THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

UNEVEN TREND ! IS FEATURE OF GRAINFUTURES Light Trade About Evenly Divided Between Sales, Buying. BY HAROLD E. RAIN’VILLE United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, April I.—May wheat was firm as the Board of Trade opened today, but the deferred deliveries were somewhat- unsettled, about steady. Firmness at Liverpool, with reports that German Millers may use 50 per cent foreign wheat against 20 per cent recently, did not have much influence. Trade was light and about evenly divided between buying and selling, j Spreading again served to widen the gap between July and SeptemI ber. Corn was easy as scattered selling met little support. The favorable weather was the chief factor. Oats were firm in a slow trade. Russian Wheat Taken At the opening May wheat was % cent higher and the deferred months Vs cent to % cent higher, corn was Vs cent to % cent lower and oats were Vs cent higher. Provisions were steady. Liverpool was steady and about as expected with millers reported taikng Russian wheat. Prices at mid-afternoon were % to Vs cent higher. Buenos Aires was % to % cent up early. The recovery of wheat from the recent selling movement is creating the impression that it is not wise to press the short side on declines. Wide price swings are expected unless unexpected developments develop. There is spreading, spreading and covering in July which keeps that month confused. Expect Bearish Reports Private reports are due today and are expected to be bearish on winter wheat. The strength in corn is more outstanding than in wheat with the fundamentals sound. Last year’s crop was small, cash demand is good and declines meet buying.-v The chief influence, however, is the trend in wheat. Hie recovery from the extreme depression to new lows two days ago in oats has largely been due to the development of a good cash demand. The northwest bought Tuesday in fair volume.

On request, sent with stamped addressed envelope, Mr. Ripley will furnish proof of anything depicted by him.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” which appeared in Tuesday’s Times: Marco Polo, the White God of the Chinese—Marco Polo, Venetian traveler, who visited China in the thirteenth century, was the recipient of great honors conferred upon him by Kublai Khan, the ruler of China, and held high offices under that ruler. For many centuries Polo’s accounts of his travels comprised all the knowledge of Europe possessed of the far east. The great geographical discoveries of Portugal and of Columbus were influenced greatly by them. Polo’s fame survives among the Chinese to this day. His figure is one of the 500 “Arhans” (Buddhist divinities) in the temple of Canton. On the occasion of the geographical congress in Venice in 1881, the Venetian municipality requested and obtained a copy of this statue for erection within confines of the city. The Monkey’s Toy —The monkey’s toy is a nutlike kernel picked up and played with through life by monkeys in the Yunan valley in old China. It is carried about in the monkey’s mouth, where it acquires a coating that is highly beneficial in reducing glandular swellings of the throat. They are considered one of the rarest and most expensive drugs in a Chinese drug store, and the average sale price is S2OO each.
