MARKETS

WEATHER DOES HOT SEND PRICES UP CHICAGO. Oct. 17 Notwithstanding that storm weather led a little firmness in the corn market today, the effect soon disappeared- Buying was largely confined to shorts, and as most of their wants had been supplied yesterday a downward movement of prices began. Selling, : however, was not aggressive, and seemed to come mostly from pit traders. Opening Quotations, which ranged from H off to l-4c advance, with December $1.14 to 11.14 1-4 and May $1.09 5-4 to $00, were followed by a moderate general setback. Oats eased off with corn. Trade, though, was well divided, and more sctive than usuaL Lack of support brought about sharp breaks In the provision market. Buying was minimised owing to down turns In the value of hogs and corn.

Pick Seed Corn from Well-Known

Varieties, BY J. C. BEAVERS The importance of early field selection of seed corn is emphasized by the call sent out by the Government for all farmers to select sufficient seed for planting the 1918 crop. The State Food Committee has designated October 15-20- as Seed Corn Week and schools, bankers, business men, grain dealers, millers and farmer's organizations are organizing for the purpose of lending all possible assistance in this movement Early selection Insures greater vitality and gives plants that are strong and vigorous. Experiments conducted at Purdue show that seed selected before the com is well dented and that selected at husking time, does not germinate as well as that selected after the corn is well dented and before severe frost Many farmers have also found that early fall selected seed produces stronger plants than seed selected at husking time or from the crib. If warm days occur late in October or early November, the germination Is often weakened by slight fermentation. This condition as well as injury by severe frosts, may be avoided by gathering seed corn early and storing where it will dry properly. Pick Old Stand-Bys. Seed should be selected from well established varieties, as new and untried varieties may produce unprofitable crops. Best results will be obtained by selecting well shaped ears with straight rowB of kernels of uniform size, shape and Indentation. They should be chosen from erect Btalks of medium size which are least affect FUEL DEMAND IS BEYONDJUPPLY CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Oct 17. Loren Ulrich, coal dealer, says the demand for coal in Cambridge City exceeds the supply, and that prices are hard to fix because wholesalers cannot give dealers prices but say that month-ahead orders will have to be paid at the prices existing at the month end. Prices at the mine are accelerated by hauling charges, and coal laid down here on the track has to be hauled and paid for. At the present time Indiana coal is $4.25 and $5; Kentucky Is $5.50; Pocahontas is $6.25. Brazil coal, as an illustration, he added, was laid down on the track here at $4.60, and retailed at $5175, a minimum of profit" to the dealer. The Imperial Mills management says the government regulations are just and take the miller out of the hand of the speculators. This mill Is using its receipts for its output of flour. Potatoes, that were a dollar a bushel about one month ago, jumped to one and a quarter last week, and this week are a dollar and a half. Cambridge City dealers say farmers are holding their potatoes. Hundreds of bushels of apples are going to waste in sections near here. Good apples can be bought at onef fty, but the charge is made that the orchardist-farmer is indifferent to the waste regulations laid down by the national food board. Prof." Arthur Hines and E. R. Huddleston are putting on a Lyceum course for the benefit of the High school and the grades. The first number will be given by Dr. Wirt in Community hall next Tuesday evening. A dollar season ticket has been issued, and it is predicted that all spaces will be taken by the entertainment-loving people of Cambridge City. The high school seniors and juniors are boosting the sale. The High school basketball team will go . to Connersville on Oct 26. Coach Lockwood has selected the following players of the first team : Ralph Marson, Wayne Daniels,-Verne ' Sowers, Frank Frohnapel, Sherl Winters, Barton Dolan and Olin Ferguson. ,

ed -by smut and other diseases. The ears should be from three to four and one-half feet from the ground, and should incline slightly downward. It Is always well to avoid ear 8 that have long shanks, those that bug the stalk too closely and those that are borne too high on the stalk for easy husking. Generally speaking it 1b better not to select ears from stalks that are dwarfed, slender, very tall or that sucker badly. One point that cannot be too strongly emphasized this year is that of selecting well matured ears that are not too large. Many" of the best corn men in Indiana are finding that it has been increasingly difficult during recent years to produce a crop of well matured corn. This has undoubtedly been due in part to the tendency of some growers to select large ears for Beed. By selecting medium sized ears of good quality this condition may soon be overcome. ' Most of the seed corn selected in October will contain 25 to 40 percent of moisture. Corn is not safe from severe frost until the moisture content is reduced to 15 percent It is therefore important that every ear selected for seed should be stored so that It will not touch other ears and in a room or building where the air can circulate freely. If 6tored in a place of this kind, it will be thoroughly dry In 2 to 3 weeks of open weather. In view of the fact that good seed Is one of the most essential factors in securing a large yield, farmers all over the state aro taking an unusual interest in selecting and storing their seed.

DUBLIN TO PUT OFF IMPROVING MAItUOADVAY State Advises Trustees To Postpone Rebuilding of National Highway. DUBLIN, InL, Oct In answer to a letter from the board of trustees, the state government has advised that no bonds be Issued for the town road Improvements. A meeting has been called for Wednesday when remonstrances will be heard. Merchants ay that In all Ukllhood no action win be taken by the town board. The resolution passed was for a 55-foot roadway, with curbing and guttering. Farmers here have found corn still soft and not in a condition for harvesting. Labor is very scarce, although ten cents with board has been offered skilled hands. Some shucking Is being done at ten cents, the majority

agreeing that this wage Is ample. Cut ting for silos Is about over. Buyers her say that light hogs are coming freely to the market although a drop of 50 cents to the hundred has been reported since last Saturday. Alers Havnen. however, received $937.50 for 60 young porkers, the average weight being 100 pounds, xne price paid was at the rate of $18.75. O. H. Morris has an exhibit at the bank of two monster cow beets weighing fifteen pounds and a quarter, and the other fourteen and a half. From 15 cents worth of seed he raised three tons of these cow beets, and now wants to hear if this can be beaten by the Straughn growers. The Y. W. C. has taken up the 6tudy of new. books. The club has been making comfort kits for the soldiers, and has done much in the way of assistance to the Dublin boys at the training camps, through the local Red Cross chapter. The First National bank committee reported that $3600 had been the first subscriptions received for the Liberty Loan second issue, and that more was expected when farmers brought in their corn. It will take a month before all subscriptions' are received but it is expected they will far exceed the first issue of some $4,000. RICHMOND BOYS Continued From Page One. low sung out "All Dublin boys this way," and there was a rush to that corner at once by the boys from the west end of Wayne county. A large box had Just been received and the boys were soon delving into its contents. Comfort kits, letters, lunch, chicken, candy, etc., soon made that bunch envied of all. Only a few minutes later some one cried out, "All Cambridge boys this way," and then there was another rush. Just then one soldier near the center of the room sung out "What's the matter with those tightwads at Richmond," and there was a laugh at our expense. Hafner Has Suggestions. John Hafner suggested for the information of the next bunch to entrain for the camp that each man bring plenty of sox, towels, two kinds of soap toilet, and for washing his clothes a small washboard or brush, a good comfortable pair of shoes, three suits of warm underwear, and a good warm suit of clothes. He states equipment does not grow on trees and the war department certainly has its hands full trying to supply these things as rapidly as they are needed. Our visit with the 55th company was short as the boys were soon called out for drill again. Paul Druley says he likes It but Is certainly getting a lot of hard exercise.

OUR GLASSES SATISFY

Dr. Grosvenor, Oculist, City

not be ashamed of the boys from ham.! t Harry Smith says he is making up: f lots of the sleep he has lost In the ,

past, and Hoetecher states the only; kick ha has coming Is becaos they; always put the tall boys In Croat and th short ones bar a terrible time! keeping op. but he feels it wCl comeout all right as he feels his legs stretching more and more every day. We had the pleasure of showing Barry Cohn a newspaper statement that he was among the discharged for physical disability. The boys reported Harry was homesick, and all wars Clad for htm. "Tell the folks I'm aS rlghf "Give my regards to all my friend s," "Stop In and tell father I'm all right," "Give Mr. Romey and Charlie Jordan my best," "Tell Walter Doan hello tor me," and a lot of other messages were showered on us as the 55th filed by at the command "56th company all out" , When wa had arrived outside the barracks there was the company lined up In double rank In front of the serseant. and Bert Welch was reporting "Squad No. 2 all present, sir," and the last glimpse we had was Bill Cohn saluting as he reported, "Squad No. 6 all present sir." Size Is Wonderful. The size of this cantonment is wonderful to the visitor, and when one stops to think there are about twenty or thirty more of them in different parts of the country he can faintly realize what a stupendous task the government has undertaken and wonders how they get along so welL Anyone contemplating a visit there need not be robbed by the taxi men, as a five cent street car fare will take him from the center of the city to the entrance near where our . boys are quartered. The roads leadinj: out to the cantonment are all good, and those running through the camp are made of asphalt It is no wender we are urged to buy Liberty Bonds to supply the funds to keep these great training places go ing, ana ne is certainly a "slacker" who can buy and does not do so. Our boys are doing the part assigned them and it is up to us to support them. Another trip across the camp, winding In and out among the drilling companies, to thank Major Comstock for his courtesy, and near his headquarters we found the first men we had seen drilling with arms. Everywhere one could look were men in fours, squads, and companies soberly drilling, and the count of 1-2-3-4 1-2-3-4 was incessant The grim determination noticed on the faces of these men indicates that the Kaiser will have some sleepless nights before this war is over. Schools are to be opened and the men given every opportunity to Improve themselves and win promotion. - This war Is going to prove a grand experience to our young men, and in after years the man who was a "slacker" will be ashamed to look one of these in the face.
