WEALTH BY BILLIONS
VALUE OF FARM PRODUCTS FOR
THE YEAR 1907.
WHAT THE EARTH PRODUCES
Agriculturalists Have It In Their
Power to Curtail the Operation of
Trusts and Prevent Unequal
Distribution of Money.
Farms of the United States In 1907
will produce more wealth than all the
gold mines of the world have produc
ed in 20 years. Conservative estimates
place the value of all farm products at
approximately $7,000,000,000, or about
$200,000,000 more than their value in
1906. The farmer is the magician, the
alchemist, that makes use of nature to
enrich the world. The farmers' corn
crops alone average a billion dollars
a year, and all the other cereals an
other billion, with cotton, tobacco, hay
and flax worth another billion, and the
fruits, garden truck and animals a few
billions more. Thus it can be seen that
the farmer, produces wealth greater
than taken from it by the miners for
its precious gems and minerals. There
is no other foundation for the wealth
and business of the world other than
the land. Men cannot eat gold; the
coal <s only useful to him as a means
of utilizing what the earth grows;
there is nothing in the mineral world
that will sustain life, or anything that
is necessary unless mortals eat, drink
and wear clothes. When there is
abundance of agricultural productions,
there are prosperous times, and a fam
ine when the opposite occurs. The
whole financial fabric, the entire com
mercial system, is dependent upon the
farmer, and his work.
One billion dollars is an amount be
yond the comprehension of the aver
age man. The life of an individual is
not sufficiently long to count it cent
by cent should he work ten hours a
day, from his tenth year until death.
This is the average value of the corn
crop alone that the farmers of the
United States produce yearly.
One would believe that if only a
small portion of the vast wealth,
which the farmers produce could be
only retained in the agricultural com
munities, there would be a class of
rich men greater than in any commer
cial community. Yet statistics show
that for the amount of wealth yearly
produced, the farmers are retainers of
only a small portion of it. The tend
ency is toward concentration of
wealth in great financial centers. It is
in these places, and by the control of
this great wealth, that trusts are built
up, and the machinery put in opera
tion that systematically draws from
the agricultural sections the great
wealth produced. Farmers can, if they
will, bring about a change by a sim
ple adherence to the home trade prin
ciple; by patronage of local business
institutions instead of the concerns in
the large cities. D. M. CARR.
Fruit Dumpling.
Sift one pint of flour, one-half tea
spoonful of salt, and two teaspoonfuls
of baking powder; rub in one heaping
tablespoonful of butter and mix into a
stiff dough with three-fourths of a
cupful of milk. Toss the dough onto
a well-floured board, knead it slightly
and roll out one-third of an inch thick.
Cut into rounds with a large cutter.
Put half of a pared peach in the cen
ter of each, draw the dough up over
the peach and roll carefully in the
hand until the folds have disappeared
and it is smooth and round like a ball.
Butter the perforated pan in a steam
er, arrange the dumplings on it so
that they will not touch, cover tightly
and steam 20 minutes. Serve with
fruit sauce. Rub one-fourth of a cup
ful of butter to a cream, add gradual
ly one cupful of powdered sugar and
beat until light and frothy, then beat
in gradually one cupful of sliced
peaches. Set in a cool place till hard.
Serve the same as hard sauce.

The Ills peculiar to women, take different forms.
Some ladies suffer, every month, from dark rings round their eyes, blotches on their skin and tired
feeling. Others suffer agonies of pain, that words can hardly express.
Whatever the symptoms, remember there is one medicine that will go beyond mere symptoms, and
act on the cause of their troubles, the weakened womanly organs.

FOR THE HOME TOWN
Re a “booster” for your home town.
Bv patronizing other than local insti
tutions you are using a boomerang
that is likely to fly back and do you
injury when you least expect it. No
one can be an ideal citizen and talk
and work against the interests of his
home town. So long as you are a resi
dent of a community, do your part,
towards assisting it to greater
progress.
f
Those who are opposed to the evils
of capital concentration, the building
up of trusts that work against the in
terests of the masses, should consider
the fact that any and every system
of business that depletes a section of
the country of the wealth it produces
strengthens the system of business
and financial concentration. One of
the most baneful systems that at. the
present is working against the inter
ests of the smaller cities and towns,
and is the greatest medium of drain
ing wealth from agricultural communi
ties, is the mail-order plan of doing
business. From some rural towns
from 40 to 50 per cent, of the trade
goes to foreign concerns. If this trade
were confined to the home town, its
business would be doubled, employ
ment given to twice as many people;
the profits accruing from mercantile
business would seek local investment,
and within a few years the population
of the town would be more than dou
bled, and all living within the district
would be benefited.
Every kind and class of goods have
a real value, and this value is based
upon the cost of the raw material, the
price of the labor in producing it, and
i the cost of distribution. Whenever
there are big bargains offered in any
line, and. goods offered “below value,”
be careful and see that you are not
getting an inferior article.
While the farmer may receive a
dozen papers from the large cities, he
invariably reads his local paper. It
is to the interest of the farmer as well
as the merchant that the latter use
its columns freely to tell of the latest
prices, goods freshly received, etc.
j The farmer wants to buy, and the
merchants want to sell, and the farm
er will buy when and where he can
save money. The merchant who lets
business go away t from his town
through lack of advertising rightly is
! not a very enterprising business man
I -
| It is well to be on guard when deal
ing with itinerent agents, sellers ol
groceries, carriages, machinery, pat
; ent rights, etc. It is a pretty good ides
to never take grab-bag chance wher
you wish to buy an article. See whai
you are purchasing before paying foi
I It.
FARM FACTS.
Give the brood-sows plenty of ex
i ercise. They won't hurt the pasture:
now.
There isn’t much doing on the farn
j these days, when the old cow and th<
j hen are taking a vacation.
We had some late corn fodder, which
we fed unshucked to the cows, thai
was hard to beat as a milk-producing
food.
Now we build air castles and farn:
on paper in the most scientific way;
after while we get to the real thing
and just do the best we can.
Better commence slopping the spring
pigs pretty soon. One month before
and two after farrowing are the mosi
important in the pig's career.
Marketable horses are selling a:
long prices, which is all right for the
farmer so long as the good mares are
not sacrificed.
A feeder asks if one shoat for each
steer is enough. I should prefer twe
or three when steers are on full feed
When you have plenty of hogs there is
nothing wasted, and you can clean ou
the bunks once a day.
Anticipating Age.
Why do people allow themselves t<
fret about getting old? There an
those who anticipate it and fear it ai
if it were the most melancholy fat<
that could befall one, and many o
them have never been really young ii
spirit.
And youth is more a matter o
spirit than it is of body. Enthusiasm
interest in everything, warmth o
heart and breadth of feeling, are tfc<
qualities that stand for youth.
