After Ten Years , By MARION RUB1NCAM j

MOVING IN Chapter 35 As -Millie had once remarked, "when Humphrey makes up Ms mind, things liappen-.w--In. this case things begun happening almost at once. Patty and Mrs. Parke went home Mrs. Parke to sit In Pattys room talking and occasionally weeping over the dreadful fact that .m.qst, .of. their, .money; was" lost, until the hall clock struck two warning bells.... . Millie and Humphrey did not think of fijeep. for hours. Millie was inclined to sulk, but Humphrey deliberately-took ho notice of this attitude.

Sulking -was no new mood to him, with Millie and Patty had suggested that perhaps a little misfortune would be good for her. Humphrey hoped so he was determined to believe so. 'I'm half starved," he began manlike thinking of food as an excuse for cheerfulness and a little diversion to the otherwise sodden gloom of the

evening. 'Don't you think you could rustle up a few eats somewhere?" "Eats! Food! That's all you can think of!" came scornfully from the rednosed bundle In the armchair. "Well, it's' most midnight and I did not eat much supper excuse me, I mean dinner." Humphrey answered, propitiating his wife by comforming to her new name for the evening meal. "Dinner, supper I don't suppose it makes much difference what we call It now," she accented the "now."

"We'll be lucky if we have any thing

to eat at all." "Oh, it won't he that bad. Now come on. let's have some eggs and coffee. I'll cut thfe bread."

Tie moved off to the kitchen, keep

ing up his cheer with his determination.

. Millie stuffed her wet handkerchief into her belt, and pulled herself out of

the chair to follow him. Perhaps she did notice that his back bent unusually far as he walked and that while cutting terribly thick slices of soggy fresh white bread, he grew absent minded now and then, and cut up the whole loaf before ehe came along to stop him. Wissakeagan made coffee whenever it had an excuse, and sometimes when it had not. Humphrey could drink three cups, hot and strong, at an evening party, and sleep none the worse for it. Millie theoretically disapproved of this "countrified" habit though her skin showed a sallow tinge that might easily show she disapproved and partook at the same time. But the hot food and drink were

what they needed now. Even Millie drew ud the corners of her mouth a

little. Her eyelids were red and swollen, her brown eyes somehow were lost sight of behind them. "Goes to the spot, this does," Humphrey said, wondering whether he dared eat up the last tempting bit of egg with his crust of bread a habit always tolerated in the privacy of his home before Millie "got new fangled ideas." Millie looked so softened and crushed and dampened by the evening's news that he decided his lapse from good manners would pass unnoticed. He ate the very last bit of bread and egg, and pulled out his pencil marked slip. "Look here, it's not so worse," he began, his slang showing that he was feeling better. "We can manage fine.

Now, Patty thiniks that if we sell moth

er's house and the car, and cut down on expenses we can manage. Bridget is leaving anyway, and if mother finds another job for Bessie " "You know how much work she can i do and Patt.y was never trained for

housework," lillie objected. "Well, but you see, Patty thinks if we all liye over here, there'll be three of you women to manage the house " "They move here!"

"Your own family don't you want

them?"

"Well, you'll be glad to have Patty

around anyway, I notice you always cheer up when she comes over!" Mil

lie could have bitten her tongue till it bled for that remark, but it came out. She wasn't jealous of Patty or was she? What did she care whether Humphrey liked Patty as well, or better, than he liked her? She did not care

for him! And she sincerely loved her young sister. But Humphrey was answering: "Now you mention it, I always do! It's nice to see someone now and then

that hasn't a grouch on all the time." He was about to elaborate on this interesting side of the conversation. Then he remembered that Millie had put up with a lot that evening, so he changed his tone, and began again "You'll like it. It'll be company around the house when I'm at the office. Mother can have that blue room,

and Patty the one with the roses on the paper mother can bring over her furniture for her room, so she'll ft el at home " He went on, planning thoughtful little details to make these two women comfortable. He was responsible for their sudden poverty, he was now trying to arrange for their comfort. Millie sat silent. All next day, suit cases of clothes kept coming over, and special pieces of furniture and rugs Mrs. Parke's

treasures. Millie was so busy she forgot to lament. It was not until that next night that Humphrey dared tell her Patty was to work in his office. Monday New Ways

The bulge in wheat at Chicago on Friday, particularly in the May option, started prices upward again at our country elevators. Charles Carpenter, of Richmond, advanced his A buying price on wheat to $1.35 on Friday forenoon, this being the local high spot

in several months. To country mills and elevators the price on the various options is not nearly so important as are current cash bids on car lots. The spot market on No. 2 red advanced to $1.50 and $1.51 at Cincinnati on Friday, while No. 3 was salable at as high as $1.48 during the day. Number 2 "hard" wheat brought $1.45 and better on the sample tables at Chicago, on Friday. Red and springs advanced from three cents to three and one-half cents at Chicago on the day. Corn and oats also made gains.

The manager of the flour mill at

Hagerstown said that they had taken in a few loads of wheat within the past week at an average of $1.30 a bushel, but expected to pay more should any be delivered on Saturday. He said they shipped some wheat to

Baltimore during the winter, and had it stored. On an earlier bulge of about nine cents a bushel they had sold it out and the deal showed a reasonable profit. No corn or oats have been

offered at Hagerstown for some time. Pay $1.35 at Camden. The Eikenberry elevator at Camden reported a few loads of wheat taken

in at $1.35 on Friday, also said they were paying 65 cents for com and that

it was moving rather freely just now

Very few oats weie grown around

Camden last year, and the tendency this spring has been to increase the

acreage, as evidenced by the sales of seed oats by the local elevators. A car of wheat was shipped by the Eikenberry elevator on Friday, and another expected to go out on Saturday evening it was stated. "We have been paying $1 30 for wheat for several days," said the man

ager of the mill at College Corner, "but advanced our price to $1.35 on Friday. If the advance in the cash markets holds and any wheat comes in on" Saturday we shall go still higher, possibly up to $1.38," said he, on Friday evening. Reports from various elevators In the local area were in line with what

has been said, advances being noted in all cases. The trade realizes, however, that a "squeeze" in the May option may not mean permanently higher prices on cash grain. May being the great speculative month of the year. It is worthwhile stating that, as a rule, both cash and May wheat Usually advance during the first 20 days of May. Not always, 'tis true, but has been true in most instances during the past 25 years, prices compared

with the first day of the month. This hint is given for what it may be worth. H. L. Welch, better known to his friends aa Moody -Welch, is the manager of the elevator at Crete, in Ran

dolph county. Mr. Welch dropped in to see - us on Friday, and the usual discussion of farm topics, the course of the markets, etc., : ensued. ,Mr. Welch said that their elevator was now owned by an incorporation with

ard ration, was corn (shelled basis) 8.2, cottonseed meal 1.3, roughage 3.3 and silage, 28.1, while on the second ration was corn 8.3, roughage 3.6 and silage 23. Crop Price Declines The department of agriculture has given out its estimates of the value of our farm crops in 1921 and places the total valuation at $12,366,000,000.

This is surely a tidy sum, but at that is but little more than one-half the amount realized on the crop grown In 1919. Further, this was but about two-thirds of the aggregate value of the crops and live stock produced in 1920. which was $18,263,000,000.

During this period, 1919-'21, produc-

els for reseeding. He claims that farmers around Crete have had no unusual losses of spring pigs this sea

son. That Indiana cattle feeders fully appreciate the economy effected by the use of Bilage is very clear when a study is made of the rations fed on the farms on which cost records on

fattening cattle have been kept for the past two years by the farmers and men from the farm management department of Purdue. One hundred and forty farmers out

of 186 on whose farms records were secured, used silage. . Ninety-f ive out

of the 186, fed a ration of corn, cottoaseed meal,, silage, and some kind of roughage which included clover hay, alfalfa, mixed hay, timothy, corn stover, or straw. This is the type of ration that has generally proved most profitable in the steer feeding experiment conducted by the Purdue exepriment station for the past 15 years. The next most com

mon ration used was similar to thet one mentioned, with the exception:

that no cottonseed meal was fed. The gain on cattle receiving the standard ration was 1.65 pounds per head per day, while the cattle receiving no cottonseed meal made 1.42 pounds per head per day. The aver

age number of pounds of feed consumed per head per day for the entire feeding period for cattle on the stand-

quantity of corn production in 1919

was about the same during the preceding eeverr years, that in 1920 was the largest ever recorded, and that in 1921 was the lowest since 1913. The total value of crops declined from $15,423,000,000 in 1919 to $10, 909.000,000 in 1920, and to -$7,028,000,-000 in 1921. The decline of the total

value of an:mal products Qn the farm was from $8,361,000,000 in 1919 to $7,354,000,000 in 1920, and to $5,339,000,000 in 1921.

NEW'S FRIENDS SAY RENOMINATE SUREINDIANAPOLIS. April 22. At the conference of Republicans in the interest of the candidacy of United

States .Senator New, reports were re

ceived from nearly every county and

from all congressional districts In Indiana. These reports, according to the statement given out by the members of Senator New's organization, show that Senator New will be renominated at the primary May 2 by a large majority. According to the estimates for Marion county alone, including Indianapolis, Senator New will have betwen 10,000 and 15,000 majority. Reports from all counties excepting one in the Sixth congressional district showed that Senator New will carry the district, despite the early claims of his opponents. This district, one of the big Republican sections of Indiana, is composed of Wayne, Union, Henry, Hancock, Franklin, Shelby, Fayette and Rush counties. The drift toward Senator New during the last month which has been manifest in the state generally, Sen

ator's New's friends say, makes it appear certain that he will be renominated by his party on May 2.

y M-nooi Togetner with a host of Mr. Dickey's friends are ex
