""The present Indication point to a corn crop of 3,160,000,000 bushels, or 230,000,000 bushels more than were produced last year. Possibly the crop may go to 3,800,000,000 bushels. The crop in this country has never crossed , the three billion toushefs line, but all the Indications point to that achievement and a rec ord crop. - , v As 80 per cent of a corn crop goes to make meat, the prospect is good that both beef and pork will be a- bundantly produced after September and prices should be lower. But In the making of prices of beef and pork In this country another element besides corn supply enters in.

Birmingham Age-Herald. ' - Oar Oottom Goods tn South America, Washington Dispatch. -; '' : ; - The Department of Commerce and Labor has a commercial agent trav elling through 8onth America, Inves tigating the cotton goods Industry. The results of his investigations In Argentine, Uruguay and Paraguay have Just been published In a mono graph. "Cotton Goods in Latin Amer ica." by the bureau of manufactur ers. These countries purchase more IM OFFER Gazette and the follow known on application. than $20,000,000 worth of cotton goods every year but buy less than $3,000,000 worth from the United States, although in this trade the United States has the advantage of lower freight rates than European countries get. The chief obstacle to larger sales seems to be the failure of American manufacturers and exporters to con form closely to the requirements of the market. The principal reason assigned for the comparatively small sales of American cotton goods in Argentina, which include scarcely anything beyond cotton bags, yarn and duck, is that their port trade is controlled by a few big foreign hous es, which bare long-established con nections with European firms and In many cases are practically exporter's agents and therefore not Interested in American cottons except when they cannot obtain goods of the same Quality as cheap elsewhere.

Per haps because of earlier disappoint ment or because the company was so largely composed of local people, the citizens of Rutherfordton gave little credence to the possibility of con structing so important a line by the promoters. However every day has seen the company grow in financial strength, in the personnel of stock holders, and in. assets, until it num bers some of the strongest financial and business people In the State, and Is recognized as an Important factor in railroad circles. It is doubtful If another North Carolina railroad company can show such a rapid growth, so much done in the same length of time and pros pects so thoroughly satisfying as this company. For instance the Southern Power Co., backed by the Dukes, many times millionaires, secured through their Mr. Lee a franchise in Gastonia two years ago and yet the Piedmont line Is not even surveyed and they are asking contributions to the ex tent of $600,000 cash in North Car olina and $600,000 cash in South Carolina. The Isothermal on the contrary or ganized and working in four months, has raised the money to make its survey, and pay its other expenses. It has made the survey from Ruther fordton to Gastonia, permanently lo cated a part of its line that it ex pects to build this fall, has secured all its franchies on the line as it wil be run, and has ample funds to meet its every obligation and a nice surplus for future contigent expens es. Its board of directors are as clean and able a body of me nas ever di rected the affairs of a corporation in this State. Among them are bank ers, merchants, contractors, newspa per, real estate and manufacturing men. It has some seventy or eighty stockholders and Is recognized in the world of business and 'finance as a real live concern, and its enter prise as a most excellent one. Many offers have been made to fi nance the entire line, one being from a Paris, France, representative of a French syndicate, others from New York, Philadelphia and -Montreal, so that the matter of money for con struction is fully assured. The survey to Gastonia having been completed, the camp and crew are being moved back to this place. It will take fully two weeks for Chief Engineer Pearson and assist ants to make up profiles, field and other maps, and work up the quanti ties upon which estimates of cost of construction are computed. These matters completed the corps will start on the survey of the line to Ashevllle, which It is expected can be finished in fifty days. Part of right of way has already been secured, and this work will be pushed as rapidly as possible. The general public has but little conception of the vast amount of detail work to be done In an under taking of this character, and the a mount of time consumed in doing it properly. It must be done right or it will all be to do over again, and the directors are trying to move with the utmost care, covering every de tail and requirements, and . at the same time move with expedition. Speaking for Rutherfordton alone, too much praise cannot be accorded the gentlemen who inaugurated this movement and brought about the now complete organization, nor should less praise be given those gentlemen who later joined the company and are now bending their best efforts, not only for this town, but every town on the line. The people should not be impa tient; railroads are not built In a day,' a week or a month. It takes much time, great energy," patience. endurance and money, and two years Is a short time In which to ac complish so vast an undertaking. Many important plans are of course being worked out by the man agement that cannot be made public. Many Interests are apparently involv ed in this vast enterprise that does not show on the surface, but It is ev ident to the close observer that oth er and stronger financial Interests are behind this enterprise than those purely local. .

Beleagured by the seven hosts of winter, it withdraws Into the impregnable fortress of its subter ranean vitality and emerges upon the first solicitation of spring. Sown by the winds, by the wandering birds, propagated by the subtle hor ticulture of elements which are its ministers and servants, it softens the nude outline of the world. Its te nacious fibres hold the earth in its pUue and prevent its soluble com ponents from washing into the wast ing sea. It invades the solitude of the deserts, climbs the Inaccessible slopes and forbidding pinnacles of mountains, modifies climates and de termines the history, character and destiny of nations. Unobstructlve and patient, it has immortal vigor and aggression. Banished from the thoroughfares and the field, it bides its time to return and when vigi lance is relaxed or the dynasty per ished, it silently resumes the throne from which it has been expelled, but which it never abdicates. It bears no blazonry of bloom to charm the sense with fragrance or splendor, but its homely hue Is more enchant ing than the lily or the rose. It yields no fruit In earth or air, and yet,' should its harvest fail for a single year, famine would depopulate the world." 9100 Reward, 9100.
