THE CROPS AND PRICES.

Each crop report Is better than the
one preceding. The estimate OF the
spring wheat crop just given out is
ten million bushels greater than the
estimate OF a month ago. The pres
ent estimate OF the total wheat crop
In the United States is go. 600 600
bushels. or an increase OF 90. 900. 900
bushels over 1911 In August the prom
ise was 2.si1 900 900 bushels OF corn. In
september the indications are that the
3.O00.O0O.000 bushel mark will be
passed. This is 100000. 900 bushels
over last year. and larger than any
other corn crop ever gathered. The
barley crop promises to yield 10000.
900 bushels more than last year. and
oats 27S.000.O0O bushels more. Pota.
toes promise TO yield lO5. OO1. 600
bushels. or nearly twice as many
bushels as the 1911 crop.
Bountiful providence could hardly
do more for the American farmers
than II is doing in 1912. and all this
enormous farm product is sure OF n
good market and quick sale at good
prices.
Was there ever better surety o,
good times and continued business
activity?
