FARM PROSPERITY
GREATER THAN EVER
ALL AMERICAN PRODUCTS BUT
COTTON WILL BE IN RECORD
BREAKING ABUNDANCE.

Chicago. Aug. 24.--Crop statistics
gathered by c. r. Erwin show the
agricultural regions OF America, with
few exceptions, to be in a record
breaking condition OF prosperity.
In the west and northwest, the cen-
trail states, part OF the southwest and
great deal OF the east. crops were
never so great In the south the loss
in acreage OF the cotton crop will
probably be made up by the increased
value of the baled product and the
whole south has safeguarded itself
by diversified farming and other crops
which this year have come handsome
ly to the rescue.
In other years of great agricultural
production crops have sometimes been
stored, but this year the condition
seems to be that the farmer with the
product can get his money for 1t as
quickly as he desires to market the
crop and at big prices. Some reports
state that grain is being taken right
from the thresher by the buyers at top
notch prices.
Nothing but especially unusual and
entirely unforeseen weather conditions
could change the corn crop from it's
apparent yield.
Northwest Particularly Good.
In the northwest conditions are par
ticularly good. Threshing returns are
not all in on spring rye and barley.
but the quality of the grain is extra
good. The oat crop will be the best
in years The prospect for wheat is
exceedingly good. The corn crop will
be the best ever raised in the north
west
Harry owen estimates the spring
wheat harvested in Minnesota and the
Dakotas at 40,000000 bushels more
than last year. He reports that oats.
barley and corn will show larger than
last year, and that while the price Of
wheat may be slightly less than last
year it will undoubtedly run higher
than the average for the last ten
years.
p. v. Collins believes the govern
ments conservative figures are too
low and that this years crop of spring
wheat in Minnesota and the Dakotas
exceeds last years more than 5O,OOO,-
900 bushels.

Leopoid's Riches.

Brussels, Dec. 2l.--Attorneys repre-.
senling Princess Louise, the eldest
dsughIer of the late King Lsopold, to.
day began drawing up the pspers By
which an attempt will be made to at.
tach sl the property Of Leopold silustsd
Ia Belgium and prevent Its falling into
the hands OF Baroness Vaughan.
Elk Senator Edmond Picard, council
for the baroness, said thu Gully result Of
the suit would be a series of scandals
similsr to those that marked Louiss''
sttsmp. years ago to recover the mari
age settlement of her mother, the late
Qaeen Henriette, 10 which she failed.
"Lsopold's fortune Is smaller than
the pu lie believes" said PickaId. "Ths
late king gave away many millions 10
public blquests. The total will BE- no.
where near the reported $50 900, 600
"There will be no attempt 10 claim
the throne for the bsroness's elder SOD,
The Duke of Tusyer9n. The baroness
and the king were married by religi'
our ceremony but thern was no civil
ceremony. The sons are, therefore,
technically lllegitimate.
"The baroness was not forced TO IL
from Brussels, ss some reports have
said. She lei. Of her own volition aim
ply because she thought 1t a more dig
ui6ed proceeding, and more tsctiul thai
to stay here aud be the central figure ID

has Instituted. At the proper time bh'
