catch the dollars OF the farmer.
The operations of the stock ex-
change are all based on the condl-

door OF the Exchange into a pande-
monium. Year by year the eyes OF the

earth, figuratively speaking, and the
keenest minds Of the metropolis are
specializing as 20 what success the
farmer is going 20 have with his crops.
The results OF that speculation involve
millions OF dollars. All the country
