MARKET REPORTS Daily Report Os Local And Foreign Markets ■■II ' Opening Grain Review 1 Chicago. Jan. 4—Trading on the Chicago board of trade opened the new year today with sentiment de-i cldedly bullish. Principal buying that boosled prices 2H to 3 cents at the start was credited to those predicting the $2.00 murk would be reached within six weeks. Small grains were inclined to follow the hading cereal. Surprising strength in Liverpool and crop complaints from the southern hemisphere added stimulus to I wheat buying. I The reduced crop estimate together with lighter receipts and strength in wheat gave corn a substantial boost. i Oats were higher in sympathy with other grains. / Provisions held firm without teatures.

At any rate, the December report of (lie activities of the Association shows that David J.' Mazelin. holder of last year's annual record, is in the lead fcr the month. His herd of five purebred Holsteins gave 4,406 pounds of milk which contained 168.2 pounds butterfat. and average of 33.6 pounds fat per cow. Sol Mosier, with his herd of 13 purebred Jerseys, pushed the leader for the month by registering an average of 32.3 pounds per cow, his total production being 419.4 pounds fat in 7,242 pounds milk. E. H. Kruetzman landed third place in herd average, with 29.5 pounds fat. Carl E. Amstutz, a new member, residing in Jefferson township, broke into the limelight by piloting his herd of 11 Holsteins to fourth plcae with an average of 29.3 pounds. Only nino of hi s eleven cows were in milk. I Orton Wheeler, Burkhart Ixdiman. A. Z. Smith ('. W. R. Schwartz, Jacob J Schwartz and Noah Rich finished their herds in the order named. Te average butterfat production for all cows in the Association was 24.1 pounds, which is almost double the average monthly

production of the average Indiana cow. "Pearl.” a purebred Holstein, owifed by Jacob J. Schwartz, was "high" cow for the month, she running up a total 'of 68.3 pounds fat. Three milkings daily were needed to draw the 2,44(1 pounds milk she gave during the 31 days. Otto D. Bleberick, a new member, who resides in Kirkland township, landed second and third places in point of individual production with "Queen" and "Spot,” they producing 60.7 and 55.6 pounds fat. respectively. Osia Von Guntenfed fourth high cow, sho increasing the food supply of the nation by 58.1 pounds butterfat. "Maxine,” who produced 516 pounds in the David J. Mazelin herd last year, was fif.h, with 56.2 poilnds, while a cow in the Noah Rich herd produced 51.3 poinds and won sixth place. f Carl E. Amstutz placed two cows in the "high ten,” they registering 51 and 50.7 pounds respectively. One of Sol Mosser’s Jerseys hit an even 50, while C. W. R. Schwartz’ herd contributed the tenth high cow, with 49.7 pounds fat. The ten big chows averaged 1,473 pounds milk (luring December, containing 55.5 pounds butterfat.
