the corn is now held for feeding, and, anyway, farmers are too busy to bring it in. We are paying $2.75 for No. 1 wheat, J2.45 per hundred for corn, and ?li)8 per bushel for oats." Mr. Stock thinks they will at least raise a half wheat crop, but states
"We shall have more than the regu-1 lar oats acreage because of that. Some ! of our oats were sown late in March j

Australian Act Shows Fallacy of Hope For Any Cheaper Grain in 1920 By W. R. SANBORN.
The Australian wheat board recently asked England to be relieved of shipping 1,500,000 tons of wheat, but England demands the grain, as agreed. The reason for Australian action is the fear that if they ship this grain
rthey may have to import wheat before
rthe 1921 harvest. Australia can easily supply its own
wants, as it Is a large exporter, but three short crops in succession have greatly decreased the exportable surplus. West Australia has refused to contribute its share. We cite this as showing the need for all the food grains we can possibly grow. The world needs them and those who have been hoping for lower
I grain and flour when the new crop is marketed, are likely to be badly disI appointed. Flour advanced to $16 at Minneapolis, on Thursday, an advance of $2 per j barrel in 30 days. This does not indiI cate cheaper wheat nor cheaper flour ', in the near future.
TOBACCO ACREAGE WILL BE INCREASED, PREDICTION LEXINGTON, Ky., May 7. Acreage of the United States to be devoted this ; year to tobacco raising probably will increase by about 10 per cent over ;1919. says a review made public by -the department of markets, University of Kentucky. "Kentucky will change the least in acreage of any of the great tobacco producing states," the review recites, while indications are that crop acreage will be increased from 10 to 14 per cent in the Carolinas and Virginia and about 500 per cent In Georgia." Concerning the world tobacco situation, the report, which is based on information from authoritative domestic and foreign sources, says foreifm acreage seems to have increase! very little over 1919, but condition of the crop is greatly improved, and this indicates there should be a considerable increase in production. Reciting that at this time a year ago there were vast quantities held in the United States, the bulletin declares that this year about equal, if not great er, stocks are held in the country.

Having wintered 1,500 White Leghorns, he is now getting eggs galore, and these Wayne county eggs are being served where there is a demand for freshness and uniformity in color, regardless of their cost. One-Fourth Wheat Crop Will Lewis, cashier of the First National bank at Williamsburg, says that from reports coming in, and from personal observation, he is inclined to estimate a one-fourth wheat crop for their township. "Farmers are all at work," said he, "getting ready for corn, and very few have been in town this week. I know, however, of a lot of wheat being plowed up. Some fields look fairly well and show some improvement, but, as a whole, we shall have but little wheat this year." Mr. Lewis says that all oats are planted. He does not recall any good crops of oats which were planted after April 15, but says that it may pay many to plant oats as late as early May because they should at least get a "crop of hay worth cutting. Possibly some corn has been planted, but the real planting will begin next week."

HEADED BACK TO THE SOIL FROM CHICAGO Six married men with families and 15 single men, many of them strikers, signed up for farm jobs on Wednesday at Chicago. A laundry wagon driver, making $225 per month, said: "Having worked on a farm I know that most

creased yield is the fact that the supply of humus, and therefore the supply of available plantfood, was more nearly maintained in the rotation on manured fields. On the field where fans manure was applied there was a margin of
53 bushels per acre above the cost of growing, estimating the cost at 25 bushels per acre. At 40 cents j per bushel (the average market price
of corn when the experiment was made) there was a cash profit of $21.20 an acre On the second field, where no manure was applied, there was a margin of only 26 bushels of corn above the cost of growing, or a profit of $10.40 an acre.

Why a pigeon died on a diet of white bread
And how this shows that many everyday foods
lack vital health -building elements
r
' N THE course of experiments to find
the health - buildine, streneth - eivinjr
value of our everyday foods, a scientist
of note placed a healthy pigeon on a diet of white bread. The
pigeon soon lost weight and reached a point of total starvation. These same experiments went on until they included placing normal people on various diets. Then the amazing truth came to light that the real reason for nervousness, anaemia and tha: general run down
feeling, was Decause our everyday foods do not contain certain elements necessary for health and strength. It was found that in the preparation of most everyday foods a nourishing substance called vitamines had been destroyed. Scientists were staggered to find that these vitamines were absolutely essential to give your body its proper nourishment and your nerve tissues the necessary renewing forces. The reason why you lack energy and strength, even though you eat heartily and digest normally was at last established once and for all.
Science has found why you lack energy SCIENCE wanted to know why so many people lacked energy and were weak and anaemic even though they ate heartily, digested normally and xercised properly. The amazing truth came to light that many everyday foods have lost a nourishing substance called vitamines which are necessary for full health, strength and energy. Read how science now supplies the vitamines.
i
Then the scientists turned to finding a way to supply the vitamines that your system must have to hold you up under the drain and strain of your daily work and to give you the energy
and strength not only to do the day's work but to enjoy the evening as you should. After long research and much experiment, a means was discovered for preparing healthbuilding vitamines in a concentrated tablet form. This scientific preparation is now available to the public for the first time under
the name of Vitamon. It is obtainable at all good drug stores.
F YOU start and finish the day with a
fagged-out feeling, if you lack the pep
to do a good day' s work and ' enjoy the evening, if you show all the symptoms of being anaemic, run-down, weak and nervous use this product of modern science to help restore you to full health, strength and energy. So certain is the result of the scientists' work as brought forward in Vitamon that it is guaranteed if the results are not satisfactory your money will be refunded.
