GRAIN PRICES ! "trets R- P- Man & Corarj&ny, Z12 Union National ban 2s'Jdln) CHICAGO, Aug. 19. Wheat The wheat market was a very weak affair today and values sank apparently of their own weight. The close was at flight reaction from the day, brought about by evening up and short covering, but the tone was weak. A11 deliveries of wheat sold at a new low of the season. News was all bearish. There was continued liquidation and lower prices in Liverpool. LeCount summary of Canadian northwest conditions was bearish. German marks continued to drop. Weather everywhere was favorable, and. although the strike situation was not favorable. nobody appeared to be worrying about it. Cash market two to three lower, and this caused considerable pressure on the September. Continue to favor sales on rallies. Corn Corn was stronger than wheat. It weakened early on cooler weather in the eastern end of the belt and there was free selling of all deliveries by houses which was believed to be for the account of one of the larger local longs. Later the demand Improved on expectations of warmer weather over the belt. Cash market one to two lower. Oats It wa3 a very narrow market in oats, the close being slightly above the low of the day in sympathy with corn. Cash market steady to threequarters lower. RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by E. F.

Ask the County Agent Roscoe Fields, of Randolph county, has sent out a letter to his constituent farmers, telling them to "Ask the County Agent" He tells them that if they want a farmers Institute or a conference; want to keep a farm record book; or to have your boy or girl to join a pig or calf club; want speakers for a meeting; want bulletins on farm and home subjects; in fact if you want any advice, help or information avail able at the county agent's office, just ask him for it. Mr. Field's list of pos sible wants is a long one, ranging from how to cull poultry to your need from agricultural papers and booko. Our own county agent, who is at the moment away on a vacation, is equally accessible, when at home, and you will find him as helpful as he can be, when you are in need of the information he can furnish and the services he can render.

S. department of agriculture by our agent in London) shows that the wheat crop in England and Wales is estimated to be 63,040.1000 bushels, grown on 1,969,000 acres. This is almost 7,000,000 ousneis under the final crop estimates in 1921. The British barley crop is estimated ! at 40,720,000, against 42,720,000 last year. The outlook is for a crop o" 74,000.000 bushels of oats against 80,' 000,000 a year ago.

Vitamtnet in Meats The Bureau of Animal Industry baa found that vitamines exist in the muscle fibre of beef, veal, mutton, lamb and pork. Before this time it has been thought that vitamines existed , most abundantly in internal organs such as the heart, liver and kidneys. This new information will be capitalized by the National Live Stock and Meat Board in its campaign to educate the public to eat more meaL The experiments of the Animal Industry Bureau proved that meat, even if it did not contain many vitamins Is one of the most Important foods. Various cuts of different kinds of meat were , tried, and in every Instance pork was found to be relatively rich in vitamins. Beef and veal were relatively lower, while the amounts contained in lamb varied a great deal. Poland-Chinas to Brazil Forty head of pure-bred Poland-China hogs, owned by Illinois breeders, I are now enroute to Brazil, and will breeders' association and E. C. Caverly, of Toulon, and F. L.

At the close of the show 1116 bos3 e put up at a public .A ja a"ta cerns are putting up a skimmed milk of the same character, to the injury of both consumer and, dairyman, according to investigators. It seems strange that milk concerns having an international trade in real milk, at their own prices, should try. to sell the brands in question. The answer is: a bigger profit. Seed and Fertilizer In a letter from the soil improvement committee of the National Fertilizer association, we find the following with reference to the sowing of wheat, the Hessian fly and the use of fertilizer: "While the Hessian fly is by no ing of winter wheat he is of so much importance that nowadays the entire winter wheat program is mapped out with him especially in mind. There are five points which require special attention, i. e.: Early plowing, good seed, a well-prepared seedbed, delayed seeding and liberal fertilization.
