The history OF sport is made fas-
cinating by many strange incidents.
From the days when John Mytton
accepted a d&rc to hunt over frozen
fields in his ni-htclothcs at mid.
night up TO the last election the an.
mails of wagers are full of the most
extraordinary incidents.
No more curious examples of one
# these side issues of sport can be
found than is offered by a match
made when George ". was still
Prince Of Wales. The match was
a famous one in its day from its ex-
ceptional nature, the parties engag-
cd in it and the unexpected denoue-
mcnt. The Hon. George Hanger,
afterward Lord Coleraine, was one
Of the celebrated and eccentric per.
sonages Of the day. At one of the
gay parties at Carleton House Mr..
Hanger was led, in the course of the
conversation, 10 declare that a tur-

"The Blood is The Life.o

Science has never gone beyond the
above simple statement of scripture.
But It has illuminated that statement
and given it meaning ever broadening
with the increasing breadth OF knowi-
edge. When the blood is "bad " or inn
pure it is not alone the body which
suffers through disease. The brain is
also clouded, the mind and judgement
are effected, and many an evil deed or
impure thought may be directly traced
to the impurity Of the blood. Foul,
impure blood can be made pure by the
use OF DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis

PROFITS OF
FARMERS
This is the Vast Sum Which
u. S. Farm Products
Brought this Year

Washington, u. c.. Dec. 5-Such
a year as 1907 has been, with its
hard winter, summer weather in
March and late cold spring, gives
exceptional emphasis to the wisdom
of the agricultural department
policy of diversifying farm products
and of establishing new crops. A
general crop failure in a field as
large as the chief part of the tenn
perste zone of a continent must be a
rare occurrence.
No general crop failure affects
the farmer this year, not even with
in small areas. The production Of
the farms, all things considered. is
well up to the average of the pre-
vious five years in quantity while its
value to the farmer, wow appears
at this annual day of reckoning,
reaches a figure much above that of
1906 which by far exceeded any
previous years wealth production on
farms.
out of farming operations Of
1907 the railroads will get an av-
erage haul Of freight, and -oreign
countries will take heavy excess
above home consumption. The
farmer will have more TO invest
than ne ever had out of his years
work.
Wealth productions on farms in
1907, as expressed in value trans
cended the high record of 1906,
which was itself much above the
highest amount ever before reached.
In arriving al the total the farm
products of the year are estimated
In value for every detail presented
by the census and at that point in
production at which they acquire
commercial value.
The grand total for the year OF
1907 is $7,412,000,O00 This is
S657 900 900 above the value of 1905
$1,103, 100000 above that of 1905,
$1,263.00 900 above that of 1904,
$1,494. 100000 above that of 1903
and $2.695, 100000 above the census
amount of 1899.
The value of the farm products for
1907 was 10 per cent greater than
that of 1906. II per cent over 1905.
20 per cent over 1904, % per cent
over 1908, and 81 per cent over
1899.
During the last nine years wealth
estimated as above explained was
created on farms to the fabulous
amount of $4,000, ,00O,0 900.
Four-fifths of the worlds pro
ductlon of corn, as nearly as can be
determined, grows in the United

kon, Fred Gerhardt of Fairbanks,
who has recently sent TO the eXposi-

orable mention.
Indeed ii is doubtful IL Pacific

tage of being three thousand miles

of rutabages, 5000 heads of celery,

ishes, tomatoes, parsley, mushrooms

Gerhardt will make some six to
eight thousand dollars clear off his
three acres, and there are many
Alaskan miners who have not done
so well the past season. The Alas

PRIVATE LIFE OF
GOV. GEORGE
CURRY
The Big Job In New Mexico
Was Not Secured Through
Any Pull.

A special correspondent of tie st.
Louis Globe-Democrat says of the
private life OF George Curry, govern
or of New Mexico:
If the real truth was known, GOV.
George Curry came to Washington
the other day in a towering rage.
When he went home this past week
ne was meek as a lamb. 1t was all
because he got what he came here

nor of New Mexico ever since the

career in the Philippine Islands. He
has proven to be the most popular
and, measured by general results
and the satisfaction of the people of
the territory the most successful
governor the territory has had.

He got all he came for and some
more. He was piqued and angered

ducts OF corn fed animals.
Corn is the chief OF crops and ex-
ceeds every other prominent agri-
cultural factor of national prosper
ity. 1t is a human food and more
especially a live stock feed, with
great motive powers in the food of
an energetic age. The starch of
corn becomes the fat of the hog and
the Finish" OF the steer. No meat
products are 50 much I'm demand in
international trade and animal fats
and oils. The value of those is
more than one-half of the value of
all exports Of meat animals and
packing-hOuse products from this
country. The harvest secured this
year is 2,553,752,000 bushels. Its
value is $3.50, 100000. Four crops
before was one billion value.
The computed value of the hay
crop of 51.420,000 tons is $65,0O0,-
00OO.
If the cotton crop does not this
year eventually occupy second place
In Vliue instea Of hay in the final
estimates OF The department. IL seed
be excluded. il certainly has third
place. without seed. The farm value
of the 1907 crop Of cotton and its
eed is estimated to be from $780,
100000 to S675, 100000. The com
mercial expectations are that the
crop will be found to be the third in
size ever raised, and percept bly,
larger than the average crop of the
previous five years. Its farm value
is probably a little below that of last
years crop. Otherwise 1t will be the
most valuable cotton crop ever rails
ed I'm thlas country and per cent
above the average value of the crops
fthe previous five years.
This year was trying one to cot
ton from planting time to nearly the
end of summer, but even under ad-
verse conditions a crop has been
produced that will be sufficient, with
the surplus of last year to meet the
requirements of spinners until the
next harvest.
The fears of cotton famine that
followed the low production of this
country in 1901 have not been justi-
fled, and in the meantime efforts to
make European spinners partly in
dependent of the upland cotton of
the south by aiding the growing of
colonial" cotton have not made
themselves felt.
Outside of the British East In
dies, the production of cotton in the
British colonies, possessions, and
protectorates was 1853 bales of o.
900 pounds gross weight in 1904 and
10,015 in 1905. In the French
Indo-China 400 bales were pro-
duced in 1904; the German colonies,
1000 bales in 1905.
Among the strong points of ad-
vantage possessed by this country's
cotton is the low cost of transporta-
tion to market. Recent investiga-
tions by the department indicate
that the average cost of transporting
cotton per 100 pounds from farm
to local shipping point is about 10
cents; from local shipping poirt to
seaport, about 40 cents and from
seaport to the United Kingdom,
about 32 cents; the total being only
So cents per hundred pounds, or less
than cent a pound.

that interests about all the baseball
enthusiasts In that section OF Long
Island, and the grand stand was
packed. On the outfleld and about
the diamond as near as they were
permitted the crowd filed the field.
Mr.. and Mrs. Horther are preparing
for a trip to Europe with their family.
Mr.. Horther having recently sold his
business. Stabb Is former employee
1t Is said he has made many efforts to
win the hand of pretty nineteen-year-
old Miss Horther, who refused TO even
consider him.
Recently a friend OF Mrs. Horther
Informed her that Stabb had made
remarks about his alleged friendship
with her daughter. Miss Horther is an
athletic young woman, who holds her
head very high and who glories I'm her
health and strength. The mother went
at once to her daughter with the story
and repeated what she had been in
formed Stabb had said.
THAT creature talked about mew
she exclaimed. "If I were n man I'd
teach him better manners, the curr'
Then Mrs. Horther told her husband
who wanted TO do what his daughter
had suggested she would do IL she
were a man, but the daughter restrain
ed him. She declared she was perfect
ly able and ready TO handle any man
that talked about her.
When all Mineola was at the ball
game and about half the people from
the surrounding town were there she
started in search of Stabb.
She put whip under her long white
coat and went TO the bail game. Lean
ing against his bicycle, talking to n
party Of friends, was Stabb.
III tench you TO talk about women"
Miss Horther declared. Then she
swung the whip across his face. The
commotion on the lines attracted the
attention OF the crowd and the ball
players.
It does not take long for an athletic
young woman 90 swing n whip dozen
times, and Miss Horther swung it with
nll her might, while Stabb tried TO COW
ir his face. The whip cut his hands,
wound itself about the back Of his
neck and made welts wherever it
landed
The punishment seemed TO be n pop
hlar one with the crowd. The great
majority knew the young woman, and
some evidently knew what was the
cause Of the action. Finally, when
every one understood that n girl was
horsewhipping n man, the crowd I'm the
grand stand cheered wildly.
After it was over Miss Horther said
she was glad she had whipped Stabb,
rs It seemed the only way she could
aveuge the remarks he had made
about her. She said she hoped that
every other girl would follow her
course and that then some OF the
young men I'm Mneola might change
the trend OF their conversations.
