MARKET REVIEW.
late Reports direct from the Chi
~cago Board Of Trade,

Chicago, Oct. 18.-No such contin-
uously strong market for wheat as
the present one has been seen for
years, and the American farmer was
never in better position to realize
top notch prices for his grain.
It has not been a spasmodic, fever
ish market with sudden, unnatural
advances followed by severe depres-
sion before producers we're able to
realize on their holdings, but for the
last three months there has been a
market which, while not steadily adj
vancing to the dollar mark, has held
steady at 80 cents or better, It has
been and is today a market which en-
ables the grain raiser to select his
own time for sales and still be sure of
getting a price at which his crop rep
resents most profitable investment
of capital and labor.
''To produce such a market" said a
member of the firm of Schwartz, Du-
pee & Co., ''there must have been in
operation natural laws which in end
always govern economic situations
and problems. In this instance this

BABYs SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with ScrofuIa Sores.
AT the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. It
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. 8. s. WRoTEN, Farming

means that there has been and is still
existing natural scarcity of grain
supplies in every country of the civil
lied world except the United States
and that we are enjoying the fruits
of that condition in our present high
prices. An evidence of this is that
while the worlds total ship
ments of last week we're 9,455.O0O
bushels, the United States cleared
6,039,O0O bushels or about two-thirds
of the whole amount. Such statistics
are more valuable than any amount
of enthusiasm based on evidences of
prosperity that are wholly local, be-
cause they reveal condition of affairs
which not only show present posi-
ton of great strength for this country
in the markets of the world but also
indicate that such favorable attitude
cannot be changed until another
wheat crop-and it must be bumper
one-is in sight from other countries
besides the United States"
1t is for these reasons that many of
the shrewdest men in the trade are
favorable to the bull side of wheat,
