The most calamitous of these los- ses have fallen to men who tried to estabscale hon which h a corner they have and t e wheat; operated has been almost beyond belief. When, for example, a well-known firm in the late seventies tried to get the wheat market into their own hands, the quantity of wheat dealt in in a single day was nearly twice as much as the United Kingdom PRODUCES IN A YEAR. Its weight was 2,800,000 tons, and a train long enough to transport it would easily reach from London to Constantinople; while its value was over $140,000,000. The attempt failed, however, and thespeculationis said to have re- sulted in a loss of over £2,000,000. Even T1r, Mackay, the well-known millionaire and one of the shrewdest of business men, burnt his Seegers badly when he touched wheat eleven years ago. Although his operations were on a comparatively erodes t scale, involving less than 10,000,- 000 0,000;000 bushels, he lust $2,500,000 more quickly than he ever made it, even hi his palmiest days of moneymalc- g. tnI]]Ir. Joseph Leiter's sensational deals in wheat three years ago are still comparatively fresh in the mem- ory. Buying quickly, he soon found himself the owner of 10,000,000 bushels, while the price was mount- ing higher and higher every day. Fast as he bought the wheat poured in by millions of tons. until els re- sources were exhausted long before he had paid for all tete wheat pur- chased. At this stage his father came to his assistance with his mil- lions, and young Leiter's stock of wheat grew to nearly 30,000,000 bushels, and his father even began to bo alarmed at the magnitude of his son's daring. Still the supplies 'of purchased wheat came in unceasingly, with daily demands for payment of enor- mous sums, until, his father desert- ing him, he was compelled to aban- don the effort and throw some of his wheat ON TEE MARKET. b'lYjepfr.11'A,f'om'Lddwo4 UN TSE FARC.

Briilnnas can be well recommended for the average farm, and as a man remarked the other day, a "good flock of them are as profitable as a herd of cattle." This man had been dressing his well grown Brahmas and selling them at 12 to 14 cents per pound. His hens well all winters and. eggs d also ewe lay- ing commanding a high price, Brahmas can stand a good deal of cold weather and still do pretty well. Of course they respond to goof treatment and show it in the increased yield of eggs or more rap- id growth of flesh, and it will pay to take good care of them, but if it is necessary they can stand their share of hard usage. I like a 'farm for Brahmas on ac- count of the variety of available food and the good scratching facili- ties, there usually being plenty of straw about the barns and sheds in which the hens scratch and hunt all day. This keeps them out of the mud and dirt and their legs and feet stay in much better condition. The heavy leg -feathered breeds cannot stnd as much dirt as the clean -leg- ged breeds. This will not show only In winter. In summer, when they are running in the fields and grass lands they are all right, and there are few prettier sights than a flock of Brahmas half and two-thirds grown in an orchard, or woodland. Brahmas lay well on the farm. They generally exercise enough to keep down fat and the various grains they get are conductive to health and a goodly yield of eggs. They are not afraid to lay in winter eith- er, when eggs are eggs. They also know what eggs were laid for and can hatch and raise chickens with the best of thele. Of the two varieties of Brah- mar, the light and the dark, the for - neer are kept by many people, while but a few, comparatively speaking, of the latter variety are kept. There is no good reason for this, as there is no difference in economic quali- ties between the varieties, and if there is any odds it should be in fa• von of the darks, as they do not soil readily in cities or places where fowls are apt to get dirty. A well- bred Dark Brahma is certainly a fine fowl and it is a pity thaw could not take the place of a Minion or so dunghill fowls scattered over this state. If you want a good fowl to help make the farm pay you should give Brahmas a trial. This, of course, was a signal for the collapse of prices, and within half an hour he had lost 51,000,000, and in two hours half a million pounds had vanished. Fortunately at this stage some wealthy financiers came to his rescue and stemmed the tide of ruin that was overwhelming him. But before he was free from the entanglement he and his friends had lost within a measurable dis- tance of 510,000,000. Occasionally, but very rarely, these efforts to corner wheat have succeed- ed for a time; but the money so made has almost invariably been lost on a later venture of the same kind. E. P. Hutchinson, a. Chicago speculator, was one of the few men who have made a fortune out of a corner in wheat. Thirteen years ago he accumulated nearly 30,000,000 bushels and was able to unload most of it at a profit of 7s. a bushel, a deal which brought hint a profit of many millions of pounds. Within a few years, however, he lost every penny of his fortune and clled a poor Man. And a similar fate overtook a once famous speculator called Handy, who made an immense fortune out of a corner in wheat in one year, only to loseit and more by a similar ven- ture in the year following.
