Suppose l was to ask you how
long it takes a harness broke burg
lar to get inta house and go
through it?
You'd kind of laugh and say:
well, about half an hour
You'd be way off. 1t takes any
where from two days to two
weeks. A burglar takes days,
sometimes, to get everything down
pat, and makes sure there's no
chance of slipping up.
A burglar isn't a tramp. A bum
burglar may be, but a good one
isn't.
Tip No. Don't trust stranq-
ers around your house no mat
ter what kind of good clothes
they wear or how polite they
are. Don't take chances.
The first thing one of us fellows
does after reaching a town is to
make tracks for the swell resi-
dences and size things up. Out in
the tony parts of town there aren't
any coppers because there aren't
any DRINKS to pick up or any
fights. Most of us fellows won't
try after any kind of a house ex-
cepting a two-story one. or one of
these apartments.

WORLDS WHEAT
SURPLUS IN 1910
|4Q,000,000 BU.

LONDON, Sept. 27.-The de-
mand and supply of the world
wheat has been computed by grain
authorities here, country for coun-
try, and according to the figures
now available, the worlds produc-
ton of wheats this year is 100000
900 bushels in excess of the de-
mand.
Here are the actual. or estimated,
quantities of surplus in the leading
wheat producing countries over the
demand of each country for it's own
annual need. These amounts will
be available for expectation:
Bushels.
NuSold .liO,OOV,oVo
Roumania and Bulgaria 96,000,O00
United States ......... 92,OOO,OOO
Canada ........ ...... 60,000,0 900

Argentine ZIG, 900, 900
Australia .............. 4S,OO0,O00
lHuld Of,UUU,UuU
Total surplus ...... .702, 900, 900
The requirements of the non
wheat producing countries will
reach 562,000,000 bushels, and will
be divided as follows:
Bushels.
Great Britain .21S,000, 900
Germany, Belgium and
Holland ...... .... 1876 900 900

Total ...............56 2 900 900
The difference of 140,000,000
bushels represented by the excess
of the surplus supply over the ex-
ira demand will probably be stored
until next year.
