Crop Estimate Given.

The letter gives the crop estimate
for this year as s5,0o0,o 900, ,600, sub
stantial increase over last year. An i'm
portaut feature Of the situation is that
while the total value Of staples if 9
per cent greater than last season, their
quantity is actually % per cent less.
This means greater prosperity for the
farmer as much less labor and expense
will be required for harvesting and
marketing.
The iron and steel market is reported
unchanged. while much attention is be-
ing paid to the new tariff effects by
the heads Of the industry, most of
whom seem to be optimistic. An in.
crease Is shown in the gross earning of
the railroads, amounting to 1884 100000
over 1910. Yet the earnings, due to in
creased expenses and taxes was only
