vested in Michigan, which are yielding 

 twelve to twenty-five bushels per acre, 

 most of them so perfect that it will 

 not be necessary to hand-pick them at 

 all to put them on the market as full 

 G. H. P. grade. Probably never in the 

 history of the bean industry has the 

 crop been so perfect and free fronl 

 faulty beans as those which are being 

 harvested at this time. Contrast this 

 condition with those which prevailed 

 last year, when the crop was so sorely 

 afflicted with anthracnose that it be- 

 came necessary to hand-pick from five 

 to ten pounds of beans from each 

 busher before they could be put on 

 the market as C. H. P. grade. It was 

 a big elevator in Michigan that last 

 year could turn out more than one car- 

 load of C. H. P. beans per week. This 

 year the most modestly equipped one 

 can turn out one or two cars of C. H. P. 

 grade per day, if the remainder of the 

 crop matures with the same degree of 

 perfection as those which are now com- 

 ing in. 



"Present prospects are for an ample 

 crop of beans for all legitimate require- 

 ments, and there is nothing at this time 

 in the situation to warrant the un- 

 reasonable, and unprecedented prices 

 which are now ruling. 



"It seems inevitable that the price of 

 beans must get down to a more rational 

 basis before they are taken hold of in 

 anything but a hand-to-mouth way. 



"The high prices of beans in this 

 country are attracting foreign beans 

 from all quarters of the globe, which 

 are now finding their way to our market. 



"It would appear not to be out of 

 place at this time to give the trade some 

 information on the improved condition 

 of beans in the last few weeks. They 

 should know it. This information will 

 prevent a great many now misinformed 

 jobbers from sustaining heavy losses in 

 taking on quantities of beans at the 

 present prices, with the belief that the 

 Michigan bean crop is a practical 

 failure. 



"Special inquiry into growing crop 

 conditions in Michigan will convince 

 you of crop prospects which are so much 

 better than is now generally assumed, 

 that the knowledge of this fact will be 

 of great value to most of the readers of 

 vour valuable columns."
