"The corn crops In parta of Kansas, Ne braska and Indiana are probably tbe finest on record. There has been more hundreds of millions of dollars depending on tbe ri pening of this crop this year than the ordi nary person has ever realized. "While the crop is a little lata any danger of Its failure can now bo considered over. The crop Is a good one. While it may not be a record-breaker, the quality of the corn is splendid and with tbe exception of the southern states the yield per acre is very heavy. In the south the drouth has some what affected the corn crop. Condition of Wheat. "The wheat crop of the west this year is also very fine and what may be considered as really the most important crop of all tbe grass crop is exceedingly good. "The census tells us there has been a great Increase during the last ten years In the number of cattle in tbe United States, This Information, taken together with tba fine crop of grass, Insures lower prices of meat. I don't believe the price of meat, however, will ever be as low aa it has been in the past for the simple reason that the American people are more prosperous than ever before and are eating more meat than ever before. "However, the exceedingly high price of meat will be a thing of the past as soon as the present feeders get fattened up to a beef condition. Another thing that will tend to keep the price of meat a little above the former lower price Ib the demand of Eng land for our meats."
