Pricesof Speculative Wheat Continue to Soar Upward at a Lively Kate. Chicago "Shorts" Becoming Badly Frightened Corn Unsettled, tat Firmer Oats Higher and Ho? Prodncts Stronger. MONET, STOCKS AND BONDS. Easier Feeling in the Street Gives a Dull bat Firm Market. NEW YOKK, Oct. 7. Money on call was asy, ranging from 3 to 0 per cent., the last loan being made at 8. closing oiiered at 2. Prime mercantile paper, l3 7 percent. Sterling exchange quiet and 'weak at $4.61 !i for sixty-day hills and 4.66 for demand. The total sales of stocks to-day were 229,192 shares, including the following: Atchison, 15,370; Delaware, Lackawanna c Western, 10.150; Louisville & Nashville. 22,610; Missouri Pacific. 8,300; Northwestern, 3,043; North American, 7,730; Northern Pacific preferred. 7.815; Reading, 7.100; Richmond & West Point, 4.020; St. Paul, 17,670; Union Pacific. 17,960. The stock market to-day was. in marked contrast to that of yesterday, rather dull, especially in the afternoon, while in place of the wide fluctuations and sharp movements of yesterday there were comparatively small changes in quotations throughout the day and little decided tendency of prices at any time. The feeling on the street was undoubtedly easier, and many regarded the situation as likely to improve from this time out, and buyers were encouraged by some support from London in the early trading. The general opinion was that any forced liquidation was pretty nearly completed, and that stocks had undoubtedly gone into strong hands, and evidences of buying by insiders in several of the larger properties were seen. A strong opening was had, and the demand from London, with that from the shorts, was sufficient to make further slight gains in the early trading. The advance, however, was the occasion of some selling, when the demand slacked ' away, and toward noon the bears gathered courage enougn to renew the pressure, and prices were carried down to below the opening figures iu almost everything traded in, while Burlington and Rock Island. Atchison. Tennessee Coal and some others displayed marked weakness under the assault, and Sugar Refineries brought up the rear with a drop of 2 per cent, from the best figures of the forenoon. Good buying Hgain appeared at the concession, and late in the day a material recovery from the lowest prices was scored,, the market leaving oil' quiet but firm, generally at insignificant changes from the opening figures. The final changes for the day are in all but few cases for 8m all fractions only, and advances are in a majority, while Union Pacific shows a gain of V& and Southern Pacific a loss of 1 per cent. Railroad bonds were dull, notwithstanding considerable animation in the Reading fours, the Texas Pacific incomes and some others, and tho total day's business reached only 3767,000. The tone of the market was still mixed, but was rather firm in the forenoon, with a weakening latter in tho day. The final changes are as usual very irregular, and among the few marked changes San Francisco. Class 13, lost 2, at 113. Government bonds were dull and steady. State bonds were dull and without feature. Closing quotations were: Four per ct. re...12212!C., St. L.&P 14 Four per ct.coup..l22ifi C. St. L. k P. pref 39 Four and J-js re:..

Upward again was the course of wheat prices and a higher range was established all around. Trading was active, comprising outside as well as local business. The opening was higher than yesterday's closing, and thfs advance was followed by a decline, a reaction of Si 276c occurring after slight fluctuations. Then prices started on their upward course, advancing l'Slc, with December in the lead, eased off some, and closed at about lSz 18C higher than yesterday. At times there was considerable excitement, and the feelisg developed on the part of 'shorts" was quite nervous and they covered freely. Local speculative operations.no doubt, had a good deal to do with to-day's course of the market. However, the influences were of a favorable character again, and especially , the rumors regarding export business, more inquiry and better prices being reported. There was a good general trade in corn, the market ruling ratheminscttled, fluctuations being frequeut within V2lc range The feeling on the whole was hrmer, the undertone at times being quite strong, and the market closed with a gain of VSjc The influences on values were, to a (treat decree, local. Oats were fairly active and strouger, ard a higher range of prices was again recorded. The advance in wheat and corn had a strengthening effect most of the day. The opening in May was at Ho advance, but soon weakened and receded c, became firmer and advanced vc. but declined 4C and closed steady. Mess pork was quite active. Opening sales were made at & Tigc decline, and a further reduction of 22l"C was submitted to. Later prices rallied 25 25c. Toward the clone the prices receded 123150 and closed steady. A fairly active lard trade was reported. Prices advanced 0212'05c, and the appreciation was fairly well supportt-d. Short-rib sides prices ruled irregular, but averaged about .02V2.C5c higher and closed rather steady. Tt i i: . i .ii .a lit leaning juiures rnugeu as louows:

There was early buylusof wheat by Baxter, Stauffer. Gilford

and Hibbard, and it was rumored that 13Io4m got short yesterday, and was buving to cover to-day. The early selling was apEarently made up of long wheat, and was eld by Logan. Baldwin, Farnnm and others. There was a good outside demand, buying orders coming from Minneapolis, New York and various other places. It looked as though a great many holders had closed out and were playing for a break, but the market was strong and active at higher prices. The reported taking of a steamer at New York to load for Lisbon helped to sustain tho market, and. the receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth, COS cars, were hardly large enough to depress values. Soon after the opening December touched l.0.J7ti. an advance of 34c over yesterday's close, but Hutchinson and others sold so much that it broke a little later to $1.038. The 'bulls" camo off victorious later in the day, an active bu3ing and scarcity of offerings raising the price for December to $1.044 after it had fallen as low as 1.27. There was great excitement in the pit while the market was going up, and, between heavy buying by Hutchinson and reports of rain in tho Northwest, there was no comfort for the "bears." The crowd took a band in the buying, and so many stop orders were reached trading was greatly increased thereby. After the top was reached there was so much realizing that the price broke to $1.048. the excitement dying down. December closed at Sl.OJ1, a net advance of lc. AT NEW YOKK.

The Volume of Trade Continues Satisfactory, with Great Steadiness in Prices. INDIANAPOLIS, Oct 7. There is practically nothing new to say of general business. The only thing notable about it is the great steadiness that is being maintained in the volume of trade and the firmness in quotations. Dry goods and groceries continuo to move out quite freely, and all other branches show an activity that is very gratifying. Flour is still dull, the high price for grain limiting the export demaud for the lower guides. The seed market is moderately active, with a good inquiry for field seeds of the better grades. GRAIN. The market for all cereals was quiet to dull to-day, with the exception of oats, which are held firm. The receipts embraced nine cars of wheat, three of corn and one of oats. The receipts for the preceding day aggregated thirty-eight cars. Under the operations of existing laws and conditions our local dealers find it profitable to ship from country points, so that their operations do not figure to any extent in local receipts. The closing bids on 'Change to-day were: Wheat No. 2 red. 982c; No. 3 red. 94c; rejected, 85c; unmerchantable, 65c Corn No. 1 white, 50c; No. 2 white, 49c; white mixed, 46c; No. 3 white, 482494C, latter for one color; No. 4 white, 45c; No. 2 yellow, 49c; No. 3 yellow, 48c; No. 4 yellow, 45c; No. 2 mixed, 49c; No. 3 mixed, 48c; No. 4 mixed, 45c; sound ear, 48c.

The supply of poultry is in excess of the demand, and eggs are in good supply. Butter of inferior grades is abundant and hard to dispose of, but really choice commands full prices, and is scarce at that, while the New York and Boston markets report an aflundant supply. There in less inquiry from neighboring towns for table butter. 4 Poultry Hens. 7c t 15; young chickens. 620 ft; cocks, 3c lb; turkeys, xhoice fat hens, 9c; choice young toms, &c; ducks, fat, 5c; geeae, choice full-feath-jeruiL -SLb5 fc doz. . - - 'Eggs Shippers paying 16c candledi selling from store at 17c.

Facts About Feeding. New York Tribune. The effects of heavy grain-feeding can only be to vitiate or cloy the appetite, and to stimulate the milk product to such a decree as to lessen the yield from ordinary food afterward. Bulky food distends tho paunch for a time; it cannot possibly charge its form or capacity, says a live stock mftn. The cow's stomach is an elastic bag, which adapts itself to the quantity of food taken. Fed hitfhly on grain food the milk and butter product are increased proportionately to the ahiiity of the cow. When the food is suddenly reduced in quantity or quality,' there is a reaction by which a loss is made, and the product will fall below th former normal quality. Hence regular feeding should be maintained at all times. Chances, too. aro to be made gradually. The art ot lee ding consists in this, as much as the science of it exists in a knowledge of the values of foods. Cows and swine undoubtedly return more for corn-feeding than other live stock; four pounds of corn will make one pound of pork. A bushel will, therefore, make fourteen pounds of dead weight, equal to 43 cents for the corn. A friend in Kansas,

wiser than his neighbors, and acting on ray advice, refused to soil corn at 15 cents a bushel, as they aro doing, and borrowed money to buy bogs to consume bis crop. In three months, when his notes matured, he was able to return the money, aud had sold his corn at the above price in the form of pork. , Much uncertainty exists as to the propriety of grinding gram for feeding. Experiments have been so conflicting and uncertain as to make the results valueless. Practice for a long period And the test of the pocket-book only can be satisfactory. In my long experience I have found that to grind the grain as fine as possible will save at least one-third; that is. 300 bushels of whole grain will be consumed in the same time as 200 bushels ground. This applies to ail animals except poultry, to which, nature has given a grinding apparatus of a very eflective kind. It is commonly supposed that sheep do better on wbole grain than on meal. I have bad good reason to the contrary; have had sheep choked with corn and oats both. It is true sheep chew their food fine during the act of ruiniuation. but they are as greedy as hogs, and swallow grain food so fast as to choke themselves. Heuce meal should be fed to sheep in shallow, broad troughs and. in fact, to all animals, when fed by itself. The best way to give meal to horses is in cut feed, moistened but not made eloppy. Cattle may be fed most economically on meal made by grinding ear-corn in the husk, which provides enough roughuess to secure mastication and complete digestion. Mills are made for this purpose. Pastures. New England Farmer. The pasture is the heart of a dairy farm. It is the point around which all the work revolves. One may introduce soiling and green-feeding crops, covered yards and dark barns, and stables for feeding; but the pasture is the natural and most healthful method of feedingforcows,they p.remost contented in it, they are more free Lvom the common diseases in the pnre air and sunlight, and the milk will be purer and better than from cows confined in yards and stables, at least so says Henry Stewart. Diseases of the worst character are becoming frequent in dairy herds, and danger to the public health from them are justly appropended. It may be that these diseases nave been encouraged to some exteut by the too artificial life forced upon the cows, and that the use of pastures of tho best kind must be made nrnle. and the prevailing tendency to make the cow a mere machine for the manufacture ot milk and butter, be restricted out of regard to the purity of these products.

It does not pay to spoil a valuable horse for the snke of makiug him wear out an old collar. Many horses are injured by old, illfitting collars, which cause the horse to become fretful and uneasy, and often produce permanent injuries.
