If all the,, farm woodlands could be combined they would form one vast forest of 191,000,000 acres. This is approximately two-fiftof the, entire forest area of the country. East of the Mississippi the farm woodlands cover 45 per cent of all the forests. The farmers have scarcely begun to systematically develop and use these timbered lands, although they consume 46 per cent of all the' wood consumed in this coup try. Agriculture is the greatest of our wood-usinindustries. Opportunity Overlooked; ' ,v ' r Taken as a whole it is an immense item that agricultural interests are overlooking, say officials of the forest service, United States Department of Agriculture, who have made a study of the countrys forest resources, The annual growth of timber possible on farm woodlots has been estimated at 8,500,000,000 board feet of material suitable for lumber, staves, boxes, etc., and 114,000,000 cords of fuel wood. In other words, if properly cared for the farm woodlands could ,l, produce more than the entire quantity of fuel now consumed by the farmers and 81 per cent of the lumber boxes, barrels, etc., now used by them. J ' Too often the size of the farm wood-lo- t, the material it contains, and its value to the farm are left entirely to chance. The farmers problem is to determine what parts of his land are 'suited to wood rather than other crops and to develop these portions for wood crops just as he would develop land for other crops. The farmer in many of the lake states and the South is in-- , dined to let his woodland be merely the unimproved land in his holdings. Its soil may or may not be inferior for field crops. In the Central States many woodlands occupy undrained land which comprises some of the best soil in the region. In the Eastern States, particularly in New England, farm woodlands are being extended through reversion of hill pastures and the like to forests. In this latter region, and to a more limited extent in the other ' regions, there is an opportunity to grow commercial crops of timber in relatively short periods for such products as pulp wood, box lumber, telephone poles and railway ties. To Market Wood Products. In many communities a marketing organization of the farmers is suggested by the United States Department of Agriculture as a practical means of selling woodland In other instances indiproducts. vidual sales prove more satlsfac- tory. The farmer who is interested in finding a market for this crop should ascertain what prices the mills and wood working industries in his region will offer. This applies to sales requiring shipments as well as to local sales. It is advisable also to Inquire from neighbors who have recently disposed of their timber, 90 as to profit by their experiences. Local timber demands should not be overlooked, as often local markets will 'pay better prices than outside markets because of the saving in transportation charges. If the farmer has more than a small amount of wood products to sell it will be well for him to advertise in mediums that will secure outside competl- Won for his material.

A disappointment manfully borne enlists the popular sympathy, and the author of the McKinley bill entered the contest for the presidential nomination in 1896 as one who had suffered martyrdom in the cause of the protective tariff. After teaching school a term or so, McKinley was called in the Civil war, that hard university which graduated the men who were to lead the nation through four decades.' Having gone into the army as . a private in the regiment of another president-to-b- e Rutherford B. Hayes he came out at twenty-tw- o a captain, with, the brevet title of major. .Becoming a lawyer at Canton, O., again he found himself in the midst of industries In their struggling infancy. And for 14 years he was the spokesman in congress of that industrial district. The young major, when he came to Canton, was a clean-cu- t, figure, genial in his nature, but with a sober dignity. His readiness of speech, when bn his feet, came from his practice of the art in the debating societies of his school days. His habits also had been properly formed in his boyhood when he joined the Methodist church at ten and grew up a youth who was as careful to keep his tongue as his collar clean. All doors in the little town naturally swung open with a welcome to such a nice young man, and a maAlthough he was yet jor to boot. poor, when Ida Saxton, the bankers daughter, who had been to school in New York city and who had just come back from Europe, smiled yes to him, while they were taking a buggy ride the banker smiled, .too, and made them a wedding gift of one of the test houses in Canton.. It was from the front porch of that honeymoon dwelling that McKinley made his campaign for the presidency in 1896. McKinleys Js one of the best and one of the most pathetic love stories in the domestic records of the presidency. With the birth of her second child, the wife was left an invalid. The death of both of her children within five years of her wedding day utterly overwhelmed her nervous organization, and her shattered health remained thenceforth the constant object of her husbands tender care'. Although he never could know from minute to minute when she would pass Into a swoon, he made her his companion on his travels. Once when he hurried home from congress, and the physicians had given up hope of saving her, his own ministrations and hts prayers through a long night at bedside recalled her to life.

The moisture content of wheat, the percentages of dockage and of other foreign materials present, the extent of damage, if any, and the test weight per bushel all are factors which closely limit the commercial value of wheat. There is no reason why the producer of Inferior wheat should expect to receive as much as the careful farmer who has a high-teweight, low produced moisture content wheat which Is practically free from foreign matter other than dockage, say grain experts of the bureau of markets, United States department of agriculture. Many of the country elevator operators have installed grading equipment for the purpose of purchasing all wheat upon the basis of grade. Yet purchase by grade Is of but little value unless the grades 'are fairly administered, and country buyers are urged to equip themselves with standard equipment snch as that used by the licensed and federal inspectors. Fairness to all In the handling of grain turns on the purchase of grain according to Its actual worth, and not upon the mine mn" basis.

The,high cost of seeding has been perhaps the principal factor in preventing its general use. Specialists hold out no hope for cheap seed, but they assert that the advantages of the crop are sufficient to justify its planting even at high cost. This is particularly true, they say, In the states bordering on the Great Lakes and in most of the Atlantic and Gulf coast states.

Despite all these advantages, hairy vetch is not one of the major forage crops. The acreage is far below that of several others of less value. Forage specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture say that' this crop could be profitably grown on a great many more farms. Hajry vetch, with all its excellent qualities, is not without some objectionable features. Perhaps the most serious is that it will not stand upright without support. As a hay crop, therefore, it must be planted with rape d or some other crop.

In a private letter, the Spanish minister at Washington scoffed at the president aa a politicastro in plain American, a peanut politician and plainly intimated L.at the fair promises which the Spaniards were giving him were only a trick to fool the administration and the American people. Within a week of that exposure, the battleship Maine was blown up in Havana harbor, with the loss of 266 American lives.
