The showing this year, as com
pared with last year is, however
more catering than the bare figure,
indicate. This year. according ts
the government report, the acreage
of winter wheat harvested is about
5000, 900 less than in 1908. Fol
this decreased acreage there is a
falling of of less than 40, Zoo, 900
bushels which demonstrates that the
results per acre ara much better
than last year. Moreover, these
1000. 900 acres have not gone to
waste; practically all of this area
has been given up to othes crops
which must be figured idto any COM
parison of the two years when it
comes to making up the farmers
ledger, and drawing conclusions as
to the bases for a further continu-
ance Of the present season of IN
parallsled national prosperity.
But, since the above statistics
were compiled and published there
have been reports of further dam
age to wheat in Kansas through
rains and foods, in Nebraska from
blight and rust, and in the Red
river valley in Minnesota from rains
and wind storms, from which fac
.ors it has been predicted thai the
aggregate yisld vsuld fall some
,0, 900, 900 or $4,000, 900 bushels
,efors the above estimates. Euro
'san crops, too, are short and in
Jew the curtailment of the Ameri-
an surplus for export and war con-
litions in the orient, there seems to
e 4 good foundation for a belief in
Ugh prices to prevail throughout
be season or at least until the ,
outhsrn hemisphere crops are ,
card from. >
In the Uniteo States, taking into I
ccount all adverse conditions since
e government crop resort of July .
on which the above figures were I,
lsed, there is little prospect that r
. aggregate yield will fall below .,
70 900, 900 bushels, which, while P
owing considerable decrease :
om 1908, 1902 and 1901, will still
away ahead the lean years of Of
50, 1894, 1895 and 1896, and GO 60

About SanatiVe AntiSep-

And about the Care of the Skin.
Scalp, Hair and Hands

Too much stress cannot be placed on
the great value Of Cuticura Soap, Oint-
ment and Resolvent in the antiseptic
cleansing of the mucous surfaces, and
of the blood and circulating fluids, thus
affording pure, sweet and economical
local and constitutional treatment for
weakening alterations, infiammations,
itchings, irritations, relaxations, dis
placements, pains and irregularities Pc
culiar to females. Hence the Cuticura
remedies have a wonderful influence in
restoring health, strength and beauty
to weary women, who have been pre-
maturely aged and invaded by these
distressing ailments, as well as such
sympathetic affections as anemia, chic
rosis, hysteria and nervousness.
Women from the very first have fully
appreciated the purity and sweetness,
the power to afford immediate relief,
the certainty Of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy which have made the Cuticnra
remedies the standard humour remedies
of the civilized world.
Millions of women use Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre-
serving, purifying and identifying the
skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts,
scales and dandruff, and the stopping of
falling hair, for softening, whitening
and soothing red, rough and sore hands,
for annoying irritations and lucrative
weaknesses, and for many sanative, an-
tiseptic purposes which readily suggest
themselves, as well as for all the pur-
poses of the toilet, bath and nursery.
