Markets

GRAIN PRICES (Markets by Lamson Bros. & Co., 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO, Sept. 6. Wheat moved within a narrow range with selling orders appearing on rallies, -while support appeared to originate with cash interest, the nearby delivery showed a slightly better tone than the later months. While reports seemed to indicate that export demand is confined to Manitobas domestic clearences are in substantial volume. Fall plowing Is delayed somewhat by dry weather In the plain tsates. Corn was active and ranged higher on buying induced by the weekly weather and crop report, as well as by private advice to the effect that damage has been done and is still in progress particularly over the Ohio and Mississippi valleys, as well as in some of the western states. The nearby delivery of oats was the strongest in a firm market. The attitude of labor toward the striking railroad shopmen is not particularly bullish on the country, but it has a tendency to hold nearby deliveries firm.

PROFITEERS' ACTION BRINGS COAL RELIEF (By United Press) COLUMBUS, Ohio. Sept. 6. Ohio coal operators are responsible for the necessity of calling a special session of the legislature to enact emergency legislation to prevent profiteering in coal, according to the proclamation issued by Gov. Harry L. Davis, summoning the general assembly back to its halls next Monday. Determination of some of the operators to "exact from the consumers rate which can be justified, only by the argument that the people will pay it rather than go without fuel,", the proclamation asserts, makes necessary action by the state to prevent serious jeopardy of the public welfare.

S. Maryland entered the harbor of Rio Janiero yesterday carrying the American mission to the Brazilian centennial headed by Secretary Hughes. The steamship Pan-America which brought Mr. Hughes from New York overtook the Maryland and the Nevada just beforo arriving at the entrance to the harbor where the secretary and his party were transferred to the Maryland. Four Brazilian destroyers, taking up positions on either side of the tvo American battleships, escorted them into the majestic body of. water surrounded by towering mountains which make Rio famous as a beauty spot. The Maryland anchored in the midst of an international fleet and exchanged salutes, in which the harbor forts joined. The vessels represented Great Britain, Japan, Italy, Portugal, Argentina. Uruguay, Mexico and Brazil. Vessels Salute Although the United States has not recognized the Mexican government, the gunboat flying the Mexican flag saluted and the Nevada returned the salute by order cf the secretary of state, who told Admiral Jones that diplomatic technicalities should be waived since both vessels were in a friendly harbor. A delegation of Brazilian officials, accompanied by American Ambassador Morgan, visited the Maryland and welcomed the newcomers. After thia Secretary Hughes and his party boarded a launch which conveyed them to the arsenal. Here were drawn up committees of Americans who cheered the secretary. There also was a crowd of Brazilians and crack regiments of Brazilian marines which saluted which the band played the "Star-Spangled Banner." The Hughes party was then driven to the Guanabara palace, their official residence. TO LOAN AUSTRIA MONEY (By Associated Press) LONDON, Sept. 6.

PEACE PLAN (Continued from Page One.? from headquarters for a meeting of the unions policy committee here tomorrow. Other union officials declined to re veal the whereabouts of Mr. Jewell since he dropped out of sight la'-t Friday. Vague and uncertain rumors said he had been in the "east." Mr. Scott said he had heard nothing .if Mr. Jewell's return here today, adding that he was not expected for several days. Coupled w;th the denial of Mr. Willard that he had not even seen Jewell was a statement fom Mr. McGrat& asserting that he did not believe the strike leader had even been in. the vicinity of Baltimore. Mr. McGrath declared that rumors of a contemplated meeting of the policy committee Thursday was a part of a plat to deceive the shopmen. Meanwhile federal agents awaite-d the return of Mr. Jewell to formally Eerve him with the injunction writ. Judge To Be Absent At the same time Judge Wilkerson after dismissing contempt proceedings against three men arrested in Chicago under the injunction announced he would be absent from his court until next Monday, the day set for hearing on the government's application to make the restraining order permanent. Meantime Attorney General Daugherty explained at Washington that the government's injunction would not be used to abridge personal liberty or to interfere with the freedom of speech or the press. While house spokesmen asserted the purpose of the injunction was not to endanger constitutional rights but was to prevent interference with transportation. Strike conditions generally were reported quiet throughout the country. Ten men, all of whom were said by

The Farm and By William R. G. G. REDUCES RENT The need for reducing expenses in the general offices of the re-organized U. S. Grain Growers has resulted in the securing of more modest quarters for the organization at Chicago. The new offices are located in the Garland building at 58 East Washington street, just a fclock from the former headquarters in the Mailers building, and still in the most expensive office building section in Chicago. Good offices cost a lot of money in Chicago, as witness the saving of $14,475 per year by the new move. All other expenses of the Grain. Growers have been cut to the bone, in accordance with the budget put into action by the new directory. No announcement of any plans to actually begin tte marketing of grain in any market, has yet been sent out by J. M. Mehl, the new secretary, nor does the American farm bureau make any mention whatever as to such plans, in its News Letter of August 31. It is not likely that .the new sales company has been able to get ready for business, even in a modest way, but doubtless the able men back of the marketing enterprise are doing all they can to get safely started. The dairymen in ten states are planning to buy their feeds co-operatively. Theee include the New England, New York and other eastern states. "Besides getting the feeds directly from the manufacturer to the local elevator or farm bureau, there are two features of the plan that bid fair to tures of the plan that bid fair to ing." said M. D. Lincoln, secretary of the Ohio farm bureau. Standard Feed Formulas "The first of these is that in all feed business handled by the co-operatives the open formula will be the adoped policy. For years the feed interests in the country have been putting out mixed feeds but the formula.- have always been kept secret. Three standard formulae for the co-operatives have been worked out by agricultural college scientists in eleven states and adopted." Occasionally some one suggests that a big farmer's strike would clear up the whole situation, says the editor of the Prairie Farmer. "There is a much better way to do it than that. That is to organize to market our products in a business way. When we do that there will be no more glutted markets or ruinous prices. We will give the market each day what it wants at a fair price, and no more, just as any other merchant does. Don't say it can't be done. It has already been done with many commodities. It can be done with all of them much easier than a successful farmer's strike can be organized." Modern Farm Methods "Our civilization rests at the bottom on the wholesomeness, the attractiveness, and the completeness, as well as the prosperity of life In the country," police to be striking shopmen, were held at Memphis, Tenn., in connection with the recent killing of Charles H. Lanier, a non-union shop employe of the Frisco system. Two men said by United States marshals to be striking shopmen "were arrested at Key West, Fla., on charges growing out of the kidnapping and beating of a yard watchman. State militia authorities tightened their lines about the Parsons, Kas. ! strike zone as a precautionary measure. Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe officials reported that a bridge near Verdemont, Calif., at the mouth of Cajon pass north of San Bernardino, had been dynamited. The Nebraska federation of labor adopted resolutions asking for a general strike of organized labor in the United States in support of. the railway shopmen's strike. MEMPHIS, Tenn.. Sept 6. Ten men, all of whom, according to the police, have made confession?, all of whom the authorities said admit being former striking employes of the Frisco railway, today were under arrest m connection with the fatal shooting Saturday of Charles N. Lanier, nonunion Frisco shop employe. The killing of Lanier was by mistake, according to the alleged confessions which state it was the intention to. frighten Clarence Stevens, non-union Frisco shop foreman, who was riding in the car with Lanier, when ambushed. The alleged confessions, the police declare, bear on the killing of Lanier, a plot to waylay Stevens, the pulling of spikes from the Frisco tracks near Capleville, Tenn., on the night of Aug. 26, with the alleged intention of wrecking the fast Kansas City-Florida special, and the slaying of two negro employes of the Rock Island road at Hulbert, Ark. KEY WEST, Fla., Sept. 6. Pursa! Atchinson and Harry Roberts, striking railroad shopmen, were arrested by the united States marshal today on charges growing out of the recent kidnapping and beating of Alfred Brost yard watchman for the Florida East Coast railway here. The federal authorities came into the case through a restraining order granted the rail way against interference of its prop erty or its employes.

No one was injured.

the Farmer Sanborn

said Theodore Roosevelt. Following that quotation Purdue says: "Indiana still has isolated sections where life on the farms offers handicaps to comfortable, happy living, yet farm life as a whole is rapidly evolving from this condition, into one in which the farm family is enjoying all the benefits of the city dweller, besides the joy of living in the wholesome atmosphere of the woodlands and open spaces. "The farm no longer presents a haphazard way of making a living nor is it a place of drudgery; it is rather a place of great opportunities. Farmers have been slow to awaken to the fact that farming is a great business, but the awakening has come. "The little cabin, the dilapidated farmhouse, the tumble-down barn, idle fields and the "hay-seed" farmer are rapidly passing away, and in a few years will be unknown. The old house is being replaced by the neat, modern farm home, well heated, well lighted, with running water and all the conveniences of a city home; the "hay-seed" fanner is now a business man; modern machinery makes it possible for him to do his work better, more quickly, and cheaply, thus giving him better profits with the least waste of time, money and energy." Southern Rural Problems State experiment stations of the southeastern states North and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi are cooperating in investigations of regional importance to agriculture in that section. Through this cooperative work these stations are attempting to discover effective means of combating the ravages of the cotton boll weevil, controlling cotton anthracnose; pre venting soil erosion; eradicating the cattle tick; aiding the production of native fruits and vegetables of market value; and developing generally a more diversified and self-sustaining system of farming. Oldest Hereford Herd There seems to be little doubt as to the location and ownership of the oldest Hereford herd in the country. The herd owned by J. H. Underwood, Kent's Hill, Maine, was established in March, 1853, by the grandfather of the present owner, and it has been owned and managed by the Underwood family during the 69 years of its existance. By common consent this is the oldest herd of whitefaces in America. Many members of this herd were shipped into the west at the time that section was first stocked with Hereford cattle. It is related Henry Clay imported the first English Herefords into this country, for his Kentucky farm This was in 1817, which indicates tim th Hereford family are now in their second century as American cattle. The first Herefords to reach Maine arrived from England in 1846 and it was from this foundation of two calves, Kimrco and Kitty, that the Underwood herd was established seven years later. The Herefords shown at tbr Centennial exposition gave impetus to the general introduction of the white-faces in the west. Western breeders visiting the exposition started a wide demand for Hereford bulls for the rang? country. A few herds were .-;tarte-a in the corn belt as early as ISoS. and one of these is still in existance, an! Thomas Clark, the original founder, still owns and manages it. Mr. Clark claims the distinction "of beins the oldest living breeder in this country or England."
