WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass, Jul
ly s, 1922.-In discussing the gen.
eral situation for the week, Roger
w. Babson, the statistician, today
made the following analysis of the
crop outlook.
To-day interest is centered
around the prospective 1922 crop
output. I cannot over-estimate the
Importance of agricultural products
at this time, not only as a business
barometer, but as the means of re-
storing confidence and a higher
spending power in those sections
that suffered most acutely during
this depression period. I have trav-
eled through the grain and cotton
areas and know the farmer carried
more than his share of the read
justment responsibilities. Yet this
is history, and the farmer is look
ing forward with considerable opti-
mlsm to probable developments dur
ing the next few years.
THE outstanding feature Of the
June government report is that
acreage of all wheat, oats, and rye
is 20 per cent less than a year ago,
but the estimated yield is Ill per
cent greater. This means that
SlOWlllS dl COIIlplL dllNO-
ly favorable. have yet to witness
year where crop scares and mark
ed price fluctuations did not ma
terialize. Weather and insect raw
ages cannot be forecast, but as
grain output should about equal
wheat crop is nov being harvested,
the yield estimated at "a per cent
over 1921.
Spring wheat figures are placed
at 1873 per cent more than q year
ago, with the total considerably in
excess of the ten-year average.
Nevertheless. wheat is statistically
strong. Our exportable surplus for
the current year was placed at 1885,
100000 bushels. Actual exports for
the season approached 65,006,00
bushels. The relatively large crop
is entirely offset by the limited car
ry-over. Australian and Argentine
stocks are also limited. True, the
price level of wheat is high COM
pared with corn ard oats. Wheat,
however, is the natural leader and I
would make one point clear, namely,
that until Russia is again in a
position to feed a great portion of
Europe, the price of wheat in this
country will remain high.
THE number Of acres devoted to
oats is 6.7 per cent under year ago.
Still the prospective output is %.
per cent more. The estimated yield
of 1905 100000 bushels about equals
the ten-year average. 1t is well
known that oat prices are funda-
mentally too low. Considering the
limited crop of a year ago and heavy
consumption on the farms, the car
ry-over promises to rule far under
normal proportions. This phase is
not discounted by the present price

Well-Known Artist
Admits Income for
Years Only $1,000

LONDON, July 8.-An incomi of
81 800 in four years from the paint
ing of pictures has been confessed
by C. r. w. Nevinson, an artist
known both to England and the
United States. Seeking an explana-
ton, a representative of the London
Morning Post heard some hard
things about art from Mr.. Nevinson,
both in this country and America.
Across the water the study of art
is most discouraging, more than in
England, Mr.. Nevinson declared.
"Was there ever a country with so
many hundred thousand million art
schools-I am never any good at
American naughts-and so few art
lists" he asked. mo wonder the
American public only buys the gilt
edged dead masters, and second.
hand junk from European auction
rooms. America is admittedly only
interested in the dead and the an
tique, so she might as we'll close
her art schools"

GRASSLAND DENIES /
CHARGES OF CRAFT
IN QUARRY VENTURE

Vigorously denying the charge
that he was involved in any illegiti.
mate transaction in the sale to the
state highway department of gran.
tie quarry near Elberton, w. A.
Grassland, federal supervising high
way engineer for Georgia, on Sat.
urday issued a statement explaining
his connection with the quarry sale.
Mr.. Grassland declares that while
on a years leave of absence from
his official duties, he secured an op,
ton on the Elberton quarry, in.
tending to enter private business. Ike
says it then developed that the state
highway department desired to pur-
chase the quarry and the owners Of
the property purchased Mr.. Cross
lands interest so that it might be
sold to the state.
On Friday, in the house of repre-
sentatives. Mr.. McMichael. Of Mari.
on, in the course Of an attack ON
the state highway department, made
the open charge that Mr.. Grassland
had grated" off the state to the
extent of $4,000 in the sale of the
Elberton quarry. Representative
McMichael was speaking in support
of his resolution to secure the adop-
ton by the general assembly of the
minority report Of the special legis.
lative committee which investigated
the highway department last year.
The report of the majority of the
committee, commencing the depart.
ment. was adopted on the last day
of the 1921 session. The minority
report, signed by four members of
the committee, criticized the depart
ment severely, particularly in regard
to the purchase of the r'"orton
granite quarry at the price of 500.

Is Hoping to Return
To Work This Week

403 Evans Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, July 9.-Advices
from the home of Senator Thomas
Watson Saturday afternoon were
that the Georgia senator, who is still
quite sick. is not dangerously so and
he is hopeful of getting back to the
senate early next week.
However, his physician, DR.. Guy
Barnhart, watts Senator Watson to
remain in bed a much longer time
and discourages all talk of his re-
turning to his duties for ten days
or more.
Senator Harris, who has made
daily inquiries about the condition
of Senator Watson, said Saturday
that he was inform I'd that his col
league possibly would get back to
the senate about next Wednesday.
Senator Watson, who has been
suffering from gastritis and bron-
chitis, came out too soon when he
was i'll a month ago and his ply
stefan insists that he must not at
tempt to get to his work for some
time vet.

ARGUMENT RESULTS
IN BRIEF FIST FIGHT

D. B. Blalock, Of Fayetteville,
private secretary to Governor Hard
wick, and Representative C. H. Kit
trell, of Laurens county, came to
blows in the Kimball house lobby
Saturday afternoon as the result Of
an argument concerning Represen
tatiVe kittrell'S attitude toward the
department of agriculture and Com
missioner j. J. Brown, who is being
opposed for reelection by Mr.. Bla-
locks father, A. o. Blalock.
The argument, it was stated by
both parties, hinged on the ques-
ton whether Commissioner Brown,
as chairman of the state board of
entomology, was giving Georgia
farmers the preference on orders
for calcium arsenate. Mr.. Blalock
is said to have repeated an asser-
ton alleged to have been made to
him by State Senator Nix to the eff
feet that Commissioner Brown
caused some shipments to be divert
ed to South Carolina. Representa-.
tive Kittrell is said to have declared
this assertion to be mistake.
In the course of the argument,
which-grew heated, Mr.. Blalock is
said to have called Representative
Kittrell a. liar" whereupon the lat
ter struck him, and Mr.. Blalock
arated by mutual friends.
Mr.. BlalOck made this statement
| to Journal reporter:
II was in the Kimball house lob
by when Mr.. Kitrell approached and
we began conversation which
turned to the department of agri-
| culture. l repeated Statement:
| made to me by Senator Nix to the
| effect that quantity Of calcium
| arsenate needed by the farmers of
his county had been shipped out Of
| the state by truck to South. Caro-
| lima. In repeating the statement
did not accuse Commissioner j. j.
Brown of being responsible for this
| shipment
"Mr. kitrell, however, seemed to

| Commissioner Brown. and told me
| the statement was false. I replied
| that if he meant to accuse me of
making a false statement he was

Representative Kittrell gave out
the following:
''Mr. Blalock approached me in
the Kimball house lobby and en-
| gagged me in conversation regarding
my attitude toward the department
of agriculture. He accused me OF

STATE COTTON CROP

Gay the report was issued.
Since that time there has been a
gradual reaction from the top, due
largely to unsettled European con-

in the United States and the finan-
cial difficulties of Germany. The

The figures showed an acreage in
crease of about ten per cent over
last year, which in the face of the
condition of the growing plant, does
not promise to furnish enough cot
ton, with the small carry-over, to
supply world demands. While the
potential yield is more than 100000
bales than last year, it must be
borne in mind that the carry-over of
last year was something like o.

as that of 1921.

The heaviest buying wave the cot

belief that a famine is in prospect
1t was only another evidence of the

Babson on 1922 Crop Outlook

level. I anticipate a higher aver
age price level for oats i ring the
1929 season. The rye crop shows
the most radical developments of
all. Acreage is 1873 per cent over
last year, while the prospective field
shows an increase of 40 per cent.
With the exception of 1918, this is
the largest figure on record. There
is no fundamental reason why rye
should not follow the general trend
of agricultural products.
with the advent of the new crop
marked price elevation is not logi-
cal. Still no serious price decline
should eVentuate this fall, and the
1929 seasonal rise should be more
pronounced than in the Season about
to close. The Babson Agricultural In
dex of ten leading products is now
quoted at 148. which shows a %.
point rise over the low during the
fall of 1921. The elevation in agri.
cultural products has already in
creased the spending power of the
farmer. 1t should be remembered
that 1922 producing costs-labor, fer.
tiliZer and ransportation-are rang
ing on q more popular basis COM
pared with recent years. Therefore,
with good crops and a higher aver
age price over the next year, the
farmers income Is bound to return
gradually to normal.
Il am particularly interested ir
cotton. The condition is now esti-
mated around 70. which compared
with ten-year average of IS. Last
years crop was the smallest in mod
ern history, yet the record carry
over constituted total figure that
successfully COPIED with the curtailed
European and domestic demand. This
year the Carry-over is Yearly back
to normal proportions and q crop i'll
excess of 11,5000,CG0 bales is not in
Dictated. This means that the total
surlly is abort equal last yeor's
figure, but the potential demand is
G;r;iter.
Europe has been taking between
100000 and 100000 bales annual
ly since 1913" concluded Mr.. Bah
son. THE pre-war figure was be-
tween 100000 and 100000 bales.
Europe must buy raw cotton in
greater quantity if she is to main.
tain supremacy in the finished prod
uct. With the settlement of the pres
ent textile strike, domestic consump
ton will be higher, not lower.
Theoretically there is a world short
age of cotton and until the statistical
position is corrected, condition that
cannot materialiZe for at least an
other year, the average price will re-
main as high # not higher thaH the
present level
General business according to the
index figure of the Babson chart
stands at II per cent below normal.
This is the same as last week, and
is favorable considering the serious
loss suffered through the various
great labor strikes now in progress.
