r • &- l f 'I I ’ $■ department it is estimated that the wheat area Heeded tides f»H for the harvest, of 1009 is 1ml 7Gper cent, in comparison with last year’ s area, or 1,110,513 nere®, Tlus is. the lowest area reported in a isumber o f years past, due principally to the drouth prevailing at proper seeding time, and owing to its long continuance, the filial abandonment of many .JUdds intended for wheat. The con- dllion of the growing plant is esti­ mated at 60per cent.compared with an average, and the general outlook Is very discouraging. As stated in the October report; there has not; been sufficient moisture for proper germination, and no doubt many lields will be plowed up In the spring, thereby further reducing an already sbortarea, The figures on alfalfa are the most rcomplete ever published by the State, axul show thoton an estima­ ted area of 12,223 acres was pro­ duced .39,700 tons,- The average number of cuthugs urns three and the total production per acre from, all ciUtings was three tons. The area in^907 as returned by the township assessors was Sip acres -greater tban the estimated area-are now reported, The corn prospect has advanced .three points since the issuance oi ,tbe last report, being n.,w estimated at 83 per cent compared with an average. The corn area is approxi- * inately the same as for 1807, while the present prospect is it> per cent . better than the corresponding month lafftyear. The estimated area planted to po­ tatoes as reported by the township •assessors was 115,581 acres and the . correspondents now estimate the average production per acre at 82 bushels, ’giving- a total production tor the state as a whole' of 9,485,830 bushels. This is a shortage of ap­ proximately 100,000 bushels in com­ parison With the crop of 1907, The damage by rot is very Small, being reported at less than 2 per cent. ; our . A nniversaries . J - '■ , r'- r»‘ ** 1 \ A Critic Who Takes Exception to the Celebration of Birthday*/ “While not intending, to change . the dates of any anniversaries now u existing,remarks tho meddler, “J "do wish to make a few timely and original remarks upon the 'absurdity of the custom. “ Why should the celebration of . a great man bo held upon the anni* , versapy p£ his birth?' Was there - anything remarkable in that? Did any benefit accrue to the world at that time? Is there any part of Itis existence for which he is less responsible? Surely not. It is ab-, surd that in.njofig. antLillustrious, lifefiine the date that should be se­ lected for an anniversary is liis-ad­ vent Into an indifferent world as a Jinked, blind animal without devel­ oped seiises.and without a mind. “Is not April 80, the date of Washington’s inauguration as the first president of a new nation, more symbolical' of his life than Feb. 22? The birth of the United .States—each year it passes with­ out notice. The Declaration of In­ dependence was fine, but it did not assure the launching of the ship of state. Washington had much to do with^ the launching of that ship, end it is fitting that he should be remembered chiefly in connection therewith, Feb. 22, forsooth! We might as well celebrate the chop­ ping down of the cherry tree. “There are many men whose an­ niversaries might well fall on July 4. It was on that day that Thomas Jefferson signed the Declaration of Independence, which ho had drawn up. But since there are many who had a share in' that proceedingand in bringing that day to pass it is better that July 4 should remain a national anniversary and not the day of any one man, “ I submit a revised list of unai- versarie.-: “Benjamin Franklin, Nov*. 30, Oil that day in the year, 1T03 he signed the treaty of peace between American: colonies and England at Paris. “ Thomas Jefferson, April 28.
