Noyember 4th, l9lT. To Canaan People:
 wish that every Canaan person -could'know of the great work the Y. Nj. o. A. is doing for the boys at Camp Devens It furnishes place where we can go and write letters home, read, and in many other helpful and useful ways breaks up the monotony of the camp life. We can go there and see moving pictures, boxing matches and other sports. If the people of Canaan only knew one-half of the comforts and benefits we derive from the Y. M. c. A. they would give willingly and cheerfuIly next week when called upon to help out in this great work. I es- pecially urge my fellow church people to contribute all they can as there is no distinction made on account of relig ioas scruples. A Catholic boy is trested just the saine as a Protestant and he is not asked to in any way change his religious belief. l hope you all will give all you can.
 Your friend,
 James A. Kane.

Cook says that he would much rather haul his wheat to a mill in Carlisle than have to haul it to England, which he will have to do in the event that the mill is not built here. There is every reason to believe that there will be enough of our farmers raise wheat the coming season to justify the building of the mill.

CORN IS STILL KING
IN OLD KENTUCKY
Tobacco Only One-HaIf as VaIu.
abIe-Suited to Kentucky
Soil and Climate.

1t is very important Mat every
farm boy in this country should
know to what extent the corn crop
contributes to our national prosper
ity and welfare. Corn is the worlds
greatest cereal crop. because on land
suitable to its growth, 1t will yield
about twice as much food per acre
as any other grain. The United
States has the only large area in the
world suitable for its growth, as is
shown by the fact that three-fourths
of the entire crop is produced here.
When We realize further that one
fourth of the worlds entire grain
crop Is corn, it is easy to understand
why we have becorre such an i'm
portant agriculture country. The
annual yield of corn in the United
States is about 81 million tons. This
is four times as great as our produc-
ton OF wheat and six times as great
as that of oats, the next most i'm
portant crops.
Kentucky is one of the great corn
States, and has much land particu-
larly well suited to the crop. We
produce ten times as much corn as
wheat, and the t,N1cco crop has an
average value or'v about one-half
as great as that IF corn. Yet our
average yield is but about rs bush
els per acre, which. however, is APP
proximately the average yield for
the entire country Corn occupies
such large perc age of the land
suitable for the production of grain
crops in Kentucky that to increase
our output of food crops is chiefly
a problem of incre" sing the yield of
corn per acre. here is no other
crop with which the possibilities of
increased yields ave as great as with
corn. In time We can double the
present average yield. Certainly
members of BOYS clubs in Kentucky
can learn nothing more important
than how to handle the corn crop
so as to insure larger yields.
