NAulSAl 1t lJ1Os
To THE EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE
1t seemsstrange that in Morrstown,
with its historic past, no one has
deemed it worth while to reply to my
letters suggesting an historical mu.
scum here.
However. make bold to add an
other to my previous letters, in order
to suggest as meansof testing public
spirit, with the above object in view,
the following plan:
That a Stock Company or Associa-
tion be formed to open subscription
books giving each citizen the privilege
of subscribing for one or more shares,
at the par value of $500 per share,
payment TO be made only when the
total amount subscribed reaches suf-
ficient sum to authorize the aSSocia-
tion to begin work.
or course there would be no thought
of dividends, or money making in any
way.
Should sufficient number of our
citizens subscribe to make it a success,
a meeting of the stockholders should
be called to- adopt bylaws and elect
officers.
| should say that the Washington
association could serve as model fol
this work.
Let US hear from those interested
for out of the ideas of the many, nc
doubt a proper association will de
velop.
Truly yours,

AMERICAN FARMER PROSPER
ITY SHOUTER FOR 1910
Big Crops All Along the Line IN
All the States

The American farmer stands to
be the prosperity shouter for 1910.
AS the closest estimates indicate
he has the second largest winter
wheat crop on record, and his conn
crop will closely crowd the 3,OOO,-
100000 mark. the government crop
report making figures of approx
mately 2.95O.O00,OOO bushels.
His winter wheat is of better
quality than usual. and with a
winter crop exceeding 46O.00O.00O
bushels. and his spring wheat out
put conservatively estimated at 225.
100000 bushels, will be enough to
not only support the home demand
but leave a handsome surplus for
the supply of people who require
bread in the old world.
Winter wheat is about all thresh-
ed. with yields and quality up to
a big rush to market. but it is
over. and until thereis considerable
advance in prices. 1t is not expect
ed that farmers will sell their
grain freely. as many have already
disposed of sufficient grain to re-
vive their financial condition and
give themselves some ready money.
Threshing returns on oats sug-
gast . crop of 1.10O.O0O.000 BUSH
els. or a slightly smaller tonnage
than last year; making 1t the larg
est crop ever raised. Marketing
oats has been on an enormous
scale. farmers are only getting 25
to 80 cents at loading stations.
which is lower than in recent
years.
The indicated production of rye
amounts to 32.O00,O0O bushels and
about the same as last year.
While the beet sugar crop in
Colorado. according to late advices.
will be fair. 1t will not equal that
Of last year.
California reports prospects of n
slightly smaller tonnage than Lass
year. the total crop will be larger
owing to the greater paintings the
present year.
In Michigan the acreage Is con-
aiderably larger than last year and
the crop Is doing finely with every
indication of a banner year. This
will mean that the Michigan farm
ers who grow beets will receive
more than $4,000. 900 in cash for
their crop of beess alone.
In fact the condition of the
farmer has never been 30 optimis-
tic as it is this year. wkh big
crops and good prices for every
thing he has to put on the mar
ket. His live stock and poultry
will bring enormous returns. With
Iressed hogs in tn. Michigan mar
ket bringing the farmer $11 to $12
cwt.. beef $3.50 to $3.50 cwt.. NUT
ton and lambs IS to $11 cwt.. the
farmer can grunt with satisfaction.
Indeed the year has been prosper
Gus beyond compare for the farm
er. He enjoys more comforts. con-
veniences and luxuries than he has
ever aA.ained. More than So per
cent Of the automobiles marketed
this year have been sold to Ameri-
can farmers.
Yes. the farmer can sit by his
fireside the coming winter with a
greater measure of contentment
than he has ever before expert
