Grasshopper raids yield resilient Missouri crops say Times

A New York Times correspondent in Cameron Missouri reports that three weeks after grasshopper damage, soils show remarkable vitality. Replanting has largely succeeded, with small grains near half to three fourths crop potential and corn possibly full yield if weather holds. Rain has helped crops with little rail disruption, and fears of renewed swarms fade.

Glorification of past virtue amid present decline debated

The article critiques how society glorifies earlier ages while lamenting current moral and political decay. It cites Solomonic cautions, Roman cynicism, and contemporary sermons, then presents Dun and Co. as a counterpoint showing modest business failures and overall trade resilience in the first half of the year, with figures on failures and liabilities.

World grows better not worse says critics on religion

The author challenges claims that Christianity and preaching decline morality.

The piece laments perpetual doom but maintains progress and sane skepticism.

Economic outlook amid post panic recovery and policy notes

The analysis argues that U S business activity has contracted overall with declines in prices and output, yet reports from fifty locations show pockets of encouragement. It credits limited internal indebtedness for fewer failures and suggests a gradual revival aided by agricultural strength, restored purchasing power, and replenishment of inventories, while urging prudence and patience.
