GRAIN PRICES (Markets by E. F. Leland & Company, 212 Union Bank Building.) CHICAGO, April 4. Wheat was unsettled all day, lth highest price. shortly after the opening and lowest near the close. The local element waa short at the mart and started to cover, finding offerings light. At the outside May touched $1.35, which was IV c over yesterday's finish, but the market became over-bought and when the early buyers tried to sell out they found support lacking.. There was selling of May an buying of July by commission nouses which narrowed the difference to around 14c against 15c early in the day. Export demand was generally slow. Liverpool closed unchanged after being threo-suarters lower early. Wet weather keeps up in the southwest, with more forecast for today and tomorrow. Looks like that section had plenty of rain. The weather reports trom the southwest were very decidedly mixed. Not much change in cash prices. Corn Corn was higher early with wheat, but failed to hold its advance, the close being near the low of the day. The continued wet weather Is a factor in receipts of corn. Export demand for corn at the seaboard was reported slow. Cash markets onequarter to one cent higher. Supplies of corn are liberal. Oats Oats followed other grains practically all day. There was a little amount of exchanging between May and July at difference of 2c. Cash prices steady. Weather unfavorable for field work.

LANDIS HAPPY AFTER HIS TOUR OF CAMPS (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, April 4. Kennesaw M. Landls, baseball commissioner, was back in Chicago today from what he

described as "the best vacation I ever had." He has beon making a tour of the spring training camps of the major league baseball teams. The commissioner declared that he had never enjoyed pleasures more than during the last few weeks, which he spent picking oranges and star baseball players, and accumulating a coat of tan preliminary to opening of the tan season in the north. "There i3 more enthusiasm than ever for baseball," Commissioner Landis declared. William Veeck, president of the Chicago Nationals, also returned from

Catalina Island. Caiif., where his team has been working out this spring.

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN Great Britain's best bacon hogs will

compete in the show ring at the Chi

cago International next December, says Frank S. Springer, secretary of the American Berkshire association. Mr. Springer has forwarded entry blanks and rules to the Britishers, and

he says that the difference of type of Berkshires "is not expected to deter them in their efforts to demonstrate to our breeders what has proved the greatest bacon and ham producer in the old country-" Mr. Springer states that the English Berkshire has carried off the honors at the Smithfield show every year since 1906, the dato of the first show. The fact that the Berkshire in America will celebrate Its 100th birth

day anniversary next year may account partially for the "hands-across-the-sea" move of the Berkshire hog, or

it may be the "international sporting" blood of the English-speaking nations manifesting a desire for more trophies. However, most Berkshire men look upon it as a desire of the old country breeders to follow up the introduction of new blood used so successfully in one of the larger corn belt herds. Wheat Grade Changes They are holding .a conference in Washington to determine whether any changes shall be made this year in the established grades of wheat.. The special committee to consider this matter conducted a thorough investigation

and reported to Secretary Wallace last

summer. The secretary then announced that sufficient evidence had not been offered to justify him in making any changes in the present grades. Millers, grain buyers and dealers agreed in this. The demand for changes has come largely from "state officials who have to do grading in Minnesota, and from a few farm organizations in thf northwest. The trade in general seems satisfied with existing grades. An optimistic Indiana editor finely much satisfaction in the business out

look and particularly so as it relates to the purchasing power of the farmer because of the advance made in farm products. This Is what he said in the opening paragraph of an editorial devoted to this subject: "One of the most encouraging Indications of returning prosperity and tho

JACKSON TOWNSHIP EXCEEDS QUOTA FOR CO-OPERATIVE FIRM

An over-subscription to the co-operative live stock commission firm at Indianapolis was made by the Jackson township farmers' association at the meeting Monday night, after explanation of the company had been given by County Agent J.
