GUM CHEWING TO
INCREASE In 1923
Huge Sum To Be Expended BY
Chicie Manufacturers In Anti

BY ROY j. GIBBONS,
NEA staff Correspondent.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.-You'll chew
more gum this year than you did
last year.
That's because you'll be more pros
porous.
William Wrigley, Jr., is betting
$40, 1000 on that proposition.
"Bnl' Wrigley is one of the great
est of chewing gum manufacturers.
He used to work for So a week; now
he's called "the chewing gum king"
The Wrigley interests will spend
around $1O,OO0,00O in 1928 on an
enlargement program, confident that
business conditions warrant it.
Il have every confidence in 1928.
"The signs are:
Our reviving and increasing trade
with Europe.
"Repeat orders from retailer to
jobber.
"a general pickup in all lines of
trade.
"The physiological scare of a year
ago is past. Business is moving
briskly. There is no appreciate stag
nation"
But "Bill'' says: Something will
have to be done for the farmer. He
hasn't been getting what might be
called square deal. If some system
could be evolved whereby he could
hold his produce until it's needed, in
stead of dumping it onto the market
and creating an oversupply, there'd

latest year for which figures are
available shows a slight increase
over that OF the closing year CT
the war, though the changes in
this article of food are less notice
able than in the other lines by
reason of the fact that most of the
rice crop of the world is produced
at a point far distant from that in
which war activities interfered
with local production or demanded
the services of those engaged in
agricultural industries.
The above figures which COM
pare the aggregate records OF
agricultural outturn in all report
ing countries in the latest available
year with those of the same coun-
tries at the close of the war are
necessarily exclusive of Russia
for which no detailed statistics of
production have been available

of the annual average in the FIVE
year period preceding the opening

parts of the world, notably Tur-

cal divisions in Europe, and the

by the United States Department
OF Agriculture. Rye, another inn
portant food grain in certain parts
of the world, is reported by the
u. S. Department OF Agriculture at
7S3000,0O0 bushels in 1921 against
4730O0,0G0 recorded in 1917, and a
prospect that the crop of 1922 in
the reporting countries will ma
terially exceed that of 1921. Corn,
of which a steadily increasing
quantity is used as food for man
and large part OF the remainder
turned into meats for his use,
shows a recorded production IN
1921 of 3,7l0,000,O00 bushels against
3,129,000,000 in the closing year OF
the war. Oats, another cereal OF
which a small share is used as man
food and the remainder for draft
animals, show slight decline in
output in 1921 as compared with
earlier years, though to what ex-
tent this decline is due to the in
creasing substitution of the auto
mobile and farm tractor tor the
horse and mule cannot yet be de-
termined. Barley, more largely
used for brewing purposes than
for food, shows a recorded total
of o69,0O00O0 bushels in 1921
against an annual average OF
slightly more than l000,000,000
bushels in the five years preceding
1921. The recorded production of

The outturn of the principal
classes OF food produced direct
from the soil has, in the countries
for which records are now avail
able. slowly but steadily increased
since the close of the war, and
their 1922 food crop seems likely to
exceed in the grand aggregate that
of any year since l9l5, in which
so many millions OF then were
transferred from the farm to the
battlefield. The International In
<stitute OF Agriculture at Rome has
lust announced a recorded world
wheat crop for 1922 OF 2,932,000,000
bushels against 2,Z8S,00O000 in the
year preceding the close OF the
war, and reports from the Depart
ment of Agriculture, at Washing
ton, indicate that the recorded
production OF rye, barley and po-
tatoes in 1922 will also exceed that
of last year and stand materially
above that of 1917. In fact, the re-
ports OH world production Of the
! great food articles-wheat, rye,
rice, potatoes, corn, barley, and
oats-indicate grand aggregate
for the reporting countries in 1929
larger than that OF any year since
that which followed the opening
Of the war. These figures for
1922 it should be clearly under

ton OF the countries for which
continuous reports have been had
during and since the war and are
not comparable with those OF pre-
war years which included Russia,
