CONDITION OF THE CEREALS.
Wheat wiz show a Diminished Yield
Promises of Big Corn Crop.

urn SfoP
Wheat has remained firm at sl.0i
during the past week. Reports from
the West are to the effect that the re-
cent frosts and snow storms did large
damage TO groFing crops and that the
HessIan fly, cinch bugs and other in
sects are numerous IN some localities,
and drouths and excessive moisture IN
others have done considerable injury.
The only hope now for an excessive
crop Is a large acreage and no one can
determine the SIZE OF that increase. The
former estimate of 500 200, 900 bushels
for the product of 1891 has been re-
duced To 100 600. 900 bushels by those
who have made the subject a special
study. Corn declined slightly during
the past week owing to the favorable
prospects for q bounlful crop. The re-
cent rams have dispelled the drouth
scare, and the only thing that can keep
the market from taking further de-
cline will BE- an equal demand for the
daily receipts In the West.

A Paraimonioua Prince.

The Prince de Joinville is said to be
tae most parsimonious man in Euro pc
He is enormously rich and is quite as
mean as he is rich. He has a splendid
mansion in Paris, and occasionally he
runs into town to give his personal at
tention to business matters; at such
times he will not have the fires in the
Kitchen lighted, because that would in
volve too much expense; whenever he
gets hungry he sends his servant around
the corner for bowl of soup, bit of
meat and crust of bread. His parsi-
mony is proverbial; even the gamins
chaff the old man about it, as he totters
along the streets. This curious old
miser has nephew who is almost as
penurious as he; this is the Comte de
Paris, the gentleman who is now being
feted in the United States. The Comte
de Paris is enormously rich, and so is
his wife, and yet they can make penny
go further than the most prudent Yam
kee housewife. Chicago News

AN EXCELLENT BROODER.

Sketch of One That Has Boon Used u

brooder box has an open bottom but
the cover fits tight, the top having two
or three inches air space over the tank
should the top be level. The water
tank Zig. y is made of galvan'
lied iron, l inch deep and 12X54 inches
The stand-pipe is 8 inches long, made
large enough to insert the neck OF a
quart bottle in the top. Any house
lamp can be used, the top of the
chimney being half an inch from the
underside of the tank. The tank is
covered with cloth or bagging, sewed
on close and tight. The mother is

paper or tarred felt, with wooden, cut
in strips, tackled on the edge, and when

lower than the underside of the tank,
and lower the platform half an inch

The illustration shows double
brooder, with tight partitions in the
middle, and with openings for the
chicks on the opposite sides. The chicks
in each brooder have separate runs. To
set the brooder, have the end over the

lowest from the top of the lamp, but
half an inch is better, and the water

THE SLEEPING DEMON.
The Awful Consequences of DatIying wit
the Tempter.

The Awful Consequences of Dailying with
the Tempter.
The following incident is full of les
sons for reformed men. 1t comes direct
from leader in Gospel Temperance
work:
A good-hearted man who was under
the power of drink reformed and re-
manned steadfast for nine years, amass-
ing fifty thousand dollars in money, be-
coming director in an important Tenn
perance institution, and being instru-
mental in saving one hundred and
sixty-three men who had fallen. At the
end of nine years he felt altogether
safe, became proud of his success, did
not like to have any one know he was u
reformed man, and ceased to attend and
work in the Temperance meetings. A
saloon-keeper got hold of him and
offered to wager ten dollars that this
reformed man of nine years standing
could not walk around the block with a
teaspoonful of whisky in his mouth. In
the weakness of his pride, the poor tel.
low accepted the wager, swallowed the
whisky, his appetite was tiercely
aroused, he began to drink, and six
years after this diabolical temptation
he died drunkard Let him that
standeth take heed lest he fall" and let
him remember that to work in Christs
name for others is the sureSt way of
being saved himself.-National w. c. II.
