Holland Tells How Harvests Build American Wealth and Power
New York July 16 The article traces how the harvests of corn hay and cotton propelled vast money capital for the United States. It details how cotton exports and hay meant large foreign exchange credits enabling European gold imports via discounted bills. It notes bankers like Morgan and Stillman used harvest-driven export wealth to fund payments to Spain and to Paris for canal franks, with minimal market disruption. Estimations suggest this year’s hay and corn values could reach several hundred million dollars, while cotton prospects vary. The piece also touches on wealth of the late M C D Boarden and his American Printing Company legacy feeding university philanthropy.
