GREEEsBORo, Md Dec 10 The
farmers here have finished harvesting
their present corn crop, and now many
Of them are engaged In sbelling and
preparing it for market Prices current
are truly discouraging to them. Both
white and yellow corn are selling for
about 80 cents bushel In tho cities
while local buyers sre paying only 90 TO
20 cents as to quality. Now " the
farmer PAYS his lsboring man $40 q
month, which the ma jority Of them do,
and employees him for ten months--which
Is generally considered q working year
for that class OF persons-countlng his
board at So per month, Masking q total Of
$15, or $3.50 for tho time employed, It
will require six hundred bushels Of corn
at present prices to meet tie expenses Of
that one man.
A few farmers can afford TO keep their
grain In store and wait for chance for
utilizing It in different directions,
thereby gaining more profit from It than
by disposing Of IL at present prices, but
the most Of the farmers are compelled to
sell at ny price.

They are not the result OF careful land
independent consideration With men ia
politics they are usually but the appli-
cation OF party rsiudlee for or against
