With the principal wheat crops of
the world now-practioall'y secured it
is possible to arrive at a fairly accurate
estimate of the total production in
1898. From the commencement 'of
seeding the crop scares that are usu-
ally plenty in the critical months have
been missing, and this fact led many
to believe some time ago that the to-
tal yield would be above the average,
although few anticipated such a re-
cord-breaking Drop, the world over, as
is now calculated by well-known sta-
tisticians.
The most recent of these estimiftes is
that compiled by Mr. Broomhall, the
editor of the Liverpool Corn Trade
News, a recognized authority both in
this country and in Europe, and his
figures display the stimulating ef-
fect that the recent high prices of
wheat has had on the acreage sown
this season in all countries. A care-
ful study of his figures shows that in
calculating the total crops of each
year he has departed from the usual
method and has taken for his purpose
the crops grown in the second half of
the years named. In the case of those

WOMEN OF COREA.
Writing of Corea, Mrs. Bishop, the
traveler, says: "in Corea you never
see girls out of doors in the daytime,
except soma of the lower classes going
to the wells, and they are tied up so
that no one can see them. Women
only go out in the capital of Corea
when a great bell sounds in the even-
ing. When this is beard all men must
retire to their houses. The only men
who may go, out are those who are
blind and those wbo are going to a
druggist's with a prescription. And as
men are deceivers the world over, it
is not surprising that a great many
men are 'blind,' and that many have
to go to the 'druggist's' when evening
comes. Indeed, the number 'of hypo-
orites who go about taping with a
etiok is rather ludicrous.'

HOUSEHOLD CARES.
he has relegated the crops grown in.
the current year to the previous year;
for example, the Argentine crop which
was ready for marketing in January,
1898, he has reckoned in the crop. of
the season 1897-98, believing that the
disadvantages in so doing are less than
in reckoning the crops as still available
which were all consumed prior to the
opening of the current season. The
same thing has been done with Uru-
guay, Chili, Australasia andlndia, the
crops of whioh were ready in the first
three menthe of the year ; thus in ar-
riving at a total for the year 1898 he
has had to be oontent with estimates
of the growing crops. In each of these
eases he has allowed for rather over
a full average crop except in the case
of Australasia, which is so far advance.
ed as to be calculated more exactly.
On this continent alone the increase in
the crop is extraordinary, the total
this year reaching 54,000,000 bushels,
or 12,000,000 bushels more than the pre-
vious biggest yielo; enough to provide
an exportable surplus of over 24,000,-
000 bushels. Other totals are equally
surprising, and the grand total for the
world's crop of 2,007,000,000 bushels,
compared with '',270,700.000 last year,
or an increase of 336,300,00a bushels,
is sufficient guarantee that the world
is in no danger of a famine juet at
present.
The crop of the United States has
been calculated at 650,000,000 bushels,
a total that Is stated by many author-
ities on this side to be too low, but in
every ease the figures are conserva-
tive. Russia, from which country com-
plaints have recently been heard of
drought is still calculated as having
produced 24,000,000 bushels, or includ-
ing Poland and Cauoasia, which do not
come ei�der the head of Russia pro-
per, 206,000,800 bushels compared witb

WONDERING WIIIt SHE DID.
'-. Wonlan, When I+oiimarwled me, `you
got a wonder 4
'ii'os, and I have been wondering over
since.
Harder t0 hear, her. Hilltops Thinks, Than
the Business Cares of Alen.
"We all have our Dares," said Mr.
Bilitops, "men and women alike ; but
I don't know but what women's cares
are a little harder to bear than men's.
There is a deadly monotony about
household Dares that does not pertain
to the cares of ,business.
"The man may lead a routine life,
year after year, the same thing over
and over again ; he may go daily year
after year to the same office, store or
shop, butothe mere going back and
forth gives him some Variety. He
goes through the streets with their
constantly chtieging life ; he meets
many people daily ; he may not know
any of them, but it does him good to
meet them ; they give him new impres-
aione and freshen him up. fle may
see the same scenes daily, but they
cannot be always alike and he must
get more or less benefit from their
ever -varying phases.
"But the monotony of a woman's life
is far less likely to be varied even in
such 'ways. The man must go out to
earn the money to buy bread with; the
woman's work is in the house, and her
constant tendency is to stay there
more and more. Her work is there
and all the time it increases and ac-
cumulates, and she buckles down to
it and goes out less and less. The
routine, becomes allthe time more fix-
ed and unvarying, and she slicks to
it, day after day and week after week
and year after year, the same thing
over and over again, until it becomes so
irksome that it ie hard to bear.
"Breakfast, luncheon and dinner, or
breakfast, dinner and tea, whatever
the routine of the house may be, there
is no change. The question, 'What
shall we have for dinner ?' simple as
that may seem, may easily become a
bugbear; and the meal times recur
more and more swiftly. The mere
labor of looking after the food is great,
and to that is added the darning
and the me.nding that must be done,
and the cleaning and the dusting, all
on fixed days and at fixed hours, else
they would.n't be done.
"I imagine that household cares, wo-
men's cares, in the routine of life are
more burdensome and harder to becr
than men's carol. And what is the
man's duty in this case. Why, it's to
give his wife some relief from this rou-
tine. Take her to the theatre or to
some concert or any form of enter-
tainment. Homely form of relief f
So; but astonishingly good, and it will
do you good, too."
have differed considerably of late,
ranging from 839,000,000 to 881,000 -
000 bushels, but here again. Mr. Broom -
hall strikes an average, his estimate
being 352,000,000, compared with 248;-,
000,000, the unusually poor crop of last
year. Taking European countries alone,
we find tbat the totals exceed those of
last year, by 235,500,000 bushels; the
principal increases, apart from those
already mentioned, being in Italy, 40,-
000,000; In Roumanda, 23,000,000 ; in
Hungary, 19,000,000; and in the United
Kingdom 9,000,000. The only European
countries which tall below last year's
totals are Spain, 10,000,000; Germany;
7,000,000 ; Portugal 2,000,000, and Swe-
den, 800,000.
In America the United States shows
s gain of 50,000,000 • Canada, 11,000000;
and Argentina, 10,000,000, while Mex-
ico, Chili end Uruguay also show
slight gains, the total amounting to
88,003,000 bushels over last year. In
Asia we find the only real falling off,
titd WIC being 312,000,000 against 332,-
000,000. Turkby In Asia and India are
the two principal delinquents, the for-
mer producing 10,000,000 and the lat-
ter 8,000,000 bushels loss than last
year. Africa shows gains all along
the line. iAlgeria, Tunis, Egypt and
the Cape all helping to form the in-
crease of 12,000,000 bushels with which
she is credited.
Although the world is confronted
with the largest wheat erop ever pro-
duced, it must not be immediately
conclude that the statistical position
of wheat is very bearish, for other
considerations have to be taken into
account. The present crop bas been
preceded by three years of comparative-
ly small crops, and reserves have been
drawn upon to such an extent to fill
the deficiency caused by an under-
production that they are now acknow-
ledged to be ut the lowest point re-
corded for years.
Unfortunately it is impossible to ob-
tain exact figures of the world's stocks
there being no means of accurately
knowing what the invisible supplies
atnount to, butin estimating the ac-
tual reserves on the let day of August
this year . at 112,000,000 bushels Mr.
Bromhall is probably somewhat near
the mark. Adding this total to
THE WORLD'S CROP,
we find that the total supply of wheat
available during the cereal year 1897-
98,amounts to 2,719,000,000 bushels. Fol-
lowing the same course with the re-
cords of previous years we find that
In 1895 the total crop of wheat was
2,420,100,000 bushels and the reserves
296,000.000, making a total of 2,710,-
100,000 bushels or very olose to this
year's total, while in 1894, the banner
year, although the prop was less than
this year's amounting to 2,588,900E000,
yet the reserves amounted to 328,000,-
000, making a total available supply of
2,916,900,000 bu. or a larger supply by
107,900,000 bushels than we have now.
Looking at it in another way we find
that the total crops of the four
last yearn are smaller by 348,400,000
bubsels than the crops of the four pre-
ceding years, and that the average crop
of i he past four years is 2,415,000,000,
compared with 2,501,400000i the av-
erage crop of the preceding four years.
Since 1894 the population of the
world has been increasing el the rate
Of 6,000,000 people a year, according to
Sir \Villialn Crookes, and thus, com-
paring the present situation with
that in 1894, we find that with 197,000,-
003 bushels less available, we have a
population 24,000,000 larger to feed.
It stands to rearm, therefore, that
there Is no reason for prices to go hook
to the level of 1804, and present in-
dications are that femora the world

Of his fleecy sheep and his full-blooded
sows.
He thought of the work of his hands

It took these traits in his pets to train;

and day
To make good breeds that would al-
ways pay.

That was out in the yard singing just
then;

breed,

weed, 1, t d
But nevertheless she had bought and
paid 1 ,
For the cloth of which his pants were
made,
She often furnished full half his meal
For if he didn't get eggs he'd be sure
to squeal,
His hat she furnished the eggs to buy,
And I am not sure but she bought his
tie,
His shoes which were of the very
Caine also
best, from old biddy's neat.
Just then his wife came out with a
Filled°anhalf full with corn meal and
bran,
She gave the hen a gill or two, -
Saying, "My good old friend, how are
youi"'
The farmer looked up in a dreamy way
And with a scrowl on his face began
to say,
"Those old hens don't begin to pay,
For they do nothing but eat and lay."
These last two words were spoken by
his wife,
Who had worked with poultry all her
life,
Said she, "Look here, they're our boat
friend,
For they furnish all the money we have
to spend."
She showed him bow the mortage was
paid,
By the many eggs that biddy had laid,
"Well, we'll get a new breed next
year,"
He said as he kissed his wife so dear.
Responsible for Catarrhal Condition of the
Nose, Throat and Brenahtal robes.
Many persons are puzzled to notice
that while in summer they are com-
fortable, even while sitting out-of-
doors, in a temperature of seventy de-
grees or less, they frequently find the
same temperature insufficient in-
doors in winter, notwithstanding they
are then inuch more warmly dressed.
The fact is that the moisture or dry-
ness of the air greatly affects the sen-
sible temperature—the temperature,
that is, as it seems to be. In the ede-
serts of Arabid, where the air is at
once extremely hot and extremely dry,
the winds are often unpleasantly cold.
Hot, dry air has the quality of absor-
bency in a very high degree. The
heated arid winds from the Sahara are
said to absorb the waters of the Medi-
terranean like a sponge, and at the
same time the rapid evaporation cools
the surface of the water.
The air from furnaces and steam -
pipes, if unduly dry, absorbs moisture
from whatever surface it touclits. By
virtue of its absorbency tie surface of
the body, and in greater degree the
membrane lining the nose, throat and
bronchial tubes, suffer from the rapid
evaporation of moisture, and lose beat
in the process.
Experiments by different observers
have demonstrated a marked difference
between the actual and the sensible
temperatures of roome heated by fur-
naces and steam -pipes without the ad-
dition of moisture artificially intro-
duced. Frequently a difference of at
least twenty degrees has been noticed.
A hygrometer, moistured to the same
degree as the average human skin, has
repeatedly shown a temperature many
degrees below the actual air tempera-
ture, both in public buildings and in
private houses.
In winter the warmth of the kitchen
Is often more grateful than that of
other rooms in which the temperature
is as high, but in which there is no
steaming teakettle to moisten the air.
There is no question regarding the
baneful influence of bot, dry air in the.
production of catarrhal conditions of
the nose, throat and bronchial tubes.
It has been suggested that diphtheria
owes in part its common occurence to
the present imperfect methods of heat-
ing school -houses. The dryness of the
air produces a condition of the throat
upon which the disease is easily en-
grafted.
An easy method of furnishing mois-
ture consists in the conduction of a
thin stream of steam into the^heated
air. This may be done by exposing
wide vehsels filled with water in the
air -boxes of furnaces, or by more ela-
borately planned sprays, made effec-
tive by the introduction into the
bot air pipes of evaportated surfaces
composed of cotton fibre.
SINGULAR RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
One of the most singular of railway
accidents was that near Genoa ley
which a dozen lives were recently lost,
The Giori Tunnel, in which it oeourred,
is very long, and ao foul that the win-
dows are shut, leaving the paeeengere
to keep alive on what air is already
In the car. But the engineers have no
such support, and the accident was
caused by the fact that ail t drivers
and firemen on the,tliree en nes need-
ed to haul the train up the avy grade
of the tunnel were a8 by ated. The
train consequently slim) d bask and
plunged into a p owing train at the
bottom of t incline.

It is the remarkably early and re-
markably late crops that return the
profit in strawberry .culture.
Care in grading the fruits pays bet-
ter with the strawberries than with
any other crop. Make three grades in
prices and in quality of fruit, The re-
sults will be gratifying.
Use only neat, clean packages of
full size.
Crop failures are less frequent with
strawberries than with any other
small fruit.
Good plants. carefully set, well tend-
ed, and the fruits marketed in attrac-
tive
ttracttive packages, are sure to return the
grower satisfaction.
For general plantations select odly
well tried sorts. Varieties are local.
Hence, failure is more likely to result
from dabbling largely in novelties
than from any other single cause.
Test the novelties in a small way. Do
not venture a year's return upon an
untried sort.
The best berry is that which posses-
ses attractive appearance with ship.

ness, and general vigor of plant.
Southern exposures with quick soil
and light mulch, if any, for early crop.
A north hillside and heavy mulch for

Never use old sodland for a straw-
berry patch.
PRTJNING CURRANTS.
The main object in pruning currant
bushes is to properly develop every
portion of the plant. To obtain this, it
is necessary to cut out occasionally the
old wood and shorten the most vigor-
ous of the young growth. One-half
dozen large vigorous shoots will give
more and larger fruit than twice that
number of wreak and immature ones.
TIMELY THOUGHTS.
Many persons have the idea that life
on the farm is very monotonous. It
never was so to me and no place has
the attraction for me that the farm
has, writes Mr. F. H. Dow.
If the day's work be hard, which it
often is, it is sweet to look forward
a few hours to the pleasant evening
that is before us, at the fireside, when
all the family have got together and
books waiting to be read. Evenings
on the farm should always be a very
pleasant season.
•The farmer should read and study
more to make his farm more produc-
tive and home -like. Indeed, to rulea
farm properly, its owner has this for
encouragement : That the more he ex-
ercises his brains, the dearer the farm
will be to him and the more remun-
erative it will become. Every field,
every crop, and every animal on the
farm, requires study. In fact, every
object that the farmer observes while
working in his field may be made a
subject for study.
The margin of profit is so small on
the farm at the present time that it
is necessary to study economy in all
methods of cultivation ; and to do this
we must of necessity, have good imple-
ments. It costs quite a moderate sum
of money to equip a farm with a first-
class set of implements; but when a
farmer buys a tool of any kind- he
should be careful to purchase that
which will be the most satisfactory as
regards durability and quality of work.
performed.
After a farmer gets an implement,
he should see to it that it is kept hous-
ed excpet when in actual use. Drive
wherever we will we may see many
hundreds of dollars worth of farm im-
plements standing out of doors, where
they stay month after month. In-
deed, many tools are never under shel-
ter from the time the farmer purchas-
es them until they are used up. Now •
this, to say the least, is 'a very bad
and destructive way of handling them.
If farmers can not afford to put up
a good substantial tool house, they can
at least build a cheap shed to protect
their implements from the weather.
