GRAIN PRICES WAGNER GRAIN LETTER CHICAGO, Feb. 26. Corn and oats led entirely by email Chicago receipts and cash corn firmness.. Locals are conservative and in favor of realizing on bulges. Presumably No. 4 mixed corn is around $1.42 to $1.45, representing No. 2 contract corn, $1.47 to $1.50. Cash corn about 2c up. Industrial and financial jiews in favor of awaiting' dips. Poor -wheat news from Kansas helped the cash wheat, but old wheat supplies are so Immense that they discount any bad news. CI cago contract stocks of corn are only 147,000 and deliveries on February c mtract will be light. We do not believe February corn will ex pire above $1.4$ to $1.50. Locals are buying corn and oats on the dips. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER A CO., 212 Union National Bank Building. Phono 1720. CHICAGO.

To Relieve Catarrhal Deafness and Head Noises
If you have Catarrhal Deafness or are hard of hearing or have head noises go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength), and add to It V pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar. Take one tablespoonful four times a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing head noises. Clogged nostrils should open, breathing become easy and the mucus stop droping Into the throat. It is easy to prepare, costs little and is pleasant to take. Anyone who has Catarrhal Deafness or head noises should give this prescription a trial. Advertisement.

BIGGER PRODUCTION at the sources of supply is the great national need today ! Farms, as well as factories, mines and mills, all must work to produce more. Farm labor is scarce and costly. Power takes the place of men and horses. It is at your commandevery day! It does more work, at a lower cost, with fewer men. The tractor is the first step toward power farming it is the great all-purpose, year-round power plant. With a tractor, the farmer can plow, cultivate, and haul. But he can also do a score of other hard jobs on the farm efficiently and economically. Using its belt power, he extends its service through the entire year. He can thresh his grain, husk his corn, hull his clover, shred his fodder, shell his corn, cut his ensilage, fill his silo, saw wood, bale hay, grind feed, pulverize limestone, pump water and operate his repair shop. The farm, equipped with tractor power, produces in a larger way and at a lower cost. It becomes more profitable. It is not affected by the "hired man" problem. One of the vital factors in power farming is Rockwood, The Drive Pulley. On tractors and belt-power farm machines, it delivers the full power of the engine to the driven machine, assuring full speeds and dependability of operation. Rockwood, The Drive Pulley, is bifclt for "brute service." It is the acknowledged standard pulley for farm machinery. See that each new farm power machine you buy is equipped with Rockwood, The Drive Pulley. To all who are interested in power farming, a booklet, "Belt Power on the Farm," will be sent free of charge. Write for it today to Henry Ford's distributors for this district THE INDIANA TRACTOR CO., Indianapolis, Ind. See your local FORDSON TRACTOR dealer, and let him show you hof many jobs the FORDSON will do on your farm, saving time and labor.
