Moyemsnt Of the Crons.

From Kansas comes a report based upon
a statement made by the Kansas board OF
agriculture which shows that from tho
prairies of Kansas a crop of not iess than
ia. 900. 900 bushels OF corn will DO har-
vested. In view OF the fact that the
Kansas farmers planted corn to the small
est acreages since 1881. this corn harvest
Is regarded as very good. 1t Is nearly
rs. 900. 900 bushels greater than the aver
age corn harvest garnered in Kansas since
1910. Supplementing II will be very
large corn harvest in the midwest and In
some of the northwestern states. In or
der to finance the movement OF the corn
from the fields to the markets and mills
a large amount Of funds will be necessary.
These will be released and made available
for other purposes late in the fall and
upon that fact Ia based one Of the reasons
why It IL expected that full industrial
activity will not be recognized until No

Ebe New pork eimes.

New York, Sept. l.-Thcre were
several. indictments OF both interest
and significance on today's markets.
The continued recovery IN sterling
exchange, making sac advance this
week and carrying rates to the
highest level since June, was one OF
them; the further striking increase
in the New York federal reserve
banks reserve percentage was an
other; the governments extraordi-
nary low estimate on the cotton
crop a third. None OF these had any
visible effect on the stock exchange,
where business relapsed into mid
summer inactivity, with advances
and declines in prices fairly balanced
as to number and in a few instances
more than fractional.
In its direct or indirect bearing
on the industrial situation, the gov
ernment's monthly report of the
cotton crop was the matter of para
mount importance in today's mar
kets. 1t had been known before
hand that the crop, after starting
out with % per cent reduction in
acreage, was faring badly. Weather
in the south has been unfavorable
nearly all this summer, but espe-
cially in August. On the basis of
conditions two months ago, the De-
partment of Agriculture estimated
probable yield at 8,433,000 bales and
one month ago at 8,203.CO0.
Estimates Fall Short.
This would have meant a crop smaller
by 81 per cent than in 1920 and smaller

FOCUS YOUR ENERGIES

uTWANTED to be a singer sad "a
writer. 81 had pretty fair
voice. With cultivation it could have
been made better. But / know If l
spent the time necessary for its Gull
tivation, wouldn't have time to learn
to draw. And l had more ability at
picture making than at singing.
II didn't quit singing cold. l still
sing a little. But l dropped 1t as
business. One business is all any man
can attend to If he wants to get along.
Today this man is one of the high
est paid illustrators in the country.
He might have been fair illustrator
and fair singer. or good singer
and bad illustrator. But he chose
the career for which he had the
greater talent, and stuck to 1t.
The late Charles Z. Van Loan IN
youth developed considerable talent
for drawing. When he was fourteen
or fifteen his teachers predicted that
he would some day be great ARTIST.
But he discovered that he could
write better than he could draw, ana
thereafter he drew only to amuse MS
friends and his children.
All his energies were bent toward
learning to write. and learn to write
he did.
Many men are born with little tai
emf for several different activities.
And many such ruin their lives Dy
scattering their energies instead OF
concentrating them on the one thing
they can do best.
Time allotted to man is inSufhclent
for the mastery of even single art
or profession
Few men, however great, ever die
! with the feeling that they have reached
ANYTHING like the standards they set
for themselves.
There is always something still to
learn when the summons comes to lay
labor aside forever.
The surest way to win the measure
of success that your abilities can COM
mand is to select the profession or the
trade or the business you most en-
JOY following, and keep at that to the
exclusion of every ching else save
| needful recreation.
1t is poor set of brains that cannot
learn to do one thing particularly
| well. It is q miraculous brain that
can learn to do two things even fairly

GALL is WELL"

TN A clause in the will of Prof.

made that his body should be cremat-
ed and that q portion Of the ashes

To live and love and labor, and to

We have within us pent-up tor
rents of factious words which in sud-
