Corn, wheat, hay and cotton are the
big money crops in this group of farm
products The value of the cotton is
estimated on the basis Of the present
August figures of 20.7 cents pound,
while the value given for last year is
estimated on the basis of 9.S cents a
pound, the price of cotton being more
than double what it was year ago.
If the price of wheat were now high
er the value of this years wheat crop
in prospect would be much higher.
The wheat crop yield for 1922 is esti-
mated at SO5,O00,OO0 bushels, as COM
pared with a yield Of 795,000,000 BUSH
els last year but the August average
price for wheat is 97.1 cents bushel,
while in August of 1921 the price was
104.S cents bushel.
While there has been considerably
larger yield of rye, the value on the
basis of this August's figures for the
increased crop is about the same as
that for last years smaller crop on
last August's higher figures. The pro-
duction of rye in 1922 is estimated as
7960O,OO0 bushels, compared with.
production of only 57,9OO,GOO last
year, but the average price this Au-
gust is only 7O.5 cents bushel, COM
pared with a price of 9S.1 cents a
bushel in August, 1921.
There is not much difference be-
tween this months prices of oats, bar
ley and peanuts compared with those
of last August.

LORD NORTHCL|FFE DIES
after LONG ILLNESS
Noted English PubIicist Is Victim
of Heart Trouble, But Sue
CumbS in Peace.

London-Viscount Northcliffe, noted
British publicist, is dead.
News of Lord Northcliffe's death
was given out by the doctors who have
teen attending him in this bulletin:
"Viscount Northcliffe died at 10 :02
o'clock. The end was perfectly peace
full"
The death of no other unofficial per-
son could have made deeper impress
sion in England than that of Lord
Northcliffe. The news was not a sur
prise, as the bulletins issued by the
doctors for the last week plainly indi-
Gated that their patient was dying.
Lord Northcliffe was by far the most
noted figure in British journalism, and
the first question on everyone's lips
was as to what effect his death will
have on the policies of the Times and
his other newspapers, which since the
end of the war have strongly opposed
the Lloyd George administration and
its principles, with the notable eXcep-
ton of it's dealings with Ireland, which
tlle 4Nol IISlllIe plSSS SuppOl
throughout.
The medical terms used in giving the
cause of Lord Northcliffe's death were
ulcerative endocarditis, streptococcal
septicemia and terminal syncope.
This, in popular parlance,. means an
inflammation of the lining membrane
of the heart, with consequent infection
of the blood, and sudden failure Of the
heart due to fainting.
Alfred Charles William HarmswOrth,
first Viscount Northcliffe of st. Peter
in the County of Kent, was a COM
manding figure in Great Britain for
many years. He was the most con-
spicuous newspaper man in the EN-
pire, and indeed one of the greatest in
the world.

Globe Trotter From Wrangen
 Now in Chicago

Ray Ready, a Wrangell boy of a rowing tendency, has become such a habitual globe trotter that no one is ever surprised at hear ing from him from any part of the world. During the past 12 months he has been in China, South America and Europe. A few weeks ago he arrived in New York from Italy where he spent the early part of the winter. While in the Eastern metropolis he was approached by a newspa- per reporter. Ray was reticent, but the reporter was insistent and finally got a story that filled a column. Ray told of being a son of an Indian chief at Wran- gell, Alaska. This statement was duly corroborated when Ray took from his pocket some pictures of himself taken in Indian costumes. The pictures were taken by MT. Worden the last time Ray was in Wrangell, and the costumes used were borrowed from Mr. Healy.
 The story further stated that Rays proper title in Alaska is Chief White Eagle. Following the story of this remarkable Es- kimo lad who left his own people to cast his lot with the whites, Rays picture was exhibited at a great bazaar in New York.
 Leaving the Eastern metropolis Ray went to Chicago early this month and entered the employ of a printing concern. After a few days at this work he enrolled as a student at the Chicago Lino- type school. With a knowledge of a Linotype Ray will be better equipped than ever for barn. storming his way around the globe. as linotypes are found in every country of the world.
