go out of the city to get a man to fill

don't see why they shouldn't go out

shares in this increased grain produc
ton. Alabama shows gain OF neariy
II7,0O0,0 900 bushels; Arkansas, %, 500,
coo bushels; Georgia, 1890, 900 bush
els; Louisiana. 100000 buhsels; Mis-.
sissippi, nearly 100000 bushels
South Carolina, 100000 bushels; Vir.
ginia, 1S,200,0e0 bushels, while Texas
comes to the front with a gain of
5S,6O0,O00, and Oklahoma, 4O,4OO,OOO
! bushels.
Every business interest in the South
should feel the vivifying influence of
this splendid grain crop. The South
did not this year turn its attention to
grain as largely as it should have
! done, and at the same time still fur
ther lessen its cotton acreage, but it
has made magnificent start, which
indicates its almost limitless oppor-
trnities for grain growing.
In 1900 the production of wheat,
corn and oats in the South was 91,-
100000 bushels, compared with this
years yield of 1,540,0OO,O00. We have
thus advanced the production this year
over 1900 by 630,000,00O bushels.
Well may the South take heart and
rejoice in this splendid showing of
what it can do in grain production.
Even these figures can easily be dou-
bled by the South when it gives, as it
should, proper attention to the widest
Investigation of its agriculture and
to growing at home all of the food
stuffs needed for man and beast.
But looking beyond the South to
the whole country we find that Nature
has again blessed this land with album
dant crops already harvested, and with
the promise of splendid crops now
growing. If weather does not material
~ decrease the expected corn produc-
ton, this years crops will largely ex-
coed in value $4,000 100000. The in
dications of the United States Agricul-
tural Department show probable in
crease in the wheat production of To-
100000 bushels; Of corn, 141 ,0OO. 900
bushels; of oats, 25S,000,OO0 bushels;
of barley, 100000 bushels, and of
rice, 100000 bushels.
With an indicated wheat yield of
9G3,000,000 bushels, which may, by
fair weather conditions, be possibly
enlarged to better yield of spring
wheat, and with an average increase
for the entire country on July / of
fraction less than &c cents per bushel
higher price for wheat than on the
same date in 1914, it is quite safe to
count on this years wheat crop large
ly exceeding $1,OOO,0O0,000. What the
fluctuations may be during the coming
II months it is not possible to fore
cast, by reason of the uncertainties of
war but that every bushel of wheat
will be needed for domestic and for
eign trade and at a very profitable
price to the farmer admits of no ques-
ton.

POLITICAL PICNIC HELD.

Baltimore, Md, July 16.-The Manu-
.facturers' Record of this week says.
The grain crop of the South this year,
will exceed in value by several hun
dred million dollars the total of tn
most valuable cotton crop ever pr13
duced by this section.
The remarkable fact is due to an a !
crease in grain pRednction thronghe ~
the South, which will demonstrst tel
what this section is capable of doingl
in the development of diversified farm
ing. According to the forecast of grain
production for the country, based on
conditions July 1, the production OF.
grain in the Southern States for this
year will be 1,540,000,000 bushels, o.
gain of 2S6,OO0,O00 bushels over last
year. If to the figures covering wheat.
corn and oats we properly add the rice
crop of 100000 bushels, the total
grain for the South this year will be
1870, 1000 900 bushels, and as this years
rice crop exceeds by 100000 bushels
last years, we would have total IL
crease in this section of 292,00o,900
bushels.
This phenomenal situation is all the
more impressive when taken in con-
nection with the grain crop of the en-
tire country.
The estimated yield for the country
for the year, including rice, is 5,414,-
100000 bushels, or an increase of 400
600 900 bushels over 1914. Out of this
total gain, 292, 100000 bushels or nearly
6 per cent, is due to the increase IN
the South The gain in this section
will be nearly 23 per cent. over last
year, as compared with only 512 per
cent for the balance of the country
The actual gain in the South Is 94ss
100000 bushels greater than the IN
crease in the balance of the United
States. These figures are wonderfully
significant of the agricultural POSSIBLE
tiles of the South, and this increase
in grain, which typifies the increase n
foodstuffs generally, lllslargeiy onset
the adverse situation in cotton. In
the South corn commands mucn
higher figure than in the West running
often from 10 to 20 cents bushei
more than Western prices. On TINS
basis, therefore, it is safe to estimate
that the grain crops of the South VIII
represent gain of at least s25o,eoo'-
600 over last years figures.
The gain by States shows a spiendiu
steady expansion throughout the en-
tire South. and for wheat, corn and
oats combined is as follows:

that he had been appointed manager
of the London bureau of the United

Out Of fifty applicants for the po-

bassies, doing noteworthy work. Vice
President Hawkins of the United

weeks ago on business, said that Ack-
erman at the outset of the European
war scored number of beats" from

the Philadelphia bureau, holding that
position until the legislature opened

There are several animals in the
