Nor does this variation occur only by
reason of differences in the product here
by which values might be equalized, as
when large yield at a low price might
be as valuable as small yield at high
foreign product to a large extent, and
in this case it is apparent the American
hop grower might. perhaps, have dis
astrous season as regards growth and at
the same time very low price because
of large foreign crop; but he may also
have a large yield at the time of high
price because of failure of the crop
abroad. Thus it is seen there is very
large element of uncertainty in this bus
mess OF hop growing, which gives to it
something of the nature and excitement
of lottery in which there are no posi-.
tive blanks and some very profitable
prizes.
The cost of growing hops is chiefly in
the planting Of the yard and the fur
nishing of the poles. The sets from
which the plants are grown are runners
from old roots and are planted eight
feet apart. The hop is diecious, that
is, having staminate flowers and pistil-
late hoWers upon separate plants; and
for the fertilization of the latter one
plant of the former kind is required to
every sixty-three of the latter, or one to
square of eight hills each way. The
vines require short stakes the first year,
one being set to each hill, and the Weld
is from 200 to 400 pounds. In the fall
the roots are covered with coarse
manure, both for protection and for
fertilizing. Proper cultivation of the
soil is required, as for corn crop. The
total cost of setting out and furnishing a
yard is about $3.50 per acre. Much Of
the largest part of the cost is in pro-
viding the stakes. The usual yield in a
fair year is about 700 pounds per acre;
1920 is an unusually good Weld, and
those growers who reach these figures
this year-if any do-with hops at fifty
cents viii be very fortunate. -Henre

How THE DocToR LAap FOR HIM.-The late
DR. c., of Ashtabula, used i'll the early days
to take long rides through the wilds of Ohio.
One day he stopped at an old-fashioned tav-
ern and called for dinner. Among the hsme-
spun dainties was a glass of whisky besid his
plate, which he did not trouble. After din
ner, when naying his bill, the landlord said
"Twenty-five cents for whisky" Which
did not touch, and never do" said the doc
tor. "Well, it was there, and you could have
had it," replied the landlord, The doctor
said no more, paid his bill and left. Calling
again not long after, it was noticed that the
doctor, upon sitting down to dine, placed his
medicine case upon the table. However,
nothing was said at the time. When he went
to pay his bill he brought in one dollar for
medicine and advice. 'But l have had no
medicine" said mine host. "Very WE'LL
replied the doctor, sit was on the table, and
you could have had it; and also gave you good
advice all the while I was at table" The
nonplussed host squared accounts.-Detroi1

Hops.

The culture of hops is one of those
special branches of agriculture which
requires for It's success much skill in its
practice, and persistent adherence
through bad years as well as good /;
through low prices, losses BY insect raw
ages, damage by diseases, and by patient
resistance to that intense desire for
change which is the especial bane of the
hop-grower. For skill can only be
gained by much and long observation
and experience, and the impatient hop
grower, reduced to unnecessary despair
by few years of trouble from blight,
mildew, lice and grubs, and who in a
petulent mood plows up his yards, often
finds, to his more intense disgust the
next year, when he has no hops, that
they are selling at such prices as would
have well recompensed him for all his
past losses, paid him we'll for his pres
ent labors, and have left him comfort
able balance to go against future mis-
fortune. How this want of confidence
and impatience of disappointment affects
this business is shown by the decrease
of it in Wisconsin, where, ten years ago,
100000 pounds of hops were produced,
but after two or three years OF partial
failure the more exuberant, but less pa
tient, Western farmer plowed up his
plantations, made firewood of his poles,
and went to growing wheat to such an
extent as to reduce the product precisely
one-half; and yet the soil and climate Of
Wisconsin are well adapted for this
growth.
The variations in the price of hops are
very great, as may be seen by the fol-
lowing table for the past eighteen years

A Sail and What Came Of II.

y party of young men, composed of
tailor, a draper, Il clerk, and a barber, not
withstanding the chilly condition of the

a sail ON the Elk. The commissary went
busily To work, and soon had a full list of
stores on board We enumerate: One key
lager beer, 81, lbs. pork steak, one gallon
oysters, half gallon whisky. two ducks, six
loaveS bread, two bottles catchup, one bot
tle baking powder, corn meal, -four, etc.
Whether OF not these stores were laid in
with view TO Il trip to the mouth of the
Lena in search of the crew of the Jeanette,
we are not informed. One of the party says
they We're bound for the Sandy Point gum

The breeze was fresh and the skitf went

they concluded to go ashore. The stores
We're removed TO the cabin, a rouSing fire

were rolling round also. They managed,
however, to get under way, the draper and

increased and the craft careened more aud
