CROP OF 1908 BANNER
AGRICULTURAL OUTPUT

The greatest crops ever producec
by any one country in the history OF
the world is the estimate placed on
the crop of 1908 in the United States
by Henry Clews, the wizard of Wal
street. and to this enormous crop Is
due the rapid improvement in the
financial condition of the country.
Mr.. Clews says:
Financial conditions continue tt
show steady Improvement, chiefly
owing to favorable crop prospects
easy money and-a more hopeful feel
ing in business circles.
Our financial leaders and captains
of industry are all becoming more
and more optimistic in their opin
ions. Depression is slowly but grad
ually disappearing, and evidence o
improvement are visible in the di
minishing number of idle cars, in the
somewhat better orders for steel, In
partial revival of building, and in &
steadier demand for merchandise ir
many of the leading markets.
| OF course business Is still very
quiet, and in volume much below
that of year ago. But the fact Is
true, nevertheless, that depression Il;
waning, and that we are fairly start
ed on the road to recovery, with nc
prospect of another panic in sight
because of the thoroughness of re
cent liquidations.
II NAV be some time before the
activity of 1907 Is regained, but the
recovery should be more rapid thar
usual because the country generally
Is not suffering from over production
as during the previous panic, and ere
long our industries must restart t.
prevent an actual scarcity OF mer
chandise If present contraction II
persisted In.
The most stimulating element II
the situation at present is the croI
outlook. Our weather during th'
past two weeks continued favorable
and condition of the crops has COZ
respondingly improved.
The corn crop this year, according
to present promise will yield 200
100000 bushels, which at the Septem
Der option price Of 62 cents would b
valued at $1,7OO.OOO. 900. The whea
crop, with an indicated yield of 675
100000 bushels at SO cents per bush
ell would amount to s627, 100000.
The cotton crop, which promise
The news=record. [volume] (Enterprise, Wallowa County, Oregon) 1907-1910, 1908-08-06

100000 bales at 91s cents woult
yield about s6OO.OOO.OOO. The oat ano
hay crops now out of danger, are
record breakers in quantity and quail
ity.
Last year these two crops were
valued at over $1,000, 900 900, and this
year that sum will be further ex
ceeded. All the crops of 1907 were
estimated by the department of agri
culture at valuation of $7,412,
100000 on the farm; and in view o.
the larger yield this year, and the
good prices generally obtained. 1t L.
quite reasonable to expect that our
farmers this year will produce new
wealth worth at least $4,000 ,OOO, 900 /:
the largest sum ever realized in one
year by this country or any othel
from agricultural products.
