From rage to Repre.en.atlve.

Congressman Scott has q most interesting
personal history. He is the son of q colonel
in the regular army, and was born ffty-four
years ago in Virginia. OF his early history
he himself knows but little, his parents dy-
ing not long after he was born. His life
may be said to have begun when, early in
his teens, he found himself page in the
House OF Representatives OF Washington.
Toward the close of the session Congress.
man Reed, of Erie, Pa. who had taken an
interest in the bright little fellow, asked
him to 60 home with him. Having nowhere
else to go, Scott complied, and was put to
work at salary OF $40 week tallying
freight Gu the wharyes of his employer, who
was, ut that time, the principal owner OF the
now almost vanished shipping of the great
lakes. The story of Mr.. SCOTS life from
this on is not greatly unlike that of other
successful men. He married we'll, becom-
ing brother-in-law to Frank ID. Tracy,
who was at one time very prominent on the
New York Stock Exchange and at the time
of his death President of the Chicago, Rock

whoa, Losing Favor with rarmer..

Reports on the condition and acreage of
Winter wheat in Ohio, Michigan, Indiana,
Illinois, Missouri, and Kansas indicate that
the area devoted to this crop is still decreas-
ing These six States produce the greater
part of the Winter wheat grown in the
United States, and ii is evident that farmers
are gradually abandoning wheat raising
whenever they can grow other crops to adj
vantage. In the Spring wheat region of the
Northwest it is not so easy to replace wheat
with other grain, but even there the ten
dency is to grow more fax and oats in pro-
portion to wheat. This change is the direct
result Of the continued low price of wheat,
in spite of small crop last season in the
United States and the warlike outlook In
Europe. Our exports of wheat are con.
stantly decreasing, and the stock in sight in
the United States grows more enormous
Indian wheat is offered in the English
markets ct prices below our figures, and
only great foreign war seems to promise
much improvement in the near future. In
der such circumstances farmers do well to
further decrease the acreage devoted to
wheat. The small crop this year has done
wonders in holding up the market, and IL
the production OF wheat in America should
become much smaller prices would certainly
improve. We should then need all our crop
Ut home, and the absence RI American
wheat in European markets LID cause q
,trong advance all around. -Clpstsnd CO.,
