Barely enough spring wheat for home consumption was the forecast of the present crop by the bureau of crop estimates Friday. An estimated production of 611,- 000,000 bushels will be ‘“not more than the normal domestic require- ments.” The condition of the spring wheat crop on Sept. 1 was 48.6 per cent of normal, as compared with 63.4 on Aug. 1. The condition forecasts a yield per acre of 8.8 bushels, as against -12.5 |, average from 1910 to 1914. The total production of 156,000,- 000 of bushels is forecast, as against an August forecast of 199,000,000 of bushels and a 1915 production of 857,000,000 bushels. A forecast yield per acre of 12 bushels for all wheat is reported as against a yield of 16.9 per acre for 1915. A total production of 611,000,000 of bushels is forecast against 654,- 000,000 bushels as an August fore- cast and a total production of 1,020,- 000,000 bushels for 1915. THE ISSUES. There is a determined effort upon the part of Vance McCormick, Demo- cratic National chairman, to create the impression that there are no real issues in this campaign; that Presi- dent Wilson has done well under try- ing circumstances and that no cog- ent reason for making a change can be presented. According to Chairman Wilcox, there is an abundance of issues. They can, he says, be all summed up in Mr. Hughes’ epigram, ‘‘America first and America efficient.” ‘“Under President Wilson, America has never been first, and America has been woefully inefficient,” says Mr. Wilcox. ‘‘‘America first’ means that the lives and property of Amer- icans will be protected in every land and every clime. It means that the interests of the nation shall not be sacrificed as to what the president may regard as the political welfare of hi party and his own re-election. ‘America efficient’ means that this nation will protect its citizens and maintain their standard of living by an adequate protective tariff. It means that the revenue needed to carry on the government will be raised without the imposition of bur- densome taxes on industry and on the people generally. It means that pub- lic servants, whether they are to rep- resent this country in foreign capi- tals or in the great domestic instru- mentalities of the government, will be chosen because of their ability to perform their duties expeditiously and creditably, without burdening the payrolls with three incompetents where one efficient man could do the work, and not chosen simply with a view to furthering the political for- tunes of the occupant of the White; House. Mr. Hughes’ epigram means that when any group or organization of citizens shall demand that their interests be considered before those of the people as a whole and special legislation enacted for their benefit, without investigation or deliberation, the executive shall put ‘America first,” and insist upon adequate inves- tigation and ‘the rule of reason,” and not betray the cause of arbitration and compel congress to surrender its responsibility as a deliberative body, ‘simply that he may gain the votes of a certain section of the body politic. In a word, Mr. Hughes. stands. for ‘America first and America efficient’ while the Democratic candidate-| stands for ‘Wilson first and political expediency.” That is the issue --of this campaign.” ' T T A glance at the want‘column: may help you sell it. s ey A Sunday morning at 11 o’clock the sermon will be on the subject—*‘Sow- ing and Reaping” (Galatians 6:7-8).

In the major leagues this is different. anh year there is a hot race to the end of the season and the, two best clubs then get together in a series for the world’s championship. The players get their share of the gate receipts and some city gets the honor of being the home of the world’s baseball champions, There is the remedy for the minor leagues. If some way might be de- vised for the minor leagues to play a world’s championship series it would give a stimulus to the game in the ‘lower classifications. There would be a driving fight among the various clubs to get into this title play and the big games would put many a dollar into the coffers of the minor magnates. HKven if they only broke even on the heavy expense of a trip to the city where the games were staged they would have the vel- vet from a season of hot competition and interest aroused among the fans. Frank Isbell, a former member of the world’s champion White Sox when they were piloted by Fielder Jones, is being sounded by various western league club owners who want him to take the presidency of the Western league. Frank C. Zehrung is the present head. Isbell at present owns the Des Moines club. Take advantage of a want ad. FUNERAL DIRECTOR M. E. IBERTSON - UNDER7AKER 405 Beltrami Ave, idji, : Minn. .
