Markets

GRAIN PRICES (Markets by Lamson Bro3. & Co., 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO, 111., Sept. 21. Wheat was Irregular but mostly lower. A good recovery from inside prices made the close only fractionally under that of last night for deferred months while September closed higher. Export business was reported as quiet, but private advices indicated a large trade in Manitobas. Corn did not follow the bulge in wheat but was under some liquidation pressure throughout the day. Large cash interests were not supporting the market to the extent they have been doing on previous days. A fair trade in oats was com posed mostly of changing. The northwest was credited with buying September and selling December. RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by Lamson Bros. & Co., 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO, Sept. 21.

TOO tAX- TAT MR. 0K lt ILL ? WHtI WU2. TALKN' TO HN AN HQUK A;o OtS THE. Phone. - C 9 Service. Inethe Farmer Sanborn tate of the late James M. Webster. consisting of 93 acres and farm chattels, the land being located five miles north of Richmond, on the Arba pike, says that the realtv bronchi $92.50 an acre. He understands tha: the buyer, John Davis, of Richmond, bought the place simply as an invest ment and does not Intend to farm the place himself. The sale drew a large crowd and there was some spirited bidding in spots. In the live stock put up were six horses, 11 head of cattle and 48 Poland China hogs, some of them registered, including sows with Dies at side. The hoc clearance was made at good figures: in fact fair nrice.s were realized all along the line. Mr Hall states that the. chattels sold for a total of $4,500. This reminds us that the sale of the chattels was held on the T. S. Martin farm, immediately adjoining the Wtbster property which went under the hammer. One feature of this sale was the 65 acres of standing corn. In view of the fact that this corn brought up to $25 an acre a firstciass crop is indicated. Harry Gilbert, of the Second Na tional bank, made the settlements, and me ladies of the church at Chester served a satisfying and profitable luncn to all comers. Hampshire Hog Sale Conway and Dawson, breeders ,of Hampshire hogs and located 11 mile-; southwest of Connersville, put on a sale on Tuesday which drew a number of Wayne Hampshire fanciers. The top gilt in the offering was bought at $51 by Pierce and Hanning, of Cam bridge City. Warner Fleisch. Ralph and Perry Druley, L. D. Orr and Alva Lllis also were among the buyers who Drougnt a few hogs back home to Wayne. The highest price realized was $60 which Roy Nelson, of New Salem, paid for a choice spring boar. There were 100 head in the offering 6 gilts and 24 boars. Frank Druley picked out 12 head, or about eight per cent of the lot. We are told that thcgilts averaged $32 and the boars $33 per head. Forest Brook farm, two miles west of the Hill greenhouses in Tenter township, will be the scene of a noul try culling demonstration by electric ngnt at 7 o clock on Friday evening. A large arc light will enable every visitor to see the birds while County Agent Dolan explains the why and wherefore of his selections. We are told that it is a mixed flock of Leghorns that i to be culled. Edward Toschloe is in charge of the farm where the culling is to be put on. It is claimed that the only exnlanation of the destruction of the large barn on the William Leonard farm, east of Liberty on the Camden road, was that the fire started from spontaneous combustion. The loss is heavy and there was no insurance. In addition to hay and corn a number of implements were burned, also a corn shredder and a wheat separator. Awards at Winchester.

All creameries, milk plants, condenseries. etc., buying and paying for milk and cream on the butterfat basis are li censed. Each year when renewing their licenses they report to the creamery license division of the dairy de partment of Purdue concerning the amount of butter, milk or other dairy products sold during the past calendar year. Figures for 1921 show a marked in crease in the production of all products with the exception of ice cream and cheese. The amount of creamery butter produced in Indiana during the past seven years has steadily increased to 75 per cent since 1914. During 1921, 46,833,921 pounds of creamery butter were manufactured which is an increase of 4,255,741 pounds or 9.9 per cent over the amount manufactured in 1920. In 1921 licensed milk plants showed an increase in the amount of milk handled of 7,757.144 pounds. Condensed milk showed an increase of 10,834,304 pounds for 1921. In addition to this, approximately 27,532.340 pounds of butterfat were shipped to creameries and milk plants outside the state. The butterfat shipped into the state, to some extent, off-sets the amount shipped out, but only partly so, as only a few large creameries are located near the state's border. All creameries, condenseries, cheese factories and a part of the total num ber of milk plants and ice cream factor ies are licensed. By using statistics from these plants and estimating the amount of dairy products manufactured and sold in plants not licensed a very close estimate of the state's total production has been obtained. This is shown as follows: Pounds Creamery Butter ...46,833,921 Pounds Dairy Butter 12,000,000 Gallons Milk (consumed) ...87.965,116 Gallons Ice Cream 5,945,163 Pounds Condensed Milk 33,998,403 Pounds Cheese 190,074 The total amount of milk produced in the state as figured from the amount of dairy products sold in 1921 and including milk fed on farms, milk lost on farms and factories, and milk shipped out of the state, was 3,035,325,150 pounds or 352,944,784 gallons. The. value of this milk to the farmer was; $51,641,699. IHTUCDO fill!! flu I ULIIO HiiU ' DAUGHTERS Read This Letter from Mrs. W. S.

Mrs. Wm. S. Hughes, Greenville, Delaware. Mothers and oftentimes grandmothers have taken and have learned the value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. So they recommend the medicine to others. The best test of any medicine is what it has done for others. For nearly fifty years we have published letters from mothers, daughters, and women, young and old, recommending the Vegetable Compound. They know what it did for them and are glad to tell others. In your own neighborhood are women who know of its great value.
