News still runs in favor of the bear side with demoralized condition of commodity markets abroad and weakness in Minneapolis the leading factors. Whether cancelling of wheat order with Italy was at her request is not known. Rallies are feeble in grain, both corn and wheat being pressed by hedging sales. Argentine wheat figures 2i cents below United States. Locals favor selling on any closing bulge. RANGE OF FUTURES Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank Building. CHICAGO, Jan. 19.

NEW GARDEN FARMERS CONSIDER FERTILIZER FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind., Jan. 19. Plans for handling a fertilizer pool of farmers of New Garden township featured the meeting of the Farmers federation of that place held Tuesday evening. Members of the organization decided to turn the matter over to the Fountain City Elevator company, paying them seven per cent commission for their services. This pooi will probably be combined with the Franklin township pool. In discussing the plans of the state effice, it was pointed out that prices will not have to be accepted when orders are sent. Orders may be rescinded, if prices quoted by the state office, are not satisfactory to the county committee. Arrangements for a clean-up membership drive also were completed at the meeting. The drive is to be held Monday, Jan. 24, with two or three cars of four men each in use. A thorough canvass of the entire township v. ill be made on that. day. Orders were given to the county agents for enough return cards to be printed to cover the township. These card3 will be sent to each man and will state the plans for ordering fertilizer and have a space for filling out tonnage, analysis, brand preferred and place of delivery, with name and address of consignee. POSTOFFIGE RECEIPTS INCREASE DURING 1920 With over 11,000 money orders sold during the past year, and approximately $571,588 received from money orders, the quarterly report of the Richmond postofftce shows that practically every department of the post office business has developed a substantial ! increase during the past year. The I ngures ror me years receipts irora money orders are obtained by multiplying the $142,897 received in the last quarter of 1920 by four. In March, 1?20, ihe local office ceased to become the accounting office for thirteen smaller offices in the county and their receipts were sent, direct to Indianapolis. Despite this fact, the volume of business in the last cuiarter of 1920 done by the Richmond oftice shows a decided incrpase over the same period in 1919. Money orders paid out in 1920 numbered 7,979 and 3,105 of these were in the last quarter. Orders issued during the last quarter numbered 3,535 in number and amounted to a total of $33.f;48.26. Total receipts of the Richmond office amounted to $162,639 during the past year, according to a statement Issued some time ago. Shriners Charter Cars for Trip to Cambridge City Two hundred Zem Zem Shriners from Richmond, Liberty, and Eaton will be guests of Cambridge City Shriners at. a dinner and dance Friday evening. The majority of those going will be from Richmond it is reported. Two special interurbans will leave at 6:15 o'clock to take the members of the local Zem Zem Shrine club to Cambridge City. The dinner begins at 7 o'clock. Arrangements have been made to have the returning interurbans go east on Main street as far as Twenty-third street. All Shriners wrhc have not sent their acceptance cards to the recorder, E. W. Allen, are requested to do so at once. Circuit Court Motion for a new trial for James Coff, restaurant owner, who was found guilty of keeping a resort for the purpose of people resorting to drink intoxicating liquor, by a jury in Wayne circuit court last week, was filed by Attorney Lindemuth in Wayne circuit court Wednesday morning. No argument on the motion was held the court overruling the motion. An appeal to the supreme court will be taken it is understood. Coff will be released on a $500 cash bond, it was stated. William Glover, of Marion, was fined $3 and costs in Wayne circuit court Wednesday morning for hopping a freight train. The new testament was first divided into verses by Robert Stevens, a JPrench printer, in 1551.

Monday, and in spite of the fact that noth Armour and Swift, refused to bid for hogs until nearly 2 o'clock, hogs advanced as 'much as 20' cents over. Saturday's figures, the bulk of sales going at $9.25 to $9.75, with Swift; bidding $9.80 for light bacon weights as soon as he -went into action. We submit that these prices cannot be called "ruinous," except by comparison with the palmy days, in view of present prices of corn and feed stuffs. We are not forgetting, how-j ever, that these hogs were mostly de-i vourers of a goodly percentage of $2 corn, but were certainly finished on' much lower cost grain. An Editorial Prophet.

The price comparisons we are now to make have caused a thousand arguments. to which we shall attempt no additions, the facts adduced being suf - ficient for our present purpose. Compared with the first week of the year cattle at $8.90 showed a loss of 25 cents; hogs at $9.25 were off 45 cents; lambs at $11 were 20 cents lower, while sheep at $5.25 actually showed a gain of 85 cents per hundred pounds, for the week. These were the combined "average" prices, covering the highs and lows of the. six-day range, ending Jan. 15. Compared With 1920. Takins backward glance to the sec ond week in January. 1920, we find that cattle averaged $14: hogs $14.85: sheen $11.25 and lambs $19.20 at Chi cago, and were on a relative basis in all other markets, bom t-asi ana wst It is worth while noting that the "average" price of cattle in the 14 principal markets, last week, was: . i i t- n A clnia Anril 191R.
