SWEDEN DOES HONOR r, true-blood- GOVERNMENT PRICE PREDICTIONS The department of the federal government appear to be particularly inept or unfortunate in their outgivings on the subject of sugar. It was a statement of the Department of Commerce on world supplies, or the interpretation given that statement by the newspapers, that led to a sharp advance in prices two years ago, resulting in a vast amount of public excitement and serious damage to sugar producers. Last year the forecast of a large increase in world production issued by the Department of Agriculture, though not attracting as much attention as the previous statement of the Department of Commerce, caused a sharp break on the Sugar Exchange. Apparently its effect was due largely to confusion resulting from the publication of the figures in short tons while the members of the sugar trade are mainly accustomed to having such statistics presented in long tons. Last week the Department of Agriculture issued another form of statement, apparently intended for the guidance of farmers in planning their crops for the coming season. &hile the statement rather carefully avoids advising growers to cut down the acreage devoted to sugar beets, the only conclusion that can be drawn from it is that beets do not promise a profitable return, and the report was immediately seized upon b papers habitually unfriendly to the to the beet sugar industry and played up with big headlines proclaiming that the United .Sates Department of Agriculture advised against any increase in sugar production. As to the soundness of this prediction put out from this source, TO FAMOUS SINGER Sweden 1ms rnised a great bronze statue of Jenny Lind, its famous sing-M- r, In the Iturgurden, the park In Stockholm, savs the Kausas City Star.

A book written in Latin in 1701 recorded the fact that the chest of a healthy person when tapped yielded a note like the stilled sound of a drum covered with u thick cloth. A French physician, Laennec, is said to have made the first use of the stethoscope. For years he was the vie tim of ill health and family troubles, but after the battle of Waterloo he made public the discovery that It was possible to listen to a persons chest with a stethoscope. He also wrote a book telling of all the human aliments it was possible to detect by means of this instrument. Sir William Hale White says that from this book arose the physician's habit of asking patients to pronounce when certain words like ninety-nine- " examining the chest.
