Only a Few Years Ago Every Rural

To-Day the Upright Piano Is In
stalled in the Place of the
Joy Of the Family.

Thirty years ago home wasn't happy
unless 1t had its cabinet organ in the
parlor, so that the daughter of the
house could entertain the visitors ev-
cry Sunday afternoon by chording a
little after she had been sufficiently
coaxed. The organ was always a beau
tiful thing-very beautiful. A real
beveled edge mirror was set in the
ton so that daughter could look upon
herself as she industriously pumped
with both feet and chorded with both
hands. 1t was great exercise playing
the organ in those days.
All organs were decorated alike. On
one side was a picture of mothers IA
Their and mother; on the other side
were fathers parents. Cousin Harry,
who was doing so we'll in Denver,
beamed out from one side of the Chi
nese lily that Aunt Molly brought back
from the city on her last trip there,
while on the other side Of the lily,
looking down severely upon the wax
fruit in its glass case, was Prof. OAR
win, who used to be principal of the
high school.

organ used to cost $780, Now you
can, buy an ordinary piano for that
amount, while a new organ goes for
s35-a dollar down and so cents a
week. A secondhand organ sells for
from $40 to $25.
The farmers that used to own Or
gans are now buying pianos. Some Of
them are buying player pianos. Books
have been written for the farmers
daughters that teach them to play a
piano almost as we'll as If they were
taught by an expensive teacher. By
the diagram method they learn where
to put their fingers when they see GER
tain notes, and many farmers homes
have daughters who have taught them
selves to play almost as we'll as If
they had employed teacher.
ut was the coming of the upright
piano that put the organs down and
out" said a piano dealer recently
"The old square piano couldn't be sold
for less than $500. The upright was
easier to handle and easier to put to-
gether, and 1t sold at first for about
$500. Twenty-Five years ago only the
rich-the class that buys motor cars
now-owned pianos. The medium class
owned organs. Now only the poorer
people buy organs. Pianos are being
improved rapidly. I think that in ten
years all pianos will be. made with
player attachments"
The musical taste of the people is
improving right along. Many organs
are still being sold Every family
must have some sort of musical in
strument in the home and the man
ayers of music stores testify that the
music that is being bought is of the
higher class. Just as much popular
music is being sold as ever, but the
demand for high class music has de-
veloped rapidly in the last ten years.

In 1907, the United States produced

1t produced 664 100000, and in 1909
no less than 737,OOO,OOO. Yet the Euro

country and Canada, up to the middle
of the ensuing April, sent 149,OOO,OOO
bushels to Europe from the crop OF
1907, and $4,000, 900 from the crop OF
1908, 1t has sent only 67,000,000 from
that of 1909. Europe has neverthe-
less imported, from all quarters, co.

reason is, that Russia has sent out
100000, 900 bushels more from the crop
of 1909 than from that of 1908. The

of 1895, from which the United States
