says it is a mistake to think that the
Indian area in wheat will increase in
tho next ten years In the same ratio
as it has the past five years. It will
increase gradually, butthe difficulties
in the way will prevent any such de-
velopment Of exports Jas has caused
so much alarm of late. The late
rapid growth of the wheat crop has
been due to the fact that much of it
was produced on land previously oc-
cupied for some other crop. This
substitution cannot 60 on much long
or, for the teeming millions Of that
empire must have food to live n,and
only in the newer parts Of the country
can the wheat area be much further
extended. There are great difficult
ties Of developing new sections in that
country: First because 1t Is hard to
get workmen to settle in new districts,
and secondly, there Is want of money
and want Of necessary extra supply
of power. Again, since wheat re-
quires reasonably dry land, failures
must occur every few years in the
moist climate of that country. A con-
tinuous growth OF wheat on lands
heretofore cropped with leguminous
plants, such as clover, etc., In also
tending to exhaust the soil, and the
yield of wheat per acre Is bound to
diminish. Prof. Wallace concludes
by warning people to beware OF In
dian wheat statistics, which are COM.
piled from returns made by practical
wheat growers, and are based to coD-
siderable degree on guess-work. This
report from so eminent and disinter-
ested authority will be of interest TO
every whsat-grower in America AZ
showing that Indian wheat i not to
usurp the place Of American wheat in
the foreign market -Americsn Agri-

Der of that party since its organiza-

while advocating the principles of the
party of which we have been so long

first duty the advocacy of what seems
the best interests of Morris and Ste

make the TRIBUNE live local paper,
holding oursslf at all times in rsadi-

undertaking that promises to result
in the advancement and prosperity of
our new home. We come among you
stranger, but hope by strict atten-

ceiye that encouragement and support
! which Mr.. Randall has so kindly be-
spoken for us. It will require some
little time for us to become sufficient

TRIBUNE in every respect welcome
visitor to their homes; but should we

to, a better acquaintance will enable
US to make the paper more interest

that his reception will be cordial and
that the patronage of the TRIBUNE
under his management will be liberal,

as the years go by that he has made
no mistake in Investing his money

Morris and Stevens county.
In taking leave Of the TRIBUNE, 1t
is but natural to indulge in BRIEF
retrospection. During the past six
years aud over that have had the
management of the TRIBUNE, the
subscription list and general business
of the paper has been steadily extern
. ded and the material in the office has
been largely increased. This develop
ment is source of qualification to me
and I believe an item ofinterest to the
many loyal patrons who aided in pro-
ducing 1t. That mistakes have been
made, frankly admit and sincerely
regret, but as they were owing to
faulty judgment rather than perver-
ted intention, I hope they will not be
too strongly remembered against me.
If, on the whole, the paper has
proven satisfactory; if it has added
anything to general public develop
ment; and if its patrons now feel that
they have received their moneys
worth, I can turn the paper over feel
ing satisfied. Without further re-
mark I bid TRIBUNE readers, good by.
