AT the right Of each captain place n
clothes bastnet or hamper full OF all

GREAT. BouNrIFUL WISCONSIN.

This has been a golden year for the
farmers of Wisconsin. Never 10 the
history I, the state have cIops been bet
ter or prices higher. According to the
annual report issued By the state board
of agriculture The yield OF ali the lead
ing crops has been enormous, ranging
from 81 to 81 points out Of 100. which
represents the highest supposible yield.
The corn crop" the report says, is
the best for years, the crop being we'll
matured even in those parts OF the
state where it has not been considered
safe to cultivate 1t. "
The only discordsnt note in the re-
port is that potatoes were somewhat in
j1red By frost. the l)ss probably being
one.third ia an exceptionally large crop.
which still remains larger than that of
last year and is of better quality.
The tobacco crop runs about 1850
pounds to the acre and brings on an
average of 10 cents pound. Many
growers have got Is cents and some even
more. Perhaps a maj IrIty Of the tobac-
CO raisers will get $500 an acre for their
crop.

How TO Care For Tired Feet.

People who suffer from tired feet
may note that a good deal of their dis
comfort is caused by the fact that they
wear stockings that do not fit. In
deed, the fit of stockings is almost as
important as that of shoes. says Lon
don Lancet. They should have as few
seams as possible, as these cause
corns. The feet should be bathed at
night, and this treatment is an ex-
cellent sleep producer. The water
should be salted. The feet should be
scrubbed all over with nailbrush,
which will often prevent the formation
of corns, while hard spots on the soles
may be reduced with a piece of fine
emery paper or pumice stone before
the feet are placed in water
