who making this a

what is said to be the rule
of Judge Shaw, of the Superior
Court bench, to line every de-

nobody's business what a man has

Corn is the
cereal crop. In some years it
rises to be chief of the world's
crops, surpassing quality
exceeding quantity both
wheat oats. The average corn
crop for past live years has
been bushels, and of
this crop about
cent is raised in the Western Hem
and almost exactly per
cent in the United States. Such
statistics by the Crop
Reporter, published by the United
States Department of Agriculture.
While an ungrounded prejudice
