WAGNER GRAIN LETTER ' CHICAGO, Dec. 6. Corn bulge is on tbe strength in rye and tbe belief that coal strike will end early next week. 'Black Diamond says operators will concede the 31 per cent increase. Tbe end of the coal strike will of coarse mean renewed eastern demand. The east must stock up against winter. December rye at $1.58 is up 11 cents In one week on demand from neutral European ceoutrles. The rye visible Is large at 17 million vs.- 11 million last year, but the price of high grade wheat makes rye look cheap. We believe corn and oats will retain these levels against Monday and Tuesday. t CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER A. CO., 212 Union National Bank Building. Phone 1720. CHICAGO, Dec 6.

The Inter-Church World Movement is seeking to remedy this. Mrs. Edith J. Wilson, visiting London Friend, explained the status of the English church and the problems which she saw the church facing, making a particular point of the need for meeting industrial and social problems. She also explained the "Absolutists" who were imprisoned in England during the war because they refused to do anything but stand firm against the process of militarism.

Corn and Potato Plots Give Same Yield of Corn

C. M. George, county agricultural

agent of Fayette county, has just completed a demonstration which shows that corn following potatoes and corn following corn produced practically the same yield per acre. Early in the season the corn following the potatoes looked as if it were going to die and throughout the season its growth was far behind the corn that was following corn. The ears in general were from a foot to two feet higher from the ground on the corn plot than on the potato plot. However, when the yields wers checked up the potato ground made 78.8 bushels per acre, while the corn ground made 80.75 bushels per acre.
