Washington, Nov. 18.-Administra
ton officials made public today an &C
emulation of data relating to bust
ness expansion, which it is declared
shows the country to be on the thresh
hold of an era of unprecedented pros
perity.
In the light of this data, it is as

cial said:
. Prom the West and from the South
now comes the same reports of fail
weather in the business world. The
gloom that prevailed in the South has
given away, according to the clippings
and to reports from Southern men
visiting the White House to a most
optimistic frame of mind. Diversifi'
cation of crops has taught the South
ern farmer great deal Of value to
him, and by reason of this diversified.
ton this years cotton crop was re-
duced so much that good price is
now being derived. M
"In the West there is one general
song of wholesale revival of business;
huge crops bringing fancy prices; rail
roads ordering thousands of new
freight cars; construction of many
new enterprises; increased capitaliza-
ton of existing business concerns;
immence increase in bank deposits;
fewer men idle, and hopefulness
everywhere, with strong demand for
skilled men.
"In the East reports are unvarying.
All steel concerns are so busy many
of them have given orders to their
statesmen to hunt no new business;
copper and other mines are turning
out tremendous quantities of copper
and iron ores; blast furnaces are CIV
ing indications Of turning out 100000
