PROFANITY In BOYS

1t is regrettable fact that profanity has
become common among the boys. It is
not in the least out of the ordinary, where
group of boys Of to l5 years are to-
gether upon the streets or on lot to play
game Of ball, to hear them using oaths
that might suit the tongues of the prover.
bial fshwife or sailor, but which are
shocking falling from the tongues of chill.
dren Of tender years. OF all stupid and
silly vices, profanity is one of the worst
and most abominable. A simple state
ment OF TACT is much stronger than any
statement embellished with swear words,
aRd no lie is made any the more believe
able by being framed in profanity. In
fact, both truth and falsehood are weak.
ened by swearing and taking the Lords
name in vain. Foul epithets and CON-
parisons are not convincing but are almost
invariably disgusting, except to those
making use of them. Profanity among
men seems to be growing less and less, at
least in public places and among those
who may lay claim to decency and some
education. But the habit seems to have
fixed itself upon great many of the
boys, who may imagine it mannish to use
profanity and smoke cigarettes.

81 the Winter wheat crop, theamalI crops
around last year, the probable los Of 4, :
O0O, 600 bushels In the Argentina crop
and The increase Of our own consumption
Of wheat BY at least SO. .OOO, 900 bushels
over last year, In the irst nine months Of
the current year.
An open winter Is III for wheat. The
absence of snow opens the way to FROST
killing. Rain and freezing injure the
roots. The plant does not "tiller and it
Is on many stems starting from single
root shat large crop depends Nearly q
tenth Of the area seeded last Fall will beaF
nothing. The winter wheat crop can
scarcely avoid an injury Of from 4o,0OO,-
COO to 60 OOO, 600 bushels.
The European crop was short last year.
Estimates vary, but the increased demand
for wheat from abroad probably reaches
s0,OOO, 600 bushels and may be 100,
600 bushels before harvest. Bad times
have, however decreased consumption in
Europe and the increase in imports
needed to make good poor crops cannot
vet be clearly. ktosn Argentina was
expected to make goud and its crop is
short.
In this coubtr,, however. consumption
has. increased. Western wheat receipts
are 46. .O00, 900 bushels over last year to
April |. Exports are 2S,oOO,OOO bushels
less. Reserves have Only increased IL

The per capita consumption varies in
this country by thrse bushels between

bushels per capita. Ia 1901 the eon=
sumption was fogr bushels. This makes
a difference in the years consumption of
24O, 600 900 bushels.
Consumption has in The past siK months
undoubtedly risen in this country. Fer
Tie whole crop year tlIis is probably an
increase Of 81, 900, 600 bushels in demand.
