merise Kansas wheat crop would pro-
vide this average ration for 1857 900
soldiers for one year The magnitude
of the crop is illustrated again in the
statement that it could be made to
girdle the earth at the equator thirty
two times with beautiful, one-pound
loaves. For their bumper crop, the
farmers Of Kansas will receive the
handsome total OF sS5,00O.000, and

canal has been looked upon as stu,

yet here is single crop in single

the ultimate consumer will be sold

Prospectors who come to Texas
from the overcrowded states and fail
to see Bryan and Brazos county have
missed the cream of the whole thing.
In fertility of soil, combined with sea-
sons, insuring good yields every year,
we can offer them the best in Texas.
In conveniences that contribute to the
making of real home, we can offer
them as good as can be found any
where. In churches We are unsur-
passed, and in educational advantages
We lead, not only in Texas, but in the
whole South. These are our advan-
tages that can be demonstrated, and
should be emphasized in the repre-
sensations we make to the home
seekers throughout the country.

In the open air and less time in heat.
ed houses we would be far healthier
nation than We are. II is a mistake
which is made with the coming of
winter. In summer it is different. We
seek the open air for comfort. We
desert the house whenever We can
and sit on the open porches during
the long summer evenings. In winter
the contrary is true. The porches are
deserted and the parks have but few
visitors. Cold is an enemy to health
when it drives people in doors.
The physical system, lacking exer-
else and fresh air, becomes surely,
slowly, perhaps, but surely sluggish.
Sudden liability to colds is the usual
result, followed sometimes by more
serious ailments.
Winter is the season when the tu-
bercular germ roams recklessly
throughout the world. 1t is a season
OF pneumonia and other pulmonary
troubles. If we could but fully under
stand and appreciate the fact that it
is not so much the cold air that is
responsible for these troubles but the
fact that We remain penned up in
artificially heated buildings that is
responsible for most of the winters
sickness we would be far better off.
Exercise and air are conducive to
good health and the man or woman
who INDUCES freely in both is almost
certain to pass the winter through
and escape the sickness of the season.
Exercise should be play, not work
The walk to and from the office is
advisable, 1t is beneficial and fits a
person for the days work.
1t is a lesson which should be borne
in mind. 1t should be remembered by
all who wish to enjoy good health

THE NEED OF EXERCISE.

Too much stress can not be placed
on the importance of exercise With
the passing of summer our eut-of-
door life practically comes to close.
This is especially true of city dwell
ers. The open window is closed to
shut out the cold winds of the coming
winter Furnace heat is turned on and
artificially heated buildings begin the
work of breeding disease. The rattle
Of the radiator may have pleasant
and ear appealing sound to it on a
frosty morning, but it is not conducive
to good health.
Nature invitingly spreads through
the woods a resilient carpet of the
richest hues. yet fails to tempt many
comfort-loying people from their
warm homes.
This is great mistake. Fresh air
Is natures surest tonic. Get out into
the open air as much as you can.
Keep the children out of doors. Make

1t is becoming more and more evident
that some action will have to be taken 10
rectify the railroad situation. The report
from Washington of the Bureau Of Railway
Economics, which complies data from prac-
tically the entire mileage Of the country,
shows that there has been an almost stead
lily diminishing trend in railway returns for
the last two years. The summary OF April
1912, shows that net operating revenue was
over s6,000,000 less than for April 1911,
equivalent for mile OF line to s93. or ia
per cent. decrease. The average for each
mile Of line in April year ago was 50 IS
for each day on all the lines Of the coun-
try, while this year for April the average
was IS 81. a decrease of 81 IL for each day
of the month on every mile of line In the
country. The effect Of this really disturb

their inability TO borrow money and TO
carry on the development Of the country, so

who sought to take advantage Of the weak

bumper crops were coming and prices must
fall.
The close Of the week in the cotton mar

had gone short on the strength of crop
predictions, and the sharp rise which
marked Saturdays trading, based on heavy
rains in the Atlantic sections and fears OF
