New York, n Y, May 2S-Aidsum-

market During the early session the
volume Of business was OF minor pro-
portions and utterly without meaning.
Reading was again under pressure.
Bonds were steady.
The market failed to make the slight

the excellent crop conditions outlined
in the governments weekly weather
report. The movement was even more
narrow and contracted than before.
The market closed steady
Many of the ordinarily active trad
ers left the floor before the session
ended and the final dealings were even
more undressing than is usually the
case on a dull day.

Billions For Farmer.

With a corn crop that is far IN excess of
all previous records, and wheat yield
that has never before been equsled in
this country, according to the govern
ment statistics, the farmers of the United
are today enriched by the tidy sum of
$1,000, 600, 600 with which to meet the
high cost of living during the coming
year.
And one of the best things about agri,
cultural prosperity in this country, fnan-
cial writers say, is that it has a way of
coming when other agraran nations are
in the grip of famine. The result is that
the great crop i'll the United States helps
to feed the other countries of the world
whose fields have lam sodden at harvest
or have burned in unreleved sunshine.
This is the way the bumper crop meas
ures up:
10000, 600 bushels of wheat, valued at
S6o3, 500, 600.
3 ooo 900, 900 bushels of corn, valued It
81. $50, 900, 600.
1920. 600, 900 bushels of oats, valued at
$751;, 600, 900.
Barley, rye and other farm products,
valued at 81, 200, ooo, 900.
By December I, the date from which
the government figures the farm value of
grain, the gross value of this years crop
to the farmers will be many millions
more.
Canadian farmers will also share the
prosperity of those in the United States,
as the crops in the Northwest are the big
gest in history.

Constitution and Progress.

The Constitution of the United States
an obstacle in the way of progress As
written by the fathers, it has been the ma
tons refuge in the stress of storm. 1t is
our sure defense of the strong against the
weak. Prove all things-hold fast that
which is good" Has not our Constitu-
ton been tested by the experience of
nearly a century and a quarter And
when. where and what respect has it
failed?
An obstacle in the way of progress
Where on the earth, or in all time, has
any nation made greater progress than
that made by the United States Of Amer
ich? What warrant have those who would
tear it up and cast the fragments into the
wastebasket for saying that it ever has
been or is now an obstacle to progress.
From struggling nation of 5000, 900 Of
people this has progressed 10 nation OF
III the neighborhood of 100 DOC, 900.
1t has progressed in the arts and the
sciences; In these it leads the world.
Many of the inventions that have made
the whole world happier and greater have
been the work Of Americans. The prog
ress made by this country under the Con-
Stitution that some men would destroy
on the plea that is an obstacle in the way
of progress has been a very important
part of the progress made by the civilized
world.-knoxvile Journal and Tribune.
