whole are in excellent condition and
heavy yields are indicated, and the
forage crops are of supreme import
ance to livestock interests. Even if
less wheat the coming year should
be exported from the United States,
on account Of the increased produc-
ton of Canada, India, and South
America, the prices paid for our sur
plus abroad would still yield large
profits to American producers.
In marked contrast to this is the
remark of the New York Times that
war-profits are missionary and it
points out that in spite of the high
excess of exports, the total of our
foreign trade on account of the war
actually has been reduced" Our inn

Gus road of pioneer days. In this
step that city is displaying an enter
prise that is indeed commendable for
its affords an instance of a munich
pality directly associating itself with
outlying districts in good roads con-
struction.
A few days ago a movement was
inaugurated to put Lewiston into a
good roads district with two districts
north of the river; and it seems
from the spirit in which the move
ment is received by the Lewiston peo-
pic that the plans will be carried out.
Lewiston feels obliged to build this
stretch of good highway because the
Washington authorities have located
their state highway system so tlat
it will reach Charleston from the west
and Uniontown from the norta. The
Lewiston hill road therefore becomes
connecting link.
Such an enterprlSlng movement on
the part of Lewiston, it would seem,
should be an inspiration to good
roads advocates throughout the Ell
tire country. Aside from this appre
citation from people elsewhere, Lewis
ton will be directly and substantially
benefited by the outlay to be made.
There is no question but that good
highways leading into the city are
traffic developers, and Lewiston S
position as a trade center for a con-
siderable district will be further
strengthened by such movement.
Neighboring cities will applaud her
in her attitude.-Star-M Mirror.

SHRINERS ADVERTISE STATE

1t is the general belief of all OBJ
servers that the coming to the
Northwest two weeks ago of some
thing like $4,000 Shriners did more
to advertise the state of Washing
ton in a favorable way than any
event that has taken place in this
territory before. The convention at
Seattle was a tremendous success
and the visiting Shriners who came
to that city by many routes were
most enthusiastic in their praise OF
the portions of the state through
which they passed. A very large
percentage of these visitors are folks
of means and many of them Will
later either come here to take up
their residence or invest their money.
But the end of the tourist tide is not
yet in sight. In fact, it is now but
in its beginning. Officials of the
Oregon Washington Railroad & Nav
igation company state that the peo-
pie of wealth who have liz previous
years spent their playtime in Europe
are now coming to the Northwest in
increasing numbers. One of the
unique ways by which this is deter
mined is in the baggage they carry.
Hundreds of pieces of luggage bear
pastors and tags indicating their pre-
vious Journeys to Europe and their
presence has become so conspicuous
as to excite the comment even of
railroad men.
Statistics prepared by the state
highway department show that since
the first of the year 29 of the 80

we are TO have the largest wheat

an oats crop that outmeasures any

ever observers are more occupied in

the European war for this exception
al production. As the New York
World says, with the prospect of the
world supply depleted by war. and
harvests in Europe everywhere short.
TINS country has reason to look for
ward again to a season of prosper
lty. AS matter of fact. the press
informs us, this market was antici-
pated by American 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 re-
spouse to the history of farm pro-
ducts and prices since the war broke
out. Last year, for instance, there
were reaped in corn, wheat and oats
l9O,000,000 acres; this year there
are now 209,000,O0O acres under the
same crops" This journal adds:

ton of $3,80O,00O,O0O Their mar
ket future is wrapt in many contin-
gencies, in other countries; in any
event, there is apt to be little depreci-
alton from this handsome appraisal"
AS to the wartime consumption of
our foodstuffs, the statement of the
department of commerce shows an
Increase of $500, 100000 in the past
year, we learn from the New York
Journal of Commerce, which adds:
The share of the United States in

closed by the statement of the depart
ment that foodstuffs exported during
the eleven months ending June l
we're valued at $724,00O,0 This
was the principal factor in the ma
tons billion-dollar foreign trade
balance.
THE effect of the war is seen in
the enormous increase in the value
of foodstuffs, compared with the ex-
port figures for the same II months
year ago, when the total was

say:
1T is the best of war orders, be-
cause it comes from the Almighty.
On July /, according to the depart
ment of agriculture, the composite
condition of all the crops of the
United States was 2.3 per cent above
the 10-year average. Corn, our most
valuable crop, has suffered from un-
seasonable weather, but the increased
acreage, especially in the South, at
present forecasts crop of 2,8l4,-
100000 bushels, which is above the
1O-year average by 100, 100000. The
forecast of a bumper wheat crop or
963,OO0,OO0 bushels is dependent
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 now need 1rier
