A LARGE CORN CROP.
This Years Yield Will Be One of
the Largest in Our History.
MEATS ARE LIKELY TO BE HIGH.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson Thinks
There VIII Be Lively Demand for
tho Farmers Products Outside
of the United States.

Chicago, Oct. 9.-Secretary of Agri-
culture James Wilson, who is in this
city with the presidential party said
yesterday:
This years corn crop will be one OF the largest
in our history. The total yield, it is estimated.
will be between $500 900 and 1900 100000 OF
bushels. There will be plenty of manufacture
ing and feeding and we will have all the corn
TO sell that anybody wants to buy. To what ex-
tent the crop will be shipped abroad will de-
pend largely upon the price IL will bring. The
high prices offered for meats will incline the
farmers 10 use their crop for feeding purposes.
Continuing on the prospects for good
prices Secretary Wilson said:
Where stock is TO. be found the corn will be
fed, unless the price be high. considerable
percentage OF the crop will be cribbed, as the
farmers generally are well on and getting good
prices for their products, so they can afford to
hold their corn crop.
Meats are likely to be high because in the last
few years our population has grown faster than
the meat producing animals. Then, lnJudicious
grazing on the semi-ard regions of the west
has been destructive, and many Of those range
states do not have over 30 per cent. OF the ami
mails they had % years ago steady demand
outside OF the United States for first class
meats on the quarter and on the hoof and
growing demand not onlyacross the Atlantic,
but In the countries In and around the Pacific,
for American canned meats is playing an i'm
portant part in influencing high prices The
demand is growing In the Orient for animal
products and growing rapidly.
The British In the Transvaal war, should 1t
occur, will want our canned meats. They can
not use our refrigerated meats over there and
in order to feed their soldiers as well as the
United States feeds hers they would have to
take quarters to Cape OF Good Hope In re-
frigerating vessels and then establish plant
for the caring for chilled meats similar TO the
one the United States has at Manila. They
must have canned meats and they must come "a
Chicago to get them.
All this talk we have heard about embalmed
beef will not change this order of feeding
troops. They may avoid the kinds that do not
have salt in them known rs canned roast beef,
and this may result in salt being used In this
preparation but the fact remains that armies
require canned when they cannot get chilled
beef. The United States Is the only country
prepared to supply IL and the growing demand
for II In all quarters Of the globe will help 10
keep up the price OF meats.
