CORN MARKET EASY; WHEAT PRICE STEADY CHICAGO, August 8. Favorable weather and a prospect of further rains eased down the corn market " today. Another bearish factor was general belief that the government crop report would indicate likllhood of a largely Increased yield as compared with a month ago. Smallness of receipts here however together with a continuance of demand for corn available to be used at once prevented any decided set back in prices. Opening quotations, which ranged from the same as yesterday's finish to c lower with December at $1.16 to $1.16 and May at $1.14 to $1.13. were followed by a moderate decline all around and then something of a rally. Wheat sagged with corn. After opening 4c up at $2.26 Sept., the mar ket fell to $2.24 and afterwards re covered to $2.25. Continued big threshing returns weakened oats. Besides, there were bearish forecasts circulated as to the probable estimat'of yield to be shown by the government report. Provisions took an upward swing because of announcement that England had advanced her maximum price on memat. In addition, the hog market here was strong, although, near to the topmost lever known.

INDIANA WHEAT ACREAGE TO BE INCREASED HALF Professor Christie Expects Farmers to Plant 3,000,000 Acres.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. . 8. Information gathered by Indiana Committees on Food Production and Conservation indicates more ' interest in winter wheat sowing in Indiana than at any other time in the history of the state. The wheat now being thrashed is bringing the farmer from $2 to $2.25 a bushel, which he considers good profit, and with a minimum price of $2 a bushel guaranteed to him, the farmers already have commenced fall plowing for winter wheat. Prof. G. I. Christie, state food director, predicts that the acreage sown may be as high as 3,000,000. The normal wheat acreage in this state is slightly more than 2,000,000. An organized campaign to stimulate Interest in wheat and give all possible information concerning the crop has been undertaken. The state leader of the wheat campaign committee has made the following report on what has been accomplished to date: Bankers Help Also. "To further the work, the active cooperation of the bankers, grain dealers, millers and agricultural organizations has been, obtained. Bankers Help Also. "To further the work, the active cooperation of the bankers, grain dealers, millers and agricultural organizations has been obtained. - "Through county agricultural agents and special representatives sent out, about 1,000,000 bushels of the best wheat In the state has been reserved for seed. This will be sold at a reasonable price by farmers themselves or by elevator and mill jp " " r-"" not to exceed 10 percent a bushel above the market price. A list of the farmers whose wheat was selected in a county, has been mailed to every grain dealer and banker in that county. A list of seed wheat by varieties is being made and will be sent to all grain dealers, millers and bankers In the state. "Arrangements have been made for six to eight lectures on wheat Improvement to be given In thirty-eight counties and are under way for the other counties In the state. Splendid co-operation has been obtained and the people are taking hold of the work with much enthusiasm." SOLDIERS Continued From Page One.

"I tried different medicines suggested by ray friends but it seemed that I couldn't get rid of the gas on my stomach after meals," Mr. Harrison said.

"My system seemed to be run down all over before I took Tanlac. I felt tired and worn out a great deal of the time. "Tanlac helped this, too. I sleep good at night now and get up feeling fine and ready for the day's work. "I can eat anything I want and my appetite is fine and I'm giving Tanlac credit for it all."
