FOUND NOT GUILTY OF LIQUOR VIOLATION Everett R. Stephenson, proprietor of a cigar store at 823 North E street, was found not guilty of violating the state liquor law by a jury in Wayne circuit court Monday morning. The verdict was in accord with a motion by Presocutor Paul Beckett that a verdict of not guilty be returned after the jury, prosecutor and defendant visited the store where the liquor was found. Absence of the principal witness for the state was given as the cause for the motion to' dismiss the case. The raid on the cigar store was conducted in March under the supervision of Major Davis, a federal prohibition officer. Major Davis was the one" who had found the alleged liquor. Since the date of the raid Mr. Davis has quit the federal service and hence did not appear as a witness. None of the other officers making the raid was able to state definitely concerning the bottle of liquor found at the store. CANCEL STEAMER'S SAILING (By Associated Press) LONDON.

Hockett, manager of the elevator at Fountain City, stated on Monday morning that they were paying $1.24 for wheat; 65 cents per hundredweight for corn, and 34 cents per bushel for oats. Mr. Hockett says that plowing is pretty well under way at this time, and that so far as he knows, all oats have been sown. He says that some of the farmers are afraid that they have planted oats too early, that, of course, depending on the weather from now on. it not being thought that oats are injured materialvanced at tne mines 25 cents per ton con-iwUliin a week.

WINTER WHEAT, RYE SHOW BIG INCREASE; LABOR SUPPLY GROWS The condition of winter wheat in Indiana shows an increase of 30 points over the April 1 condition of 1920 and rye shows a gain of 12 points, while hrpp.linfr rows fihow a flpcline nf 10 per cent for the same period, according to the report of the co-operating crop reporting service of Indiana, issued Monday. The farm labor supPb" is greater than the demand be cause of changed methods of farming, low prices for farm products and improved machinery for facilitating the work. The report follows: The condition of winter heat April 1. was 89 per cent of normal and in - dicates a total production of approxl - mately 32,600,000 bushels for the state. Last year the condition was 59 per cent of normal and the 10-year average is 83 per cent. There was 1 qm nnn arc ooh i,ct faili,o ',1. hom ahan'nnoH nr )n - ; ntW Prnn hnt thi i Tint dvtpnftlvp anfl nrpswit in-' dications of abandonment loss seem to be very small. Weather Favorable. The weather has been very favorable and late sown wheat has made a wonderful improvement over the December condition. The early sown, however, was badly damaged by Hessian fly and at this time is in rather poor condition. Chinch bugs and joint worms also are working in the early cron. Some damage is reportec? from high water, but is not extensive. Rye shows a somewhat better condition than wheat, being 92 per cent of normal, compared with 80 per cent of a year ago and 88 per cent for the 10year average. A slight increase in acreage w-as shown last fall; the tolal being 335.000 acres, practically all of which will b harvested. The total indicated production at this time is slightly in excess of 5.000 bushels for the state. Sows Decrease. The number of breeding sows have decreased 10 per cent compared with a year aeo. It is estimated that there are 488.700 in the state at this time. The demand for good sows is increasing and with a fairly steady market it looks as though the number should begin to increase slightly and with a better grade of stock. Many of the poorer grade were fattened and sold for meat purposes during the winter. Spring litters seem to be somewhat larger than usual and the pigs are strong and healthy. The farm labor supply in the state has reached nearly a normal stage again, being 14 per cent greater than a year ago. The demand, however, is not as great as in former years. Many farmers have changed their methods of farming by which means thev can do a great deal more of their work. Improved farm machinery has had considerable inflenc on the labor demand and supply and the low prices farmers I are receiving for their products also ! has a tendency to keep hired labor at the lowest possible point. The per cent of supply this year is 114 compared with a year ago and the demand is only 85 per cent compared with , last year. j I Farm Sale Calendar ! Wednesday.
