EARLHAM FOOTBALL TEAM STARTS WORK FOR SATURDAY GAME First practice since the Butler game will be put on by the Earlham football team n-Reld Field Wednesday afternoon. Coach Mowe has been giving his proteges a rest during the reign of J. Pluvlus and expects them to be In much better shape to start a drive to carry another win over for the locals when they line up against the highly touted Kalamazoo college in Richmond, Saturday, Nov. 6. With two weeks rest the Quakers should have recovered from many of the minor injuries they receive in Ihe recent contest. Gordon, tackle, will probablv be out for the rest of the rear. Captain Hall, who received a dislocated finger in Saturday's setto will probably he in shape to resume his place on the line. Dope on the Michigan Normal has it that they are one of the strongest elevens in that part of the country, playing some of the fastest teams in northern Indiana and southern Michigan. Coaches Mowe and Higglns are not predicting anything regarding the outcome of the game. , They will, however, spend all their time In bringing the squad into shape to give the visitors a high class battle and put on one of the best football exhibitions ever seen In Richmond. High School Varsity Squad Returns to Fundamentals ; Men Are in Good Condition Practice for the high school first string squad was held Tuesday evening and the time was spent In perfecting plays in preparation for the game with the DuPont Manual Training high school of Louisville, Ky., next, Saturday at Louisville. The scrubs were given a rest while the first team men ran through signals and returned to a few fundamentals of the game All the men on the squad are in first-class condition none having suffered an Injury in the Wilkinson game. The Louisville high school is one of the best in the blue grass state, according to reports from that part of the country. They have a large enrollment to draw from and are not new in the football field. The local squad has been playing good enough football to hold their own against virtually any team that might apppar on their schpdule. As a result of the improvement shown in the past few weeks they are expected to put up a game fight, although dope has them entering the contest at a little disadvantage. The lineup will probably be the same that has started the games' the last two weeks, unless some injuries should happen this week. The team will leave Friday afternoon for Louisville.

The Farm By WILUAM The jtto Lacey and J. C. blossom sale, held 214 miles northeast of Whitewater, on Monday, netted $3,350. Dr. Blossom recently sold the farm to two brothers named Cook, from Kentucky, and the sale was held in order to make a settlement with Mr. Lacey, who moved on the farm January 1. At the tale held on this farm on January 5, 1920, Mr. Lacey bought much of the live stock and some of the implements which were auctioned at lower prices on Monday. Three horses, 9 head of cattle and 61 hogs, the latter ranging from weanling pigs to brood sows, were disposed of, also about 30 acres of standing corn. Tom Conniff was in charge of the auction, Francis McMinn, of the Dickinson Trust com-, pany made the settlements, and the ladies of the Whitewater M. E. church ! served a most acceptable lunch jig the numerous visitors. Shortage of Soft Winter Wheat. According to our best authorities the soft winter wheat states did not raise within 160,000,000 bushels as much wheat this year as in 1919. This will presnt a problem to soft winter millers later on. These states are: Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and Missouri. The demand for sort wheats may sena me uciu.au i.. ,

the 1921 crop is available. If wheat comes out slowly, and is not forced on the market in a panicky way. very good judges look for better prices, instead of lower ones. Wheat Held. Charles Carpenter, of the Richmond Roller Mills, says that so far as he is able to judge Wayne farmers have only about 20 per cent of their wheat on hand. He says that this condition probably exists over most of the Richmond radius. He says he would not be surprised to see wheat considerably ST. LOUIS SOCCER LEAGUE OPENS WITH FOUR CLUBS ST. LOUIS. Mo.. Oct. 27 The Sc. Louis Soccer League has resumed op erations with the four clubs from last year again in line. Included are the American champions, the Ben Millers Cliff Brady, one of the stars of the league, is out of the game this season, having decided not to run the risk of an injury that might lessen hH chances of getting the regular assignment on second base for the Boston Americans in the 1921 campaign NORTHWESTERN COACH PLANS TEAM AROUND THREE VETS CHICAGO, Oct. 27.

and Farmer R. 8 AN BORN higher in March than it is now, and with a much brisker demand. Flour trade is "slow," he says, for in such uncertain markets dealers are wary of stocking up and merchants are buying supplies just as needed. It may be said that this condition has been general, ever since the decline set in. Potato and Squash Display. Andrew J. Witt, of Boston, displays a South American squash which weighs 13 pounds, in a Main street dry goods store, not because of its weight, however, but because its shape is a novelty in this section. The vegetable is shaped like the "big stick," so often cartooned, or much like a baseball bat, being slender and 42 inches long. S. A. Wiggins, of Losantsville. thinks he has raised some prize seed potatoes, in proof of which he has been showing five of the tubers in a local furniture store window. One of these sets on a family scale and weighs exactly 2 pounds. High and Low Grain Prices. On July 15, when the speculative wheat market was opened after being closed for three years, December wheat sold up to $2.75 per bushel. I since mat aate it made a recent low Vanted 24 cents, reaching $2.10 at Chicago on Tuesday of this week. During the life of the December corn option it has had a range of 80 cents, from a high of $1.59 to a low of 79 cents, the close on Tuesday being 8214c The range on December oats this season has been 33 cents, the high being 8514 and the low 52. The close on this option was but 54 on Tuesday, which shows that oats are still close to the low point. Hogs Decline For 11 Days. After a continuous decline for eleven Distinction in Dress
