The weather is so fine that we who
are proof against the debilitating in
fluence Of floating pollen must envy
the members of the Hay Fever Asso-
citation, in congress assembled at Beth
lehen,. New Hampshire. Yet these
delegates, enabled to spend the very
best days Of the year in a salubrious
neighborhood, free from permicious
goldenrod and baneful milkweed, are
not contented. They are told every
day that there are no finer views in
Switzerland. they can motor through

GRAIN \ PRICES.

According to the federal estimate.
the United states has this year raised
the largest wheat CROP in its history,
the grand total reaching practically
800, 900, 900 bushels. This. of course.
includes wheat of all kinds. It is es-
timated that of this We will have
about one-third for export. With SO
large a supply for export, the tendency
would, Of course, have been toward
low prices had it not been for the
war. although shortage due to nat
ural causes in several of the wheat
growing countries of the world would
have offset this in some measure.
Another feature is also to be con-
sidered. The corn crop is light, and
crops of other grains are not heavy.
1t is a well known fact that the sup
ply of n grain crop reacts on the
price of all other grains. This is be-
cause, in some measure, one grain NAV
be substituted for another. If oats
and barley for feed are scarce. and
corn is plentiful, corn flows in to fill
the gap. If the ordinary feed grains
are scarce and wheat is plentiful, some
of the poorer grades of wheat, which
would otherwise be used for low
grade -four, maybe used for feed.
Hence. with some foreign shortage,
and with some shortage at nome in
the supply of other grains, the chances
are that even without the war. wheat
would have sold at a fair price. The
war, Of course, has added a good many
cents to the price. and American
wheat is higher than it has been for
ranv wears.

ENDURANCE GOLF.

a golf player the other day sta rted
out at 4 a. m. to see how much golf
he could play in a day. He succeed
ed in making the rounds of a nine
hole course nine times before dark,
and this. as the course was about one
and q half miles long, was equivalent
to about twenty-three miles OF
straight-away playing, :,
Doubtless that sort Of thing has to
come in connection with every game.
and, when the stunt has been pulled
off, n wonders why, what good
1t all was. One of the important ele-
ments of any game is that of contest
one man tries to play the game bet
ter than another. There are also con-
tests against time which have their
place. But the contest of endurance
Is about as improbable a thing as can
be imagined. Real sportsmen were
dlssusted 2 few years wears ago by
the long distance bicycle races in
which the contestants were reduced
by exertion and loss of sleep 10 the
~condltlon of mere automatons. The
same thing has characterized Soma
other sports. and now it appears to
have attacked golf. The tendency
should be discouraged. It is the mark
OF degeneracy. 1t may not ruin 9
sport, but It adds to it a very unde-
sirable feature,
Golf is a royal game. It takes men
and women out Of doors and gives
them healthful exercise. It teaches
sklll m builds UP strength. But
the effort to see how many miles one
can drive a ball in a day will not help
any, M it isn't worth while.

ROBINSON CRUSOE'S ISLE
REACHED BY WIRELESS

The announcement cabled from
Chile hat Juan Fernandez, the island
lying $50 nautical miles west of VAL
paraiso and immortalized by Daniel
Defoe's tole of Robinson Crusoe, has
nearly completed its wireless telegraph
station has in it a note of interest to
every person of youthful or adult
years. It brings home with peculiar
force the fact that the solitary parts
Of earth are losing their character.
The sam dispatch says that Punta
Arenas, the southernmost city of the
world, has also been linked UP by
wireless.
Alexander selkirk, the lonely proto-
type of Robinson Crusoe, instead of
enduring a solitary sojourn on this OBJ
scure spot of the terraqueous globe,
might by our present knowledge of
vibrations in the ether have made all
mankind aware of his plight in a few
moments-that is, had they been at all
as receptive of such a message as they
We're of Defoe's matches story. Yet
this day Of real miracles has somehow
lost its element of The mind
peers back into the days when the seas
were mysterious and were sailed by
the buccaneers; when the rakish Gin
