Markets GRAIN PRICES "(Markets by E. F. LIani & Company, 212 Union National Bans Building) CHICAGO, July 19 Wheat Lac k of imporant buying was evident almost from the start'today and prices broke easily on resumption of selling by large commercial houses, supposed to be acting for eastern interests. The market was unsettled and specially dull late to the session and -while selling was curtailed the market showed little resistance. The rumor was afloat here from New York that the rail strike bad been settled, but there was nothing in it. The situation as it stands today is unchanged except for the posibility that a setlement may be made at any time. This served to discourage buying. There was no chance in the character of the crop news, and conditions in the northwest were reported as ideal. Corn Corn held strong all day with the cash market firm in face ot lower market for wheat. There was some buying of Sept. early by a broker acting for a leading local elevator Interest The market eased off once or twice but came back with ease. Shippers are reported to be sold far ahead and reluctant to acept new business under . present conditions. With ideal weather and crop conditions, we favor sales on hard spot Oats Oats were not as strong as corn, but held fairly well all day, the close showing about 4 off. Cash market unchanged to lower. Trade was light with the market in a waiting attitude. Weather and crop conditions generally favorable. RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by E. F.

Program Is Announced For Danreith Congress DTJNREITH, Ind.. July 19. The Eastern Indiana Christian Restoration Congress will be held at Dunreith Aug. 9, an all-day affair, with morning, afternoon and evening sessions, as announced by R. H. Lord of Dunreith, chairman of the entertainment committee. C. B. Titus of Newcastle, A. L Needham of Dublin, J. H. Wilson of Newcastle and L. A. Tripp and Ross Davis, both of Greenfield, will be the speak ers. A. W. Jackman of Attica and A E. Wrentmore, B. W. Bass and B. L. Allen, all of Indianapolis .also will de liver addresses MUST SERVE SENTENCE Elmer Drlscoll Wednesday was or dered by Judge William A. Bond to serve out his sentence of 60 days at the penal farm under the lazy hus band act. Driscoll was convicted on June 12, 1922, and was given a suspended sen tence on condition that he would go back and live with his wife. strike presents maximum activity. As a rule, these are isolated points where the whole town is what is called a "railroad town," and where the local officials and incal mihlic rvnininn altngether are svmDathetic to the striker. For this reason, it is difficult to mend this condition. It is spots such as these that will call for the most definite action on the part of the governors of the states. A local public official who is dependent for his office on the votes of an almost completely striking community cannot be expected commonly to take a disinterested position and to stand for order solely. In the considerable number of such cases that exist, it is obviously the business of the governor to remove the officials, to substitute others less deferential to one party to the controversy and to take such other steps as are necessary. It is anticipated that the great bulk of the governors in the states affected by both the strikes will do their duty. But there are a small number of cases where, up to date, the energy and the state of mind of the governors, have seemed to fail in adequacy to the situation. It will be the policy of the federal government to use federal troops in cases where either the local state troops are insufficient or where the local authorities are derelict in the full performance of their duty. It is easy to guess that while President Harding will stand ready with the full power of the federal government, he will actually put it into use only after it is clear that there is either insufficiency or lack of courageous vigor on the part of local authorities. Some very deep principles are in volved m this situation. There is just now before congress a bill calling upon the federal government to take account of lynching and all forms of mob violence, and to punish it in the federal courts. Wrhile the bill is aimed at lynching, it would necessarily include such riots as took place at Herrin, 111. About this bill there is grave apprehension on the part of many persons who think that the extension of federal power over the 6tates has already gone too far. Persons who feel serious about this sort of thing should make it their business in the present crisis to see to it that the states shall function to their full capacity and shall only call on the federal government in an overwhelming emergency. There is general regret fn Washington over the failure of the plan of arbitration. At the end Mr. Harding showed the strain, and Mr. Hoover more than ever fulfilled the description of him by a journalist at the Paris conference who spoke of him as "a tired Titan." Hoover foresaw this sit uation fully a year ago, looked forward to it, prepared for it, and had an extraordinary command of the elements of it. Further than this, he had a plan as carefully worked out as it is possible for wisdom to make for a stabilization of this industry which would have made future crises unlikely. That either or both parties to the controversy should have made this plan abortive is more regrettable than either of the parties now realizes. (Copyright 1922 by The New York Evening Post, Inc.) UNIONS (Continued from Page One.) Denison, Tex., in a message to Governor Neff asked that a company of rangers be sent to Denison. Three alleged strike sympathizers were arrested at Taylor, Tex., on contempt charges. At Muskogee, Okla., all available police reserves were called out to quell two disturbances. At Superior, Wis., 50 masked men made captive two foremen of the Great Northern railroad shops. The masked men continued on their rampage and a plot to raid the roundhouse at Allouez was feared. After a meeting at Waco, Tex., representatives of 16 unions sent messages to President Harding, Governor Neff and heads of their national unions, asking that conditions prevailing prior to the strike be restored. Four passenger trains of the Kansas City Southern railroad were annulled. Two of the trains were operated between Shreveport and Lake Charles, La., and two between Shreveport and Texarkana, Ark. Officials at Dallas, Tex., said that an acute shortage of fuel oil and coal was likely to develop in Texas, with in the next week or ten days, due to the scarcity of tank and coal cars as a result of the traffic tie-up. Striking shopmen picketing railroad t yards at Richmond, Va., were reported
HE 1922 lNT L FEATur. The Farm and By William R. Having had all the rain the law provides, or nature calls for at this season, let us hope that we shall now have enough continuously dry weather to enable the threshers to complete their work. We called up Mr. Farmer on Tuesday. Mrs. Farmer answered the phone. "Is Mr. Farmer in the house". we asked? "Not now, in fact he has
Et)-l E.HPECT TO DROP rs anv MtNLYTE-
ij u "mA
gone up town." said she. "You seejers are arranging for the transporta-
we can't do any threshing today, be cause of the heavy rain last night, j And just think of it! We had a big threshing crew here on Monday. It! was a very hot and busy day, and do you know when they quit last night, we still had five loads to go, through the machine. Well, anyway, the machine is still here and they will thresh out these five loads before moving on to the next job. Still, I am sorry they didn't get through while about it-" The farm wives who feed the hungry threshers crews often do more and harder work than their husbands do." It is one of the tasks that many of them dread, particularly on sizzling hot days, which are made still more unbearable by the kitchen ranges. The neighbor women understand all about this, and as there are threshing "rings" so do the women have "rings" to provide the dinners. In such instances the ladies are inclined to make it a picnic occasion and to do a little visiting after the tons of dishes and glasses are washed. Later on Tom and Bill come in from work and Mary and Martha bids the hostess good bye and flivver home with their husbands; the women to serve the evening meal and the men to do up the chores. Other men who came with teams and wagons start with their tired horses for the home farm close by Intent on a good supper and a dreamless night of well-earned rest. Surely these harvest days of effort and fruition hold many compensa tions. Will Thresh Later On A. V. McClure, elevatorman at El dorado, says that despite delay because of rains fully half the threshing to be done from the fields has already been cleaned up He says that possi bly half the farmers in his district are in the habit of doing "barn-threshing" at any time which best suits them later on. which cuts down the work and output of wheat. Immediately following the harvest The heavy rain on Monday night effectually shut down the threshers for two or three days, this being true over a wide scope of country. Peach Growers Alarmed Reports from Petersburg, Indiana, tell of the largest crop of Elberta peaches ever grown in Pike county. This is cheerful news indeed, but suppose the railroad strike prevents shipment; what then? This is the question fruit growers are anxiously asking. The Lemmons orchard, just north of Petersburg, is but one of many It is planning to ship 3,500 bushels, and these will begin to ripen next week. Because of the strike It is reported that no buyers have made prices on the crop and the situation Is becoming critical, as the crop is so perisbible and must be marketed within a few days of the first ripening. Pike county peach trees are all heavily laden with fruit and the prosperity of many small growers depends on getting their fruit to market, when ready, and without delay. Many small peach orchards have been planted in the country in recent years, so that the total crop in a banner peach year Is surprisingly large. If train service is cut off, the growers will endeavor to market as much fruit as possible in cities to be reached by motor trucks: which is the best they hope to do. It is hoped, however, that this will not be necessary. Melon Shippers Worried "The cantaloupe and watermelon growers of the Seymour district are greatly concerned," says the Indianapolis News, "over reports that the Baltimore and Ohio railroad has placed an embargo on melon shipments in some parts of the state. It will be a week or ten days before many cantaloupes are shipped from this county, but unless they can be moved employed in the shops for purposes of publication in labor journals.

the Farmer Sanborn promptly the crop will be a loss. Pros pects for a big yield of fine quality j were never brighter, growers say, and; they had expected that the season would be profitable. Inability to ship by express, however, will mean curtailment of orders. "In anticipation that the railroad company will not be able to handle the entire crop promptly, some grow tion of melons by motor trucks. It i said that a fleet of trucks will be in operation between this city and Indianapolis when the melons begin to ripen. The Interstate Public Service Company had also arranged a special melon train, out of this city daily, and this will take care of a part of the crop. In the past deliveries to far distant points had been left entirely to express companies." State Corn Growers Contest A total of 950 corn growers, representing 58 Indiana counties, are enrolled in the five-acre contests this year, according to advices from R. S. Thomas, of Purdue. This large enrollment is due to the co-operative efforts of the five-acre committee of the Indiana corn growers association and the various farm bureau clubs. The two requirements for entrance to the contest are, that each person becomes a member of the corn growers' association prior to June 15, and that each keep a complete labor record of the entire field in which the FiveAcre plot is located. Each five-acre contestant should be supplied with a record sheet for this purpose. Although some contestants have been discouraged by chinch bug injury, sectional drought, etc., the corn plots over the State are looking exceptionally good and prospects are bright for increased yields this fall. The slogan of the work is "Higher Yields and More Economic Production." Three Corn-Grower Medals The Indiana Corn Growers' association again will give three medals to contestants producing meritorious yields. Seventy-five to eighty-five bushels per acre, on an area of five acres, will win a bronze medal; eighty-five to 100 bushels per acre, a silver medal, and 100 bushels or over per acre, a gold medal and membership in the 100 bushel corn club. These medals are suspended to a black ribbon watch fob bearing the seal of the association on the front side, with the engraved name and yield on the reverse side. One hundred and twenty-eight corn growers now hold membership in the 100 Bushel Corn Club. Requirements for membership to this club are that each person should have officially produced iuu bushels or corn per acre on 5 acres in the 5 acre corn contest. As a result of the work of the Han cock county corn growers association 5 farmers are affiliated with the state organization, 39 of whom are enrolled in the five-acre corn growing contest. Local prizes are being offered in addition to state medals. Black Scab in Missouri Black scab from northern potato districts showed so badly on the early potatoes In Missouri that farmers were warned early that all late crop seed should be treated to mitigate this disease. Black scab is said to be new to Missouri potato growers. In the past it has been thought that the main object of disinfection was the control of the common scab, which has given but little trouble In that state. The state college of agriculture now warns farmers that treat ment should now be given to practically all the seed planted. The report is that this new disease will cut the yields in many fields this year, but that it can be very generally eliminated next year by proper treatment of the seed, on lines laid down by the extension department. Plow Barn and Hog Lots The department of agriculture advises the plowing up and planting of barn and hog lots, at least once a year, and for these reasons. In the first place, hogs need good pasture as much of the time as Is possible. and they also need protection from internal parasites, such as the round worm, the eggs of which remain in the soil. Plowing helps to get rid of the pests and the crop of forage adds to the profit of this operation. Pasture crops aid as a laxative and gives the hogs exercise. It is stated that "rye is probablv the best crop to use for fall, winter, and spring pasture for hogs. Through out the corn belt it may be sown from August 20 to about October 1, depending on the latitude. In warm er climates the crop may be put in at various times up to as late as December. By putting in successive plantings from 2 to 4 weeks apart it is possible to have fresh pasture all the time. Seeding for pasture should j be much heavier than for a grain crop j from 3 t0 4 bushels per acre on a good Rnn PastnHn can nmhiv wi 6 weeks after seeding, and may continue, if the rye is not covered with snow, until the following April." A Pig Club Contrast At an exhibit held recently at the close of a pig club conducted by the boys' and girls' club agent in Riverside County, Calif., both good and bad types of pigs grown by club mem bers were shown, with initial and final weights, feeds, costs and grains of both types. Two pigs out of the same litter, each fed 150 days, were entered; one gained 70 pounds at a cost of 18 cents a pound, the other gained 206 pounds at a cost of 3 cents a pound.
