The crops Of other countries bring
the total up to the enOurmOus figure
Of 3, 423. -04, 600 bushels. so that the
production Of the United States is
nearly 20 per cent OF the worlds out
put.
a graphical comparison OF this
crop with the finished product typi-
hed by bread and the intermediate
stage-1lOur-is very interesting. and
we have made an attempt to show
the magnitude Of the crop by means
Of wellknoWn objects such as the
Great Pyramid and the Washington
Monument.
II the 735, 26l. $40 bushels of wheat
were placed in hushel basket of
standard shape, the basket would
measure 1872 feet in diameter at the
bottom and 1.225 feet at the top, and
would be $50 feet high. 1t would
have to be strong enough to sustain
the weight Of 1873, 4:3}33 tons. The
Eiffel Tower is a good object for
comparison. Visitors in the crown
Of the tower would be able to Just
look over the sea of wheat. After
the nj ller has taken the basket of
wheat and miIled the grain he finds
he has some l6, ll6.U .U04 t,arIels Of
flour. which if put in one huge barrel
would be l,2l41a feet nigh, and the
largest diameter would be 96215
feet. Tie baker >n0W steps in, and
out Of this flour bakes 1, S34. 900, 200
loaves of bread of standard size: and
if this bread were all put into one
loaf. it would measure LOOP feet on
the bottom. 1887 feet at the top: it
would also be 6l615 feet thick and
some ,, 15S feet long. If this loaf Of
bread were set on end, the finished
product would far OvershadOW the
basket and the intermediate stage
the flour barrel.
The wheat would fill trench I4l
miles long-the distance from New
York to AIbany-and A 35 feet in cross
section. IN view of these facts, is it
any wonder that our transpo1 tation
facilities are strained to the break
ing point in carrying this enormous
~ valuable crop?
The wheat crop of the entire
world is far below the average this
year. and it is a much-mooted Ques-
ton whether we shall have any
wheat to spare to make up the
deficit abroad: and for this season
the price of one dollar bushel. It
seems probable that the United
States will be the arbiter Of prices
in the worlds wheat market for some
months to come American Scien-

NAIL ORDER MERCHANDI ISE.

MAIL ORDER MERCH ANDISE.
The state dairy and food DEPART
ment recently seized a carload of
groceries which was about to be dis
tributed by box car merchant to
the people Of Preston and other
towns in southern part Of the. state.
Many packages Of coffee and spices
we're confscated because they were
short weight, and some vinegar and
some syrup was also taken. The
seizure was made by Inspector ]. G.
Gowler. The agent of the company
was arrested. The department re-
ports that the goods seized were sold
by Chicago firm. The agent was
about to deliver the goods when the
inspector called at the car and after
investigating the weight of the
packages stopped the deliveries,
took possession Of the goods and ar
rested the agent.
The coffee was packed in Is and 25
pound drums. That is the weight
at which it is alleged they were sold.
but a test showed that every one Of
the 4S packages was short measure,
the shortage. varying from three
ounces to one pound and fourteen
ounces. The total weight should
have been 76O pounds, but was found
to be only 739 pounds and ounces.
The inspector also reported 40
packages of spices found to be under
weight. According to his report
there should have been l33 pounds
of spices, but as a matter Of fact they
weighed only l2la pounds, making g
a shortage of liz pounds.
The inspector also reports num-
ber of packages Of vinegar which he
found to be short in measure and a
number of pals Of syrup not properly
labeled. The syrup, it is claimed,
contained a greater percentage of
glucose than shown by the label. -.

KILL THE SUCKERS.
Says Government Expert A.
= C. Morgan

A. G. Morgan, government ex-
pert who was sent here to study to-
bacco with headquarters at Clarks-
vile, urges the farmers to destroy
the suckers after their tobacco has
been cut. He studied a field in which
the suckers were allowed to grow
and he found that these afforded an
excellent breeding and feeding place
for the worms and that at the ap-
proach of frost they went into the
ground. Later on when this ground
was spaded up they were found in
great numbers, which of course,
fOreshadow the crop of worms for
next season. The expert claims that
if these suckers are not allowed to
grow in this manner that the quanti-
ty of worms will be greatly lessened.
The plan of keeping the worms
killed out by spraying the tobacco
plants with paris green was also very
thoroughly investigated. Mr.. Nor
gan said that this afforded a tenn
porary relief but that he thought the
farmers should try to get at the root
of the trouble and by breaking up
the breeding of the worms perma-
nently rid their farmes of them.

Il has been estimated that the com
bustion of coal in London discharges
at least half million tons OF sulphur
ic acid into the air each year, and the
effect upon certain building stones Is
disastrous. The acid washed down
by rains attacks the lime of marbles.

ment for the decaying stoneYork is
the application Of solution of baryta,
which forms an insoluble sulphate
with the gypsum and liberates lime,
which. the carbnoic acid OF the air
converts into the original binding
cement Of the stone. Referring to an
experience at the Chapter house at

that carving so soft as to be brought

"The Great White Plague. Z"


Not since the world began has any
single cause of death taken so many
human lives as tuberculosis or con-
sumption. Year by year one-seventh
of those who die in most civilized
lands give up their lives to the great
white plague. The long roll of brave
men killed in battle on both sides in
the entire fouR years struggle be-
tween the states does not equal the
yearly harvest of men. women and
children taken off by consumption.
In view of these figures no more val
liable feature of the James town Ex-
position will be found than the
American Tuberculosis Exhibition
which is shown in the Social Econo-
my building under the auspices of
the National Association for the
study and prevention of tuberculosis.
This exhibit is interesting to all,
for all are interested. Any and every
home may be subject to the ravages
of this disease. 1t should be under
stood, also, that the exhibit is absO-
lutely free from any unpleasant
feature. 1t is not a medical muse
UNI, nor is it a collection ofhorrors.
The exhibit includes an interesting
collection of pictures showing the
conditions of life which make tuber-
culosis easily possible. Photographs
from Washington City and Virginia
account for the high death rate
among the colored races in America.
Rarely attractive pictures illustra
ting the out door life, which is es-
sential in the treatment of consump.
ton. and models of tents, buildings
and window tents make plain the
possibility of living out of doors
either at home or in SONS institution
especially equipped for the purpose,
Before reaching the exposition
100000 boys and girls, and 100000
adults had visited this exhibit in the
principal cities of Mexico, Canada
and the United States. Daily Stere-
opticon talks absolutely free from
any unpleasant feature are given at
8 p. M in the lecture hall of the So
cial Economy Building.
From jamestown this exhibition
goes to Louisville, Nashville. Atlanta
and Richmond.
