Markets GRAIN PRICES - (Markets br Lamson Bros. Co., 212 Union National Bank: Eaildlng) 5y Associated Press) CHICAGO, I1L, Not. 3.-There was liberal profit taking In wheat on bulges today, which tended too offset the news which was otherwise of a bullish character. A good demand for wheat was reported in all markets and Galveston was bidding 19 cents over December F. O. B. boat for No. 2 hard and widest premium on the crop. A better demand for flour was reported from the northwest. The department of agricultures estimate that 50 percent of the wheat crop had left the farms by Sept. 30 was regarded as distinctly bullish. The setback today left. we believe wheat in a stronger posi tion than before. Corn and oats were affected by -wheat and the same character of selling was apparent. Sea board bids were a shade lower for corn, and one branch of the Illinois Central railroad Is setting out a larger number of cars than for two months past. In other districts car scarcity Is still serious. RANGE OF FUTURES (Markets by Lamson Bros. & Co, 212 Union National Bank Building) CHICAGO, Nov. 3.

Chicago High Girls To Demand Clean Bills Of Health From Lovers (By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Nov. 3. The man who marries a graduate of Chicago high schools will be require'd to produce a clean bill of health signed by a reputable physician, if plans of school authorities are adopted. Superintendent of Schools Peter A HorCfnsen will bring the matter before principals of the schools here Saturday. His plan would require a pledge from every girl that she would marry no man who was not physically fit for marriage. About 4,500 young women graduate from Chicago schools yearly. Hortensen's plan is in line with the campaign against social diseases waged by the school health department. It includes the teaching of eugenics to graduating high school classes. Despite the objection of members of the board of education a strong effort was launched to have personal hygiene included in the regular course at grade schools.

Two hundred cars of coal, about 8,000 tons, are lying idle on railroad docks at Ashtabula harbor. The coal, which was consigned to the northwest, has been rejected because of inferior quality. The fuel has been offered to local industries at reduced price. Some of it has been bought. ket still shows a tendency upwards while advices from the goods market indicate a healthy condition of affairs with rising prices."

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn

ALL GRAINS HIGHER The price paid for wheat at country points has been slowly advancing, in sympatny wua iua no i uliu. markets. But cash grain has not advanced with the options and this has had its effect at country points. Elevators which depend on their daily bid for a profit on shipments can pay but little attention to futures, its the cash on arrival which interests them, or the price quoted f. o. b. Flour mills in need of grain to grind can, and often do, pay a little more for wheat than the shipping market parity, but this is not always true, or at least millers do not always pay a premium because they are - manufacturers of flour. Those who are watching the speculative markets are aware that all grains are reaching higher levels. How long the advance will continue, or how high winter prices may range is, of course, an unsolved problem. Much depends on the ability of Europe to finance and supply its shortage of wheat and rye. Rye has been exported freely of late. The Farmers' National Grain asso ciation elevators at Fountain City, Boston, Kitchell, etc., were bidding $1.13 for wheat on Thursday. Mr. Price reports coal as moving more or less freely just now and says that his country trade will be cared for right along. Charles Carpenter, of the Richmond flour mills, marked his bid price on wheat up to $1.15 on Thursday morn ing. The favorable wather for get ting corn from the fields into the cribs has been keeping farmers so busy that those who are holding ciNGING MASTERS, MUSIC DIRECTORS, SAY JAZZ IS DYING CHICAGO, Nov. 3. The Jass era is nast. The nation is reverting to dig nitv in its dance and music. Long skirts and nublic opinion have ban ished the shimmy and the saxophone, Dancing masters and musical direc tors of Chicago today agreed the syn copation craze is dead. . "Dancing changes with women s styles," said Louis Guydon, dancing master. "When women wore short skirts and checked their corsets, they had greater freedom, which is now impossible with the tight, long, clinging gowns." Music publishers and orchestra leaders have conducted a bitter campaign against jazz bands. Most of the Chicago hotels and dance orchestras have banned jazz instruments. Incidentally the Casino club, where Chicago's few most wealthy and exclusive families find their entertainmentis the only club in the city which has not fallen in with the drive on the "barbarian music." "Patrons of the Casino club still insist on their jazz," said Edgar Benson, head music director. "The vulgar features of Jazz are being driven out of American music forever," said Dr. Peter C. Lutkin, dean of the Northwestern university music school. TAKES OVER AUTO AGENCY , Announcement was mad1: Friday that Steve Worley, local automobile agent, has taken over the agency for the Hupmobile in the Richmond terri. tory. Called by Death CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Nov. 3. Funeral services for Mrs. Sarah Bronson, 81 yearS old, who died at her home on Third street Wednesday night, were to be held Friday after noon at 2:30 o'clock at the home. The Rev. F. C. McCormick was to officiate. Burial was to be in Riverside ceme tery. - MRS. PHILLIPS (Continued from Page One.! Meadows had her at her mercy, Mrs. Phillips testified, declaring that Peggy came to the rescue from a nearby au tomobile and knocked Mrs. Meadows down with a hammer. Peggy prev-j will dwell on the fact that Clara declared she did not remember following the first blow of the hammer, which as photographs show was apparently wielded many times. Testimony Attacked. The defendanh's long lapKl of memory thereafter also was to be attacked. After this, and testimony by Phillips and alienists ,it will be up to the jury to decide brtween the veracity of Peggy and Clara. - Each claims the other made chief plans for the "bring, ing of Mrs. Meadows to account," purchased the hammer and struck the fatal blow. Fred Tremain, thd dead girl's father, who had previously threatened anyone who maligned his daughter, wept as Clara told hes story. Spectators and jury betrayed emotion as Clara repeatedly cried out: "I was heartsick; I can't explain it. Nobody knows who has not experienced it" The five alienists who are to take the stand today are expect to testify that it is possible for persons nervously and mentally afflicted, as Clara claims to be, to do things and not to remember them. ' , .

wheat are not inclined to drop their shucking in order to haul a few loads of grain to market, and this accounts for the lack of receipts at all elevators

at this time. Another reason for light receipts is the fact that many who! put wheat into store did so with the idea of holding until the crop is pretty well cleaned up. Paying $1.17 at Eldorado. When we asked A. V. McClure, of Eldorado, on Thursday afternoon, what wheat was worth oviet- his way, he said, "we are, paying $1.17 today." i nai was on a parity witn cnicagc December at that time, in fact, a little over. This was the top price bid in the Richmond section on Thursday, and the top figure' in some time. The McClure elevator has been pretty well supplied with coal since the resumption of mining, and they are expecting two cars of anthracite in on an. early date. The report from Modoc is that two cars of soft coal came in lately and that they are on the lookout for a car or two of anthracite for the owntra of baseburners. The anthracite has been ordered for some time and as it is now beginning to arrive in this territory ,they are in hopes Tf soon being supplied. The elevator at Hagerstown says that no new corn is moving as yet, but that a world of it has been shucked and cribbed in past two weeks. Asked as to coal the manager said that he had been able to get two or three kinds of soft coal but not a. single car of anthracite had yet come in. They paid $1.12 for wheat at the Hagerstown flour mill on Thursdayv When Omer Whelan added new corn to his buying list on Friday morning he quoted it at 55 cents delivered in Richmond, against 65 cents for old corn, the price he has been paying on the 1921 crop for some time. Frarik McKee, at Pershing, says that they have managed to get delivery of one car of No. 2 chestnut anthracite coal which was quickly disposed of at $14.75 at the car. They have some soft coal in the bins at Pershing, with more on the way. McKee was paying $1.12 for wheat on Thursday. Camden Buying New Corn The Farmers' elevator at Camden reports the movement of new corn as well begun and are paying 55 cents for it They recently received two cars of Kentucky and Wrest Virginia coal which sold at $10.50 and were lucky enough to get one car of hard coal which was delivered in town at $16.00. Two cars of anthracite coal are ex pected at Lynn almost any day now, the one recently received being clean ed up at $17.50 per ton. They have some Ohio coal which they are selling at $9.50 and of West Virginia which is bringing $10. The elevator at Lynn is taking in new corn at 70 cents per cwt. Prof. Christie's Address In hi3 address before the twentyfifth annual conference of extension workers at Purdue, on Wednesday night, Prof. G. I. Christie said that the extension department of the college must help the Indiana farmer more than ever before, if agriculture is to be developed as it should he. "The development of the new wheat, Michikoff, discovery of the fact that soybeans require a mineral mixture to give best results, discovery of the weeds that harbor mosaic disease of tomatoes, and dozens of similar things, are of inestimable value to Hoosler farmers, and place the Indiana station in the front rank," he said. "Agriculture is the largest wealth producing industry in Indiana. In 1921 the products of Indiana farms exceeded a $300,000,000 value in spite of th low prices. The value of farm lands and improvements not including personal property of farmers, represents more than half the total taxables of the state. The economic conditions today make it imperative that agriculture be made efficient and profitable. The prosperity of Indiana and of the entire nation depends onthe successful and profitable operation of farms, anl farmers must have the support of state and federal government in meeting their many problems." Commercial Apple Crops When we speak of commercial apple crops we refer only to the kinds that have been property grown and cared for. which are in standard packages, and so recognized in all markets.

this year to supply the state, thousands of bushels of poor stock are rotting on the ground, there being little demand for inferior grades. This being "Apple Week" a few statistics of 1922 production will be timely. The official forecast of the department of agriculture as of September 1, and given out on the 10th, esti

mated the output of Washington, Oregon and Idaho at 31,401,000 boxes, against almost 34,000,000 boxes in 1921. The commercial crop of ba reled apples was placed at 32,583,000 barrels, against a crop of but 21,204,000 barrels last year. The leading states in commercial production are Washington, New York, Michigan, California, Illinois, Oregon, Missouri, Pennsylvania and Idaho. Unquestionably Indiana can grow as tine fruit as New York or the northwest, but admittedly it doesn't, except in a comparatively small way. The Octo ber 1 estimate of Indiana apples was lower than that of September, due to weather conditions. The final estimate was for a, crop of 427,0dOfcushels.
