OIL ISSUES SUFFER SLUMP Northern Pacific Breaks 2 Points in Final Hour. NEW YORK. June 10.—The stock market closed unsettled today. Selling of Northern Pacific was a prominent feature in the late dealings. That issue broke over 2 points to C 7% and Great Northern fell 1 point to 66. There was heavy selling af the Mexican Oil issues throughout the afternoon. Mexican Petroleum falling nearly 10 points to 131%, from which it rallied to 132%. Pan-American Petroleum broke 4 points to 50%, followed by a rally to 51'*. I nited States Steel recovered to 77. Studebaker was in demand, aud after selling down to 69% recovered to 70s. Total sales of stocks were 709,900 shares; bonds, $15,688,000. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —June 10— At the opening of the market this morning there was a general disposition in local and professional circles to buy stocks on the theory that a rally is justified, even though it be temporary, and this was surprising, considering the very pessimistic opinions that prevailed after the close of the market yesterday. And, for a little whllA. the market responded to this professional demand and displayed a little stability with a few notable exceptions, including Atlantic Gnlf and Famous Flayers-Laskey. The declaration of an initial dividend by the Pacific Oil directors was looked upon with favor, and probably was instrumental in modifying local sentiment. In addition to this we had a sore favorable money market, and the to: nage statement of the United States S.eel Corporation was less bearish tbau some had expected, but nothing substantial was gained in the way of market improvement. The little steadiness only served to induce further liquidation, the selling becoming more general later in the day. Among the principal sufferers being American Sugar. Mexican Petroleum. United States Rubber and others equally prominent. Pure Oil having been heavily sold during the afternoon. There can be little doubt but that following such a severe decline as the market has bad recently and the heavy liquidation that a reasonable recovery is in order. But so far as we can see there is nothing in the general business situation that would justify the hope of permanent improvement. TWENTY STOCKS AYEREAGE.

WHEAT LOSES EARLY GAINS Erratic Tone Features MartProvisions Higher. CHICAGO, June 10.—The grain market was again erractic today because of conflicting reports of progress of legislation aimed at the Chicago Board of Trade. Marked gains were registered at wheat at the onening, but these were partially wiped out before the close. Provisions /went higher July wheat opened up 3c at $1.38 and closed off l%c. September wheat opened up 2c at $1.19% and closed off %c. July corn opened tmehanged at 62%c and closed off %c. September corn opened off %c at 63c and closed off %c. July oats opened off %c at 37%c and closed unchanged. September oats opened at 39%c, off %c, and closed off %c. (By Thomson A- McKinnon.) —June 10Wheat —Crop news from Ohio River territory hag been a little unfavorable and has influeneed today's market. Demand has not been broad, possibly because of the many uncertainties in the general situation as well as in the outcome of the crop. Eastern houses were buyers at times, but thp export trade on the whole was slow, with offerings from the Southwest showing a moderate increase. Clearing and slightly cooler weather is indicated over the West and Southwerfr which will aid materially in flnishingr off the crop and permitting harvesting. There has been no volume of offerings of new wheat to this market, but one inquiry from the 8011th disclosed the fact that buyers are unwilling to contract unless having more than the mual guarantee of fulfillment of selling contracts. This condition may result in noncompetitive buying and consignments from the country rather than contracts for future shipments. The immediate situation in the cash market is a strong one to the extent that accumulations are at a minimum and extreme premiums are being paid for what little has arrived. The news seems to bate lost its important pffeet upon prices, therefore values will be governed by tlie size of the movement from the country. Corn and Oats—A small amount of corn has been sotd to the seaboard, otherwise the shipping demand is slow. Elevators are the principal buyer* of current receipts ami are hedging In the future delivery. Receipts are decreasing and ,’ow offerings from the country are falling off. There is nothing in the prevailing news to indicate any important advance in prices. Nevertheless, values are resistant to selling. Provisions—Receipts of hogs from day to day are not up to the usual June movement. Because of this, there is an undercurrent of strength in the hog marSfcet and in product*. However, there Is no broadening of interest in the market for the manufactured article. CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE. —June 10WHEAT—' Open. ITlch Low. Close.

WISHES DRASTIC FIREWORKS LAW More strict regulation of the sale and use of fireworks in Indianapolis will be provided in an ordinance which Dr. Sumner A. Furniss, city councilman, today asked the city legal department to prepare in time for introduction at the next session of the council. Dr. Furniss said he hoped to get the measure passed before the Fourth-of July. Under the present ordinance, found in Section 696 of the municipal code, the use or sale of fireworks within the city limits is prohibited unless a permit is obtained from the board of public safety. The board issues permits through the police department and Dr. Furniss said be understands it is not very difficult to secure them, thereby making the regulation ineffective. Dr. Furniss instructed the legal department to draw the new ordinance so it will prohibit the use of fireworks except in celebrations under the strict supervision of city authorities. ? —* ARCH SLACKER TO BE MARRIED SOON BERLIN, Juno 10.—Grover Bergdoll sent the International News Service correspondei t the following message from Eberbach: “On account of personal reasons, I cannot divulge the identity of ray fiancee or when the wedding will tnke place.

MILLIONS PAID FOR PUBLICITY BRING PROFITS Scheme by Which Farmers May Benefit by Using Business Methods. VALUE OF ADVERTISING BY FREDERIC J. HASKIN. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Advertising in the newspapers offers a way out of present difficulties for many farmers. In the opinion of students of the farmmarketing problem, of which few of them are taking advantage. It is noticeable that merchants and manufacturers, although most of them are facing reduced sales and a falling scale of prices, are not cutting down on their advertising. Many of them on tna contrary, have increased their expenditures for newspaper space, realizing that this is necessary to counteract the tendency toward a slump in buying. American business spends on an average about two million dollars a day in advertising, but the volume of sales averages about a hundred million dollars a day. The two million, dollars is the regulator and stimulator of the flow of the hundred million. The way in which the individual business man uses his share of the two million determines very largely what is to be his-- share cf the hundred million. This is a fact which the farmers, as X class, are just beginning to grasp. The farmer, for the most part, produces staple raw materials which nviy always be sold at a market price by merely hauling them to the nearest market. Unlike the merchant and the manufacturer, be does not fare a competition which is capable of driving him from the market, nor does he have to create a demand for his product. A bushel of potatoes is always worth something, and people will nlways need potatoes. THE FARMER'S | POSITION. So the farmer has reasoned in the past. He ranks among the producers of fundamental necessities. In fact, he produces the most fundamental necessities of all. Only wood, steel and other basic materials of industry can compare with food in this regard. The producers of steel do not advertise. The demand far steel is certain, just as is the demand for food. But ths producers of steel and of most of the other basic materials of American industry are organized and do control the prices of their products. That is tha great dinerence between them and the farmers. If the potato growers were organized they would be in the same strong position as the producers of iron and petroleum and lumber. But the farmer is in no such position. He has almost no control over the market price of the staple commodities which he produces. Some efforts are now being made by farmers to obtain such control by holding crops and by making agreements as to how much of a given commodity shall be produced. These efforts *Vill doubtless grow in strength and extent, but so far they have not produced any striking results, as is shown by the present economic situation of the farmer, who is bearing the brunt of the .‘all in prices. What advantages has the farmer to counterbalance these disadvantages? He has ail of the rights of free competition, if he will only use them. He has the right to produce anything he pleases, and sell it anywhere he can for the best price he can obtain. For example, this price of corn may be down, but if he can produce a high grade of seed corn and advertise It in such a way that he can convince others of its excellence, he may be able to sell it for a very fiigh price. Again, beef and hides may be down, but breeding stock and breeding service are things for which a special market at a special price may be created. There are thousands of suburbanites who are starting in the chicken business this spripg, for example, and who will pay good prices for hatching eggs, younjf cbigkons and breeding stock. The possibilities and methods of farm advertising are ably discussed in a booklet on the subject which has been published by the South Dakota State Agricultural College in collaboration with the United States Department of Agriculture. This publication especially emphasizes the opportunities of selling through advertising special product such as seed and breeding stock, and especially the enormous opportunity of appealing directly to the consumer through the wantad columns of the daily papers. “Subscribers read the want-ads." this bulletin says, “ in fact many of them read the advertisements first.” A study of the want-ads which run continuously lti any strong dally paper reveals the fact that farmers are in that way selling the greatest variety of things, including things which it would be difficult to sell in any other way. Hatching eggs, young chickens, young tomato and other plants for setting out, cuttings for starting hedges, manure for use in flower gardens. ' special quality fruit, comb honey, rabbits, nuts, cider, strawberries, are a few of the things which are being marketed successfully through want-ads by farmers in one paper in one city.

PIBLICITY i 8 FOR FARMS. There now exist near all large cities farms which use advertising almost as thoroughly and scientifically as do merchants. Such farms usually have names, such as Sunnybrook or -■High View, which sound well and look well In print. This name is apt to be displayed in large letters on the highway nearest the farm, nnd a'ao on Its barns, its wagons and trucks. These farms usually make a specialty of neat and attractive appearance and treat motorists and other visitors politely. Such a farm will have ah advertisement of some sort in the nearest paper all the time. It has discovered that with a little enterprise almost anything that has good value can be sold at a good price, and /that a steady revenue may be made to How in, quite independently of the staple crops. The South Dakota bulletin describes the operations of one large farm which sells 99 per cent of all its products by mail through advertising direct to the consumer. This farm, for example, sold 300 bushels of alfalfa seed at a net profit of S7OO, through a ten-word want-ad, the cost of advertising being $17.60. Such farmers are not among the bankrupts. Despite such successes, and despite the fact that almost every farm product has been sold through advertising and by mail, the proportion of farmers who make any use of advertising remains small. This no doubt is because they are not accustomed to it, have never considered the possibilities of the thing. The South Dakota bulletin describes at some length the composition of advertisements, but the farmer'who wants to insert an ad in the nearest local paper will usually find the men in the newspaper office ready to help him in this matter. If he can tell them the facts.

they can make the ad. The bulletin makes another good suggestion. It suggests that most editors would be glad to have more rural news than they do have, and that when be gives the paper an ad, the farmer also contribute some information about crop conditions or interesting happening iu his neighborhood.
