ever grown though not the largest i'll pro-
portion to the population of the country
there has been consumed and distributed up
to the Jst inst, or within about five months
from the riPening of the crop, l,20l 900, 900
bushels, or 90 per cent. OF the whole A
comparison for the last eight years shows this
to be smaller percentage than had been
consumed at the same date in any year ex-
cept 1856, but owing tU the magnitude of the
crop this relatively low percentage consti-
tuted the largest absolute quantity
ever consumed within the same five
months. The percentage remaining
ON hand on March l is always largest in the
south, notwithstanding the fact that the
period since the ripening OF the crop is long
est In that section. This, Mr.. j. r. Dodge,
statistician of the department of agriculture,
attributes to tue comparatively small re-
quirements for winter feeding, and to the
fact that larger proportion of the crop, be-
ing used for work animals, needs to be re-
served for the period Of spring blowing The
value OF the crop on the basis of present aver.
age farm prices would be as follows: Mer-
charitable corn, at S99 cents per busEel,

covered large number of letters, and among
them notes aggregating $500 in value. Two
of the notes were outlawed just three days
one for small amount and the other for
1923. The Others were pronounced good, and
amount to something over $400 The trunk
was addressed "Mrs. C. Merrilla, Corning

why 1t found the waG into the dusty limbo Of

Mrs. McAllister, whose maiden name was
Miss Ida Miley, married c. w. McAllister,
at Reading, Pa. He ran a collection bureau
there, got crowded, collected money for peo-

skipped away suddenly, leaving his wife and
creditors. The collection contained many
letters from McAllister in his absence, and
all breathed the greatest love for her Her
letters to hin, of which she preserved dupli-

her husband through ali his troubles, and
she was always wishing to be with
