WHEAT IS LOWER; CORN AND OATS UP Decline in Liverpool and Exchanges Depress Wheat, By United financial CHICAGO. Jan. 4.—Wheat opened lower while torn and oats showed strength on the Chicago Board of Trade today. A late decline in Liverpool, due f .o further weakness in foreign exchange md free offerings by Australia and Argentine on that market were reflected and brought an easier and lower opening. Export business over night amounted to 100.000 bushels. Cola weather, ranging from 10 above to 10 below zero prevailed over t le winter belt, but much of the ana is r ow snow covered and little damage is expected. Fair local buying, encouraged by light receipts and some export bust r.ess Thursday as well as higher Argentine values on the old crop, aided the up-turn in corn. Although only 100,000 bushels was worked for export at the seaboard Thursday local dealers handled 150.000 con signed for over-seas shipments.

Strength was attributed to activity of shippers, but their commitments were not large, though the number of them was sufficient to prove a steadying factor. Quotations remained almost unchanged, lights selling at S7.SO, mixed at $7.30 and $7.35, with occasional sales up to $7.40 and heavies generally at $7.50 with a top of $7.55. The bulk of sales as on Thursday was made at $7.30. Sows held steady at $6.50 down, but pigs were weaker, selling down generally from 56.75, compared with $7 on previous trading. Stubborneas of prices this week has caused favorable comment for the selling side as many traders had the early week’s sharp rise to be broken down by continued heavy offerings. Thursday's cleai ance which left only 159 hogs unsold demonstrated the market’s ability to absorb the offerings. A decidedly bearish trend was noticeable in the cattle market In which all grades except canners and cutters showed a distinct loss of 15 to 25 cents. Steers led the decline when large buyers refused to accept the offerings except at concessionary fig ures. Receipts 1.500. Steadiness marked trading In the caif market in which choice veals continued to command a top of $15.50 while the bulk sold from sl4 to sls. Receipts 800. The sheep and lamb market was; quiet, due to light receipts of 200, but j prices held steady with native lambs selling down from $13.50 and sheep down from $7.

Your Dollar i , Uncle Sam Tells Who Gets It,

chewing TOBACCO // x \ I KT at ts na I b zm 6erirs J \\ >t tie ncj // • fry Ralph F Couth. Vaatu, 0 C. C~ ~3 HEWING of tobacco is distinctly an American institution. __J Early settlers borrowed the Uuoit from the Indians- and it ha.never been abandoned. Not all tobacco chewers sit around the stove in the country store, either. There was a time when spectators in the Supreme Court of the United States noted that one justice frequently signaled another. Then a package passed between them. It was only one Judge borrowing a chew from another. The maker of chewing tobacco pays '4 cents of each dollar he receives for his materials, according to United States Government data. Labor gets 6 cents. The remainder, 40 cents, is for profit, overhead and taxes. A 10 per cent wage increase would cause the manufacturer to add to eucli dollar of his selling price six-tenths of 1 cent if he wished to cover the extra expense. A 10 per cent increase in materials would add 5.4 cents. NEXT: Paving Materials. Marriage licenses Alex Thomas. 22. Gary. led.: Emma Turner. 19 2533 Northw < stem. I*. T. Simmons 21. 209 N.
