According to statistics, Penn sylvania farmers raised last year 1170,415,840 worth of staple crops Excepting buckwheat, it is claim ed they received for eich pro duct a higher market price than the average selling rata in the United States. The yield per acre was greater than the coun try's average in every crop ex cept hay, buckwheat and potatoes With favorable conditions, the com .ng year '8 crops promise of a better record than this.

It has reached the point now that the large brewing companies in this State are purchasing all the hotels they can themselves. Where they have not bought them outright they have furnished money to other parties to do so.

During 1908, The Philadelphia Record printed nearly a million lines of display advertising in ex cess of that published by any other Philadelphia newspaper. This supremacy is due to the fact that The Record has a larger morning circulation than any other Philadelphia newspaper. The 8am e qualities of "Record" circulation that make the exploi tation of merchandise pay, make 'The Record" the ideal medium for summer esort advertising. The proprietors of resort hotels and summer boarding houses seeking patronage from Philadel phia and vicinity, should be rep resented in its advertising col umns. VA3 we were not able to get all the facts concerning the death of little June, the daughtei of Ed ward Mellott and wife last week, we desire to add the following: The name of the little girl is Le noraJune, and her age at the time of her death wis 7 years, 10 months, and 27 days. After she had eaten her supper she com plained of feeling so sleepy, and seemed sick. Her mother put the child to bed, and, although everything was done for her that loving parents could do, the spirit of the child was in a few minutes wafted back to the God who gave it She was a lovely child and will be greatly missed not only by her immediate fam ily, but by her little classmates in the Sunday school. . i Fannettsburg Burnt Cabins Osier c R.

More than 500,000 men and vomen are injured or killed in the industries annually in the United States, or one person ev ery minute. This industrial carnage costs the people of the country, direct ly and indirectly, over two and a half billions of dollars a sum larger than the nat onal debt. Such are the death tolls of in dustrial progress, which shows such a smiling face to those whose occupations involve no danger, but turns a ghastly coun tenance on those who worn in peril of their lives. Whoever doubts these figures, need only i ead the grim statistics to be convinced that modern in dustry is more fateful than war. In the Japanese-Russian war a total of 338,786 men were killed and wounded on both sides, not counting the losses in naval bat tles. In the same period in the Unit ed States alone the great army of American laborers, engaged in manufacturing and building op erations, suffered a loss -of 425, 000 killed and injured; 92,000 more lives were sacrificed to in dustrial progress in one year than during the greatest conflict of re cent times.
