Crops Of Country.

That the bugbcar of hard times
IprOphesied In connection with recent
reports OF general crop failures is
Thoroughly unfounded is proved by
the annual crop report issued by Lorh

President c. II. Erwin. in discuss
ing his sources OF information which
led to the above statement men
toned that he had deduced optimistic
conclusions from data gathered for
him by the agricultural press all over
the country.
Farm papers," said Mr.. Erwin,
particularly those with restricted or
localized circulation, are in the best
position to give net facts as regards
production and conditions. Praciic-
ally all the papers furnishing Lord 4
Thomas with crop information re-
ceived their reports, not from a mere
personal inspection of conditions gen
orally. but from their subscribers as
to the actual production of each
township and many individul II
farms"
While II IL true that. speaking ma
tionally. there will be a shortage In
grain products, on the other hand
prices for these products show n
much higher percentage over last
year than the product does loss.

Why Is Sugar.

Why Is Sugar.
The reasons given for the high price
of sugar are as varied and many as
the answer to "Why Jones Left
Home" Eastern retailers and county
crossroads grocery keepers frequent
ly attempt to enlighten the world on
the high price of sugar One retailer
In the States sums up the situation
as follows:
"The present high price OF sugar is
due solely to natural and unavoidable
conditions and not to manipulation or
stock gambling operations. The best
sugar crop Of Austria and Germany
has been a failure and the same must
be said Of the cane product In Cuba.
A weak yield last year brought about
the consumption of spot sugar, leav-
ing the consumer entirely dependent
upon the 1911 output, which was yet
to come. The ensuing failure of this
crop, both In Europe and In Cuba,
combined with the depletion of the
old stock, have resulted In the pres
ent situation Sugar Is today higher
than II has been for twenty-five years
but as heretofore stated, the market
Is absolutely natural"
