Owing to the unsettled state of affairs
in eastern financial circles the wheat
market has been declining all through the
week. The foreign markets continue to
hold strong and the difference between
Liverpool and the Chicago markets is the
widest in many years. The situation in
the wheat market is simply this: There
is a shortage in the worlds crop of fully
4O0. 100000 bushels. Much of this is in for
eign countries. which means that every
bushels of American surplus will be
wanted abroad.
l think If it were not for the unsettled
state of affairs in the money market in
the east prices would now be ruling above
500 per bushel. instead of around 95c.
May wheat, Chicago market, ruled around
$1.OO per bushel, looks very attractive to
me, and 1 believe will sell much higher.
Concerning corn think every one will
agree with me that this years crop is a
least 25 per cent smaller than last year.
Government reports issued Oct. 10 make
this years crop AS, 0oo.o 900 bushels against
2901, 100000 bushels last year. For the in
formation of spectators and grain deal
ers I publish here below the range of
May and December wheat since 1873 or
for the last 81 years:

Rabies or Hydrophobia.

The editor of the Pensacola News
opens an editorial on the subject of
rabies, as follows: "There are some
people who contend that there is no
such disease as hydrophobia, while
others believe that no dog that is
we'll fed and cared for can develop it.
He then goes on to cite a case
which proves the contrary. We con-
dense it into as few words as possible.
Briefly wealthy man owned ken
mel of fine hunting dogs, settlers, and
was bitten by two of them, when he
attempted to separate them while
fighting. Investigations showed that
not only these two but a majority
of the others in the kennel were suf-
ferlng from hydrophobia.
This man had plenty of means, and
the kennel was his hobby, so that it
is certain that they had the best food
and care that money could provide
This proves conclusively that there
is no precaution which can be taken
which will ensure safety from this
dreadful disease.
If this is true, ought they to be
tolerated at large any more than a
rattlesnake or savage wild beast?
While good dog is very valuable
help on farm, yet it should be con-
trolled and not allowed. to run at
large. A dog at large unmuzzled
should be an outlaw, liable to be shot
at sight, except when accompanied
by its owner Which are of most
value to you, the lives of your chill
dren or your dog?

What Can One Grow on Ten Acres {?

The A griculturlSt is receiving a great

sections of the country, of which the
following is a sample:
Il want to find out about fruit and
truck growing in Florida. [ would like
to know what ONE ought to or can
do ON ten acres of average fruit and
truck land there. Can one make
living and grow a small orchard that
will in future years keep him from
want? II SO, where would you advise
him to locate, and what would be best
for him to plant? [ do NOT expect
anything big, but want something that,
with average intelligence and industry,
would give a comfortable livelihood. J"
AS THE climatic conditions are SO va
ried, and the profitable market crops are
SO different in the various sections of
Florida, MO general statement would do
Justice to all. Therefore, we ask ONE
or more persons in each county ito
write an article for the Agriculturist,
covering the above questions. Reader,
won't you do this? By SO doing you
will render a service to- thousands of
your fellowmen DESTROYS of coming
to this state, who are anxious for
such information; you will also help
your own section, and thus incidentally
benefit yourself. 'Put yourself in his
place." and give only reliable, TRUTH
full facts, and do lit today. Don't de

neglect it, but do it yourself.

City or Country.

We have frequently urged our
young people to stay on the farm.
Of course, it is not possible for every
one who is born and raised on farm
to remain there; if they did, the cities
would soon be depopulated. If it
were not for the infusion of fresh
country blood, the business enter
prlses of the cities would soon be
much less prosperous, for lack of ener-
getic young country blood to stimulate
and push them along. At the same time
we assert, without fear of successful
contradiction, that there is no life so
free from corroding care, so profitable
for mind and body as that of farmer.
Of course, there are some who are
not fitted by disposition for farmers
lite, in such a case it may be ad-
visable to try the city. But no one
should 60 there expecting that they

Perfect or Imperfect Blossoms on
Japanese Persimmons.

A correspondent writing from
Florida to the Florists Exchange,
states that some of his Japanese per-
simmons change their sexual charac-
ter as years pass by. He had one tree
that for six years bore male flowers;
then it had few female ones, and
from year to year thereafter it bore
increased numbers of female flowers.
becoming satisfactorily fertile. Such
cases are not uncommon among trees
and shrubs
Who among our readers have ever
watched the sex of the flowers on
Japanese persimmon trees? We must
acknowledge that we never have.
May not the fact observed bv this
grower account for some of the bar
rem perslmmon trees which have been
found in groves? It would be a good
plan for growers of Japanese persim-
mons to watch the bloom on their
trees and see if this is common
thing.
