record, and which with seasonable
weather will yield billion bushels of
this nutritious grain-iresult In a de-
cline Of pirces.
1.-THE reason, of course, is the gov
ernment's guaranty of 1925 n bushel
to the farmer as a war measure. This
guaranty, while 1t covers only the
1919 crop, holds until June, 1920
in order to absorb the last reserves in
storage. A bill is now being pre-
pared by the chairman of the house
agricultural committee to extend this
date and also to shut out cheaper
wheat from other countries in order
to protect our own interests. 1t is
possible that without this guaranty
wheat would have gone still higher
Nevertheless, under it's impetus the
farmers will produce next year 400,
600, 900 bushels more wheat than car

must be thrown upon the world

spiders aren't the only ones, will often
really admire another creature much
more who keeps to his own sensible
ways than to let himself be coaxed in
to doing something very foolish"
"There are many flies who have com
pound eyes, many eyes. double eyes,
eyes, eyes," said the fly.
"And there are many-eyed spiders,
too," said the spider.
At this some more spiders and
flies joined them and the spiders
all began to ask the flies to talk the
subject over in more friendly fashion,
but the wise fly was there to keep them
from accepting the invitation.
'aHhey say" said the spider, "that
our eyes aren't as fine as the eyes of
people who only have one pair Of
eyes,"
"Why is that?" asked the fly. "That
seems rather strange"
Because" said the spider, "our eyes
are fixed in their different places and
people can look in all directions with
their eyes, sideways, upwards, down
wards and all over. They can really
do very well with one pair of eyes
apiece.
"And it is all because their eyes
are so movable"
'They can't take them out and have
them in the back of their heads one
moment and in the front the next, can
they?" asked another spider.
"No," said the spider, "they can
merely move them around in the reg
ular places for eyes so that they can
see all around them. But they can
move their heads so they can see what
is behind them.
"Ah, these are the days when there

"It is the spring, you see, flies and
spiders, and the spring is the time of

Just then a caterpillar crawled
along.

said the caterpillar to the spider "and
