III eropweather and these events, 3s

No general crop failure il expected
but i'll large sections corn and cot
ton and other products that depend
on July and August weather will
make short crops. This of rourse
will greatly injure some people and
greatly benefit others. in sections
where good crops will be- produced
unusual profits are assured.
But the consumer can not hope
forcrops this year that will greatly
lower the cost Of living and there
fore economy should be the watch
word. But there is no dane, of suf-
fering for food. Our physicians say
that we eat too much. and perhaps
q little economy might improve
health. =.
Those who are Interested in cot
ton, corn and other products should
not overlook the civil wars in Mex
leo and Cuba. While those people
fight they must be fed and they are
not producing food stuffs while they
are fighting. This condition will in
crease the demand for our farm and
plantation products,

spring wheat sections. AS rule
these have started under splendid
conditions although a little late in
some sections. Generally the spring
wheat sections hold moisture we'll
and that promises fair crops even
where it may be dry during the lat
ter part of the growing season.
am preparing to publish through |
the newspapers that publish my
work, general forecast of the
cropweather of 1913, in order that
producers and dealers may have the
benefit of my calculations before
time for planting and sowing. | may
not get this ready before wheat SOW
ing next fall, but will try to do so.
BY this means | will add annual
forecasts to my present publications
which will then consist of annual,
and daily forecasts.
During the last six months have
made great improvements in my
methods but will not be able to get
these improvements. into my fore
casts before October. | regret that
can not furnish all newspapers
with these forecasts and therefore
all who are interested should sub
scribe to the papers that publish nay
work.
