THEY WILL EXCEED ONE BILLION" DOL LARS MORE THIS YEAR THAN DIKING THE RECENT YEARS OF DEPRESSION. Xfw York, Aug. 30. Farm proffts will be one billion dollars more this year in the United States than they have been during the recent years of depression At least this is the esti mate put forward by the American Agriculturist in its annual review of the harvests to be published in the forthcoming September issue of that magazine. On the basis of present prospects this authority estimates the com crop of 1891 at 2.000,000,000 busheis. wheat 500.000,000 bushels and oats 6ii.c00.000 bushels against . t.too.ooo.coo and 04.000.000 bush els respectively in 190 and 1.700.000 and 578,000.000 bushels as the aver age for the preceding eleven years' This makes the total prospective crop of corn, wheat and oats 3.112.000,000 k,,cvi. , .c o ,,. U ." v --i last year, and 14.7 per cent, over the average of the' preceding eleven years. The American Agriculturist be lieves:hat unless unexpected influen ces wholly change the current of events, the value of com on the farm will av erage in December fu'ly fifty cents a bushel, wheat $t per bushel and oats at least forty cents. On this basis the value of the corn crop will be $1,000, 000,000, wheat $500,000,000 and oats $150,000,000 or a total of $1,750,000, ceo. 'l"his is $450,000,000 more than the value of these crops in 1890, and $5;. 000.000 more than the value of the average of these crops from 1SS0 to 1590 mousive. Cotton and nee will command better prices than last season. Cattle are worth one-third more than eighteen months ago. with other live stock in proportion. Tobac co is advancing heavily for cigar leaf (contracts being made lor the crop in the field at an advance of fifteen to fifty percent, over last year.) Hops are firm at good prices, winter fruit will command large values and all vegeta bles are yielding fairly with every in dication of a remunerative market. The export outlook was never better, immenselv increased sums will be sent to the United States for our product Ulterior influences may of course interfere with this brilliant prospect, but we confess we are beginning to share more fully the hopes of certain well informed, but conservative agri culturists, who predict better profits for thejfarmers of the United States j during the next five years than ever before. The American Agriculturist says, "there will be no return to war prices, but the money received above expenses will go further and enable the farmer to get more value out of his profits than at anv previous per iod."

For a long time I was a (offerer from stomach, lirer, and kidney troubles, and harms, tried a variety of remedies, with' only temporary relief, I began, about three months ago, the use of Ayer's PiUs, and already my health is so much improved that I gladly testify to the superior merits of this cathartic."
