Americas Giant Crops.

The following interesting facts con-
cerning the cereal crops of the United
States We're taken from an article en-
titled. What American Crops Mean to
the World" by Frank E'ayant in the
October Success:
Between the two oceans we raise
one-fifth of the worlds wheat, four
tifths of its corn. one-fourth of its oats.
and four-iifths of its cotton. This har-
vest is the foundation of our prosper
ity.
Agriculture this year will add
$4,000 .0O0, 900 to the cOuntry's wealth.
and foreign customers will pay us not
far from S9O0.OO0OOO for our agricul-
tural products shipped to them over
the sea.
The West. with its billion dollar
corn crops. its half million dollar
wheat crops. its quarter million dollar
oat crops. has Eeen the country's bull
wark in the storms OF inflated finance
All the gold in America-the great
est hoard of the yellow metal ever
gathered in any country-could not
buy one years harvest of our corn and
wheat. To buy one seasons wheat
crop would take all the gold mined in
this country in six years. In the past
seven years all the gold mines have
only produced enough to buy one
years yield of our six leading cereals.
1t is the American farmer who has
paid OFF our huge Indebtedness to Eu
rope. who has brought back our secur
tiles from foreign banks and who has
sent American capital around the
world looking for investment.
In the past three years. while our ex.
ports have averaged more than 1900
100000 dollars, agriculture's share
in this trade has been nearly 5000.
600 900 dollars.
More than one-third of all onr export
trade has been in the two great crops.
wheat and cotton.
Cotton is assuming more and more
important position in our foreign
trade. Our southern plantations. pro
duc!nK all but fifth of the cotton OF
the world, have monopoly of the
trade.

Eggs.
Beet Pulp in Demand.

Some of the beet farmers In north'
crn Colorado are complaining because
the sugar factories have disposed OF
all their beet pulp for this season.
Many of the farmers desire to have tho
pulp made by their beets for feeding
purposes and the claim is made that
the factories promised them the pulp
from their beets II they wanted 1t.
Last year. however. all the factories
had pulp left over and this year they
were taking no chances and contracted
the pulp to the first comers. This
year every pound OF the pulp will DO
fed and the farmers want more. A
meeting Of farmers was held in Fort
Collins few days ago to protest
against the contracting OF the pulp
until they had had an opportunity to
secure what they want. The factories
prefer to have the farmers feed the
pulp on their places and thus secure
manure for their fields and it Is prob.
able that different arrangements will
be made hereafter

Regardless of politics, the mine ownN

D0INGS IN PHOENIX AND
 THE SALT RIVER VALLEY

Judge N. G. Layton, superintend- ent of public instruction, has returned from his visit to his old home in Michigan and to Illinois. Judge Lay ton had not been east before in twenty. five years and had not been out of the territory for five years.
 Charles J. Sanichas was on the south side yesterday and completed arrangements for shipping the first car of naval oranges from the valley this year. Most of them were secured from the Johnsons of Mesa and the car was filled out with a few boxes from one of the groves north of the river near Camelback. This years crop is heavy and the fruit is of an exceptionally fine quality. This car will be shipped next Wednesday and is consigned to a Chicago firm. Re. publican.
 Horses from the northern counties are now being brought to the Salt river valley to be placed on pasture for the winter months. Cattlemen of the north find this profitable in- vestment, as their saddle horses are taken back to the range fresh and fat in the spring, ready for the work of the range, which would not be the case were they left out all winter. To feed is considerably more expensive than to pasture on alfalfa in this val ley.-Stockman.
 A territorial far is being seriously considered by the people of this val ley, and it is more than probable that by the time another fair season rolls around every arrangement will have been made for successful fair. The Gentlemen's Driving association is behind the project and is financially able to carry to successful conclusion any proposition it may undertake. It would certainly result in great benefit to the livestock and agricultural in- terests, and whatever is beneficial to these industries cannot but help the entire territory. Southwestern Stock man.
 One of the finest properties in the valley changed hands on Thursday when George H. Maxwell sold his ranch northeast U the city to NJ. V. Lenane for sl5,OO0. Mir. Lenane came here less than a year ago from New York for the benefit of his health and has been greatly improved. He de- cided that this valley was good place live in and good place also in which to invest a little money. Several mon ths ago he leased the property for country residence and hnding that it suited his purposes he took an op- tion on 1t, which was matured by the closing of the deal couple of days ago. o.-Republican.
