Wilson on crop Conditions

Washington, Sept. 10 Secretary
Wilson. who returned last night from a
trip thru the west, summarized the
agricultural conditions In the states
he visited. These states included Me-
braska, KANSAS, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana
and Ohio. FIe said there was q great
abundance Of crops generally in that
region. There will be good corn
CROP he said Corn now is SUBJ
stantially out of the way of the frost.
THE corn crop in parts of Kansas,
Nebraska ard Indiana is probably the
finest on record. There has been more
hundreds of millions Of dollars de-
pending on the ripening of this crop
this year than the ordinary person has
ever realized. While the crop is lit
tie bit late, any danger OF its failure
can now be considered over The crop
is a good one. While 1t may not be
record breaker, the quality of the corn
lis splendid and. with the exception Of
the southern states, the yield per acre
is very heavy. In the south the drouth
has somewhat affected the corn crop.
The wheat crop of the west this
year is also very fine, and what may
be considered as really the most Inn
portant crop Of all-the grass crop
is exceedingly good. The census tells
us there has been a great increase
during the past ten years in the num-
Der of cattle In the United States. This
information, taken together with the
fine crop OF grass, insures lower prices
of meat. / don't believe the price of
meat, however, will ever be as low as
it has been in the past for the simple
reason that the American people are
more prosperous than ever before and
are eating more meat than ever before
However, the exceedingly high prices Of
meat will be a thing of the past as
soon as the present feeders get fatten-
ed up to beef condition. Another
thing that will tend to keep the price
of meat a little above the former lower
prices is the demand of England for our
meats"

any damage to corn. While the crop
is not altogether out of danger mos

and that unless 1t is followed. by one
more severe frost the crop will mature
all right. The early. planting is out Of

THE USE OF THE WEED.
Dealers Differ as to Decline of To-
baccO Chewing Habit.

baccO Chewing Habit.
Whether tobacco chewing is on the
decline in Savannah is a question on
not agree. The consensus of opinion
seems to be that there is not as much
of the weed used in that way as there
was, say twenty years ago, but there
is no unity of opinion as to the pres
ent compared with the last three or
four years.
One dealer said that he did not no.
tice any increase or decrease in the
general amount, but that there seem
ed TO be a tendency toward the sweet
or navy plugs away from the natural
leafs. OF course, he added, there is
a constant rise and fall in the popu-
barity of brands, each of which has
its day, long or short, as it may be,
but sooner or later it is superseded by
some better advertised brand or one
that has caught the chewers' fancy
for the time being. But my experience
is that there is in Savannah a steady
increase in the use of tobacco of all
kinds, and while I have not compared
the smoking with the chewing, l think
the proportion is about maintained.
Another. who has been in the trade
for a good many years, says that there
is a gradual decrease in the amount
chewed, and that each year it grows
less, while the use of cigars grows
more common. This, he explains, is
relatively speaking. While the dealer
may sell more, the amount is smaller
compared to the growth of the city in
size and population,
The other dealers say about the
same thing. and those who have been
thinking that one of mans bad habits
Is on the wane, must look elsewhere
for a subject for graduation.
