THE SONGS OUR CHILDREN SING.
TScranton Journal

Nevertheless and Notwithstanding
we don't like the songs which we hear
school girls and boys singing in these
glorious times. There may be other
dangers in this great republic, but our
best advice to parents is to carefully
censor the junk which is piled up on
the piano and cremate the stuff which
isn't fit to print, to say nothing of
school girls singing.

Big Crop Everywhere.
There is going to be a big crop
everywhere. The spring wheat coun-
try will produce an immense crop, you
VIII see, and the winter wheat coun-
try will produce a very much larger
crop than they would have us believe.
The experts get too fussy when they
strike a couple of days of drought.
lnglis and even Barney Snow were
away off last year concerning the
Winter wheat crop and they will prove
to be off this year. Last year Barney
Snow gave the highest estimate of
crop In Kansas, saying that there
would be about $4,000 0 bushels and
every other expert thought hat he
was crazy, for they were predicting
crops Of 61,000,000 to 60, 900, 900 bushels.
The crop turned out to be over 91,O00.-
600. The same thing will happen this
year.

Concerning financial conditions, Mr.

Duluth Herald: James A. Patten of
Chicago, 'the corn king was in the
city today for a few hours. He was on
his way to Ely lake with his son, Jack
Patten, and the latter's chum, a Mr..
Snyder of Evanston, Ill. The young
men had set their hearts upon camp
ing at Ely lake, and the senior Patten
came along to see that they were prop
erly placed.
They left for Ely this afternoon at
3:15 o'clock. After a few days there
Mr.. Patten. ST., will some back. This
morning the mar who a few years ago
drove corn up in a corner, made 1t jump
through, lie down, roll over and play
dead at his bidding, was the guest,
while in the city, of B. e. Baker and
"A. d. Thomson, old friends of his. He
made the Office of Mr.. Baker in the
board Of trade building. his hang
OUT while here, and watched the quo
tation board during the conversation.
Mr.. Patten is stouter than his pictures
would indicate, in fact is a big man
all over, in a physical way as well as
mentally. He looks as though he
should worry about the $4,000 fine
that the United States court levied
upon him for cornering the market and
Imaking a bunch of millions.
Joseph was the first on record to
corner corn and James A. Patten was
1.-THE last, and many declare that he will
be absolutely the last to turn the
trick. He refuses to talk about it,
when a suggestive question Is put to
him.

mo, I am not in the market" said
he this morning in answer to a ques-
ton. Il have not turned 100 bushels
in six months. This trip has nothing
to do with business at all; it is purely
for pleasure and to get these two
young fellows started out right on
their camping trip"
Mr.. Patten was quite willing to talk
about the grain situation in general,
for he takes a keen interest in it, al
though he declares himself to be out of
active service for good. MI. Patten
is a bear" on grain in general, and
particularly on the wheat question. He
said that the other day he bet a box
of cigars with a friend in Chicago that
September wheat will go down to 81
cents before it reaches the dollar mark,
and he is confident of winning that
bet. Said he:
ga drought in June is nothing to get
frightened over. 1t means nothing in
wheat. 1T does in oats though. But
you take 1t in wheat. the crop may look
all withered up because of drought
along about this time of the year. and
let a rain come even much later than
this and wheat will show that is one
of the few things that will come
back" &
b. E, Baker, who was present during
the interview. recalled the condition
in 1903 when it was practically settled
that wheat was so far gone that no
body would get their seed back. That
was the year, he said, of the famous
brother to brother letters and tele-
grams concerning the crop. This was
IN June and everybody had given up
hopes; but on the night Of July 3, a
rain started that came down In tor
