Banner Wheat Crop and
Largest Corn Crop Since
1872 Comparative Figures

A marked tone of satisfaction
is to be noted in editorial COM
ment on the Governments crop
report of July l. We are to have
the largest wheat crop in the his
tory of the country, surprising
even the phenomenal yield of last
year, a corn crop that should be
the largest since 1912, and an
oats crop that outmeasures any
in recent years. In the main,
however, observers are more oc-
cupied in discussing the market
provided by the European War
for this exceptional production.
AS the New York World says,
with the prospect of the worlds
supply depleted by war, and har-
vests in Europe everywhere short
this country has reason to look
forward again to a season of
prosperity" AS a matter of
fact, the press informs us, this
market was anticipated by Amer
ican farmers, who planted record
acreages of all the principal
crops. And this expansion of
crop area is described by the Bos-
ton News Bureau as "the feature
of this years farming-a natural
response to the history of farm
products and prices since the war
broke out" Last year, for in
stance, there were reaped in
corn, wheat, and oats 100000, 900
acres; this year there are now
209, 900, 900 acres under the same
crops" This journal adds:

populated parts of the city could
at least be provided with sewer
system, and as the town can
afford it, the system can be ex-
tended to other sections.
MaryviIle-with a population
of about 8,000-is too large a
town to be without a sewer sys-
tenn. It's too dangerous to the
life and health of the people, and
everyone knows that at some
time the town must have a sewer
system. People will stop coming
here to make their homes, if
there is not more precaution
taken to preserve the health of
the citizenship. The town is
compelled some day to put in a
sewerage system and water
system. WHY NOW NOW?
With the installation of a water
plant-with properly constructed
filter-pure water will be furnish
ed the citizens, the insurance rate
in the downtown district will be
lowered, as the water will afford
an increased protection for build
ings, and living in general will
be more comfortable and safer.
Members of the city council are
willing to listen to their con-
stitutency, and if you want a
sewer system, tell your alderman :
to vote for the issuance of a call
for an election when the voters
can act on this proposition. Your
alderman is your representative.
You have an interest in the town
as a stockholder, for you are a
tax payer, and if you want to
help protect the health of the
family and neigh
bors-go to your alderman and
tell him to vote for a sewer sys-
tenn bond issue and give the
electors an opportunity to decide
whether the town shall have this.
There is no better time than
low to act on this matter, and
o" the prese' walton Of health it
S important that some action be
aiken NOW.

Insurance

The Times article last week
concerning the installation of a
sewer system, and suggestion
that provision for this be includ-
ed in the councils call for addi-
tional water bonds, precipitated
quite a good deal of discussion
among it's readers, who approve
the suggestion and favor the in
stallation of a sewer system.
1t is generally conceded that a
sewer system can be constructed
with as little cost now as at any
time, and is believed that the
time to build the sever is at the
time the water plant is construct
ed. Put both in at the same
time. Maryville must have a
sewer system some day, and now
is as good a time as any to install
it. Bidders on the towns water
plant construction a few days
ago, offered to take any amount
of the city's bonds up to 800, 600,
and that agreement was made in
writing. The bonds can be dis
posed of, and with $4,000, or
about that amount, a very exten-
sive line of sewers could be in

here cited are selling at a market
valuation of So, 800, 600, 600. Their
market future is wrapt in many
contingencies, in other countries;
in any event, there is apt to be
little depreciation from this hand
some appraisal"
AS to the wartime consumption
of our foodstuffs, the statement
of the Department of Commerce
shows an increase of $500, 600, 900
in the past year, we learn from
the New York Journal of Com
merce, which adds:
"The share of the United States
in feeding the world was dis
closed by the statement of the
Department that foodstuffs ex-
ported during the eleven months
ending June l were valued at
$724, 900, 900. This was the prin-
cipal factor in the nations billion
dollar foreign trade balance.
'The effect of the war is seen
in the enormous increase in the
value of foodstuffs, compared
with the export figures for the
same eleven months year ago,
when the total was SAB, 900, 600.
Wheat formed the biggest
item in foodstuffs sent abroad.
In all, 249, SIG, 600 bushels were
exported, an increase of 164, OOO,-

Corn exports were valued at

Americas best asset" " the
Springfield Republican calls the
good crop outlook, which can not
be affected by diplomatic notes
and European war-loans. And
this journal goes on to say:
1T is the best of war-orders,
because it comes from the AL
mighty. On July l, according to
the Department of Agriculture,
the composite condition of all the
crops of the United States was
2 $40 per cent. above the ten
year average. Corn, our most
valuable crop, has suffered from
unreasonable weather, but the
increased acreage, especially in
the South, at present forecasts a
crop of 2,814, 100000 bushels,
which is above the ten-year aver
age by a hundred million. The
forecast of a bumper wheat crop
of 963, 100000 bushels is depend
ent somewhat on a quick change
in the weather in the West, for
harvesting to the best advantage
requires warm, dry days. Oats
promise a record crop, but they
too need drier weather. The for
age crops as whole are in ex-
sc, ient condition and heavy yields
are indicated, and the forage
crops are of supreme Importance
