That our American forests abound in
plants which possess the most yalusbie
medicinal virtues is abundantly attested
by scores OF the most eminent medical
writers and teachers. Even the untu

ton, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have rich assortment OF most
valuable American medicinal roots.

NEW CORN CROP MARK.
Last Year'x Notwithstanding Yield
Is Passed.

Last years record-breaking corn crop
is shown by the November report to have
been distanced by 1T3,000.000 bushels.
The hay crop is shown to be S.000,Geo
tons short of last years and 6,OO0.VO
tons short of the average of the preceding
ten years. The oats crop was previously
shown to be 90.O0O.OO0 bushels short Of
that of 1905. 1t will thus be seen that
the gain in the corn crop has little
more than overbalanced the shortage both
in hay and oats, these making good all
shortages in feed crops.
The following table shows the corn
crops of the last six years and the proper
ton of each carried over from each OF
the five years preceding 1906:
