Whats the matter with our people? Are we ever going to get a move on us and fix up our Htreets? W o hear Republican politicians and newspapers say much these \ days about republican prosperity j perhaps the following statistics compiled by the department of agriculture will help toexplain why times are better than a few years ago. The corn crop for 1902 reached the enormous figure o f 2,523,000,000 hush-lsjust 1.091,000,000 bushels more than in the year 1901 which was a record braker. The wheat crops of tfie United States in 1901 and 1902 ¡Anounted to 1,418,000.000 bushels which brought the farmers just $200,000,000 more motiay than any two years previous to 1890.! The ont crop o f last year was 9.87.- - 000,000 bushels a gain of25per cen t1 over 1901 which was also a record breaker at that time. Nor is this all. The production o f hay in the United States last year amounted to 20,000,000 tons more that anv previous year in tiie history o f our country. For the past five years the staple products have brought the farmer more that $2,000,000,000 more than did the same products during the previous 5 years. The corn, wheat oats and potato crop o f last year iras larger than any previous year in our history by over 1,590,000,- 000 bushels.
