MERCHANTS ARE ANTICIPATING
GOOD TIMES.

A New York writer on crop outlook
says that In spite of the fact that
July and August are usually months
OF deterioration, the prospects are for
large crops OF corn, wheat ana oats.
Corn and oats promise record-breaking
yields. and wheat is threshng out very
much better than anticipated a month
ago. and 1t is quite possible that We
may shortly garner next 10 the largest
wheat crop the country has ever
raised. All fears OF a bread famine
have consequently disappeared, and
there will be no shortage of wheat in
this part OF the world. The price has
dropped TO about last years level. and
indications are that we shall have a
lair amount to spare for export Since
the worlds supply of wheat is much
reduced. not having kept pace with
population, we are certain of good
prices for our surplus; fact OF much
consequence in the restoration of our

pears to be recovering somewhat from
July injuries, and in view of the short
time movements in European mills
and the larger European visible sup
ply, IL does not look as II there would
be any serious shortage in the supply.
The situation, however. favors good
prices for cotton, which will benefit
the South and also help TO swell the
value of our exports As cotton is an
important factor in the supply OF for
elgn exchange bills. ample offerings
OF cotton and grain bills would be use
ful later on In restraining gold exports.
All observers of financial condl.
tions agree that with big crops in sight
and confidence restored In tho money
centers, the country is about 10 enter

not less prosperous than was enjoyed
Prior to the slump in the fall of 1907.
Many Ogden houses have been or.

ahead. in anticipation OF wave Of
prosperity which will crowd the fac.

AL night. when the hour for rest
has arrived and the train Is waiting
for orders. the band from Wayside
plays Daughters OF America. and the
private secretary notifies the Presi-
dent that Congressman Watumaycall-
statesman's home town and a short
speech from the rear platform would
be appreciated. Later in the night
the farmers who voted for Taft and
Sherman. learning that the train is
to stop at Cornvlle, decide upon an
impromptu college yell. and they give

So IL goes, an endless hurrah and
uproar. until the President. thorough

dlsmisslng his bodyguard, settles down

Our idea of how the President
should be entertained. when every
place is surfeiting him with atten-
tion, is to give him as much choice
In the form of pleasure to be ac-
corded as a fixed program will permit
and to keep him free from too much
fulsome adulation
When E. II. Hartman was enter
tanned here after the building OF the
cutoff he requested that the public
demonstration be limited to a drive
about town. His request was respect

that he had thoroughly enjoyed the

exist today money begins 10 leave
stocks and seeks other directions
where II Is more needed and which
are moro profitable. The big bankers
and rich men see plenty of oppor-
tunlties ahead where they can secure
better returns than they are now get
ting on the capital invested in SUR
plus stocks which they are now carry
ing. Common business sense would
induce them 10 realize under these
conditions. and there is no doubt that
quiet inside selling has been going on
much more freely than is generally
anticipated.
This is one of the automatic equal
lzers In the business world-moncy
seeks the most profitable fields. And
now that The stock market has
squeezed out profit in stocks. the flow
OF money into other channels is to be
expected. All kinds of business en-
terprises promising stability and fair
profit will receive stimulus from
the diverted stream OF wealth and the
whole country will feel the effect, AMI
no section will be a greater bene-
ficiary than the West. where there are
always great opportunities for eXpan-
sion and development, and always a
demand from legitimate undertakings
for more capital
