There is little girl in Baltimore who
goes out into the streets, begins crying and
gets the police to try to find her home. She
gives an accurate description of house,
but when such one is reached she always
declares It is not the right one. The other
day she kept three policemen busy all day
walking about the city with her, and al
night admitted that she knew all the while
where her home was, and could have gone
to It. at any hour.

himself as a Faith Curer,

The Products Pstained on the Farm

The value of crop does not depend en-
tirely on the market price, but partly upol
he uses TO which the crop Is applied. A
corn crop If sent TO market, may bring bu
little more than the cost of its production
out it is equivalent to certain amount OF
raw material. which can be converted int,
some other product more in demand, sucl
as beef, mutton, milk, pork or poultry.
Nor can the real value of the crop be esIi
mated by the amount received for th,
meats sold, as large portion oil the crop l.
