WINTER WHEAT CROP
BIGGEST ON RECORD
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
FORECASTS YIELD OF $4,000
900 BUSHELS
GOOD TIMES FOR FARMERS
Enormous Sums Paid to Growers VIII
Quickly Find Way Back Into Cir
culation and Add to General
Prosperity Of the Nation

Washington, April 9.-FOrecast by
the department Of agriculture yester-
day that the nations winter wheat
crop would total S37,OOO,O0O bushels,
the largest crop ever grown, aroused
immediate speculation as to the cost
to the government Of such yield.
Under the bill passed by congress-
the government is obligated to pay the
difference between the guaranteed
price of S226 bushel and the world
market price for every bushel of win
ter and spring wheat produced.
The total value Of the winter wheat
crop on the basis Of an 1877 10000
bushel crop forecast, would be $751;
100000. The spring wheat crop can
not be estimated at this time, but de-
partment Of agriculture officials yes
terday predicted it would range be-
tween 225,OO0,O0O and 300,OOOO0O BUSH
els, which would increase the total
value of the nations wheat crop to ap-
proximately two and half billion dol
lars.
The part of this two and a half bill
lion dollars that the government must
pay to maintain the guaranteed price
was Il matter upon which officials
here declined to comment. 1t was
| said that the factors influencing the
world market price We're too numer-
Gus to make any prediction.
Means Prosperous Farmers.
Officials believe there will be q
good foreign demand for American
| wheat which will take care of the ma
tons surplus, and while the loss tC
the government through its price
! guarantees may run into the millions
of dollars, it simply will be taking
money from one pocket and putting il
into another. Officials believe the
more prosperous and possess greater
potential buying power than ever be
fore. The enormous sums farmers vii
receive for their wheat, it was said
should find its way back quickly int,
circulation, thus adding to the genera
prosperity of the nation.
Yesterdays forecast indicated tha
America will have greater surplu.
than ever before. The United State,
requires for its own yearly consump
ton about 5.3 bushels of wheat f0
each person With approximately 10.
100000 people in the United States ant
adding approximately -, 600, 900 bush
els of wheat which is necessary fo
feeding purposes, the demand of thi,
country this year is estimated at NOR,
than 650O00,000 bushels.
With spring wheat production
estimated at from 22J,000.OOO to 300.
100000 it would appear that the surplus
available for export would be abou
450 100000 bushels.
What these figures mean is indi

Washington and tele-

diately operations for their own &C
count, by Postmaster General Burle-
son. The postoffice department, how
ever, under terms of Mr.. Burleson's
order, retains a measure of control of
the services, pending final legislative
action by Congress.
Regulations prohibiting discrimina-
ton against wire employees because of
union affiliations, maintaining exist
ing rates and charges and instructing
companies to keep special accounts
to facilitate cost settlement between
themselves and the government, are
retained in effect under the order is
sued by the postmaster general
Mr.. Burleson accompanied the or
der with statement giving the rea-
sons which impelled him to take the
action. He asserted that the Presi-
dent having recommended the return
OF the properties, the senate interstate
commerce committee having indicated
that immediate return was advisable
and the house committee having
through hearings manifested desire
for action toward that end, he felt it
his duty to return operative control
to the various owners.

Uniform System of Collecting
To Be Adopted June LIST

for the convenience Of those VINE
might prefer to pay at office rather
than to remit by mail The sub
scriber would have plenty of tins
to check up his toll calls and pay at
his convenience any time during the
month. If it is not paid during the
month, the next bill mailed out
will carry the Arrears on it. This
second bill, carrying arrears, would
be expected to be paid in full not
later than the 10th of the month
This maximum limit will be 40 days
from the date of the first bill; and
il payment in full is not received by
the expiration of this time the sub.
scriber will be told by the operator
when he calls central that his "serv.
ice is suspended" Ordinarily toN
m essage accounts will be carried the
same as local service, as above ex.
planned; but under certain circum-
stances it will be necessary to col,
lect toll messages on demand.
The foregoing plan of col1ectina
has been found best by those using
it, and is in general use throughout
the. whole country. It is approved
by the North Carolina Corporation
Commission and the Interstate Cor.
poration Commission.
We wish to make the special re-.
quest that your account be settled in
full during this month (May).
Trusting to receive your hearty
cooperation, we wish to remain.

Il has been evident for some time
that our present methods of col
1ecting were both Inadequate and
unsatisfactory. In the past we have
employed a collector, but large
number Of our subscribers prefer to
pay at our office and regularly do
80. A great many, when interrupted
by the collector calling, will tell him
to leave his bi1l-that they prefer
to send a check by mail. A consid-
cradle number make special re-
quest of Us to mail their bills to them
at the first Of the month, which we
do. Others pay the collector on his
monthly rounds. The collector is
being detained now much more than
previously on account of the in
creased number of toll messages to
identify, so it is impossible for him
to complete his rounds. The Direc-
tors of the North State Telephone
Co., at a recent meeting, adopted "a
uniform system of collecting, the
same as is in general use by practi-
cally all telephone companies and
public utilities.
Under the new plan, beginning
June first, we will mail every sub
scriber his bill on the first of the
month, for the current months
service. We will also include q
statement showing all toll NJ essages.
