Crops and Prosperity.

In his summary Of the business out
to the outlook for big crops and the
effect upon general conditions. II IS
true that the crops will not be entirely
free from danger by frost for another
three or four weeks; and this being an
exceptionally cool season such contin-
gency is the more imminent. Some
diminution of the splendid indications
of the last government crop report,
however, need caus- no surprise should
it come. According TO the August
government report the outlook is for
the largest crop Of corn on record. the
second largest crop of wheat, a big oats
crop and a large cotton crop, the yield
of many other crops also being above
the average. If We have crops of
$50 COG. 900 bushels of wheat and 2,5G0,-
100000 bushels of corn, there will. be
enormous traffic in store for the rail-
roads; the corn crop in the form Of live
stock, etc, alone being a big item in
the freight bills. But Mr.. Clews holds
that the farmers are likely to benefit
even more than the railroads; and.
allowing for declines in prices or injury
by frost, the growers Of wheat, corn
and cotton are almost sure to receive
between $2OO0G0,000 ana $500, 900 zoe.
more this year than last for their
crops. What will be the effect of such
a harvest upon business? Mr.. Clews
answers it as follows: Inevitably it
must prove q very great stimulus: and
all accounts from the West are notice
able for confidence and expectations Of
another year of prosperity. Unfortu-
nately these prospects are not fully
shared in the East, where strikes have
checked Improvement and in the South
progress is less pronounced. Yet there
is a large home demand for foodstuffs.
and we are likely TO find a good export
inquiry for our corn and cotton, though
Europe is not in as great need of our
wheat as last year"

The death of Charles A. Fair and his
wife in an automobile accident raises
an interesting point at law To whom
shall their millions go? Whether the
fortune goes to the heirs Of one or TO
those of the other depends on which
died first. Though curious. the ques-
ton is not new nor the answer difficult.
1t has frequently come up in the case
of apparently simultaneous deaths in
shipwreck, railway calamity, fire, and
so on. In the absence of evidence
there is recognized presumption of law
that the weaker succumbed first, and a
woman is supposed to be weaker than
a man, child than an adult, and an
old person than one in the prime of
life.

making personal investigation of this
matter, and has written several valu-
able articles for his journal upon the
topic, sums up his findings as follows:
First, that from one-tenth to one
fifth of the total number of cotton
operatives are mere children. Second,
that they work from eleven to twelve
hours a day. Third that they are PAID
from 10 to so cents a day. Fourth, that
boys and girls from fourteen to
eighteen make from 80 to 10 cents a
day. Fifth. that adults rarely make
over a dollar a day, and that on piece
work. Sixth, that the chlidren's work,
though not heavy, is grinding and
nerve-raclling Seventh, that the con-
slant buzz of whirring wheels, the nigh
terpera ture. and Initiated air-condi-
tions inseparahle from cotton mills
wear down the stoutest frame and
strongest nerves, and the children so
employed ere long lose the bright eye,
healthy glow. and elastic step which is
the common heritage of youth. Eighth,
that in many cases these urchins are
held in HOPELESS bondage to their illit-
crate heartless, and avaricious par
ents. Ninth, that the normal order OF
things is. alas, too often inverted. and
the saddening spectacle presented OF
weak children supporting able-bodied
parents, in lieu of parents supporting
their offspring. Tenth, that not one
out of twenty Of such toilers can read

II is said that the irrigation schemes
in Egypt are having a sad effect upon
the ancient monuments of that land
1t has always been an arid land, and
the effect of more moisture in the air
is to crUmble the monuments, tombs,
ruins and sphinXes. The effacing fin
gers of decay are busy there wiping
out the few remaining records of the
wonderful civilization that the shores
OF the Nile knew. many centuries be
fore the Christian era. tt seems a pity.
but the goth century deems irrigation
with Its larger harvests worth more
than the sphinxes of antiquity.
