Markets GRAIN PRICES (Muriels Dy E. F. Lelac &. Com'jany. 212 Union National Ban Building) CHICAGO 111.. Julv 18. Wheat Wheat started strong on buying, encouraged by yesterday's Increased ex port Duslness, and the fact that Liverpool did not show much decline as expected. Alter the start there was selling and there -was a setback because of more favorable crop news, especially from the northwest, but the market rallied on buying by houses with eastern connections and shorts. The market, as a whole, however, was rather small and the range of prices was not large with the close, at small advance from the low of the day. Cash market was steady to about 3 lower. Country offerings light and while receipts here are liberal, 25 to 50 per cent or the arrivals are applied on previous sales. A house with southwestern connections sold 100,000 bushels to go to store at $1.15. Contract stocks are 828,000 bushels from last week. Reports of car shortage become increasingly numerous late in the day. There were export bids today, but no business done as far as known. Corn There was some pressure on December again today and that delivery sold at an increased discount under the nearer deliveries. Trade was not large. Seaboard exporters were after corn here, but offerings were Iighte. -Weather conditions generally favorable. Cash market unchanged to H4c lower. Oats Trade was fairly active, but mostly In small lots. Prices held within a comparatively narrow range and followed other grains. Cash market unchanged to-lc lower. Buying of December and selling of September at 3 cents difference by changers was a feature of the market. , RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by E. F.

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn

The meeting of farm f ederationists

I VAIilE at the courthouse last Saturday.500 Per bu.. linseed oil cake $50. per

evening was representative of the brain and brawn of the tillers of the soil in Wayne county. The leaders of the farm bureau in the various townships were out in force. They were present with a set purpose. They came to town from all points of the compass for the express purpose of endorsing J. L. Dolan for re-election as county agent. Moreover, they wished to discover why, and on what grounds, any member or members of the county board of education were opposing Mr. Dolan's re-election, and on what they based their fight. And they wanted to learn if it was true as reported that certain Richmond organizations which are conspicious in print from day-to-day. had really voiced any objections to Dolan, upon any grounds whatsoever? Nothing was brought out at the meeting to confirm such charges. One well known banker and an official of one of the organizations, said that their organization ignored the religious or political affiliations of their members, and had no controversy with any man on these two grounds. Furthermore, that county agent Dolan is a member of said club, in which he has many warm personal friends. But why threshout old straw. A report of the meeting on Saturday night appeared in the Palladium on Monday. If overlooked it can still be referred to by interested farmers. Then, too, the members of the board of education are billed to meet on Thursday. July 20th, to vote on the retention or rejection of Mr. Dolan as county agent. In the meanwhile every township trustee is a member of this official board and every last man of them are to be personally interviewed by members of farm bureau committees, resident in their townships, prior to the meeting. The central idea Is to impress the trustees with the fact that the farm bureau is endorsing Mr. Do1 j . - , . , , . lan and hopes for his reflection, on siuuiiu mat lie lias ueen a willing and efficient man in that position. and a man entitled to much credit for work performed. Wheat Market Conditions The opinions of the large grain operators as to the future prices on wheat, crop conditions remaining unchanged, is best shown by the Chicago Board of Trade quotations on the September and December options. With a close on Monday of $1.141i for July, which is really a cash option, as the seller of July wheat can immediately deliver if he so desires, September closed at $1.12. And even December, with its carrying charges to figure on, closed at but $1.14. Many country elevator men are worried as to the possible delay in the movement of grain, because of strike conditions. We have been told of one elevator manager who has sold 10,000 bushels of wheat to be delivered at a certain July date, who had received but one car instead of the ten cars he had ordered, late last week, and who is worrying over the "penalty" for failure to deliver, just now. This elevator is situated in the Richmond district and it is not unlikely that others may shortly be in the same boat. If so, the buying of wheat will be materially checked, and that, too, regardless of price, as storage capacity is decidedly limited. The rail situation is naturally having its effect at all market centers and the price of grain is an-hour-to-hour affair, depending on developments.

Men who have studied the subject tell us that more than forty kinds of pests infest the various kinds of poultry and pigeon flocks. He further encouragingly Btates that all may be killed by an inexpensive treatment. The professor goes on to Btate of these pests "seven species are most commonly found on chickens; on ducks and geese, two or three each; on turkeys three, and several each on pigeons, guinea fowls and pea-i fowls. Poultry is subject to attackalso by mites and to some extent by' ticks and fleas, though the latter are of slight Importance. "Poultry lice stay on the fowl3 practically all the time, therefor tho only effective treatments are those which are applied directly to tho birds. Up to the present time sodium fluoride, a whit powder which can b purchased at drug stores, Is the cheapest and most effective remedy for all kinds of poultry lice. In. using It, small quantities of powder, held between the thumb and forefinger aro dusted among the feathers next to the skin on the head, neck, back, breast, under the wings and at tho base of the tail. One pound of sodium fluoride is sufficient to treat one hundred fowls. "Mites infest poultry only at night, and hide during the day in cracks and crevices around the roosts and nests. They can best be controlled by keeping the poultry houses and roostd clean and by Bpraying the roosts, nests, etc. thoroughly with crude oil. kerosene or some heavy coal tar preparation."

The plant turned out to be scouring rush, sometimes called field horsetail. According to A. A. Hansen, botanist of the agricultural extension department, the scouring rush is poisonous to horses, jcausing a disease known as Equisetoais. Sheep seem to be slightly susceptible, the plant causing loss of condition, while cattle seem to be able to eat the weed without ill effects. Horses, particularly young ones, develop an abnormal appetite for the plant and death will result unless the animals are placed on a diet free of the scouring rush. Irf Vermont, where a great deal of trouble has been experienced from this cause. It has been estimated that the plant causes an animal loss of several thousand dollars. The greatest damage seems to result from eating dried plants, particularly when fed in hay. Whether or not Equisetosis exists generally in Indiana is not known, but the disease should be guarded against in re gions where the pest is plentiful. The scouring rush Is a perennial, reproducing from creeping roots in a similar manner to Canada Thistla. There are two stages of growth, tho spring stage, consisting of upright, unbranched stems each bearing a sin gle cone at the summit that is full of I 0 resembles a miniature pine tree. Cultivation with gopher blades will destroy the weed. Briefs 1 Notice Eagles Funeral services for Henry Rohe will be held Wednesday evening, 7:15. William J. Schneider.
