Because of complaints of poor busi

are manufacturing and .telling goods
are interested In the prosp -r'.tv of the

this trade to dwindle. They cannot
hope to enlarge their business In a
town which is diminishing In p >l>ula

they hope to Infuse more energy Into

John M Oskison in the Chlt-ago News
A very real boost to the sentiment
of optimism which colored the first
two months of 1814 was given by the
study of figures showing the produc
tion of crops In 1813.
It is on the farms that the greatest
share of the country's new wealth is
created. I'ltfmntely, the farmer Is the
buyer of the Increased number of shoes

If the farmer has more money than
usual to spend, business in general will
be better. That is a perfectly logical
deduction.

point of view looked with Interest for

NEW WEALTH FROM CROPS
It was a record year. More than
$10,000,000,000 of value—ln crops and
live stock—was produced from Ameri
can farms In 1913. The department of
agriculture estimated that of the total
wealth produced there would be sent
off the farms and put Into circulation
through Its channels of trade the sum
of $5,647,000,000. Next door, Canada
came forward, too, with a yield of ex
ceptional magnitude. Including over
j 500.000,000 bushels of grain.
Here, then. Is the farmers’ contrlnu-
Itlon to the funds available for stimu
lating business. Kvery manufacturer
and every merchant whose product
mgkes an appeal to the purse of the
farmer may expect to share in the dis
tribution of that enormous sum. Every
workman who is trying to build up a
savings bank account may expect to
sliare through continuous employment
anti perhapa Increased wages. Every
stockholder In the companies which
manufacture what the farmer wants
