GRAIN PRICES . . .Furnlthed by E. W. WAGNER & CO., 212 Union National Bank Building CHICAGO. Oct 20. Wheat should ' be due for good rallies at these levels, but the bulges of today were only " . nominal. Bears count on large Canadian receipts for another ten days. No news on the rail strike, and it may be ; Saturday before anything definite. ; Bulls say wheat will rally five to 10 cents if there is uo strike. Corn acts well. Over night we may expect more hesitation in wheat., but we believe "the markets should develop some kick from these levels. RANGE OF FUTURES Furnished by E. W.

King farm Wednesday kent the auctioneers busy until lamplight. As was stated Wednesday, a large crowd was present, regardless of the rain. There was a raft of chattels on offer and a review of the sale sheets shows that the sale ranks with the "good ones" of the present season. The total of the chattels was $3,780, and it was conceded that, in view of present conditions and market values of live stock, very fair prices were realized. Mr. King expressed satisfaction at the result. Cattle and Hogs Among the buyers of live stock were: Arthur Curme, bow and pigs, $50; H. C. Smith, pen of pigs, $141; Milo Brumfield, pen of feeders. $105.85; Will Wright, pen of feeders, $122.40; Omar Whelan, four sows at $25.25 each. Mr. Whelan also bought some young heifers. Thirteen head of cattle went over looking milker at $60. In the horse ring Ben Foreman bid a black eelding up to $lo0 and a

brown mare to $170. O. Ketron gotlmond Schindler, Everett Oldham &

a mare with colt at side for $150, and j Bob Lashley garnered in a brown Eeldinsr at $75. But six horses went under the hammer. Jack Maher picked up a few head of hogs, also took the small bunch of sheep at $6 for the ewes. Implements Not High , In these days, so far away from the spring farm work, implements are not in as brisk demand as they will be later. Then, too, the value of an Implement depends upon condition and j service. Fred Hartman paid ror the spreader; Frank strayer, who picked up a number of items, paid $22 for the hay tedder, got a drill at $32 and a better one at $40. . . The two lots of hay in the barn sold at from $9.50 to $11.50 per ton and was divided among a number of buyers. A Bid of $140 Per Acre. Mr. W J. Hall of Richmond, was the high bidder on the King farm of 167 acres, a well improved property. There were several bidders early, or during the "first round," after which a recess was taken. The sale was reopened during the afternoon and toward the top but two bidders contended, W. J. Hall and Ben Foreman. Mr. Hall's final bid of $140 per acre was high, Mr. Foreman dropping out. In a chat with Mr. Hall Thursday morning, that gentleman stated that he had "bid it in for other parties." DOCTORS' ATTENTION GALLED TO REGULATION Dr. J. M. Bulla, county health com missioner, received the following or-j der from the Indiana state board of health regarding regulations which physicians are asked to observe in ! diphtheria quarantine cases: i "No release cultures are to be taken until the quarantine card has been up seven days.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

Our farmers will have observed that in the late downward trend of prices for wheat, corn and oats, our local buying prices have held Eteady. Each of these grains have been selling at unchanged figures for quite a long time. Bowen Brothers, at Crete, Ind., have just completed a 36x40 building for the handling of feed, seeds, etc, and have installed both corn sheller and feed grinder for the benefit of their farm trade. Eggs are dearer in Richmond, owing to scarcity of fresh receipts from farm flocks. Local merchants advanced their buying price to 50 cents per dozen, on Wednesday, the highest figure in many months. To Let the Bill Ride President Griffin, of the Chicago Board of Trade, says that there is no basis for the rumor that the board was preparing to attack the constitu tionality of the Capper-Tincner Diw. He said that, such procedure would be against the best interests of the exchange. The Best and Only i An old farmer's daughter-in-law, living in town, was intent on buying a family dishwashing machine, if one of suitable size could be purchased. On discussing this idea with the old man he remarked: "I kin remember the time when the best and only dishwashing machine I knowed anything about was the mother of six children. An' we had mighty nice clean dishes at that, Marjorie," she changed the subject. The Lowest of the Year When strike news and other unfavorable influence dropped the bottom out of the market on Tuesday, wheat struck the'low of the year, also hn several years. At the low of $1.05 for December and $1.09 for May, wh were off 10 cents from Monday's plies compared with cash demand, winninear. the DrinciDal speculative Winnipeg, the principal speculative Canadian point, has been receiving tremedous amounts of wheat, so much so that its former high premiums have been lost and that market is now about on a parity with Chicago, on spring wheat Bad as was the break In grains on Tuesday, more folowed on Wednes day, when December wheat toucaed $1.03!4 and May a flat $1.08 at the low. In ordinary circumstances a quick rebound from Tuesday's 10 cent break could have been counted on for Wednesday morning. The late break in corn and oats is trifling, compared with wheat. A Pessimistic Governor. Governor N. E. Kendal, of Iowa, addressed a conference of governors and industrial commissioners from four middle-western states at Des Moines on Tuesday. The conference was called to devise measures for the relief of farmers and the consideration of the unemployment problems of the people of that territory. The governor was most pessimistic, and said, in part: "It is common knowledge that during the years 1920 and 1921 the farmers of the Mississippi valley have prosecuted their enterprise at a substantial loss, and the consequence has been that everywhere in the grain belt, agriculture is paralyzed, business is stagnant and idleness general. All are agreed that something must be done without delay to relieve a situation that prefigures bankruptcy, but nobody has evolved a concrete program through which relief can be obtained immediately." One-Fourth Were Slackers. Complete returns have been received as to the culling demonstrations made in 70 Ohio counties during the summer. These show that these were held on 2.348 farms, were witnessed by nearly 54,000 persons, and that about 250,000 hens were involved. According to the returns: "An even 25 per cent of the hens culled were sold, at a large cash return, and a great saving in feeding costs of the flocks." 0 Apples Fancy Indiana Favorites per bushel $000 FANCY TURNIPS, per bu 75c 50c 90c 10 BARS LENOX SOAP for 24 lbs.

The culling process is a simple matter, and one easily learned. Cattle Supply Below Normal. .Movements of young and unfinished cattle from Iowa farms to the slaughter pens has depleted the live stock supply below normal, according to reports to the Iowa Bankers' association. The credit stringency, it is said, has caused an "uneconomical" movement of the stock.
