that instead of amethysts the gems
were topazcs. The latter vary in color

Blind Develop Other Senses.


The man who is born blind develops
his other senses to degree that seems
almost unCanny to sighted people, says
writer in London Tit-Bits. His
hearing forms one of the principal
channels through which he obtains
Knowledge of what is taking place
around him. The slightest variation in
sound conveys wealth of inlorma-
ton TO him, because he learns to as
Sociate these sounds with their origin
ana the manner in which they are pro-
duCcd. For shape and texture he de-
ponds upon his touch and the touch
Of II man who has never had sight is
wonderfully sensitive and delicate. To
find his way about he depends upon his
sense of direction and obstacle, which
have become highly developed owing
to the fact that he has always been
entirely dependent upon them. For
that part of his education which can
be derived from books he depends on
Braille.

Farm help for 1918 will be scarce
and an increase in crop production
is imperative. Increased crop pro-
duction will come for two seasons
First, the profit for 1918 will be
larger than ever before and the
farmers are as patriotic as any
other class of workman and will
make every effort to raise more
money to help Uncle Sam and the
boys over there. But how will
they do it?
The tractor is one of the an.
swers, here in America the same as
in Europe. A boy or cripple can
do two or three mems work with a
tractor.
But whose tractor will l buy?
First a standard tractor of reliable
make. Tractors may be divided
into two general classes. Then
there are two, three and four wheel
tractors. front wheel drives aud
rear wheel drives, besides the sin

gle wheel drives, so everyone may
have their choice. A reliable
tractor will not only increase the
crop size, but will lessen the cost
per acre of production. The Amer
lean farmer who places his order
early may be assured of his tractor,
but the man who waits will surely
be left for the demand this year
will far exceed the production.
Tractors are a preferred article in
manufacture according to govern
ment rules.
Foreign countries are ready to
take all of the tractors that Uncle
Sam will allow to leave this couu-
try. If Jasper County means to
keep up her reputation more trac
tors will be operated next year
than this, and We have protected
some few farmers by our early
orders on tractors and plows. If
