FULL ASSURANCE
OF UNBOUNDED
PROSPERITY

A few weeks ago the Times
sounded the keynote of prosperity
throughout the United States
printing in that conneC ton inter
views with a number of the ablest
and most competent observers i'll
the entire country. From every
part of America came reports OF
the most encouraging aspect, and
the story of prosperity becomes
larger and larger, as the day of
harvest approaches.
Corroborative testimony is afford
ed by the current report on crops
and general business conditions com
piled by the Continental and Com
mercial National Bank of Chicago
For ten years that institution has
gathered data afforded by the con-
ditions of crops and business; and
in recent years has enlarged the
scope of the inquiry and has given
close attention to industrial and
trade conditions.
The reports of this bank indicate
total wheat crop of 657 900, 900
or 80, 900, 900 less than last year 5
record production, but equal to a
ten years average production.
Corn promises a yield of 5000,
100000 bushels, or 225,0OO, 900
bushels above the previous season
and IS per cent over ten year s
average crop.
Oats will exceed last year rs pro-
duction, with total of ,09l 600,
900 bushels 200, 900, 900 bushels
over the ten-year average. Barley
will equal last year S crop of l2S,
900, 900 bushels, and rye will ex-
coed the previous season, being
81, 500, 900 bushels.
The total production of these
grains is 1906, 900, 900 bushels,
while the ten-year average is f.
431, 900 900 bushels. Cotton con-
dition indicates a crop of II 900, 600
bales, or 7OO,OO bales above last
year.
As to the condition of business
and the attitude of labor, this
same authority observes that while
the volume of business is large,
there are frequent complaints that
competition is sharper and the
margin of profit smaller than ever.
Labor is dictatorial. and improved
methods are constantly required to
offset its demands. The report
makes this interesting observation:
1t is common expression
from the smaller cities and towns
that nothing is known there of
business reaction or of threatened
trouble save what comes from a
few large centers. To them the
country seems very prosperous
and conditions sound.
The entire West has been en
ormously, almost widely, prosper
Gus. The basis of this prosperity
has been the high prices for farm
products, which have furnished
the farmers with the means to
build better homes and barns,
drain their lands, buy improved
machinery, enlarge their farms,
and in not a few instances commit
the oft-heralded offense of buying
an automobile.
All told, the situation is one at
which the entire country ought to
feel encouraged. There are sever
al points worthy of special consid-
eration Cd Farming is more
profitable than ever before, opera
tons are being enlarged and devel-
oped in every way; Gu The rise
in the price of food products has
been checked, and some reduction
from the price of meals in the last
year will no doubt be made; CD If
the corn and cotton crops fulfill

ed meeting last evening drew UP
an estimate of the expenses for the
coming year, totaling S62, $40.
