Today's Market Quotations

WASHINGTON CAUSES PRICES TO TUMBLE ; CHICAGO, Oct. 9. Downturns In the prices of corn resulted today from the government crop report which showed a yield largely In excess of what the trade had expected. Bearish gossip was also current of a likelyhood of federal efforts to bring about a lower ratio in the value both of hogs and corn. Enlarged offerings of old corn from rural holders tended further to weaken the market. Opening quotations, which anged fro l-4c to lc off at $1.19 1-4 to $1.19 5-8 December and $1.15 to $1.15 1-4 May were followed by a moderate additional decline. Bullish constructions placed on the government report as to oats gave relative firmness to that cereal. There was persistent heavy buying of the December delivery. Stoppage of speculation in cotton seed oil had a weakening effect on provisions. Talk of government moves to reduce hog prices to $10 a hundred pounds formed another stimulus to selling.

CATARRHAL DEAFNESS MAY BE OVERCOME A simple, safe and reliable way that calls for no ugly trumpets, phones or other instruments To be deaf is very annoying and embarrassing. People who are deaf are generally mighty sensitive on this subject. And yet many deaf folks carry around instruments that call attention to their inlrmlty. Therefore people who are hard of hearing, who suffer from head noises, or who are actually deaf from catarrhal trouble, will be glad to know of a simple recipe that can be easily made up at home for a few cents cost that is really quite efficient in relieving the disagreeable deafness and head noises caused by catarrh. From any drug store get one ounce of Parmint (double strength) about 90c worth. Take this home and put it into a simple syrup made of pint of hot water and four ounces of ordinary granulated sugar. Take a tablespoonful four times a day. This treatment should by tonic action reduce the inflammation in the middle ear that a catarrhal condition would be likely to cause and with the Inflammation gone the distressing head noises, headaches, cloudy thinking and that dull feeling in the ears should gradually disappear. Anyone who suffers from catarrh, catarrhal deafness or head noises should give Parmint a trial. It is pleasant to take and is quite inexpensive Clem Ti1j:ir.thwrjte. Adv.

GERMAN ARCH-SPY

Bolo's brother is a French Archbishop. It would appear that Bolo Pasha as successfully hid his face from cameramen as he did his secret schem-! ings in the interests of Germany.

I did not know the gun was loaded," Harsh told police. "I though that I had shot the last shell on July 4. Many times since then the children have played with the gun and surely if we had thought the gun was loaded we would not have let our boys play with it." "For a while I was dazed and did not know what.! had done. I pulled her from the floor and spoke to her and when she did not answer I knew what I had done."

"One million food administration membership cards in the front windows of Indiana homes by October 28th," is the slogan of the Food Administration for Indiana. T)ie above, is a reproduction of the handsome three-color window card which will be given to Indiana women who sign the Hoover pledge card. The food administration points out that it will soon be considered" just as patriotic to have one of these cards in your window as it. is to hang out the American flag. -, Women who put this card in their window will show that they have studied the food problem as outlined on the. Kitchen "War. Creed," and in the book, "Ten Lessons on Conservation," which are to be given at the time they sign the pledge card. The food problem needs some study and it is necessary for people to get thordughly interested in it before they can understand what it means and realise what they must do. The appearance of these window cards in thousands of windows will help to create the intensive. Interest in food conservation that is absolutely imperative 'at this time. "Boost food conservation in your neighborhood by hanging the window card in your window," says Mr. Hoover. -

Red Cross Issues Statement Concerning Its Knitting Work

The Richmond Chapter of the Red Cross association through its secretary, Mrs. Lucretia T. Carr, Tuesday issued the following statement concerning the misunderstanding in regard to the management of the knitting: To the Branches of the Richmond Chapter: In order to correct a rather widespread misunderstanding in regard to the management of the knitting undertaken by the Richmond Chapter of the Red Cross it seems necessary to explain the work fully to those concerned. The chapter was asked to produce 430 sets of knitted articles, socks, sweaters, mufflers and wristlets. It was decided to meet this requirement

Gaar of Richmond had been managing the Sock Shop and making socks for the State Defense Council and had just finished her allotment when we were starting to take up the knitting assigned us. She offered to take over our entire allotment of socks and wristlets if we would furnish the yarn required to make them and this offer was accepted. She has continued the operation of the Sock Shop and has given out the yarn to the knitters who had previously made socks. At first the chapter was unable to secure yarn in large quantities and Mrs. Gaar was authorized to purchase yarn in order to keep the knitters oc dangerous looking little hat?

As this yarn was made into socks they were turned over to the chapter and Mrs. Gaar was reimbursed for the cost of the yarn in the socks she delivered to us. Last week the chapter received six hundred hanks of yarn and half of it was turned over to Mrs. Gaar to complete the allotment of socks. The sweaters and mufflers are being knited from yarn supplied at the Chapter headquarters. It is hoped it will be possible to keep on hand a stock of yarn adequate to supply all persons who are willing to knit. Mrs. John W. Clements is chairman and Miss Anna Nicholson vice chairman of the knitting committee of the Chapter which has complete charge of the work. The misunderstanding in regard to the knitting is no doubt due to the fact that previous to September 1, the Sock Shop was not connected with the Red Cross. The need for knitted articles is very great and very urgent and it is hoped that everyone who is able to help will "do her bit" Yarn for socks may be had at the Sock Shop by those qualified to knit socks and yarn for mufflers end sweaters may be had at the Red Cross headquarters. Persons who do not know how to knit will be instructed by members of the knitting committee at headquarters and the committee will send an instructor to any of the branches of the Chapter where instruction is desired.
