BUMPER BEAN CROP ASSURED
Experts Agree That Final Figures
May Show 25,00o, 900 Bushels, and
Lower Prices Are In Sight.

There is cheering reinsurance In the
news that this years crop Of beans
will be much more than double the ay-
erage yield, says the Indianapolis
News. As rule the country produces
100000 bushels year. In 1916,
however, when the demand was great
err than ever before, the crop was only
100000 bushels. The shortage was
Immediately reflected In the soaring
prices, and the lowly bean, as a con-
sequence, came In q new prominence.
Scarcity served as nothing else to
bring about a realization Of Its value
and an appreciation Of the place II
occupies on the American menu.
This year, experts agree, the final
figures may show crop Of 100000
bushels. The consumer this winter
should find beans restored TO their nor
NAL prices.
Navy" beans they are called by
some, by others they are known as
army" beans. The New Englander
calls them merely beans. The refer
ence to them, however, as navy" or
army" beans is not without signi-
f1cance. Time was when the bean was
a staple In the ratiOns of both the navy
and the army. 1t appeared frequently,
morning, noon and night; 1t was served
boiled and baked and In soup. The
Civil war, IL has been said, was fought
on beans. The ration OF the United
States soldier and sailor is more va
ried today, but the bean is not lack
ing. II is there as Of yore, better un-
derstood and no less strengthening
or palatable.
How many thousands Of bushels Of
this years enormous bean crop the
army and navy of this country and the
armies and nayies Of our allies will
consume 1t would be difficult to say.
But the experts are Of the opinion that
the crop is by no means greater than
the demands that will be made upon 1t.
Even so, there should be no shortage
and no exorbitant prices. Bean eaters
everywhere will appreciate Mr.. Hoov-
er's careful consideration Of the prod
uct to the end that prices approx
imating the ante.bellum charges may
be restored.

In 1893 Frederick Funston set out
for Alaska on commission to collect
botanical specimens. Today the trail

that time 1t was known only TO Indian
guides and few daring miners who
had followed Its devious ways. Funs-

pass and over to the Yukon. says the
Youths Companion. One Incident of
the trip he describes In his own pic
turesque language as follows:

his load into the snow and announced
that unless their pay was materially

would get themselves back TO the vii
lage, and thus leave us In pretty

A great social truth, says the Phil
adelphia Ledger, was enunciated by
the janitor of n New York apartment
house, who had lost his job, he ex.
planned by his wife's jealousy OF the
ELEVATOR girls he had employed and
was being sued by her for nonsupport.
"Girls are girls" said this shrewd OBJ
server. "and you have to pay more at
tention to them than you do to men,"
The theory that women who 20 into
business should be treated lust like
men" Ii held by many, especially by
the women themselves. II Is an excel
ient theory, but 1t does not always
work.
