MARKETS

CORN PRICES TURN UPWARD ON MART

CHICAGO, April 18. Notwithstanding a continuance of notably bearish crop conditions, corn prices today turned upward to a material extent Lack of selling pressure was a conspicuous feature of the market. Apparently, a majority of dealers leaned

to the view that for the time being

the recent declines had more than discounted the nearly perfect crop outlook. Opening prices, which varied from unchanged figures to lc higher, with May 127 and July 146 12 to 147, were followed by a slight reaction and then a rise higher than be- - fore. Some revival of demand from the seaboard strengthened oats. Shorts covered freely. After opening 1-8 off to a shade up, prices scored a moderate advance. - Provisions averaged lower in line with hogs. Outside packers were leading sellers.

Saws Tnime More often than not planting must be done in a hurry -between showers, so to speak. You have spent many hours picking, testing and sorting your seed corn and many days preparing the seed bed. You have tuned up the planter and all is ready. Delay can't be tolerated. The shaft drive running in oil and the simple Janesville valves properly place the seed in the ground at any speed without breakage. There are so many things which may come up to delay the planting of the crop, and each year the delays seem to come from a different cause. We have honestly endeavored to make the Janesville Planter good enough so that no matter what your other delays may be they cannot be charged against the planter.

SI

DRILL PLANTER, 30 in. and 36 in. WHEELSJANESVILLE COMBINATION CHECK OR

Saws M(Q)im(Ey No clutches, no springs, no dogs, no chains to break or gum up with dust or age. Just a plain, noiseless shaft running in dust-proof, grease-tight casings filled with hard oil. One filling good for one season. The simple steel shaft, the seed plates and the moving parts of the valves are all made with the idea of giving heavy service for a long time. Of all farm implements the corn planter should be the least complicated. Its parts should be simple, and durable. AH parts are inspected and when the machine is finally assembled it is run for a number of minutes to see that all is ready for the field. If you find a single flaw in any piece we will replace the piece free of charge any time during the life of the machine.
