the sky. The sunshine is on my head.
The earth gives me its generous sap,
but heaven lights me with reflection
of unknown worlds.
You say the soul Is nothing but the
resultant Of the bodily powers. Why,
then, is my soul more luminous when
my bodily powers begin to failf Win

is in my heart. There I breathe at this
hour the fragrance of the lilacs, the

mortal symphonies of the worlds which
invite me. 1t is marvellous, yet simple.
1t Is a fairy tale, and 1t is history.

ILLINOIS WHEAT
CROP IS HUGE
Tremendous Growth viii
Help Feed Starving
Europeans.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Nov. 2l.-Illinois'
s"uperproduCtion Of wheat In 1918, al
though grown for war needs, will help
stay the hunger Of conquered peoples
Of Europe now that victory has came,
according to H f. Young, secretary
OF the Illinois Farmers institute, who
has Just issued a booklet showing how
the states farmers responded to the
governments call to augment the 1000
supply.
"ininois farmers went over the top
by increasing their winter wheat acre
age over 10 per cent" says the book
let. They planted nearly a quarter OF
a million acres more than the previous
fall The total acreage increase for the
United States was about 4 per cent,
Illinois did 1850 per cent better than
the country at large, So earnest and
vigorous was the response OF Illinois
farmers to the call Of the government
that II per cent Of the total winter
wheat increase Of the entire country
was made in Illinois,
Mr., Young says that, although "lui-
nots has neVer produced much spring
wheat a gratifying effort WAS made
by farmers In this crop. or spring
wheat he declares: The government
asked for 100, 600 acres. Kane county
farmers alone seeded over $4,000 acres,
or nearly a quarter OF the total acre.
age demanded. Other Northern coun-
ties responded most nobly and, instead
Of the governments request Of 100, 900
acres. Illinois planted over 200, 900 acres
in spring wheat In addition to the 10
per cent in winter wheat already In the
ground.
Not only did soil tillers in Illinois
increase the acreage Of their wheat in
1918, Mr.. Young declares, but they har-
vested bigger yields. Better seed beds
were made he writes, better seed
sown and more fertility added TO the
soil. As a result Illinois produced a
record breaking crop Of over Is, 900 200
bushels. an increase OF over 81 per
cent over the previous year, The yields
per acre were also the largest on rec
ord, the average for the state being
25 bushels as against 10 and II bush
els in 1917 and 1916. respectively

Only Objection.

The only objection one hears to the
selection Of MIR. Root comes from those
who believe the radicals and liberals
abroad would misunderstood the APP
pointment. Quite q hullaboo was raised
by the appointment Of Mr., Root to head
the American mission to Russia on the
ground that his early affiliations with
corporate interests had made him un-
receptive to the progressive Ideas OF an
Industrial democracy. something OF
the same opposition is being whispered
anew but answer to 1t Is usually made
by the suggestion that the president
should put a conservative as well as
a radical on so important a thing as a
peace delegation, which must be repre-
sentative OF ell American interests. The
