went to Galena, the young couple

with flowers, most of which are al
ready in bloom. This garden has pro-
duced green peppers, cucumbers and
cabbage, the past week, in addition
to all the early vegetables, and they
expect to eat corn from there next
week. Every variety of flower that
blooms in July is in blossom and in
quantities. Mr.. and Mrs. Loveland
may surely count themselves as real
producers.

the production Of capital, substan-
tial part was misdirected during 1919
and early 1920. Government ship
building continued on a great scale.
We over-expanded the automobile in
dustry. We neglected railroad equip
ment, public utilities and housing. Un-
wise expansion has ceased. New op-
erations of the right sort are being
planned.
Business psychology in 1919 and
early 1920 manifested an irrational
exaltation of an extreme sort. From
this we swung to state of shell
shock in December of 1920. Today
we have recovered from shell shock.
Business men are facing facts square
ly, with caution but with courage.
Progress in credit liquidation has
taken place since October of 1920, but
monetary ease has not yet been
achieved. The reserve ratio of the
Federal Reserve System in recent
weeks has been rising slowly at the
rate of fraction Of l per cent a
week. A much more thorough going
paying off of loans will have to pre-
cede real ease in the money market,
With any considerable acceleration in
the movement of goods, however, this
might come with surprising sudden
ness.
Price readjustment has gone far, so
far as the general average of whole
sale prices is concerned, but har-
monious price system has not yet
been achieved. Further declines in
the general average may be looked
for, and sharp declines in those lines
that have fallen least, including
wages, many special manufactures,
building materials, steel anI retail
prices. Industrial readjustment in
wolves considerable diversion of la
Dor and resources from luxury lines
tothe building of houses and the re-
placement of capital equipment. This
is so far only half accomplished. Labor
has been creleased from .non-essential
lines but has not yet been absorbed
in essential lines. Further price re-
adjustment must precede the revival
of building activity, railroad construc-
ton and similar long time investment.

Arnold Bennett says that medita-
tion is not practical characteristic
of this age, but that meditation is
none the less an essential to real liv-
ing. It's value lies in keeping the
mind directed upon chosen theme
and not allowing it to wander at ran
dom. We allow a magnificent mach
inc to rust within our craniums,
writes the gifted author, and are pre-
vented from undertaking some serious
study by mental apparatus which is
out of condition, puffy, weedy, through
sheer neglect. The remedy which NJ.
Bennett has demonstrated is the cult
walton of will-power and getting our
mental apparatus into condition. "To
will is easy; it needs bu the momen-
tary bright contagion of a stronger
spirit than our own. To fulfil, morn
ing after morning o. evening after
evening, through months and years
this is the very dickens"

A farmer has communicated to the
Editor sure method to prevent
crows visiting corn fields, which he
has practised for some years, and has
ever been attended with the desired
effect. As those mischievous birds
have been very troublesome for years
past to many farmers, the following
method is thought worthy the public
attentiNn:
Take three or four old shoes that
are worn out, and fill the toes OF
them with sulphur, or the roll OF
birthstone broken small, make fire
with chips, or any small dry wood in
or near the middle of your corn field
on fiat rock, or on the bare mould
"a rock being preferably after plant
ing your corn field; then lay the toes
of the shoes on the fire and let them
continue until the leather be burnt
through and the birthstone has taken
fire; then after sticking down poles of
ten or twelve feet in length at each
corner of your field, and inclining
them toward the centre, make
string fast to the headquarters of each
shoe, and tie it fast to the top ends
of the poles, letting the strings ex-
tend half way down, and when swing
ing, not to interfere with the poles;
and no crows will alight on your field
that season.-From the Old Farmers
Almanack, 1897.
