$25.25 PER HUNDRED PRICE DEMANDED BY SUGAR WHOLESALERS BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN "If you want sugar at $25.25 per

hundred pounds, f. o. b. New York city, i

wire your order and remit the money. Jio sugar will be shipped until cash Is received." This offer was received by at least one Richmond baker Thursday, and possibly by several dealers. There Isn't a sack of sugar in wholesale hands in Richmond. One jobber said that the last they put out sold at $16.75; the next man reported $17.75 as their latest price and added: "We haven't had a sack of sugar in several days, nor have we any in transit right now." The third sugar man said that he had disposed of sugar some days ago at $18.50 and up to $19.50, the later

lor southern granulated. Like the others he has been out of sugar for a 'time. j Speculation in Sugar. The fact is there are many speculating in sugar and apparently much sugar hoarded, or at least, some candy and preserve houses have anticipated their wants for months. These have a surplus and if they can make four to six cents per pound on it, they are willing to take chances of replacing at less money, and in any event have all the sugar contracted for or in store, that they will need for some time, "With a percentage to spare. Aside from candy, pop, and gum manufacturers, so comfortably fixed, there are evidently a lot of sugar brokers and speculators in the game lor what may be in it and this accounts, in part, for the rapid disappearance of sugar stocks, some of "which are in hiding. It is clearly evident that "there are wheels-within-"Wheels" in the sugar market, both national and international. A Wide Open Market. The combined result is a wide open market on all sugars, with the speculator setting a price on his surplus to 6uit the emergency nfronting the buyer. "All the traffic will bear" is his motto and this accounts for such a wide range in sugar quotations at various points. Refiners' quotations go out from day today, and each refinery or factory quotes to all its trade on the same basis, of course. Speculators are not so frank and open. They believe in traveling the road to wealth fast, "while the going is good.

Contractor's Relief Law Is

Held Invalid at Greensburg Isaac Smith, contractor for the nearly-completed Main street bridge, was given a new contract last summer by the county council to Bave him

from bankruptcy, under the contractor's relief law. The law was Wednesday held invalid by John Craig in the circuit court at Greensburg. However the case probably will be appealed. Judge Craig overruled a motion of

the plaintiff to strike out a demurrer, ; filed by the Johnson county commis-j

sioners, and then sustained the demurrer. In his decision he held that the law is unconstitutional, because it specifies only road and bridge work, and excludes all other forms of county work. It is therefore class legislation, according to the ruling. The relief law was passed because of conditions arising out of the world war. Many contractors were unable to do work during the conflict on contracts already granted them. When

the war ended many wished to be relieved of their contracts, because they

been based on a lower scale of

prices for material and labor than prevailed after the signing of the armistice. What effect the local ruling will have on several similar cases disposed of by the county commissioners here last year is not known, but it 13

Dandruff Soon Ruins The Hair

Girls if you want plenty of thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair, do by all means get rid of dandruff, for it will fstarve your hair and ruin it if you don't. It doesn't do much good to try to brush or wash it nut. Thfl only suro way to get rid of dandruff is to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every (single sign and trace of it. You will find, too, that all itching tind digging of the scalp will stop, and your hair will look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid wrvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and four ounces is all you w-d. no matter how rmi"h- dandruff you have. This simple tiy i -Adwrtispmpiit.
