GRAIN PRICES (Markets by Lamson Bros. & Co, 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO. Oct. 18. Grains were very active but erratic and finished at sharp recessions from the early high point, which follow heavy buying induced by strong Liverpool cables. Heavy profit taking appeared on the bulges, a condition that has been expected to develope for several days. A moderate amount of export business was done in all grains, but offers -were limited on account of the acnte shipping sitiuation. Conditions have changed in no wa7. There action was due and will probably extend further. Buying power will again appear when investors feel that the situation, has been corrected.

Naturally, then, a number of out most progressive farmers have been Invited to the dinner. The dinner Is designed $71 AVERAGE PRICE WITH $140 TOP AT , CAMBRIDGE AUCTION CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Oct 18. An average of $71 with a top price" of $140 was realized at the Holstein sale conducted by Paul and Rupp on Tues day. Oscar Hardie, of Connersviiie, was by far the heaviest buyer, bidding oersistently on all the best stock and taking over a dozen or tne cows wiin smaller stock and a young herd bull of good breeding, for which he paid $65. The other young bull, a yearling, went to Allen Taylor for $51. The ton price was paid by Mr. Hardie on a cow which Purdue experts and most of the crowd already had nicked as an outstanding individual Several others brougnt over iuo apiece. John Batchelor of Kicnmona was another rival 01 o. s. Haraie, paying as high as $104, and $1.10 for two cows- and getting several others at cheaper prices. Bidding Speeds Up Prices Btarted at low figures on the first one or two cows brought into the ring, bidding opening at $40. After these, however, bids started at $50 and $60 or above and lively competition was shown. The reputation built for the herd as high producers during the past few years In which the uiaypooi hotel of Indianapolis haa- secured Its entire cream supply from this farm, was In the minds of bidders -who were all buying utility cows on. ft production basis. Besides the -purchasers mentioned. Irvin Doddridge, Milton; W. Q, Sourbeer, Arthur Lamott, Joshua Lamott, Joe Moore, Hagerstown; (J. Mason, Fred Moore, Knightstown, and A. G. Cunningham. Cambridge City, were buyers cf cattle. $13.50 For Feeders. An average price of $13.50 was paid for well grown feeders in thrifty condition. Arthur Lamott and Lee Hartman took the bulk of the offering, which was all of Big Type Polands The total of the sale was $3,780 Everett Button, Albert Hindman, and Roland McGrady were the auctioneers, R. A. Hicks and Park Gipe, clerks Dinner was served by the Ladles Aid of the Cambridge City Methodist church. Mr. Paul announced the sale as clearing out of all his grade stock, as he intends to work into pure bred registered stock. Howard George, of Lebanon, whose brother beads the farm bureau dairy marketing department, has been engaged as herdsman and wiU give his full time to the dairy and the herd. Andrew Kerber will be general manager of the farm. To Visit Cox Farm. Mr. Paul will visit the Governor Cox farm near Middletown, Ohio, soon to inspect that herd with a view of purchase of some or all of the cows. A number of purebred cows were retained, not being put in the sale, and a consistent breeding policy will be followed, supported by tests and records which will discover the high producers. During the sale, Mr. Paul also offered breeding . privileges from his bulls to aid his neighbors in building up their own herds. BIG TYPE POLAND SALCS Two sales of Big Type Poland hogs were held near Richmond, on Tuesday. The Poland breeders of Union county put up an offering of sixty head atthe farm of Homer Lafuze, three miles northeast of Liberty, on the Boston pike. Six breeders contributed hogs to the sale and a good sized crowd was present in quest of good hogs. No exceptional prices were paid, nor were any good hogs - given away, it being a pretty even sale from start to finish. Among the hogs sold were 11 head which were owned by members of the pig club. An unusual feature of the club offering were eight gilts, all out of one litter. These were owned by one of Everett Little's boys and were all driven into the ring at the same time, bidder to have privilege of choice. The entire bunch went to one man at $30 each. The sale average was about $32. The Caleb Starbuck Poland sale, held southwest of Winchester, drew breeders from quite a wide area. There was a bunch of good ones in the sale and the average was a trifle over $36 per head. Samuel Claycomb, of Redkey, selected what he considerel the best boar in the lot and bid him up to $110. Sows with pigs at side sold at $60 and better.

to bring the cityman and the farmer into closer contact, to get them mutu ally acquainted and to consider co operation of town and country in the upbuilding of the entire county. It is a laudable idea.

Grain Trade and Prices. Farmers are encouraged by the fact that the men who sold wheat short when all grains were at the lowest in late August and early September have found that there was really a bottom to the market. All markets were heavily oversold at that time, and de spite the considerable advance indica tions point to a great shortage still outstanding, and to higher prices dur ing the winter. Shortly after harvest the world was deluged with reports of a large surplus of American and Ca nadian wheat, so both foreigners and the home trade in general took the short side of the market, in an effort to find bottom. Foreign markets, which were the most depressed two months ago, have been leading the up ward movement, while foreign wheat stocks have decreased, heavily. A reduction of 81,500,000 In the world's wheat crop, as compared with early estimates, has had a strengthening in fluence, the estimates not including Russia and Mexico. From the low of the week ending October 7 .corn moved up 6 cents for May and nearly 8 cents on the De cember delivery. This was an advance of 14 cents from the low on December, and 12 cents on May. De cember oats have advanced 11 cents from the low on December and 12 cents on the May option, both options now being above 40 cents. Cash wheat in Liverpool Is up 25 cents and corn 20 cents from, the low of the season. Courses in Marketing.

Swine Feeding Rations After the average farmer has read a treatise on feeding he looks over his supply of feeds and uses them accord ing to circumstances and his own ideas of the best thing to do, all of which is according to Hoyle. Nevertheless much may be learned from the reports of feeding experiments at the various stations and from the experience of men who are versed in scientific feed ing and who know why they use this formula or prefer some other. One expert who devotes his time to the matter has just issued a new bul letin on Swine Feeding for the Ohio extension service. The feeder is given the choice of two or more mixtures in a series of rations for weanling pigs and up to heavy hogs. The writer says: Suckling pigs. 5 to 40 pounds: 80 pounds corn, 20 pounds tankage; or a pounds corn, 10 pounds middlings 15 pounds tankage; or 30 pounds corn, 30 pounda ground barley, 25 pounds screened oats, lo pounds tankage Weanling pigs, SO to 100 pounds; 80a pounds corn, 15-20 pounds tankage or 75-80 pounds corn, 10 pounds mid dhngs, 10-15 pounds tankage; or 50 pounds corn, 35 pounds ground barley, la pounds tankage. Shoats, 100 to 175 pounds: 85-90 pounds corn, 10-15 pounds tankage or 7-8 pounds corn, 10-15 pounds mid dlings, 10 pounds, tankage; or 50 pounds corn. 40 pounds ground barley, 10 pounds tankage . Hogs, 15 to 250 Dounds: 92-96 pounds corn,v jk8 pounds tankage; or 60 pounds corn. 35 pounds ground barley, five pounds tankage. These rations may be hand-fed or self-fed. "Intelligent hand feeding," the bulletin remarks," will get as good results as will use of the self-feeder.

Ridding Apples Blotch w The latest exDerlmpnfo iiimMn i

rfhat the immense losses to apple growem irom Diotcn are really avoidable.', This costly disease has grown worse! from year to year in hundreds of midwest orchards, and in Ohio, blotch is now ine largest limiting factor in apple production. If, as seems true,, growers need not suffer these losses,, how are they to be avoided is of great interest to orchardists everywhere. . . ueacn, specialist in fruit growing at the Ohio University, submits a report of a recent tour of demonstration taken by 35 farmers In Ham ilton county. The first orchard visited had gotten two soakings of Bor deaux mixture, two and four weeks re spectively, after petal fan. This was a block of Duchess of Oldenburg ap ples, once badly hit by the blotch, but now completely rejuvenated. In this same orchard check trees which had received only the usual lime sul phur spray yielded only about four bushels per tree, 80 per cent of the fruit showing blotch. In another orchard the Dartv Insnected a collection of Smith cider trees. which had never grown any marketable apples in their 20 years, because of blotch. Given their double shot of Bordeaux, after petal fall this year. ineir branches were bent under a crou of clean, .marketable fruit It washown on the tour that all varities of apples susceptible to blotch were benefitted by the Bordeaux treatment It is reported from Chagrin Falls that one Northern Spy tree which i3

48 years old. bore 42 bushels of apples last year, which Bold to a roadaide trade at $2 per bushel. That tree has been well cared for and is likely to live and bear fruit for many more ,
