RECORD CROPS. How well the crop raisers have plan- ned and worked in spite lof the labor bandicap and how well they have beep favored by weather conditions is shown by the estimates of the yields for the vear. Although there were indicatiohs that- it wotfld be otherwise the year has| been a record breaker in several respects. There never was a year when so much corn was produced in the United States and not only were the farmers. favored during the growing season but they were alded by the prolonged harvest period. This country leads thg world in the pro- @uction of corn. Where it has hereto- fore raised 70 per cent. of the world's supply it has in all probability increased that percentage this year for the crop of nearly 3,200,000,006 bushels is the largest by 175,000,000 bushels that was over rdised.

The sweet potato crop goes to a new record with 150,676,000 bushels or. a gain of two. million bushels over the previ tion, large crops of hay, apples, oats, barley, rye and Irish potatoes, which approach- ed if they didn't break the record, that even with the downward tendency of prices there will be a ehance to make up from Yuantity what smalle == | might have brought with higher prices, !the welfare of humanity and to bring|I want Adora to select some brisk and relief to sufferers in disaster stricken sections of the worid Herbert C.
