Press Echoes

The prosperity Of our section bids
fAir to be unexampled before in the
history Of our country. The great
moon which swept over the West Il
few weeks ago, greatly cutting down
the average Of hay and corn crops,
has already CAUSED these products to
be excited.
Corn sold for the first time for
more than WHEAT. Tue outlook is
favorable for still higher prices
While this condition prevails in
the West, here we have the largest
corn crop ever produced since the
war, with possibly one exception,
1875. She summer rains have been
ample. At this moment the outlook
for hay crops was never so fine.
With suitable weather to harvest
the grass, the hay crop of the South
will inure to special and extraordi-
uary benefit to the section.
The inducement to save hay pre-
sents Itself in stronger light than
ever before. 1t behOves farmers to
save their grass to feed to stock dur
ing Winter. A saving of corn, may
be thus effected that will put money
