REAL ESTATE NEWS.

When week In the realty market has been
as dull as the one Just past it is worth while
to try to find the cause In the ordinary course
OF things the present should be the prosperous
time for investors and spectators in real
estate. as "midwinter activity has long been
a watchword with them. Many superficial
reasons are given in explanation OF the present
inactivity. but superficial reasoning cannot eX-
plain away the fact that when the tax vaua-
tionB were announced the realty market was
booming. So substantial was the confidence
in the market that the dealings fell on so
slowly the decline was hardly noticeable until
the details Of the past week brought the true
state of affairs 10 light.
The two real estate organizations OF this city.
the Real Estate Exchange and the Board OF
Brokers. have realized the present condition OF
things and have taken steps to remedy it. if
possible The Real Estate Exchange has ap-
pointed several of its members as n committee
to investigate the assessment question thor
oughly and report. The Board OF Brokers has
decided TO invite TO its dinner this month many
men prominent in real estate circles. who will
discuss the situation and try to suggest some
way OF improving It..
1t was thought at lirst by many brokers that
any publicity given to the increase in tax values
would frighten intending investors, whereas II
no outcry were made conditions would soon
readJust Themselves satisfactorily. The folly
OF this belief has become apparent, and the
Real Estate Exchange and the Board of Brokers
have taken action accordingly. 1t Is impossible
to foresee the results OF their efforts, but the

to come out, but he refused and IL
reverently jeered at her efforts to
reach him. When the father came
home to dinner he was informed OF
the situation and grew wroth as he lis
tened to the ex-parte presentation OF
the case. He would have that boy if
he had to tear the house down, and
started for the attic. 1t was close
work, aud his surprise could not be
expressed in words when the boy, in
stead of covering in corner, came
heartily to his assistance.

Love is divided into quarters-one-

1t makes woman shudder to think
how happy she could have made you.
When woman is convicted she ac-
quits herself by saying she has been

Youth thinks of love with passion,

with comfort.
When a girl peers into the future

OUR FARMERS IN LUCK.



fore in the Country's History.
The farmers of this country made
more money in 1898 than ever before
in its history. The statistical report
from the department of agriculture
shows unprecedented crops, unpre-
cedented prices and unprecedented
prosperity. The corn crop in 1896
amounted to 2,283, S75, 166 bushels,
valued at $40, 276, O30; in 1897 it was
1902, 967, 933 bushels, valued at $501,-
O72, ,852. In 1898, according to pres
ent estimate, the volume was not only
largely increased, bat the farm value
OF corn throughout the country aver
ages .. 1 cents a bushel moro Shan in
1897.
The VII al exon iD 1895, al y cents
bushel, was valued 4, sl27, 684. 3463
ln 1897 at sos per bushei, it was
valued at s428. 8.5tT121. The increase
in 1898 was !, Al, ,C92 acres, the largest
in history, and the crop was uuprece-
dented in quality quantity and
price.
The barley crop in 1897 was worth
S25, 142, 139 at 81 cents a bushei. The
figures for 1898 are not in yet, but the
price is Al 4 cents a bushel and the
preliminary report shows a crop slight
ly above the average. The same may
be said of rye, which is quoted at 46. 3
cents bushel, against A. IN 1897.
The farm price for oats in 1898, ac-
cording to the official figures of the
agricultural department, is 25.6 cents
bushel, against PIP for 1897 and
49, in 1896. The totals are not in
yet, but in 1897 the crop was valued
at $147, ,974,719
Potatoes are now worth fl. 4 cents
bushel on the farm, which is a large
falling off from 1897, when they sold
for "a. 7 cents, but it is said that the
difference will be more than made up
by the increase in the volume Of the
crop, which is believed to be p Fer
cent. greater than in 1897, when the
total was valued at $6s, 643, 059.
The hay crop of the United States
in 1897 was valued at $40l, 800, 72S,
with hay selling at $e.62 ton. In
1898 the crop was the best on record,
and it is selling on an average Of $6 a
ton throughout the country.
During the calendar year ended
December 81, the value of the bread
stufls sold abroad was S317, 900, 600,
provisions $174, 600, 600 and cotton
S233, 900, 600, making a total of S724,
900, 900 worth of farm products ex-
ported and sold AT better prices than
we're ever known before.
