THE MARKET REPORTS

CHICAGO, Sept Embarrassing stocks
caused weakness in wheat today, not
withstanding large export clearances.
Corn advanced on expected lighter re-
ceipts locally. Compared with Saturday
night wheat is sc down and corn sc
up. Provisions show gains of &c to 35c,
near by options being the firmest. Wheat,
at the opening, was rather firm, and
prices &c higher than Saturdays clos
ing, became weaker and declined %GTc
and closed 1850 lower than Saturday.
The early strength was Influenced by
the reported decrease of 100000 bushels
in quantity of wheat and flour on ocean
passage and smaller shipments from In
dia which were reported at $4,000 BUSH
els less than the preceding week. There
were quite a few buyers orders, some
parties evidently thinking the market
favorable for a reaction. But the offer
ings were liberal cables were lower, the
conditions favorable for blowing and
seeding. The visibly supply statement
about answered expectations.
Corn opened at about the final figures
of Saturday and after selling off frac-
ton sold up 4 and remained quiet for a
while but again firmed UP, advancing an
other 1ac, reacting &c later. changed
some, and closed at A@2sc. gain. Severe
frosts are reported in many parts of the
corn belt but cut very little figure as it
is what is now needed for curing. There
was a moderate trade in oats and a
steadier feeling, especially for the near
futures, which advanced 2sqSc, while
May only advanced sc and closed at the
outside. The provision market was firm
on higher priced hogs, but there was no
speculative demand from any outside
point. Stocks are light, the demand for
cash product is reported good, but the
speculative crowd apparently can see
nothing but danger to themselves in
meddling with the market on either side
under present conditions. Vessel room
was in good demand and rates A@2sc
higher than Buffalo at &c for wheat and
nc for corn and to Kingston at &c.
Estimated receiputs for tomorrow:
Wheat, go cars, corn, 775 cars; oats, $50
cars; hogs, 10000
The leading futures ranged as follows:

Low Temperature Weeds.

some Fact. About Alfalfa.

There has been much inquiry about
alfalfa B. F. Johnson. a noted Illinois
farmer, says: My satisfactory expert
ments three years in succession, suggest
that I report some essential details
of management for a crop pretty sure
soon to be a leading one with those ad-
vanced farmers who recognize the ne
cessity for the introduction of some
forage crop that viii successfully resist
summer drought. And first, as for the
proper preparation Of the land. The es-
sential is that it has a rich SOIL a
permeable and well-drained subsoil, and
that soil and subsoil be completely free
from the roots OF perennial weeds and
weed seeds OF every kind. Thus the
ideal soil for an alfalfa crop would be a
well-set bluegrass pasture, or new
prairie from which the sWard has been
taken up and removed; the next best
would be that piece of land which had
been put through so complete a soil
stirring and summer-fallow as to make
1t thoroughly clean and filthy. So pre-
pared. the seed should be sown a week
or ten days before complaining time,
at the rate Of twenty pounds per acre If
broad-casted and fifteen pounds if drilled.
Under these circumstances, nothing need
be done with the crop until the first
blossoms appear and the leaves begin
TO turn yellow. Then comes the essential
OF essential things to be done to insure
success with alfalfa, and that Is TO cut

HE KILLED HIS FRIEND.
! Hud Harris UnwfttInGIy Causes tn e
Death of Harvey Nelson.

GOSHEN, Sept. -Special.-Shipshe-
wana was thrown into an excited condi-
ton this forenoon at what first reports
had was a murder, but which investiga-
ton proved to be a very deplorable acct
dent which threw the unwilling destroy
er into condition bordering on insanity.
Yesterday Harvey Nelson and Hud
Harris, two young men of Shipshewana,
were out hunting. This morning they
met at about o'clock to arrange and
put away their guns. Hud Harris was
cleaning his gun and talking about the
hunting trip, and while there were shells
in the barrel, he thought they We're
empty and raised the hammer and let it
go. A loud report followed and Harvey
Nelson dropped to the floor as If dead.
Help was Immediately summoned, but to
no use, as Nelson died in twenty min
utes.
Investigation showed that the contents
of the shell struck Nelson just above the
right hip, passing through the liver and
upward through the stomach.

To Cure a kicking Horse.

DR.. James Law says that there Is no
infalhble cure applicable TO all kickers
alike, as much depends on the temper
of the animal, its past habits and ex-
perience, and not little the man
who undertakes the cure. Some nervous
mares given to switching, holding the
rein under the tail and kicking. may
be cured by simply driving with an
overdraw check. kept rather short, and
by rolling the crupper with a strip of
flannel until it is three inches thick and
will not allow the tail to settle down
closely enough to hold the rein tightly,
or fixing the tail 10 the breeding straps
at each side so as to prevent II from
getting over the rein may suffice. II
1t is from nervous sensitiveness when
touched on the quarters or hind limbs
by harness, shafts, whip or hand, Mag
ner's method of turning in a narrow
circle to render the horse dizzy and sub
missive may be tried. A strong hitching
one ring Of the bit back on one side of
the body, through opening made in
the hair above knot tied on the end
of the tail. and back through the other
ring of the bride. This may be drawn
so tightly as to bring the nose near the
tail-nearer in the less nervous animal
and not so near in the more nervous
and tied with a running moose which
may be loosened In moment by pulling
on the fore end. Or in place of tying it
may be held in the hand tightly, but
ready TO be slackened when necessary.
Most horses in these circumstances will
turn rapidly round toward the side to
which the head and tail are turned, and
the more rapid the turning the sooner
will the animal become dizzy and will
fall on the opposite side if the process
is too long continued. If the horse de-
clines to turn, or turns slowly, he may
be made to do IL more actively by strik-
ing the nose gently with the whip. 1t
is not necessary, however, 10 whirl him
till he falls: Re need only to be made
giddy. After a few turns, touch his
quarters, rump, thighs. hooks and
shanks with light pole. He may kick
or try to. at first, but the pole must be
applied lightly again and again, and lie
will soon dismiss all thought of kicking
The pole must be repeatedly brought in
contact with all parts of the hind limbs
inside and out, until he no longer fears
or resents it, but takes il as a matter OF
course. As the effect of turning TO one
side is liable to be temporary. Il is best
TO loosen the horse in a few minutes
tie him on the other side, and let him
turn for a while in that direction The
pole can now be brought more effect
lively in contact with the whole of the
other hind quarter and leg so that the
horse becomes educated to bear it at all
points without fear or retaliation.

Rye for Hogs.

Why not drop out wheat and use rye
instead on hog farms? The Swine
Breeders Journal names some advan-
tages rye has over wheat.
1T is harder plant and can be sown
with hope Of success when wheat is al
most sure TO fail. When the weather
is favorable it can be cast in the growing
corn and covered with a shovel pillow or
cultivator, although it is safer to SOW il
with the same care exercised in sowing
wheat, after the corn is cut. 1t will
make a quicker growth fall and winter
than wheat, will stand short grazing
and then if desired perfect a crop BY
letting the hogs harvest it, il has an ad-
vantage over wheat, still, some one says,
wheat can be hogged down. Well, so it
can, but if the weather is wet, the loss
from decay and sprouting is much
greater. When rye is hogged down the
hogs carry nothing away except the
meat produced. the straw being left on
the land making an excellent mulch for
young grass. Rye is better to start
clover in than wheat. the shade is not
50 dense Experience has also shown
that clover is not injured by pasturing
the rye. AS good a stand of clover as
could be desired is secured by sowint,
the seed about the middle of April on
land sown 10 rye in October. The stock
went on this field as soon after the clover
to allow and remained during the sea-
son. Notwithstanding the close pastur-

Rye with a good growth Of clover In 1t
makes excellent hog range, and we know
Of no preparation better than this for
roundup on new corn. The hogs can be
held off without any serious loss till
IL can be made to reach new corn. Grow
ing rye and hogging down saves the
heavy harvest work Incidental TO wheat.
We call to mind a crop Of rye grown
and hogged down years ago. When the
hogs were turned on il was worked down,
the straws breaking about eighteen
inches in hight At this time the
medium red clover was coming out in
bloom, the heads showing above the
straw broken rye. The hogs did first
rate on this field. We are satisfied that
farmers would find il profitable To grow
rye in rotation as we have indicated in
stead of wheat. Under favorable con-
ditions much land that is sown to wheat
does not give a profta bic return. Just
such land sOwn to rye will almost TO
certainty bring a good crop"
