VALUE OF FARM
LANDS GOES UP
Increases Are General Through.
out Country, Says Fed
eraI Bureau.
ABOUT 81 PER acre PER YEAR
Estimates Based Upon Reports From
Crop Reporters Show Few Ex-
captions In General Upward
Trend in Rural Districts.

Washington.-The value Of farm
lands Of the United States, without i'm.
provements, is estimated at $45.55 per
acre, as compared with $40S5 a year
ago. $40.31 two years ago, $3.50 three
years ago. and $36.23 four years ago
The census reported the value of farm
lands in 1910 as $32. 40, and in 1900 as
1857 per acre.
In recent years the value of farm
lands has been increasing at the rate
Of about per cent year, or approx
mately So per acre per year. The ex.
ceptional increase of the past year
may be explained partly by the reac-
ton in the Southern cotton states fol.
lowing a temporary depression last
year, and partly by the stimulus given
by the war to prices, particularly of
grain.
Increases have been general
throughout the United States. the only
noteworthy exceptions being orchard
lands and some irrigated lands in the
Northwest. which apparently had been
overvalued before.
The percentage increases in value
of farm lands In the past year by sec
lions of the United States are: North
Atlantic states. 10 per cent; eastern
part Of north central states, per
cent; western part of north central
states. IL per cent; South Atlantic
states, 10 per cent; south central
states, II per cent; far Western states,
IL per cent; entire United States. lis
per cent.
The percentage increases in farm
land values in four years. that is,
since 1912, are; North Atlantic states,
II per cent; eastern part of north cen
trail states. 20 per cent; western part
Of north central states, Is per cent;
South Atlantic states, % per cent:
south central states, Is per cent; far
Western states. "a per cent; entire
United States, 25.7 per cent.
These estimates are based upon re-
ports from crop reporters of the bu-
reau Of crop estimates.

High-CIass Music.

Centralia, Kan.-Centralia people de-
clare the town has the youngest
church organist in the state, and prob
ably the only boy organist. Edward Ev-
erett is only thirteen years old, and
when in his knee-pant suit he walks
up into the choir gallery on Sunday
mornings, strangers might think he
was going to pump the church organ
or maybe sing in children's chorus,
but would never suspect he was the
church organist for a real grown-up
choir. including music supervisors and
teachers.
And when he gets on the bench at
the organ you cannot see even the
top of his head, so the music gives
one the impression of coming from the
organ without any assistance. When
the services are over and Edward
walks out. strangers are astonished.
He shirks none of the regular pro-
gram Of the services, but plays volun-
taries and anthems as well as the
hymns. and chooses difficult, high-class
music.

Only by Carefully Following That Rule
Can individuality Be Prop

The woman. who follows the fash
ions without regard to her own type
makes a great mistake. Every woman
should dress according to her type II
she would appear to her best advan-
tage. The clothes which suit her type
will bring out her individuality; the
stylish models will smother it. And
in the pursuit of beauty, individuality
plays a most important part.
Beauty alone never held sway for
any length Of time, never made an
impression that lived to influence the
world; women of individuality who
have not been beauties have proved
how important is this Elusive some
thing called individuality.
We have only to glance about us at
any public gathering and we will see
our own countrywomen with the char
&cteristics of the Morse woman with
her fair coloring and stately bearing;
or the Russians with the pathos of
