FARMERS
HARVEST
FOR 13
Crops y Per Cent Smaller, but
Will Pay 6 Per Cent More
to the Growers.

With a total quantity of agricul-
tural products % per cent less than
in 1912, the years gross revenue for
the farmers viii be per cent more
than last year, according to a bulle-
tin issued by the Orange Judd Com
pany which publishes several agri-
cultural papers. Total value of all
crops in the United States will be
IS, 900, 100000, or $3.50. 1000, 600 more
than a year ago.
The reason for this extraordinary
condition is, of course, the high prices
per unit for several Of the large ce-
real crops. Corn, for example, will
show a total volume of 20 per cent
under 1912, but with a value of ~ per
cent better will produce for the farm
ers $1OO,00O,O0O more than year ago.
THE wealth the farmers will re-
ceive for their decreased tonnage"
says 'the report, also has these two
decided advantages: Less labor and
expense will be required for harvest
ing and marketing the crop this year
at a time when farm help is scarce
and high.
Shortage Saves Railroads.
only the decrease of about 50,OOO,-
000 tons in the weight of these sta
pies will enable American railways to
move the crops of 1913 without a YER
table breakdown of the transporta-
ton system, in view of the heavy ton
mage of other freight and Of passen-
ger traffic caused by the resumption
of good times.
The outcome of the agricultural
season, therefore, is profoundly bene-
fetal to industry, commerce and fl
nance, taking the country as whole,
although certain individuals and I'm
tied sections have been hard hit by
the drouth.
The shortage in new corn is not A
disaster. Ii is a blessing in disguise.
For with over 4OO,OOO,O0O bushels o:
old corn on hand october l, the ag
gregate supply of maize this autumn
will be some 2,75O,OOO.OOO bushels.
This just about equals the corn sup
ply following the harvest of 1911
only two years ago, when the yield
was 2.65O,OOO.00O and the supply of
old corn was then only about one
fourth as large as now"
The Cotton Prospect.
The w~eat output will be the great
est in quantity and value in the coun-
try's history, and the value for po-
ratoes s224,OO 700, which is $4,000
600 more than last year, breaks all
records.
Even more remarkable than the
foregoing is the present promise of
the cotton crop" continues the bull
letin. Although nearly a million
bales less than last year, a decrease
Of . per cent. it's price of around IA
cents per pound to the planter will
make the cotton crop worth the un-
precedented aggregate Of nearly $780,
600, 900
In other words. cotton growers
will receive a total of around s125,-
100000 more than last year. or a to-
tai increase of % per cent. This will
be the greatest amount ever paid to
planters in the history of the cotton
industry"

Prepare An Exhibit For The Faint

The products which are to win
the prizes at the fairs next fall are
now in process of growth. The ex-
celence is going to depend upon the
care and thought bestowed upon
them from the very beginning OF
the growing season. Men who are
accustomed to growing prize win
ming products begin a year in
advance. The soil is chosen and
putin the best Of condition the ssec
Is carefully selected. the young
plants are watched and the pro
ducts to be exhibited are chosen
long before the harvest time. In
the fruit district the tree that is to
grow the prize winning fruit il.
chosen a year in advance and the
particular fruit from which final
selection is made is marked early
in the season. The exhibitor will
do we'll to give thought to what
constitutes the standard of excel
lence. He should know the score

fngly. Not infrequently products
are chosen principally for their
large size. or often one will exhibit
an inferior product. When he sees
the prize winning product and
knows what is desired he realizes
that he has left better products at
home than those which win the
prize. Anyone who intelligently
goes and exhibits a good article
will find himself we'll repaid. not
by the prize which he wins but by
the educational influence upon his
own thought and system of farm
ing. He will have been enabled al
SO to contribute something to the
success of the farm and to the edu-
cation of the community.

The financial condition of our
state goes, from bad to worse. or
at least the general public comes
to realize It.
Following the Adjournment
the general assembly announcement
was made that the third class ap-
preparations could not all be paid.
then came the announcement that
nWne of them could be paid. and a
couple of days ago the people of
the state were informed by the aud
iting board that the second class
Institutions would receive only 35
per cent of their appropriations
this year. At that not a man on
the board honestly believes that
even that much can be paid next
year, and 1t Is doubtful II sim
gle dollar of the second class appro-
priations will be paid in 1914.
The second class appropriations
include moneys for charitable and
penal institutions. These get
regular mill levy. but the appropri-
ations are an absolute necessity. A
grave condition is presented in the
threatened neglect OF our mute and
blind, our insane and the prison
ers for whom we must care.
The whole trouble is the pay
roll. II the present pay roll was
no greater than the Buchtel pay
roll Governor Ammons void have
more than a million dollars for
other appropriations. The second
class appropriations do not total
this amount He could pay these
appropriations out of this amount
and still have some left for th.third
class.
All the blame cannot rest on
Governor Ammons, however. When
he assumed control of the affairs
OF the state he announced that the
appropriations would be held with
in the collections. However, his
legislature got away from him and
increased the pay roll of the state
= little over 100000 above that of
the Shafroth second administration
pay roll Shafroth's pay roll was
twice as large as the pay rolls OF
either. Buchtel or Mcdonald.
Thus has the state good cause
for worry over her financial affairs
and for the future not only of her
educational institutions. but Tor
every institution in the state ana
for every department of the state
government.
The next chance the people will
have to remedy this condition Will
be at the next election. What VIII
they do?-Pueblo Chieftain.

f ASBIGAMISI

Confessing his guilt as a bigamist
and throwing himself on the mercy of
the court, Jesse C. Steele this morning
was sentenced by U. s. District Judge
Clemens to a servitude of six months
in jail and to pay fine of $500.
Among many who heard of the affair
this morning surprise was expressed
that the sentence was so light.
The hearing of Steeie's case had
been set for 2 O'Clock this afternoon,
but his early decision to withdraw his
original plea of not guilty made the
calling of the jury unnecessary. He
was taken Immediately into court and
In the presence of the district attor-
ney, his own counsel and few specta-
tors, announced his desire to alter the
plea and submit to the courts decree.
The evidence prepared against him
appeared sufficient to convict Mrs.
Steele of San Francisco, and her sis
ter, Miss Sciaroni, whom the govern
ment brought down from the coast,
both positively identified him as Mrs.
Steele's husband and produced affi-
daFits to show the legality of the mar
riage. He had never entered any de-
NAL of his marriage to the Portuguese
girl in Honolulu last fall.
In the formal charge his name is
written Jesse c. Steele, otherwise
known as James C. Steele, otherwise
known as Jesse w. Clark"

nero COMING
F from THE SOUND

One or more employees of the Unit
ed Ssatet navy department were
among the passengers in the Pacific
Mail liner Manchuria this morning,
coming to the islands, to await the
appearance OF the United States naval
collier Nero, with the initial shipment
of sand, to be used in the construc-
ton of improvements at Pearl Harbor
naval station.
The Nero it at the Sound, there be-
ing specially fitted to enter trade
between the north Pacific coast and
the islands.
The naval collier is expected will
make at least a HALF dozen round trips
between the Sound and Pearl Harbor
carrying large consignments of build
ers sand.
The first shipment will amount to
about $500 tons according to the re-
port brought to this city today. The
collier is to proceed direct to Pearl
Harbor, and will berth at the new
wharf. Arrangements for the expedi-
Hous handling of this cargo are now
about completed. 1t is possible that
local steVedores will secure the con-
trect for the handling of the sand.
The sand In all cases is to be ship

ing, to have been committed by JAP

white slavery" traffic as it is car
ried on by Japanese here. This man,
it is thought, entered the station, wait
ed until the Waterman was patrolling
another part of the building, and then
got access to the womens dormitory.
Those who have been investigating
are now declared to have unearthed
enough to cause them to suspect the
operation of a nasty plot against the
federal immigration service. The case
has come right on the heels of the &C.
tive move by the federal officials in
arresting eleven Japanese as alleged
white slavers." The man who enter
ed the women's sleeping apartment, it
is suspected, did so in order to ac-
complish his purpose and thus put the
immigration service in an unWelcome
light.
The case is still being investigated
and Inspector Halsey this morning
therefore declined to discuss it. In the
Japanese community it has aroused
intense interest, though the only STORY
from the Japanese is that the woman
thought the night Waterman had as
saulted her, but just who the man was
