on the 4th covered the territory from

with tho exception OF good reports
from the coast counties where cotton
Is improving, there seems to have
been a general deterioration In the

AMEHICl'S WHEAT SURPLUS.
Duluth Authority Figures That we have
lSo,000,000 Bus, 10 Spare.

Duluth, Mimi, Oct. l6-The
Commercial Record, which recently
estimated the total American wheat
crop at 793. $4,000 bus. undertakes
to forecast the distribution Of the
grain. 1t allows 440,973,000 bus for
domestic bread requirements and
1856, 800 bus for seed requirements,
making an aggregate Of 5l3.S59,5U0
bus for home consumption. Amounts
of surplus and deficiency, by regions,
are indicated as follows:
Surplus. Deficiency
Hard wheat states .......... o. $4,000
Soft wheat states. 80. ls.S4O,OOO .........
Southern states ... ...... lO,SlS.OOO
n. W. spring wheat states
and Iowa and Wisconsin l66,69o,0oo
North Atlantic states. $500. .......... 92,2o6,o00
Rocky Mountain states. l,24o0O0 ..........
Pacific Coast itates ....... 45,095,sO0 ..........
Totals. 3l26O5,sOO l33, lg9, 900
Net surplus .... .......... ls9,iI6,5o .........
The Commercial Record concludes
its article as follows:
at is undoubtedly a fact that no
such amount as lS9,060.000 bus will
60 for export. Stocks Of wheat and
-four in second hands are too low, and
farmers are too wealthy and well
posted, for US to think that an SOC
wheat price will work reserves, at the
end of the year, as low as the sl.lO
to sl.2O price did last year.
Right here is the crux Of the
wheat price for the ensuing year."
"At what price will the foreigner
take from US a l0O,0OO,OOO bus,
100, 100000 bus or 100000 bus
Of wheat and at what price can he get
these respective amounts from the
farmer"

M Z'oU y. III. Ndpt NOOQ OF the
Ct. Bend team and Six, the Lyons
Capt. tossed up coin for choice Of
goal OF kick off. Six the Lyons,
Capt. being the winner of the toss
selected the west goal. The game
was,called at 800 o'clock and was
witnessed by large crowd.
The first half resulted in a victory
for Lyons by score of 10. Both
teams did some poor playing. The
Lyons boys making not less than lC
false tackles, and some of their men
played off side continually, but as the
officials did not understand the game
they were not penalized, which was
responsible for Lyons score in the
first half. 1t being the first game for
the Great Bend boys the poor playing
was due to lackof experience. Everett
Strong .and Lewis Epstein Of the
Greati Bend team played great ball
during the first half.
The second half which resulted in
a score Of y to 0, was well played
game, which was slightly in Great
Bends favor. Our boys held them
for downs four times and downed
their opponents for a loss of from two
to five yards several times. Both
teams played clean ball and the de
Tense Of both teams was excellent
The interference Of both teams was
good also. Our boys played a grea
game during the last half. Everett
Strong was the star player at al
stages of the game.
The Lyons team will play a return
game on our grounds Saturday, Nov
4th. A good game CAN be expected
as both teams play fast ball.

BOYS AND GIRLS.
MANNERS FOR BOYS.

Poor fellows! How they get hec-
tored and scolded and snubbed, ana
how continual is the rubbing ana
polishing and drilling which every
member of the family feels at liberty
TO administer. No wonder their
opposition is aroused, and they begin
to feel that every mans hand Is
against them, when, after all, if they
only in a quiet way we're informed
what was expected of them, and their
manhness appealed to, they would
readily enough fall into line.
So thought Aunt Mary, as she wrote
out the following rules for a little
twelve-year- old nephew, who was
the flight of her eyes," if not always
the joy of her heart, for though
good natured, amiable boy in the
main, he would offend against the
"proprieties'' frequently:
Keep step with any you walk with.
Hat lifted in saying "Good-by" or
"How do you do?''
Hat lifted when offering seat in
car or in acknowledging a favor.
Always ask a lady whether you
may precede her in passing through
crowd or public place.
Let ladies pass through door first,
always standing aside for them.
a lad oil nntQEE
she asks you to precede her.
Look people straight in the face
when speaking or being spoken to.
In the parlor stand till every lady
in the room is seated, also older
people.
Rise if lady comes into the room
after you are seated, and stand till
she takes seat.
Hat off the moment you enter
street door, and when yon step into
private hall or Office.
Never play with knife, fork or
spoon.
Use your handkerchief unobtru-
sively always.
In the dining room take your seat
after ladies and elders.
Rise when ladies leave the room,
and stand till they are out.
Eat as fast or as slowly asl others,
| and finish the course when they do.
In passing out of room, let the
ladies pass first.
Do not look TOWARD bedroom door
when passing. Always knock at any
| private room door.
Special rules for the mouth are that
all noise in eating and srnacking of
the lips should be avoided.
