BAD WEATHER GIVES CORN PRICES BOOST

CHICAGO, Feb. 19. Unfavorable weather gave some degree of firmness 'today to the corn market. Excessive moisture and low temperatures made a combination which seemed likely to cause further damBue to soft corn. Besides, receipts did not have the volume that would have been pleasing to the bears. Opening prices, which ranged from the same as yesterday's finish to 1-S off with March $1.27 1-2 and May $1.26 3-8. were followed by a slight upturn and then a little reaction. Oats climbed to new high price records for the season. The chief reason was that at first the market was almost bare of offerings. After opening 1-4 to 3-8 to 5-8c up with Max 84 1-2 to S4 3-4, prices, scored a further gain. Much larger receipts of hogs than had been looked for weakened provisions. Support did not develop until there had been a material setback.

He argued that the maximum compensation should not be paiS the roads at a time when all the rest of the nation is being asked to make the greatest sacrifice. "What this DroDOsed rate means"

added Senator Johnson, "is that the

interest on the outstanding bonds of the railroads will be paid In accordance with the interest rates, now fixed; It means, in addition, that upon the stock of the railroads of the country will be paid by the government of the United States, something in excess of eight percent per annum; it means that this percentage in excess of eight percent per annum is paid upon all the stock of all the railroads: it means that this percentage (and I am speaking only of the minimum), shall be paid by the people of the United States not only upon the legitimate issues of the stock of railroad corporations, but upon every issue of stock that has been illegitimately issued watered stock estimated at al

Hatching should begin from February 1,' in the South to March 1. in the North and "West, and should be completed May 1. The usual time for starting the incubators and setting hens coincides too closely with the planting season on the farms and hatching operations are likely to be reduced on that account. Therefore, hatch early.

The city poultry keeper should tackle the business of hatching chicks or buying and rearing "day-old" chicks cautiously or not at all. Often

it is inadvisable to attempt to renew j

the city poultry flock even thongn tne temptation comes strongly to the poultry beginner with the first warm days of spring. Previous experience in the raising of chicks often increases the chances of success, but the land available to the back-yard poultryman usually is too small to undertake a chick business. If it is believed practicable to hatch and rear a few chicks, this can best be done with hens. If it is desired to purchase and rear a few day-old chicks and no hens are available for the purpose, it is possible with little trouble and expense to construct a fireless brooder, which will serve in place of the hens. It would be well for the beginner to obtain from the Department of Agriculture or from State agricultural colleges, publications on hatching and rearing. In tests of a large series of insecticides conducted by entomologists of the,U. S. Department of Agriculture, its was found that a few thorough applications of crude petroleum to the interior of poultry houses will completely destroy mites.

To the Voters of Wayne County I herewith submit my name as a candidate for Clerk of Wayne County, subject to the Republican Primary Tuesday, May 7th, 1918. I take this method of informing the voters of my candidacy, and will not be in a position to make an active campaign, as both myself and the farmers will be very busy, and not want to be bothered with candidates, owing to the lateness of the date of the Primary. I further more believe the time has come vhen the voters select the man they want to fill an office without so much personal solicitation. My Platform, is, One Term only. As the County offices belong to the People, and are theirs to give, I believe if a man is given one of the Good County Offices, that he should be willing to retire at the close of his term, and let others have a chance. I made the race for this office four years ago when our Party was so divided that it was not possible to win. And no one else offered to sacrifice their time and money to make the race when they knew that it meant possible defeat, as over one-half of the Republican party at that time was voting the Progressive ticket and had a splendid young man, Mr. Claude S. Keever, making the race for clerk. In fact our race was so close (only 53 votes difference) that neither of us could win. In conclusion will say that I am again making the race at the solicitation of many friends, who, as they say voted the Progressive ticket in 1914, and now feel that they want to support me, as I made a clean race and took my defeat without any sore spots for any one. I will leave my candidacy in the hands of my friends, assuring them that all help will be kindly appreciated. Yours truly, F. M. JONES
