fall and winter Is considered to depend upon continua tion of the present Industrial boom in cities The domestic market for farm prod ucts Is reported to have improved measurably as a result of increased prosperity In urban communities the review said but the prospective for eign demand for American farm prod ucts Is not so good as it was a year ago labor is fully employed and wages high" the review continued products find a readier sale and better prices This is what helped to sustain the price of hogs this spring likewise lambs cattle dairy products eggs and certain vegetables Is

city and on it a two story shop scratched his head "1 guess one's been building there" he sure had no right to build on my lot without my leave i guess they'll have to go when 1 get ready to He was doing better with the little farm and estimated that he had many years of work ahead of him And it wus about this time that an idea came uuo mini: tie wouic make tlie lot a monument to Polly He decided after much thought that when mous the called him very happy and Ing his potatoes A few years later city he found that the lot was in heart of the business region The shop had gone in its place stood an office building of seven stories The click of typewriters could be iieard from all the windows Bentley stood in the street and grinned sure have a nerve setting up that place on my he said they'll feel pretty mean when I give 'em notice to go But I want that site for hospital" His idea was to mortgage the lot which must by now be of incalculable value build the hospital witli the pro ceeds he had no idea of the cost of this and get it started trusting to luck and the good will of subscribers IV wjfwAU The tcieu had become more or less a monomania The farm was not doing so well nowadays The soil was worn out and Bentley was growing old and less able to work When he made his last trip to the city he had hardly anything but his few acres and the old working clothes lie stood in When lie reached the lot he stopped in amazement The business offices were gone for the town was now spreading in another direction in tlieir place stood a magnificent building with a white marble entrance or a moment or two old Bentley had misgivings have to go" he muttered can't take my lot away from me have to And then he discovered that the great building was a hospital He saw nurses at the windows patients in tlieir beds looking out into the street Everything was as lie had dreamed but someone had anticipated him It was Polly's hospital' The realiza tion of the dream' sent a sudden rush of blood to Ills head Bentley stag gered threw out his arms and dropped unconscious to the sidewalk A young Interne who was coming out saw the crowd that gathered around the unconscious man and hur riecl to his side He saw that Bentley had been struck down by apoplexy He called the porter and they carried him inside put to bed or days por out of come dimly and the doctor we find out who the old
