CROP REPORT OF KENTUCKY.

This is the last crop report Of the
season 1919 issued by this depart
ment, and gives the final estimates on
yield of corn and tobacco, neither
of which crops are entirely housed
yet This crop season has been very
unfavorable, with the extreme drouth
Throughout the summer months and
, the continued rains throughout the
| fall months and much complaint IS
voiced of corn damaging in the shock.
The prospects for the wheat crop
of 1920 in this state are not good.
The anticipated acreage is exception
ally small, the same showing at 50
per cent which, compared with the
ia per cent acreage shown in 1918
shows the crop has been cut so per
cent. The condition of wheat at this
time is given at ~ per cent. Only
about so per cent of the acreage
planned was reported sown up to
November LIST.
The acreage of rye that is beinS
sown is also lower than last year, the
same being IS per cent. with con-
dition showing at 90 per cent.
Barley is sown in but few COM
munities. and the very few reports
coming to this office show the acre
age at % per cent with condition 90
per cent.
Final estimate on the corn crop
shows an average yield of 90 $40 bu.
per acre, which is two bushels per
acre less than last year This would
indicate a production of something
over 100000 bushels for the year.
The estimate on Burley tobacco in
final yield is 716 pounds per acre,
while dark tobacco is estimated at
in both districts than last year.
A light crop of potatoes is also re-
ported. The yield as a state average
is givep at 6S bushels per acre of the |
second crop of Irish potatoes. and 50 /!
bushels per acre of sweet potatoes. !,
Pastures have greatly improved,
and show condition of "a per cent. /
which is an exceptional condition for
this time of the year. All classes of /
live stock are in good condition, and /

Horses number on hand 81 per

Cattle, number on hand SIS per cent

Hogs. number on hand 81 per cent,
80 per CEN.
Sheep, number on hand 50 per /.

Taken as whole, the average
yields for this year have been cut
down, which is attributed TO he UNI
seasonable crop year. Fall work is
greatly delayed on dcCuun, Of con-
tinued rains. and grea, deal of com

fodder being damaged n the shock.
Taking into consideration the ex-

season, and excessive rains during
the maturing season all crops are
cut both as to quantity and quality.

working out this principle. Yet it
was recognized, III very general and
vague phraseology. in the United
States Chamber Of Commerce prin-
ciples referred to before. The prin-
clple was stated as follows:
Industrial harmony and pros
perity will be most effectually pro-
noted by adequate representation
Of the parties in interest. Existing
forms Of presentation should be
carefully studied and awaited of in
SO far as they may be found to have
merit and are adaptable to the
peculiar conditions in the various
industries.
Mr.. John D. Rockefeller, jr.,
member of the conference, has
stated his conception of how such
representation can best be worked
out, as follows
II believe that the most effective
structure Of representation is that

What conclusions are likely to be
reached?
What are the chances that this
conference will succeed in hating
the present Industrial warfare. con-
cededly the most threatening that
the country has ever faced?
Much hangs upon the conference.
With a large part of labor truce
at present exists. The steel labor
leaders refused to postpone their
strike Until after the conference.
But the railway shopmen yielded to
the request of the President for
delay The miners propose d strike
in November. Unless some solution
generally satisfactory to labor is
reached by the conference the pres
ent truce is likely TO end in welter
Of strikes and lockouts by the side
Of which even the present extraordi-
nary unrest will seem mild.

of the soviet theory. But the phrase
was qualified by the words Chased
upon a full recognition of the right
of those who work, in whatever
rank, to participate in some organic
way in every decision which direct
ly affects their welfare or the
part they play in industry This
idea is susceptible of various inter
pretations, but it seems to lean
toward the joint board system of
shop management rather than the
Specialization of an entire industry,
such as the radicals desire.
The labor director is viewed
askance by many radicals who
feel that little is to be gained by
such representation. More opinion
seems likely to unite on the princi-
pie OF presentation in joint shop
committees and joint national
boards of control Not much has
been done in this country toward

criterion. A typical expression of
capitals view was that enunciated
by the Chamber of Commerce of
the United States IN its principle of
industrial peace agreed to by a
referendum vote of it's member
organizations:
The right of workers to organ
ize is as clearly recognized as that
of any other element or part of the
community
A more striking statement of the
same idea was contained in the ma
tional agreement Of the electrical
workers and electrical contractors
and dealers. In many respects this
industrial peace treaty is the most
intelligent and carefully devised yet
written. The clause as to labor
unions is as follows:
Cooperation between employees
and employers acquires construc-
tive power as both employees and
employers become more completely
organized"
One Of the most conspicuous op.
ponents of organization, or. more
accurately, of national unionization
is Mr. Gary, whose testimony be
fore the Senate committee made
clear the point of view Of the en-
ployer who feels that unionizatior
leads inevitably to the closed shop
This point of view seems to be il
the minority, and the chances al
point to the adoption by the Wash
ington conference of strong
declaration in favor Of organlza
ton.
If it does this. it will be follow
ing the precedent Of England
where all the wartime labor con
ierences began by accepting organi
zation as d settled and highly de
sirable principle.

Minimum Wage

A minimum wage was also pro-
vided for in this English report.
II was approved in principle by the
United States Chamber of Com
merce programme in the following
language:
wages should be adjusted with
due regard to the purchasing power
of the wage and to the right OF
every man to an opportunity to
earn living at fair wages, to rea-
sonable hours Of work and work.
ing conditions, to a decent homo,
and to the enjoyment Of proper
social conditions"
The question Of shifting
monetary standard referred to in
this declaration is an important
aspect of this problem and Of the
whole wage question. 1t is the con-
tention of many that if minimum
wage is established it should vary
in proportion to the purchasing
value of the dollar The New Re-
public for example, in suggesting
. truce in striking, proposes the fol-
lowing;
"Neverthe less there Is condition
under which labor might properly
consider truce. That Is an accept
ance by the employers OF the principle
that wages. measured IN purchasing
power, shall not be less ample than
they were in 1913. Admit the Inde1
Number into the wage contract. so that
so much of wages as goes TO procure the
necessaries Of life may rise or fall with
prices. Then neither will the Iaborcr
need TO fear that failure to move for
higher wages now may expose him 70
an aggravation OF distress if prices
rise still higher. nor will the employer
need 70 fear that wages bill res slant

The second point, Of labors share
in shop management and repre-
sentation upon directorates, is
necessarily connected with the first
point Unless labor is thoroughly
organized such representation is I'M
possible.
It has been asserted that Presi-
dent Wilson would advocate the
principle of labor representatives
on boards of directorates at the
coming conference. In his speech

vague phrase. characterization of

Naturalization

Naturalization Is separate ia
sue of great importance which will
undoubtedly be holly debated by
the conference. The Plumb plan
viii doubtless form the centre OF
the railroad discussion. There Is
also the demand Of the Goa miners,
recently adopted by the Cleveland
convention. calling for the nation
alization Of coal mines. IN England
this issue has formed an integral
part Of labor's demands, and Z may
prove SO in the White House con-

The Four Points

The four chief principles about
which the debate seems likely to
centre and which are likely to be
represented in some form in what
ever conclusions are reached are
these:
Collective bargaining.
, The representation of labor in
shop management and upon
directorates.
9 The eight-hour day.
4. The minimum wage.
Unemployment, profit sharing and
child labor are additional problems
that will surely be discussed. As to
the first two. there is certain to be
a great variety of opinion and def
mite conclusions Will be difficult to
reach. AS to the last, there seems
every reason to expect substantial
agreement.
