liKAiiN PRICES Furnished by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank , BuildincCHICAGO, March 23. Grain markets show ho relief from strain of bulge sale factors. Export sales attract little attention. The outside has refused to buy wheat. Flour users refuse to load up. Winter wheat looks around 90 per cent with a 650,000,000 April promise. Green bug alarm is a failure. As a climax Broomhall says England owns 68,000,444 million wheat in hand or to arrive. Bulls depend on March wheat position and apparently there is little incentive to take in cash wheat at the end of March and hold. This bear market may run irregularly until the usual April softness is discounted. Overnight a dip with covering over the Good Friday holiday is suggested. RANGE OF FUTURES Furnished by E. W.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. 8anbern,

As can readily be discovered on ! reading our market page the Chicago Board of Trade Is still a going concern and evidently expects to be for some time, as it agains offers $10,000 to be distributed in prizes at the 1921 grain and hay show. This donation, the same amount as given by the board last year, was announced at a meeting of state representatives at the Saddle and Sirloin club, at Chicago, on Monday. Saddle and Sirloin club. What do you know about that for a name? Doesn't It suggest good things to eat. properly cooked and served? Well, anyway, the donation announcement was applauded. It went well with the food and lent joy to the occasion. Prof. Christie, of Purdue, who has had charge of the International Grain and Hay show, from its inception as a permanent feature of the International Live Stock exposition, met with the state delegates from Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. School Children to Exhibit. "We are starting at the beginning of the cropping season to give farmers time to plant their crops and raise samples of grain and hay of better quality," Prof Christie said. "We hope to give the farmers ample time to cut their hay, at the proper time and preserve samples for the show." A new feature will be classes for boys' and girls' clubs. Youngsters in vocation schools and clubs will be encouraged to make exhibits and special prizes will be offered. Special emphasis will be placed on the soy bean exhibits. The crop is now so extensive among corn belters that prizes will be offered in three sections. Sow Spring Wheat Now. If you have considered April the ideal month in which to sow spring wheat, sow it now. The earlier you can sow it, the better, for the earlier it is sown, the greater the yield. The best crops so far grown in the states bordering the lakes, have been planted late in March, whenever conditions permitted. Farmers in northern Illinois and in Michigan have proved that early sowing pays. But little spring wheat is grown in Wayne and nearby counties, but to those ho do LITTLE DAMAGE DONE BY TUESDAY FROST Reports of effects of the low temperature of Tuesday night are reassuring, as apparently very little damage was done. Fruit buds were not well enough opened to be exposed to damage, and only apricots ana possibly early blooming strawberries were harmed. Possibilities of injury to early seeded clover was keeping farmers on the uneasy seat Wednesday morning, but inquiry and investigation developed the fact that little injury had been done there. The temperature was below freezing, according to reports from Hill's greenhouses, going as low as 27 degrees. The surface of the ground froze lightly, which was the basis of nervousness about new seedings of clover. "I am afraid apricots are hurt," said Walter Ratliff, a Wayne township fruit grower, Wednesday morning. "They have been in bloom for some time, and possibly early blooming strawberries are hurt also, but all other fruit I believe, is unharmed, as no fruit buds were opened. Apples, peaches, cherries and plums are safe, as are the bush fruits also." This was also the opinion of Stephen Kuth of the State Line Fruit farm. Buds were not yet out far enough to be hurt, he said. "Peaches are damaged in some places, but that is from winterkilling rather than from this last cold snap. No small or bush fruits are forward enough either, to have been injured." POLAND BREEDERS TO ASSIST PIG CLUBS CENTERVILLE, Ind., March 23. Further arrangements for co-operating with the county farm bureau in pig club work in accordance with the decision of the last meeting, were made at the meeting of the Wayne county Poland China Breeders' association here Tuesday night. The county agent, J. L. Dolan, was present at the request of the association to assist in working out plans for the club work, and explained the state requirements and the action that has been taken by other associations. The members in attendance voted to lower the age limit to the tenth year for the Poland China breed, and the president was given power to appoint a committee which should select enough pigs of the breed to supply all boys and girls in club work who prefer Poland ChiDas. All pigs will be uniform, and drawing will be by lot, so that no injustice can be done. The meeting strongly favored making the club work educational and aiming to develop breeding stock, rather than allowing it to become a feeding contest. A sale at the end of the season will be arranged, when children wishing to realize money on their pigs may do so, but no pigs may be listed that are not actually sold. Distribution of the pigs probably will be during the last week of May, and no boys or girls may enter pig club work after the drawings have been held Women in Holland will vote in the parliamentary election in 1922 for the first time.

plant It, this Idea will be of interest. There Is far less danger of "puddling" when the soil ,1s cut up and seeded early than there is when the work Is done later. Co-Operative Shipping. Representatives of the various cooperative live stock shipping associations of Indiana met at Indianapolis last Friday to select a committee of five to study all the related problems of the business. It was decided to allow the executive committee of the state federation to name this committee and the names of those who are to serve will be presently announced. The committee will study the problem of the co-operative shipping of live stock, propose uniform constitutions and by-laws for the associations, recommend a uniform accounting system and make other recommendations for the conduct of such co-operative enterprises. The committee's report will be made to the farmers' federation and to the several shipping associations throughout the state. Dean Skinner, of Purdue, says: "These associations seem to be the beginning of a better system of marketing. They will educate the farmers and encouiage them to study marketing methods and practices. While it is true that the people of China are "rice-eaters," they grow sweet potatoes in every part of the empire, and these form a staple part of their diet. The sweet potalo is a most nutritious vegetable and one which more of our farmers can cultivate to advantage, if not as a cash crop, at least in the farm garden. Tomaoes by the Ton. A number of tests has proven that the application of eight tons of stable manure per acre has increased the yield of tomatoes from 150 to 160 per cent. Tests have shown that the most gains for the large field or cannery crops was produced by acid phosphate. Commercial fertilizers also induce an early crop and in tests, completely fertilized land matured tomatoes from three to four weeks earlier than did the same class of unfertilized soil. This is a pointer fcr the back yard gardner who wants plenty of tomatoes. A few pounds of fertilizer will do the work. GRAIN PRICE DECLINE, DIVERSION OF PUBLIC FUNDS, SUSPEND BANKS (By Associated Press) ST. LOUIS, March 23. Financial conditions throughout the middle west were outlined here today by delegates at the closing session of the tenth annual conference of presidents, vice presidents and secretaries of the central states' bankers' association. Numerous bank suspensions occur ring in North Dakota were caused in part, by the diverting of public funds, according to W. C. McFadden, of Fargo, N. D.. secretary of the North Dakota bankers' association, who addressed the conference. The heavy decline in the price of grain was another factor, he amplified. McFadden explained that the law which created the bank of North Dakota designated it as the repository for all public funds. "This included not only state, county and municipal funds but those of the state university, school of forestry and other public institutions," he said. "As a result, the treasurers of these had no control over the funds." Approximately $3,000,000 of the public funds was diverted to investment in mortgage loans, and $1,000,000 for ! a mill and elevator, he continued, add- ! ing: "This upset the financial and business structure of the state."

Seek to Cut the Loss in Apple Shipments (By Associated Press) t , WASHINGTON, March 23. Representatives of the bureau of markets have been accompanying shipments of apples In the export trade in an effort to cut down the loss which exporters are incurring, it was said today at the department of agriculture. This loss, it was estimated now runs from 25 to 35 percent and in some cases reaches 50 percent. It Is due largely it was said, to improper packing, incorrect handling an unfavorable transportation conditions. LIBERAL SHIPMENT OF GRAIN ASSURED Well over the minimum carload of 1,000 bus-hels are assured for the col lections of gift corn for foreign famine relief, according to the rate at which contributions are coming in, Fay those in charge of the collection. About 700 bushels were sent into Richmond Tuesday, Webster and Wayne townships only delivering that day. Today Franklin, New Garden, and Boston townships are delivering, and their corn will make a total of around 1,200 bushels for the Richmond car. Robert Haas, who was in charge at the Richmond Roller Mills Wednesday morning, was elated by the way corn was rolling into the sheller from the farmer's wagons and trucks. The last load Tuesday was hauled through Main street bearing a banner, which today is displayed on the car, with the lerend, "Gift Corn for Foreign Famine Re!ief, from the Wayne County Farm Bureau." Charles Carpenter, of the Richmond Mills, is making a substantial donation in the form of power and man labor for the oDeration of th cheiiar and elevators which are handling and toaaing me corn, it has been necessary to shut down operation of the mills for the two days in order to use the employes on the work, and operation of the machinery has been continuous for the two days. Carpenter and his milJe are proud of the way the mill is handling the corn, this being the heaviest demand that has yet been made on the machinery, according to them. Several trucks are hauling the corn free or at nominal charges, and the telephone company is putting through free of charge all long distance calls that refer to gift corn.
