The Indian corn crop for 1908,
amounted to 2,643, ,OoO, 900 bushels. The
crops of three years have exceeded
this, but only the crop of one year
19O6) exceeded 1t very much. The
value Of the crop is estimated at ST..
616,OOO,000. The price Of corn is ex.
ceptionally high. There are only two
years in which the farm price of this
crop was as high as 1t is for this year.
In 1881 the price was 63.6 cents: in
1901, when there was only two-thirds
of an ordinary crop, the price was
sos cents. The total value of this
crop is by far the highest ever reach
ed. The crop Of 1902 was worth a bill
lion dollars, and the crops of 1904
1905 and 1906 were worth slOO, 900 OOC
more; the great increase of $500. .OOO..
900 over the crop of 1902 was made in

Farm Mechanics.

Every farm should have work
shop. The building may be large or
small. 1t Is not necessary to have 1t
very expensive. The tools may be few
or many, but what there are should be
good. No man can do good work with
poor tools. and good tools cost but lit.
tie more than poor ones. A building

one corner. If this is fitted with a
good chimney, forge, anvil, hammer,
tongs and good steel wise, considerable
blacksmithing work can be done to ad.
vantage.
There should be a small stove to
make the shop comfortable in winter.
This is very important, because there
Is more time to work in a shop in the
winter, and you can't work with black.
smiths tools in frosty atmosphere.
Carpenters work is different. A
carpenters bench may be placed
against the side of the building and
covered with shed roof, for, If neces.
sary, carpenter work may be done out.
side If you have covered place for the
bench and tools.
A much better arrangement is to
have blacksmith shop in one end of
a larger building and carpenter shop
IN the other end, with partition be-
tween. There should be no shavings
lying about blacksmith shop; there
is too much danger from fire. For an.
other reason, the two kinds Of work
do not jibe well together. 1t Is com.
paratively easy to keep a blacksmith
shop In order but there Is a great deal
OF litter about woodworking shop,
and farmer never finds time to keep
such things neatly in order.
In buying woodworking tools the
best are the cheapest. 1t Is poor econ.
omy to buy cheap tools. Not many are
needed for common repair work, and a
good kit may be had for a few dollars.
Instruction books on mechanics may
help a good deal. The principles may
be studied out and applied in the
shop. The boys on the farm take up
such things easily and often make

Mirror and Farmer. A sick bird, or

Mirror and Farmer A sick bird, or
course, should always be removed, but
sometimes the farmer or poultryman Is
unaware that the fowl is sick until it
is too late to undo the harm it las
done by communicating the drinking
water. The best plan is to keep the
water as fresh and the drinking yes
sells as clean as 1t is possible to do. A
few drops of carbolic acid in the drink
Ing water will assist in keeping II
pure, but the acid should be used care
fully on account of its poisonous quail
ties. Washing the drinking fountains
or vessels daily will do more to keep
the water fresh and pure than any
thing else. When water is allowed to
stand, even If only for a few hours, on
throwing 1t out there will be the small
est accumulation of slime in the foun-
tain, and If they are rcfilled without
washing them, the coating increases
until the water, although freshly put
In, Is unfit for the fowls use. As the
warm weather advances there is more
necessity of watching the drinking yes,

Do you appreciate the force of that
declaration? Do you realize the power

Suppose:
Suppose you say to yourself: Il am

on saying that to yourself Say ii until
you begin to believe it. You know just
where that mental process will take
you. 1t will land you in bed You will
have suggested yourself into a real

There is a reason.
And because of that reason the prae:
tiee of suggestive therapeutics and
many other things finds place.
We have long been reminded of the
scientific truth that the mind influences
The body But we have been slow to

in which the mind may influence itself
Is by the way Of auto suggestion.
The mind can hypnotic itself
This possibility makes 1t tremen-
1ously important that we should be-
lieve and affirm and suggest to our
selves the best things In many cases
the affirmation makes the difference
between success and failure. happiness
and misery. health and disease.
OF course there are limitations to the
use OF this power of suggestion. and 1t
may be carried to the extreme Of ri
diculousness.
But
The potency Of 1t. the possibilities Of

studied and understood by every hu-
man being.
Note this:
Darwin tells us that at first the

To THE GUN CHEWING GIRL
BY EDWIN a. NYe.
Copyright. 1888. by Edwin A. Nye.

My dear young woman:
Do not get the habit.
want TO tell you that the evils OF
the gum chewing habit are clearly ex-
| planned by Or. John s Diamond OF
Bellevue college. New York, and he
| ought TO know.
He says. for instance:
That if YOU chew gum habitualiy you
unduly excite your salivary glands
You actually swallow some pints Of
saliva every day And II you chew
during the hours of digestion you neu-
tralize the acidity of the stomach.
Now, says the doctor, you delay dr.
gestion. which In itself Is bad thing.
and you run the risk Of microbes.
Besides.
DIR. Diamond says gum chewing Is
"a neurotic manifestation. That is TO
say. your nerves are tangled. out of
tune. You have developed sort of
jaw unrest. which is no trivial affair.
..Pishr' you say.
All this talk about stomach and
nerves does not touch you.
But say.
Do you know this: Gum chewing
persistently followed up will destroy
some of the beauty of your mouth and
chin and sooner or later put ugly lines
in your lower face? 1t is the honest
truth,
Now. think | see you sit up and pay
attention. That warning is worth
while.
1t stands to reason. The machinery
of the lower part of your countenance
was not made for perpetual chewing.
X is geare6 to work only when there
is the right kind of grist. overwork
and strain will rack the working parts
just as they de any other kind of ma-
ehiner.., even more so. because mus
cles and nerves aud blood vessels are
delicate.
Something also might be said about
your face Ia perpetual motion. You
run great risk In permitting yonr
best young man to see you under such
circumstances.
OF course where every one In your set
Is of like chewing disposition and ev
e,yboay chews and chews and chews,
Why. perhaps it is not well to be too
fnical.
But
lust remember will you please, about
the coming of those ugly lines and
creases about your mouth?
