MARKET

GRAIN PRICES CHICAGO, June 18. Markets are strong ontalk of oats heading short 5n some sections and a good demand for cash corn. The hot weather period Js here and sellers are very cautious. Oats bulls are confident crop is so late and crop scares will develop. Leading crop experts are headed for Iowa, Illinois, to size up the oats. Peoria, Kankakee and parts of Kansas and Oklahoma are the complalners to date. Eighty per cent of the crop seems to be progressing. Chicago cash men mainly believe corn receipts will be good. Oats bulls say bad reports are coming from west of the river. Against the week end we only expect moderate breaks in corn and oats. Looks as though steady purchasing attention will be directed toward September oats. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank Building. Phone 172C.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

GOLDEN SMILE FOR KANSAS IN HARVEST; QUALITY VERY HIGH WELLINGTON, Kas., June IS. The wheat harvest of Kansas has begun. Thousands and thousands of acres in southern Kansas are being turned from fields of waving gold to patches of stubble. By the latter part of next week the harvest will be in full blast. Seldom before has Kansas gone into a harvest with such favorable conditions. Perfect ripening weather has prevailed for the third largest wheat crop of the state. No blight has caused damage So far, labor is plentiful. Acting under the authority of Governor Allen, fifty men will be released temporarily from the state prison, and about sixty from the reformatory, to assist in the harvest. Grain Is High Grade. The quality of the wheat this year is his:h grade. Government estimates on acreage and yield are beins exceeded. The shortage of transportation is one drawback, but that will be met by storage. Although the state's reports estimated the yield for Kansas at 110.000,000 bushels, there is no doubt among investigators for private grain firms that the estimate is low by 5,000,000 to 15,000,000 bushels. In the first place, they say, the state's estimate on acreage is too low at 7,700,000 acres. Eight million acres is nearer correct. And almost 100 per cent of that acreage will be cut, according to present outlook. The average stand of the fields is exceptionally high. Stands are thick and close. It has not gone to straw nearly as much as last year. Danger from Hot Winds Past. Damage from baking hot winds is an impossibility now, unless nature overturns all her laws. Vegetation from here to the Panhandle is as green as a flourishing shamijpck, and hot winds can't come off such as that. While the 1920 Kansas wheat crop is estimated third in bushels produced, it probably is going to give Kansas the most valuable wheat surplus the state has ever had, including the approximate 50,000,000 bushels surplus already on hand. Extensive plans are being made for storing this year's ccrop . Shortage of shipping tonnage and railroad equipment, and the evident certainty of obtaining better prices later are the impelling motives. Associations of wheat growers are adopting slogans, all carrying the message of storing the wheat. OHIO'S REPUBLICANS PLAN HARDING RALLY (By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, O., June 18 The Republican state convention to be held here June 29 and 30 will take on the aspect of a huge rally and jollification meeting in the interest of Senator Harding's candidacy for the presidency, Republican leaders said today. It was announced that prominent Republicans would attend from every county in the state and that many delegations would come on special trains and cars. Final details of the convention which will be held in Memorial hall are being worked out by a committee of three, of which James N. Linton, of Columbus, is chairman. $100,000 Stock of Liquor Is White Elephant In Gold Coast House Deal (By Associated Press) CHICAGO. June 18. Disposition of liquor said to be valued at $100,000, stored in the basement of the residence of the late George F. Griffin in the exclusive "Gold Coast" district today was puzzling federal authorities. A buyer for the house is being sought, but the liquor according to law, cannot enter into the deal. It cannot be removed because of the Illinois search and seizure law. The widow, who desires to sell the property, it was stated, might retain ownership of the liquor but she could not use it after the sale it was said, because that would mean its removal. One federal official gave his opinion that the stock could be sold under a permit for medicinal purposes, while Major A. V. Dalrymple announced he would "demand the letter of the law."

Duncan Leavitt. of Noblesville, is handling, grading and attending to rent, storage and commission for the pool. He is allowed two cents a pound commission.

PATENT FEED. SAID TO BE A FACTOR IN ANIMALS' DEATHS

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN What is designated as a hog tonic and worm killer, to be fed in selffeeders, is held responsible for the death of three fine brood sows and eight shoats on one farm near Fountain City. The same preparation was fed to 34 other hogs on an adjoining farm, but all of these are now recovering. No one will say much, pending an analysis. County Agent Murphy has a sample, but no analysis has yet been made. In the meantime Mr. Murphy wired Purdue, and got the following reply: "The poisoning reported in hogs caused by salts in medicinal mixture. Salt poisoning in such mixtures reported occasionally. Can-do nothing to prevent loss in herds other than to stop giving it. Should feed prepaation made up largely of salt in limited amount to hogs. (Signed) Ira A. Craig." Sold in 500 Pound Lots. This preparation is sold only in 500 pound lots, and the Kansas City firm putting it up sends a small self-feeder with the barrels containing the mixture. This concern, it Is said, has an agent at Dayton, who has sold large quantities of the feed to farmers in the Fountain City district, many shipments of which have recently arrived.
