s(NeW York Evening Sum-
 The recent formation of protective organizations by the American and foreign holders of Mexican invest ments shows that a new hope has sprung up of seeing again money long loved and lost awhile" The announcem ent of last month, that the Mexican treasury was beginning to show on it's monthly balance sheets surplus over current expenditures available for interest payments. gives some basis for hope.
 The ability to get on without con- tracing loan would greatly magnify the favorable prospects. Any debtor will agree to resume interest pay ments on condition that he get a fur ther loan. Additional loans often furnish a nation with it's means of meeting existing interest charges. But to pay with one hand, without bor- rowing with the other. would con- Stitute real sign of financial rogen- cration. Can Carranza bring Mexico 10 this stage?
 There is no necessary question of the Mexicans' giving uD forever the privilege of going into debt In a few years. provided they and the

Prosperity in Kentucky.
(Grant County (KN.D NeWS)

(Grant County (kN.) -NeWS)
 The banks of the county are over- flowing with money. The deposits of the two banks in WiliamstoWn now amount to more than million dollars. and there are eight other banks in the county. While we have no informa- ton available to furnish our readers with a correct statem ent al the pres ent time, it is quite probable that total deposits in all Grant county banks will exceed $3,000.OO0. This is a mil lion dollars more than last year at this time and fully three times as great as the deposits were ten years ago. To the trem endously high prices the farmers have received for all kinds of produce and especially for their main money crop, tobacco. may be attributed the increas SC in bank de- posits along with the wealth of the country. Ten years ago we had an assessed valuation of less than $3, ,000- 900, a sum not equal to our deposits. Truly our people are growing wealthy,

Saving Wheat Subsidy.

The artificial stimulation of wheat production for the present year may turn out, after all, to have been a Wlse policy. The nation has been recon ciled to losing about a billion dollars as result of the wheat guarantee to American farmers. This has been ac- cepted philosophically as war ex- pense that could not have been fore- seen. But according to statements made by Herbert c. Hoover, interna- tional food administrator, the govern ment may not lose anything on the wheat crop. For instead of great world surplus of wheat this year, he foresees a possible deficit again.
 The close of the war has not imme- diately increased production. Several countries which normally export wheat. among them Russia, Bulgaria, India, Runania and Serbia, will have to import grain this year. mus II there is freedom in the world mar ket. the price will rise. American wheat, therefore, may actuaiiE Dc worth S2,e6 a bushel, or even more than that, in the open market.
 It is too early yet to make more than rough guess. But from the present outlook. even Ii the plahtlhg of spring wheat is as heavy as mas been expected, and the American crop beats all records, 1t Will sthi oe heeueo and readily absorbed.

 Reports received by the secretary, Clio Harper, from the farmers, mer- chants and bankers in various parts of the state appointed as delegates to the convention are that there is a treat interest in the meeting and a representative attendance is expect ed. In stating the objects of the As sociation the secretary says:
 "rhe American Cotton Association Is pushing forward the erection of warehouses in every cotton produc- Ing county in the cotton belt. with uniform warehouse certificates, so that the producer at all times will be supplied with warehouses for storing his cotton at the lowest possible warehouse charge. having his cotton insured and protected against the weather. preventing the possibility Of outside adverse interests controlling eLd manipulating he warehouse /ys- tenn, which certainly prove calamity tc the producer.

OPERATION IS A POSSIBILITY
Doctors Leave impression Tha: Gland May Have To Be Removed-Be- lieve President Is Strong
 Enough For Operation.

Washington. Gravity of Presi. dent Wilson's general condition was somewhat increased by developments s pertaining to his disordered or swol- len prostrate gland and the possibili- ties of an operation being necessary to alleviate this phase of his indispo- sition
 A general consultation of the regll- larly attending physicians and Dr. Hugh Young. prostatic specialist from the Johns Hopkins University of Baltimore, was held regarding the condition of the prostrate gland and the advisability of an operation. In were: Dr. Gary T. Grayson. the pres ideut's physician: Dr. Sterling Ruffin of Washington Rear Admiral Stitt. read of the medical school and Dr. Fl, A. Fowler. a Washington prostatic specialist and one-tine assistant to Dr. Young
 Dr. Grayson said that the swollen gland and the complications arising from the condition greatly hampers the general improvement of the presi. dent and that it had been decided to concentrate attention on that aspect of the case. He said the president is slowly. but steadily improving. the cnly drawback being the glandular trouble.
 The bulletin issued by Doctors Crayson, Ruffin. Sti.-, Young and Fow' lcI. is as follows.
 '"The presidents prostrate gland swelling referred " in previous bGl- letins is definitely improved and causing little discomfort so that the treatment has been simpifed. Tn. kidneys are functioning normally and tie heart action is excellent. he tenn rerature. pulse and blood pressure re- main normal
 The impression was conveyed by Dr. Grayson that tue removal of the prostate gland was simple operation in itself and that Ill the event tna; it was deemed reces$ary tho president was physically strong enough to un- dcrro the opcratio,.

Biologists have divided the entire surface of the earth into life zones, each zone having much the same flora and fauna wherever found.
