The sleeve caps may be made with or

be made in full or shorter length. while
the pun sleeves are in elbow length only.

BANKS ANALYSIS OF CROPS AND
BUSINESS is EXTREMELY
OPTIMISTIC.
CROP OUTPUT GOOD
FARMERS ARE BUYING BEST OF
MACHINERY AND AUTO
MOBILES.

Chicago.-Touching upon practical
ly every phase of the nations finan-
cial, commercial and industrial con-
ditions, even down to the berry yield
and the effect of the automobile upon
affairs generally, the annual crop and
business report compiled by the Con
tlnental and Commercial Bank and is
sued Monday, breathes optimism in
every line.
1t summarizes the crop situation in
the declaration that the farmer has
cause for rejoicing and the nation for
thanksgiving that its material affairs
will be preserved and expanded
through the sufficiency of it's food
supply"
While the report shows falling off
in some crops as compared with last
year, it also demonstrates that they
are above the ten years average, and,
therefore, more than ample to fully
support the buying power of the
great agricultural districts and main
tain the nation in it's past prosperity.
"Our reports indicate a total wheat
crop of 657,000,000 bushels, or S,000,-
coo bushels less than last years rec
ord production" says the compilation,
"but equal to a ten years average
production.
Corn promises yield of 100000,
900 bushels or 225,0O0,000 bushels
above the previous season, and twen-
ty-five per cent. over a ten years. av-
erage crop.
"The oats yield will exceed last
years excellent production with to-
tai of 100000 bushels, or 200,-
100000 bushels over the ten-year av-
erage. Barley will equal the last
years crop of 12S 100000 bushels and
rye will exceed the previous season.
The total production of these grains
should be 4.96O,OO0,00O bushels, while
the ten years average is 4,431 ,OOO,-
600. Cotton conditions indicate a crop
Of 100000 bales, or 100000 bales
above last year.

prosperity has been the high prices

Lands Eliminated.

Washington. D. C.-Nearly 100000
acres of land have been eliminated
from the Leadville and Pike National
forests in Colorado by proclamation
just signed by the President. Most OF
the land already has been patented, but
the unappropriated portions later will
be opened to settlement. BY these
eliminations the Leadville forest loses
42,340 acres, and the Pike 81 1,024 acres
1t is expected that additional proclama
tions will be signed within a short
time which will make the total elimina-
tions from the national forests in Colo.
rado more than half million acres.
