ENORMOUS CORN CROP
PREDICTED

Indications of an enormous corn
crop, probably the third largest
ever grown; slight improvement in
the prospects for wheat, prediction
of the smallest potato output since
1919, and unfavorable fruit fore
casts were set forth in the July
crop report by the Department OF
Agriculture.
With higher condition than the
1O-year average and an acreage 1.5
per cent larger than last years,
corn production was forecast at
1905, 100000 bushels, 100000
bushels more than last year.
Among the causes listed for the
larger increase were the high price
of corn and a tendency to increase
feed crops for livestock.
The condition of the crop ranges
from average to excellent, outside
of drought areas in Texas, Oklahoma
and Kansas. In the corn belt the
crop was thriving.
Wheat prospects Increased 49,
100000 bushels during June, a
forecast of 68O,OOO,OOO bushels be-
ing made for this season, Winter
wheat lost 100000 bushels dur
ing the month, but spring wheat
prospects i mere as e d 22,OO0,00O
bushels.
Production of wheat in eleven
countries of the northern hemis-
,phere, including the United States,
which porduce normally So per
cent of the northern hemisphere
crop and So per cent of the world
crop, except Russia's and China's,
was estimated at 1,568,0OO,0
bushels, 124,000,000 bushels less
than last year.
Indicated production of white
potatoes was 350,OOO,O00 bushels,
which would be 100000 less
than the large crop of 1924. Great
reduction in acreage, which is the
lowest since 1907, was attributed to
losses because of heavy production
year ago.
The season has been unfavorable
for fruit production throughout most
of the country, except on the Pacific
Coast. The gain in peaches, pears
and grapes over last year in that
region has been sufficient to offset
the decrease elsewhere, and nearly
sufficient to do so in the case OF
commercial apples. The total apple
crop was forecast at $4,000, 900
bushels, 22,0O0,OOO less than last
year.

A GOOD CLUB FOR
AUTOISTs

A "Safe Drivers Club" is being
organized among the officers and
employees of the Pennsylvania
Railroad System, who are drivers Of
automobiles. The purpose OF the
club is to warn motorists to exercise
proper care when approaching or
driving over railroad-highway grade
crossings, to prevent being struck
by trains. To become member one
must agree to drive caSefully, APP
proach all railroad-highway cross
ings cautiously, and be assured that
no train is approaching before
crossing the tracks,

motorists. 3 The background of thE
tag is blue, with letters of orange

The Safe Drivers Club is fea
ture of the Careful Crossing Cam
paign being conducted on the Penn
sylvania Railroad, and other rail
roads in the United States, under the
auspices of the American Railroad
Association, during the months OF
June, July, August and September.
The object of the campaign is t.
bring to the attention of the Amer
lean people the necessity for exer-
cising the greatest possible care to
avoid being struck and killed or in
jured by trains while travelling oven
highway crossings, and to impress
upon locomotive enginemen, tiremen,
conductors, brakemen, track former,
crossing watchmen and all othel
employees the necessity for doing
everything within their power t.,
prevent such accidents.

WHEN GOVERNMENT SAVES

Far from hurting business, the
governments economy policy has
been of the utmost advantage to
business" says the New York Sun.
ut has already resulted in reduc-
ton of several hundred million
dollars a year in federal taxes; it
promises to bring about tax re-
duction OF 5000, 100000 or $500,
100000 more next year.
when the government saves
money it does not mean that the
money is not spent. What it does
mean is that, instead Of being spent
by officials to keep unnecessary
bureaucrats in unproductiye jobs,
the money is left in the hands OF

that the main building covers an area
of about three acres with concourse
covering 10000 square feet The en-
tire terminal facilities cover more than
30 acres and will expedite the prompt

passengers, 400 tons of baggage and
300 trains daily with room for future
expansion. Fifteen acres of glass
were used in the various coverings
over the train sheds, which extend
more than 1000 feet beyond the main
structure. A total of 1900 tons Of
structural steel, 175,OOO cubic feet of
Indiana limestone and 10000 cubic

IsIMoRTALIzED THE PIONEERS

The newspapers of the United
States are handing compliments to
the late Herbert Quick who has
recently passed on from his brilliant
career as a fiction writer to the
realm of the unknown.
He was to Iowa and the Middle
West such a chronicler OF its true
life as was the late Emerson Hough,
who wrote The Covered Wagon and
immortalized the eonquerors of the
Far West.
Both Hough and Quick were all
round Americans. and sympathetic
with the struggles Of the pioneers
who made this nation reality.
Their stories are clean as the
winds of the Iowa prairies, whole
some and invigorating as, the lives
they dipict. leaving no excuse fol
reproducing degenerate literature
for American families to read.

Two men prominent in world af-
fairs have passed away. One a
leader of organized labor, the other
the head of one of the world s
greatest railroad systems.
Both rose to commanding posi-
lions by hard work and ability.
One, after 20 years as a locomo-
tive engineer was made President
Of the Brotherhood OF Locomotive
Engineers. He opened the eyes OF
labor to the possibilities OF using
it's financial resources in the bank
ing business. He was labor's first
banker and labor's greatest banker.
Warren Stone would have made a
success in any calling.
julius Kruttshnitt was railroad
genius and an exceptional scholar.
He was a walking encyclopedia on
rail and transportation questions,
and actually gave his life to up
building a railroad system. He was
the dean OF American railroad
executives.
1t is hard to replace such char
acters, but, the mere fact that they
lived and carried on means that
they transmitted their spirit of en-
deavor to others who will make
even greater strides in the interest
of the public welfare as the result
OF the training they secured under
such master minds.
