are confident that they can punish
Russia. Russia is inviting attack,
"Her ships move about prepared for
action, with all possible woodwork
removed and the hulls painted sea

the bitterest blow is the news that in

Tlie His Corn Crop.
The thing of grealest importance
in this country at present is the big
corn crop that is now practically a?
suivd. Notwithstanding the drouth
that has done injury in some locali
ties, the aggregate yield is likely to
closely approximate, if it does not ex
ceed, the highest of the past records.
Mr. Riddle, the capable and well-informed
Freight Trafllr Manager of the
Atchison Railroad system, has made
some estimates of the crop in the ter
ritory traversed by the lines of that
great corporation. Re puts the pro
duet in Kansas at :;iMi.tn..(Hf. bushels,
in Missouri at 2-V.UMHUHXi. in Illinois
at 2."il.iHMi,ooii. and in Texas at 1(K.
imm.mmi. That is to say. in these four
States, thecrop is three times as large
as that of last year, and nearly twice
as large as that of the phenomenal
year of 1 -s'.cJ: and Mr. Riddle calcu
lates that this portion of the country's
crop will furnish l.Mlil.lKld car loads
of tratlic. and k.-cp the railroads busy
for ten months. During the past year,
perhaps 4o.(nwi.ihki or ."iO,(M)'l,(Kiij in
gold ha Ik-it: taken out of the mines,
but Ihe farmers are going to take out
of the soil in the form of corn what is
equivalent to 1 .MNI.IHiil.lKNl of gidd.
Such a crop staggers comprehension,
and illustrates the productive capaci
ty oT the nation in tigures that tell a
story which s-cms marvelous.
It is reported that some of the West
ern farmers are contracting to sell
ihcircorn at Is- to :!. a bushel: but it
is to Ix- hoped that tlii si disposition is
not general. There is no necessity
for marketing corn at such a price,
even though the crop is mi of the
largest in our history. The farmers
who understand their business will
not be in a hurry to sell. They are
not obliged to sell their corn at all as
corn, but can feed it tocattlcaml hogs
with more advantage. It is estimated
that they can thus make it bring not
less than .!v. Thos.- of them who arc
not pressed by debts can do still bet
ter by holding it. until next year, when
it is reasonably sure to command a
higher price, as a big crop is usually
succeeded by a smaller one. It has
hapM-ned more than oni-e -that corn
has sold for 4c to .Kir within eighteen
months from Ihe time when it was le
ing sold at prices lielow mlln- ln-cause
of a lielief that its abundance won id
cause it to go lower. Corn at less
than-l'l'e a bushel is alwavs a safe
sjeeulation. ivg.-trdless of the size of
the crop: and money so invested rare
ly or never fails to yield a lietter re
turn than the ruling rate of interest,
in spite of waste and shrinkage. The
protincers should make tins prolit in
stead of giving it to tlv speculator.
That is where their main chance of
prosperity lies: :anHhiy have them
selves to blame when they take a lower
priii' for corn under the impression
that they must sell as soon as possi
ble on account of the snnplv lieing
larger than the demand. I ! lobe-Dem
