Of Interest
To Farmers
THE CORN CROP.

THE CORN CROfs
It is probable that throughout the
West this winter, thousands Of bushels
of corn will be used as fuel, and SO
long as the price in the producers
country remains in the vicinity of ten
cents, it is certainly cheaper fuel than
coal. The Government crop reports
gives 2, ,211 GOO, 900 bushels, an increase
of $4,000, 600 bushels over last year,
but this increase ought to be more than
offset by the increased demand resulting
from the foreign wheat failures. The
greatest factory in keeping down the
price of corn, is the scarcity OF live
stock for feeding purpose, a condition
from which there is no escape. The
next best thing however, is to give the
stock on hand the best possible care,
and all the feed they will take with
proat-agood policy in other years as
well ashis.

Just before Christmas all the old toys
Of the children of the German Emperor
and Empress are mended and sent to
various poor children and to the chill
dren's hospitals. Nothing is ever,
wasted in the imperial household, and
the children are not allowed to be ex-

they have fewer playthiugs that most

What blessing 1t would be to ha-
manity if. women would take more
pains to become acquainted with tbs
proper food necessary for the physical
requirements of their families and the
right method or cooking the food. says
another notable woman.
That cooking il an art will not be
acknowlt dyed until women realize
that, to be a good cook, means more
than merely to be able to prepare few
palatable dishes and dainty tidbits;
that it takes years of study and pr rac-
tice to understand the culinary art
theoretically aud practically is as yet
scarcely apprehendsd. Great results
would be achieved if women would pay
as much attention to the education of
their daughters in domestic affairs as
they do in more ornamental directions.
Very often they spend large sums of
money in having their daughters ed
ueated in professions for which they
have neither inclination nor talent.
Thus they spend time and money fool
ishly which could be- used to better
advantage in teaching them what is
necessary for their welfare and hsppi-
ness.
Nearly every girl hopes to marry
some day and have her own home. But

s.The Baltimore Herald'' tells good
story of Bishop Parret (Episcopal), of
that city. Some time ago he was the
guest of an Episcopal family in West
Virginia. Learning from the Bishop
that he liked hard-boiled eggs for
breakfast, his hostess went to the
kitchen to boil them herself. While
so engaged she began to sing the irst
staBza of the hymn ''Rock of Ages.
Then she sang the second stanza, the
Bishop, who was in the dining room,
joining in. When it was finished there
was silence, and the Bishop remarked:
'tWhy not sing the third yersePn

as the came into the dining room carry

Parret.
