there was warm glow around his
heart that made him insensible for the
moment to cold and chill.
Within his soul he felt the thrill OF
victory. a victory won over the ggeat-
est enemy the world knows. For, once
more his hand had helped to avert the
sword of the grim reaper-his skill
and sureness of touch had brought
back another soul from the brink. It
had been an emergency call this time,
"a call that came just as the bells were
'tollipg the birth of the New Year,
with the chances 100 to 1 against win
ming the fight, but again science and
skill had added another victory to its
long list. George Hamilton would
live; his family In the little cottage in
Bower street would have him back
with them before many days and, in
stead of mourning and sadness, there
would be JOY and happiness in the
little home. THANK God that I was
able to do It," Doctor Trevor wills.
pered to the skies as he got into his
little car. 1T seems like an omen OF
good to have this happen just as the
year was born
For this time he knew that he had
won double victory. For many years
he had tried hard to interest the old
and wealthy Mrs. Whiteside in the
building Of new hospital for Carter,
to be operated along new and up-to-
date lines. 1t was sorely needed in
the town and 1t had been the dream of
Doctor Trevor's life since he had come
there. Several times he had thought
that Mrs. Whiteside was on the point
of consenting, but always at the last
she had fallen back on the oft-used
argument that people we're just as well
off and got along just as well or bet
ter before all these new fandangle
ideas were known
Then last night had come the call
from the Hamilton home. For years
the Hamilton family Aad been count
ed by Mrs. Whiteside as her own spe-
cial protegees, and she had spoken
her mind quite plainly to Doctor Ire
vor this time: "They say the case
is almost hopeless-that there Is not
the equipment in the old hospital to
handle such case and that he can
not be moved to the city. Doctor Fos-
ter said there was chance and you
were the only one here that could
take it. If you succeed. 1t means the
new hospital within the year"
And as Doctor Trevor drove to his
home this early New Year morning,
the big building, with all its modern
equipment for helping humanity,
loomed before him already-a dream
building that would soon become a
reality.

GAINS s22,ooo,ooo INGRAM VALUE

Wisconsin farmers realized $22, 600
900 more on their corn, wheat and
oats this year than in 1923, according
to the Sears Roebuck Agricultural
Foundation which reports that the ma
tional increase in grain values
amount to S55O,000,OO0 Oats alone
were responsible for gain Of Is
millions, while wheat brought farmers
of this state about half a million and
corn an extra millions over last
year, the report states.
While the Wisconsin corn crop for
1924 fell considerably below that of
the preceding year, the better price
this year brought the total income to
"a 1-2 million dollars scompared
with 81 IL millions the year before.
The slight increase in the wheat CROP
this year brought the value up to
$500 900 as compared with $4,000,
900 Of 1923. The oat crop of this
state this year is up to 103 IL mil
lion bushels as compared to 80 mil
lion the year before with the result
that farmers will have taken IN So
million dollars on this crop as com
pared with 81 millions the year before
The yield per. acre on corn in Wis
consin the report states, dropped to
29.5 bushels per acre as a result of
unfavOrab1e weather, but the profit
per- bushel to The farmer was cents
as compared with loss of cents
the year before. The wet days, too.
were great help to the wheat and
oats production, the former rising to
1871 bushels per acre as com ared
with 1876 the year before, and the
latter to 40 from 1868 in 1928 The
profit per bushel of wheat this year
was IA cents where a loss of 20 cents
was taken last year and cent profit
in oats for the cent loss of the pre-
ceding year.
The increased yield per acre of
small grain and the increased prizes
per bushel on all grains has aided
materially in restoring the farmer to
a better financial basis, the Founda-
ton report concludes. The higher
grain prices have resulted in higher
live stock prices and this has
brought new vitality to agriculture

All motherhood enfoldeth--
