ocal E. W. WAGNER A CO.'S REVIEW CHICAGO, March 18. New bigbi for the season were made today In March and May corn and provisions immediately went to the daily maximum. The principal buying of corn is coming from the country and ia general. Bearish news has been practically ignored until the past hour since which time orders havo increased materially. The Argentine is reported as practically settled. As cash prices advance there Is more dispositions on the part of the country to sell cash corn but roads are in such bad shape that hauling Is impossible. Prices in the sample market one to three cents higher. Oats yesterday and today displayed Independent strength; many think oats too low In comparison to wheat and corn as they are not much above prewar prices. Sample values to 1 cent up. Hogs prices wero 25 to 30 cents in Chicago today, evidently caused by decision to hold meeting on Thursday to discuss the situation. J" CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE 1 Furnished by E. W.

The advance at another mill is 60 cents over the previous price. Millers say that advices from the Food administration grain corporation are that there is a shortage of No. 2 red wheat in the government holdings. This is the kind the Indiana millers use and the shortage makes it necessary for millers to bid higher for the wheat that is yet in the country and not controlled by the government. Government wheat is available to millers, beginning today. It is estimated by millers that its cost is 14c a bushel more than they have been paying in the open market, and that the flour prices will be advanced an average of 70 cents a barrel, the country over.

"The misapprehension thus threatened," he said, "has been recently fostered by certain distinguished men who have fortified their arguments by characterizing all those who opposed them as narrow-headed, pygmy-minded, etc. It had even been suggested that those who venture to inquire ought 'to be hanged upon gibbets as high as heaven but pointed in the opposite direction.' Land Grants Involved "The questions involved are too great to be settled by the mere calling of names." Citing questions which would bo brought before the league, Senator Reed said that among them might be a grant by Mexico of land to Japan, or sale of Colombia of land to some foreign power which could erect a fortless to command the Panama canal. The disarmament provisions of the league charter, the Missouri senator asserted, would give the executive council absolute power to limit American armament. He added: "We may be beleagured by enemies. All the enemies of destruction may be gathering about us. Yet, unless we can gain tht consent of the five masters of the world (the executive council) we must remain unprepared and meet our fate with naked hands."

He has written several leters to South Bend baseball men, but has elicited no reply. In a letter to the sporting editor of the South Bend Tribune, Heilbroner makes an appeal for a reply.

Janesville tandem attachment will fit any disk harrow we make of the same length i. e. 6-ft., 7-ft., 8-ft., 9-ft., 10-ft. Notched, disk blades only are used. Extra large maple block bearings insure a free and unbreakable bearing. Each scraper is adjustable to its disk blade insuring a clean blade and preventing clogging in trashy fields. Inasmuch as the front harrow throws the soil in the opposite direction very thorough pulverization is the result. All clods are crushed and the surface left well mulched and level. The rear attachment has a very strong frame and such hard work as following a tractor is impossible to cause it to buckle. Design especially adapted for tractor use as well as for horses. . . The scrapers on all our round blade harrows are made of spring steel and work from the center of the disks to the outer edge. Each scraper can be adjusted individually to its own disk blade. The scraper has a slight swivel to allow it to corf orm to the curved face of the disk, which brings the entire scraping surface of the end of the scraper against the disk at all times an exclusive Janesville feature. The scrapers on the Spader, VanDyke Harrow and Tandem attachment are of special design. They are also separately adjustable to each disk. All scrapers on all. Janesville and Budlong harrows are designed to do away with all clogging either with heavy wet soil or stalks and trash.
