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,-
