The Farmers GolAe. Yess.

Western farmers are likely 10 be swamp
ed with money next winter. Reports from
all the great agricultural states OF the
Middle West indicate that the crops now
being harvested and those that are APP
preaching the harvest season win excel
those Of any former year. This IL true in
Illinois and Wisconsin. throughout Iowa.
Missouri. Minnesota, the Dakotas and Me-
braska- From everywhere come reports
Of phenomenal crops. The farmers ara
crying for help for the harvest fields and
are Offering wages that would have seem
Cd impossible a fcw years ago.
Last year Nebraska produced 5000 GO
bushels Of corn. and IL was called . great
crop. TfEs seasons yield 10 estimated Mt
40 90. 90 bushels. or more than double tho
yield OF 1888. The Kansas crop last year
was f3o.oO.ooo bushels. Crop experts cons
puse the yield this year in Kansas At 34e.-
0g.N0 bushels. These figures are gwen
by state officials. FtIll allowances they
say. has been made for damage by grass
hoppers. not winds and other adverse con-
ditions. The same story IL told BY other
corn-erowing states
The wheat crop of the Northwest simply
