the facilities for doing business.
A few years ago the insurance Of
deposits by the government was Wig
orously advocated. and a good deal of
popular sentiment in favor of il vas
expressed. The new state Of Okla
homa adopted the policy, and then
most people forgot all about il. The
experience Of Oklahoma, While appar-
emily not as disastrous as was feared
by the more pronounced opponents
Of the plan. has not been satisfactory
enough to create a desire in other
states for a like system. The chief
objection to the insurance of deposits
by the government is that it tends TO
destroy the advantage that the Well
managed institution has over the one
not SO we'll managed. II would place
all banks on the same basis. and in
that manner would tend to destroy all
incentive to careful management.
The state of Wisconsin is trying out
4 system of insurance which will, il
S hoped, afford security without COM
polling the good bank TO carry the
load Of helping out the credit of the
poor one. Under the Wisconsin plan
Insurance is effected through an as
ISOLATION of the banks themselves.

surance is that it permits banks TO
select their own company. The hank
that is known to pursue wildcat
methods will not he admitted To such
an organization. The members Of the
association will insist that all concerns
that are admitted are fully up TO the
mark. and they will take steps to see
that they are kept SO. The plan looks
like a good one. and it eliminates the
feature Of government insurance
which was most Objectionable.

TIE CORN CROP

The corn crop Of the nation will be
short this year. The eason as a whole
has been ~unfavorable for it, and the
late, cold spring was succeeded by a
great deal of hot. dry weather. so that
growth vas checked and the yield will
be very materially impaired. Weeks
Of unfavorahle weather in Kansas, Ne
nraska, Oklahoma and adjoining states
literally parched the ground, and the
crop there is in many places practical
~ ruined.
North Dakota is not a corn state
in the sense that the states named are
corn states. But our farmers are rails
ing 2 great deal of corn, and the acre
age planted to this crop this year is by
far the greatest in the history of the
state. North Dakota corn stood the
season we'll, and the prospects now
are for the best corn crop that mas
YER been raised here. The heat that
was SO disastrous to the states farther
south, coupled as it was with excess
sive dryness, was just what our corn
crop needed to stimulate its growth.
The soil contained plenty OF water
to make the plant food available, and
with the HOT days and warm nights
which caused our southern n~eishbors
both loss and suffering. the corn mere
fairly leaped from the ground.
The value Of the corn crop to North
Dakota is not IN its market price or
its availability for shipment. we are
no likely to ship much corn from this
state, and We would be better off if
rot a bushel were shipped. Corn
grown on North Dakota fields is Of
immensely greater value fed TO stock
on the same farms than il can pos
sibly shipped in car lots. The more
corn we raise the more cattle will have
to be raised to ca, it. and the raising
OF cattle means prosperity in a dozen
directions for our farmers

high school together back in the small
Indiana town. Amy Gehhardt's face
showed faint lines in spite of care

in telltale middle-aged style. Jessie
Karle's shapeless form and craving
hair testified plainly to more than
forty years.
Mrs. Gerhardt had happened casu-
ally to read an account of a street car
collision. The name of one motorman
struck her as familiar. Ezra Karle
was an uncommon name. too. She
puzzled for an hour before she re-

an eastern boarding school after that

school teaching. which was the best
the small town afforded.
So they had not seer each other for
twenty years.
Jessie had come to the door in a

hats. and her way of doing her blond

cost much more than baby chicks.
but it must be remembered that the

that they are now active and sturdy.
and are within a short time of be-
ginning to lay.
1t is doubtful If first class pullets
can be obtained nov or a little later
for a dollar a piece, but even suppose
50 a piece is paid-the price is not
high. They should begin to lay some
time IN October ~ November, if they
are of the heavier breeds-Plymouth
Rocks. Wyandottes, Rhode Island
Reds. Orpingtons. etc..-and a little
earlier if of the lighter breeds-the
Leghorn. the Minorca. etc. In the
fall and winter the price Of strictly
not so strictly fresh rises to fifty
or sixty cents per dozen. Therefore. by
spring time. with proper care, of
course. most of the money paid for
good puilets will be returned in eggs.
Then, too, we are making a start in
a business that Is bound to grow not
crly in this country but also in other
countries. We are learning something

place of great herds Of cattle that

The census of 1910 shows that cat

by 100000 head. while the number
Of chickens increased in that time
about 10000. 600. the value Of the
increase being set a: $50. 900, 900. That
there is for improvement in
chicken culture is shown by the fact
that the average egg production was
set at SO eggs per GEAR. though there
are many breeders averaging between
125 and 200 eggs per year. The err
rors that bring the average down to
50 eggs per year are gradually being

the retail price of onions and fixed it
al ter cents a pound.
Texas producers found the market
narrow AZ the price and as they re-
ceived only two cents for their prod
nc, the attractive profit OF the retailers
did Tot a,trac, them. They suggested
three cents as a fair deal all around,
hu, this was scornfu:ly rejected by the
erocers. So the Texans hired a hail
or a selling place of ON kind and
made three cents look big to those
same sroc=rs. who came down TWO

competition.

market didn't care 10 serve the con-

cents a hushel. They wouldn't buy in
the fall. and when the growers had
stored we onions through the winter
they We're still II a repel!aat mood and
wouldn't buy them in the spring.
Therefore the growers carted OIL, their
onions and plowed them under for

These NO reoi,als Of facts suggest
speciTc inquiries as follows:
Are there both in the wholesale and
