FooD and fodder are going to be
abundant for another year. The De-
partment of Agriculture reports that
from IS to 80 per cent of the corn is
safe from frost, and the rest will be in
another week. Secretary Wilson adds
as the result of his own observation that
the reports of enormous crops are not
exaggerations. 10 the DakOtas the small
grain crops are the best for six or seven
years, and in half dozen of the north
western States the corn crop is the best
ever known. The prosperity of the
farmers makes the whole country pros
porous.
