be ornamental combs, for their elab-
oration. These two are introduced in
many positions.
But exceptions which suit the, style
and features of the individual are al
ways commendable. The pretty Golf
fure shown in the picture is arranged
In rather boyish lines about the face,
with long side part and no curls. 1t is
wholly redeemed from this masculine
touch by the Psyche knot at the back.
One cannot believe that any other
style would be quite SO becoming to
this particular face, and this is the
conviction which makes any couture
successful.

CROP OF 1915 MOST
VALUABLE PRODUCED

American harvest this year will be
the most valuable ever produced. The
wheat crop will exceed a billion BUSH
els, the largest ever produced in one
season by any nation and the corn
crop also may prove to be the largest
ever grown.
Never in this country have good
crops been accompanied by hard
times. Never in the history of the
nation was the outlook for good times
more promising.
The government forecasts indicate
record harvests of oats, barley, rye,
sweet potatoes, tobacco, rice and
hay.
Corn is still king of crops with in
dications of 3,026,159,OOOa bushels.
While that is 98,O0O,O0O bushels be-
low the record of 1912, the final pro-
duction, when the harvest is finished
and all statistics compiled, may more
than make up the deficiency: The
higher prices this year assure the
most valuable corn crop ever grown:
AT prices to farmers prevailing Oc-
tober /, the corn crop is worth $2,-
133,000,00O.
Wheat prospects increased as the
growing season progressed and the
governments early season forecasts
moved up month by month so that
today's preliminary estimate of pro-
duction was placed at 1,O02,029,000
bushels. Wet weather at harvest
time, however, reduced the quality OF
winter wheat so that much of it will
not be available for milling purposes
and will have to be used for feed. AT
prices prevailing October the farm
value Of the crop is $91O,844,00O,
considerably more than ever was
paid for the wheat crop before.
September weather was particul-
ar1y destructive to potatoes, causing
a reduction Of 37,758,000 bushels
or 10 per cent, in the forecast OF
production. Tobacco also suffered
from unfavorab1e conditions, which
caused decrease = of 21,196,0O0
pounds in the. production forecast,
Tobacco, however, promises to ex.
ceed the record crop of 1909 by 49,
100000 pounds.
Oats viii exceed the record crop OF
1912 BY almost 10000, 900 bushels
Barley will exceed it's record by 49,
100000 bushels; 4 sweet: potatoes by
5,o0o,OO0ai bushels; rice by 100000
bushels; and hay by $1,000, 900 tons

UP AND DOWN,

Two brothers near the same age
once lived in small country town.
The elder of the -twoSwas a fascina-
ting, handsome, dashing young fell
low, popular with the girls and a
"hail fellow we'll met with the boys.
He was regarded as a "rising young
man. -'.-a- %
The other brother was QUIET, diff
fident,,s hard worker, more tolerated
than cultivated in social affairs, and
with apparently but one thought up
permost in his gmind=--that Of doing
his work well and to the satisfac-
tion of his employer. se-,.,r +,
Today these brothers are both in
great city. The younger is at the
head Of an, immense manufacturing
concern employing many hundreds
of people, while the "dashing and
fascinating" brother is but clerk in
his9 employ, onT therT payroll because
he is his brother. ySti5sLf.
