GRAIN QUOTATIONS WAGNER'S GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Aug. 14. The influence of the world's move against costs has become quite profound. Some fear further weakening in hog prices. Many express the idea that 11.50 for December corn may be neutral ground for some time and bulges will not be lengthy. There are" many bulls in oats but buying power in both grains has been weakened by government movement to cut food profits and curb frantic prices. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER A.

Hunt announces that when he assumes office the latter part of October he will inaugurate a new salary plan as relates to the office of county sealer Of weights and measures, which is under his control, which will mean a saving of at least $600 a year to the county. Hunt's plan is to pay the sealer for the actual time he is employed in discharging his duties, while heretofore the office has paid a straight salary of $1200 a year. He says much of the time during the year the sealer is not I engaged in official work, hence adop- j tion of the new plan. Charles Street,, of Gratis, has been endorsed by the Preble county Republican executive committee for the sealership, for which there were more than forty applicants, says Hunt. Liberty Buttons Saturday Saturday, instead of Friday, is the day Capt. Walter Jessee, of Cincinnati, assistant recruiting officer, j comes to r-aton to aistriDute lciory buttons to discharged soldiers, sailors, officers, enlisted men and army nurses who have received honorable discharge.

The boots and guns were recovered. A quantity of dry goods allegedly stolen by the negroes was not found. Eaton Church Leads. Eaton Methodist church is leading the other churches in the conference district in the centenary movement, according to advices received by the official board of the local church. At the fourth quarterly conference with District Superintendent W. J. Dunham of Dayton, held here this week, the local board completed its work for the conference year and submitted its report to the superintendent. MRS. FLOOK WILL RECOVER; SHOT BY FATHER IN BRAWL Mrs. JenDie Flook, who was shot "Wednesday night in a quarrel with her father, William O'Melia, at their home in Centerville, was resting well Thursday morning, and will, in all probability recover, as the wound was only a flesh injury, according to her physician. Mrs. Flook is the widow of Robert Flook, a Centerville boy who died in service, and is employed in the offices of the Dougan-Jenkins company here. Upon returning from work Wednesday evening, 6he found her father intoxicated and complaining because his son had not received his discharge from the army. Mrs. Flook, taking her brother's part, angered O'Melia, who it is said, followed her out of the house, shot her and then attempted to kill himself, but failed, inflicting only a minor scalp wound. Mrs. Flook was brought to the Reid Memorial hospital, where her recovery is expected. O'Melia is held in the county jail on charges of shooting with intent to kill.

LACK OF

(Continued from Page One) million tons of bread grains, of which ten million, cams from overseas. During the coming yssjr. Europe. ouUide of Russia, will need twenty to twentytwo million tons, practically all of which, must come from oerseas. These foods Europe must have, or anarchy will supervene; and it will do little good If subsistence and order are secured in some sections while destitution and disorder occur in others, since gangrene in one part of Europe will spread. These importations of foodstuffs, however, Europ cannot finance without credits. And these credits Europe cannot expect or afford to assume unless she returns to production. Each nation has Beveral lines of production in which an exportable surplus may be produced. If this exportable surplus fails, the sund basis of Importation is lost. Coal in England is an illustration in point England used to export seventyfive million ton3 of coal. Upon this exportation was based not only the financial foundation of her importa tions, but also her entire program of shipping oer the world. Each or tne new states in central Europe faces the same coal situation that the United Kingdom faces in coal. Production Most Vital End. . "The world worries too much about political conditions and too littlo about economics. Throughout the peace negotiations, everywhere in Europe, there has been undue prominence to the subject of boundaries. Now, the various nations, winners and losers alike, are facing intense internal struggles in economics and industry, toward which the possession oi boundaries means little. Unless a boundary means a corresponding production, it has little value for any state. "These same remarks apply to Germany. The Booner that Germany forgets her colonies, Alsace and Lorraine, the ratification of the Belgian frontier, the gateway of the Poles to the Baltic sea, the correction of the Schleswig frontier, and the loss of Posen and Upper Silesia, and settles down to work within the boundaries remaining to her, and with her maximum remaining resources, the better it will be for Germany."

Very few retailers took the publication of food lists seriously during the war, with the exception of sugar, this being carefully watched. Based en Standard Prices were based on standard brands and qualities, as to canned goods, for instance, which meant noth ing to the concerns putting up extra standards and extras, under private labels. Every retailer was a law unto him' self, working according to his co6t or cupidity, and depending on neighbori hood and class of trade. This also applied to tne slicing or meats, iresn fruits and vegetables, etc., without end.

WAYNE'S FARM LAND

TAXED HIGHER THAN THAT OF NEIGHBORS Assessments of farm lands in Wayne county are larger than in any other county in this part of the state, accordingto information received Wednesday from the state tax board by County Auditor Howard Brooks., who was in Indianapolis Wednesday for a conference with th state board. The valuation of farm lands and improvements in Wayne county, outside of Wayne township, ie $125 55 an acre, or within three and one-half per cent of their actual cash value, according to figures of the county auditor. These figures were based on the sale price and assessments of 70 farms that were sold during the first two months or 1813 in wayne county. Assessments Nearly Value. According to Brooks, the 70 farms sold for a total of $940,465, and the same farms were assessed for $908,920, making a difference of only $31,545 between the actual cash value and the assessed value as fixed by the county assessor. In some cases, where the assessment was less than the amount paid for the land, tho property had depreciated in value, either through weather damage or some other cause, aside from ordinary wear.
