| Mr.. BooKwALTER' AGRICULTURAL VII
LAsE.-Hon. John W. Bookwalter, New
York millionaire, and former democratic
candidate for Governor of Ohio, has just re-
turned from Nebraska, whore he has been
experimenting arrangements for building
an agricultural village on his sixty thou
sanG-acre tract of land on the plan OF the
agricultural communities in Germany and
Switzerland. "From what could see in
the West" said Mr.. Book walter, ''the
crops of wheat and corn will ba as large or
larger than any in the history of the couu-
try. This will bring on period Of tremen-
dous pros oerity. The prices of wheat and
corn will BE- we'll sustained also, believe.
Throughout the West the elevators in the
sections I visited were bare of wheat and
corn. Last year there was big shortage.
1t will take more than the great crop of
this year to make this up and put Us where
we were before. The day Of low prices for
farm products is over in this country; our
population is catching up to tho point where
we consume nearly what we raise In
TINA we will pass that point, and believe
that liz time we will actually become in-
portsrs of sheat, corn and other cereals.
Our population is increasing vastly, but
the farming lands Of tie United States
can't increase at like ratio because the
supply is limited. The good farming land
of the United States has now about all been
taken up" Mr.. Bookwalter says the
price of farming land all over the West is
going up with rush on account of the fine
crops. The people are rushing from the
cities to the sparsely-s9ttled land of the
West also because of the profitable Quito k
