tain live stock to the value of over
$1 10000 and crops unsold and un-
consumed to tho value of nearly
S0OO,OOO, tho entire agricultural in

not far short of $17,OOO,OOO. The
agricultural interests affected in
Missouri represent total capital of

about 100000 acres, worth about
S7,25O,OO0, the live stock represent

the crops on hand another half

Ionnessee is not far behind Mis-
s9uri in tho extent of it's imperillcd
interests, the number and acreage of
the submerged farms being very
nearly the samo. The entire value,
including S1,25O,O00 for live stock
and 100000 for crops on hand: is
over $S,5O0,0OO.
What effect the flood will have
upon the crops of tho present season
tepends upon the length of its con-
l;nuance and the practicability of
'hoat planting after the subsistence
Of the flood. Tho entire region under
water April 6, produced last year
about 100000 bales of cotton, valued
1t close on Sl3,000,000; ovcr II ,OO0-
100 bushels of corn, worth about 49,
100000, and wheat, potatoes aud hay
worth over $S0O,000 more. Tho
most valuable portion of these crops
was raised in Mississippi, whose
region now submerged produced
nearly quarter of million bales of
cotton, besides other products mostly
for local consumption.
The counties wholly or partially sub
merged are among the largest cotton
producing counties in the United
States. Yazoo county, which alone
has produced over $4,000 bales in Il
season, is one-half undof water,
while Bolivar, Coahoma, Issaquena
and other famous counties are part
tally submerged. The weather bu-
rea predicts further extension of tho
flooded area, but no attempt. of
course, has been made to estimate the
serious possibilities of such extension.
The weather bureau publishes map
Of the country flooded on April 1, and
says: "The food water now in Mis-
sissippi is just beginning :''t.t
the Mississippi river through the
Yazoo at point just north of Vicks-
burg. 1t is expected that this flood
will pass into the Mississippi between
tho mouth of tho Yazoo and Mill
ken's Landing; Il few miles to the
north. Tho gradually increasing
strain expected during tho next few
days on the Louisians side opposite
the place where the Yazoo floods re-
turn to the Mississippi renders it
possible that tho levccs may break
and tho flood pour through, and
northeastern Louisiana, formerly
covered by foods will be flooded
again this year. Heroic work is now
being done on the levees of northern
Louisiana, and it is hoped that thoy
will be held intact"

did not hesitate to demand my obedi-

before Mary, and explained that her
mother had always carved; no one
knew so well as she how to select the
choicest bits and give to each one just
the dainty morsel most coveted, and
now Mary must learn to do the same.
She took the large knife in her hand

then she stuck the fork well into the
turkeys breast and made another at

She looked at her father moment,

me again and put her hand on my arm
