SLUMP IN BEER PRODUCTION
1,1o6,42e Barrels Compared With
the Previous Year.

Looks as If beer drinking is on the
decline in the United States.
Uncle Sam produces the figures ~
prove 1t.
According to the annual report of
the internal revenue commissioner for
the fiscal year ending June 30, there
was a decrease in the output OF beer
of 1,106,429 barrels compared with the
previous year.
That's big decrease.
Counting 80 gallons to the barrel,
and there Is more, 1t means a slump
of SO, ,192,S70 gallons.
Counting only ten glasses to the gal
Ion, 1t means decrease Of 331, ,92S, 700
drinks.
Counting each drink f1ve cents, 4
shows that $16,596,455 less was spent
for beer in 1912 than in 1911.
There was an increase in the pro-
duction of whisky, but the bonded
warehouses are filled with the stuff,
and distillers are all "fussed up" be-
cause the supply is far exceeding the
demand.

TEN BUSHELS INCREASE.

National Crop Improvement Service.l
An increase of ten bushels of corn
to the acre upon the 6,628,909 acres
planted in the state of Illinois in 1911,
at 40 cents per bushel, would have
produced an increase of wealth to the
state of $26,515,636.
An increase of ten bushels of wheat
to the acre upon 1,336,267 acres seed
ed in the state of Illinois in 1911,
would have produced an increase of
wealth to the state of $l0,422, 1890.
An increase of ten bushels of oats
to the acre upon the 2,766,087 acres
seeded in the state of Illinois in 1911
would have produced an increase of
wealth to the state of $oo81 ,304.50.
An increase of ten bushels of rye to
the acre upon the 1886 acres seeded
in the state of Illinois in 1911, would
have produced an increase of wealth
to the state of $360,298.80
An increase of ten bushels of barley
to the acre upon the 1924 acres
seeded in the state of Illinois in 1911
would have produced an increase of
wealth to the state of $286,192.
The total wealth of the state from
the additional increase of ten bushels
to the acre of corn, wheat, oats, rye
and barley upon the acreage planted
in 1911 would have amounted to the
enormous sum of $H H,246,312.

FARMING MADE TO PAY BY
1900 KANSAS WOMEN.
Many Widows, and Some Taught
School-Follow Scientific Methods

Kansas has 1,200 women who are the
active managers of farms, and there is
scarcely one who has not made a sue
cess of her work. These women are
scattered over fifty-four counties.
Most women owning farm lands rent
the property, and generally they have
an agent who looks after affairs for
them But the Kansas 1,2OO direct
matters for themselves.
The Kansas woman farmer is scien-
tific. 1t is estimated by the state au-
thOrities that 9S per cent of the wo.y
men in active management of farms
are members of farmers Institutes
Most of the Kansas women farmers
are in central and western Kansas.
Among them are about thirty women
schOolteacherS who abandoned school
work because it was undermining their
health. Some bought farm lands. and
others took up homSSfEds on the gov
ernments lands oT"the state school
lands.
Many women farmers are widows to
whom were left good farms and fami-
lies to support when the husband died
These seldom do any of the work, as
they are able to hire men from their
own neighborhoOd, but all the prob
lens of management are solved by the
women.
Probably the best known woman
farmer in Kansas is Miss Mary Best
of Barber county. Every bushel of
her wheat is sold to millers and state
experiment stations at double the
usual wheat market figures, it being
used for seed by men who want the
best seed grown in the state. One
year the Oklahoma Agricultural col
lege bought the entire wheat crop OF
Miss Best's farm.

Matthew McKeon, 409 Ridge

to tell the people of Honesdale that
l found Doan's Kidney Pills a most
reliable kidney remedy l suffered
from a dull pain in the small of my
back and l was convinced that my
kidneys were disordered, as the kid
ney secretions were unnatural.
When Doan's Kidney Pills were
brought to my attention, l procured
supply at A. M. Leine's Drug Store.
Since using them, l have improved
in every way"
Confirmed Proof.
When Mr.. McKeon was interview
ed some years later, he said: II still
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills in
the highest terms. This remedy has
convinced me of its merit by giving
me relief after other kidney medi-
cine failed.
