The average farm is the source of
tie greatest production of horses. and
TIL men that are careful in their sell
e.tion and who raise horses that can
fulfill some requirement, which may
be either speed, beauty or strength,
need never fear of the production en-
ceeding the demand. In fact, every
civilized country on the globe is en-
periencing IA shortage in commercial
horses, and there is little danger Of
the horse being relegated to innoc-
uous desuetude through the develop
ment of mechanical power.

TERMINAL WHEAT SUPPLIES.

In it's weekly resume of the wheat
conditions, the Minneapolis Tribune
has the following:
The amount of wheat in the term
inal markets of the country is excel
tionally large and has shown no
marked tendency to decrease since
the first Of the year. The domestic
consumptive demand continues at Il
minimum and wheat prices have de-
cined to the low points of the sea-
son.
The large accumulations have en-
cOuraged speculative short selling IN
the belief that domestic prices must
go to an expert level and have, at the
same time restricted flour buying b.
cause Of the heavy statistics. The
bear trader in the pit is anxious to
sell what he may buy in cheaper to-
morrow and the commercial buyer is
disposed to wait if lie may secure
his wants to better advantage later.
The dead weight Of stocks III the
central markets becomes the more
formidable because it is estimated
that the farmers have still a large
amount OF the 1910 harvest to sell
1t would be most unusual, however,
ii this bearing pressure and CONNER
cial apathy, which has been continu-
Gus IL the market since last fall, were
to continue throughout the crop year.
The period OF crop scares is almost at
hand and the time when primary sup
plies must meet the larger consume
tive call will decrease these accumr-
lations for the next five or sx
months.
Large supplies in the terminal ele-
vators is no guaranty Of Il snperabun-
dance. The largest aggregate supply
in recent years WAS oil January l, 1909
when the domestic visible stock were
l,759, 900 bushels. by the first of
May following these had shrunk to
~, i25, 900 bushels. although the high
est prices in years had been made to
attract all the available wheat. BY
the latter half of the following July
the visible had dwindled IL &, O34 900
bushels.
While that was Il time of strong
speculative excitement, there was
every incentive on the part of the
farmer to sell his wheat aS the price
was not only high but was considered
largely speculative. The present
trend of values is marketing. There
is, Of course, much more wheat in
first hands now than in 1909, but
prices, also are much lower.

SOME ASTOUNDING FIGURES.

Although the American people are
accustomed to the use of large fig.
ures, the following clipping from a
New York newspaper giving the Zig
ures on the annual assessment of
Gotham property, will prove fairly
stunning to most citizens.
The total valuation of the city of
New York was So, 800, OO0, 0OO-nine
billions and five hundred million dol
lars. These figures are equal to the
wealth or valuation of Arizona, Ar
kansas, California. Idaho. Iowa, Lou
isiana, Missouri, Montana, Nebras-
ka, Nevada, New Mexico, North and
South Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon,
Washington and Wyoming.
An enumeration Of some Of the in
divldual assessments it is no less as
founding. The Pennsylvania depot
is assessed at sl9,5OO,OO The New
York Life lnsuranc building is valued
at Il mere SIP ,OOO, 900 as is the Equit-
able and Mutual Life Insurance
building. The Imperial hotel is con-
sidered worth S3,60O,O0O, the Bel
mont hotels Ats 900 and the Knick-
erbocker S3.65O,O 900. \ few of the
business blocks are assessed as fol-
lows: Macy's store $4,000, 600, TIT
fany's 81, +5O, 900 and Altman's 81. 1885,
900. The 1910 figures it is claimed by
the exchange shows an increase of
$50, 0Oo, 900 over the valuation Of the
year before. Another astounding
feature that the statistics reveal is
the fact that actual tax levied is but
30 cents on each 900 assessed valu-

Probably every reader knows one or
more persons Of wide culture and sound
Judgment who are VIGOROUSLY bad spell
ers. At times it seems as if the art of
spelling correctly were a natural gift
rather than an attainment. 1t is curl
Gus, therefore. that correct spelling
should be considered an essential quail
fcation for jury duty. Yet that is the
view Of counsel who are examining can
didates for the jury which is to try the
meat packers in Chicago. Several citi-
zens summoned for examination We're
asked to spell and define the following
words: Irrelevant, elimination, excess
sive. presumption, credibility, untram-
meled, interstate.
1t is quite possible that some Of the
prospective Jurors knew the meaning
nut not the orthography of those test
words. All Of this in support of the
contention that bad spelling is not
necessarily a proof of general ignor-
ance
