FARMERS FEEDING WHEAT.
Prices Are Low and Grain Is Being
Held Back.

Abilene, Nov. 1S.-Wheat is coming
to market very slowly. The mills are
getting barely enough to grind with
and are wondering what is the matter
With large crop and a shortage of
other grain there should be a desire to
sell, but the farmers seem to be in no
hurry. Reports from Canton and
Lindsborg in Mcpherson county, from
the buyers here and at Salina all tell
the same story of a slow marketing.
Occasionally a buyer is we'll satisfied
as a the Hoffman mills at Enterprise
which are receiving more than at this
time last year.
Two reasons are assigned for the
holding of wheat: The farmers have no
place to invest the money and hope for
higher prices and they are counting on
feeding wheat to their stock.
The Hoffman mills kept record of
farmers replies to the question. How
much wheat will you feed?' last week,

ottawa Is: K. @. Medics o.

Ottawa. Kas., Nov 1S.-The Univer
sity Medics were smothered here Sat
urday afternoon on the college campus
by the Ottawa team. The score was
IS to 0. The game was hard fought
one. During the greater part of the
first half it looked like anybody's game.
Both teams were strong when they had
the ball, seldom failing to make the re-
quired gains. The ball during the first
half was carried by the Baptists to
their goal and lost. Then the MedicS
got it and carried it to their goal line,
when Captain Jack Evans, for Ottawa,
got the ball and ran the full length of
the field for a touchdown. In the sec
ond half Ottawa limbered up and went
through the Medics like a cyclone. Sew
eral men on both sides were hurt but
all of the Ottawa men stayed in.

Texas IL; Missouri O.

Columbia, Mo-, Nov. 1S.-The same old
story-Texas university defeated Mis-
souri, on Rollins field Saturday, by
score of IL to 0. Missouri showed much
improvement over her previous form
this year, displaying in the first Is
minutes of play some of the best play
ing seen here in a long time. Texas,
however. played much the better game,
and won by superior work at all stages.
The game was characterized by a great
deal of fumbling and offside play, Mis-
souri, being the chief offender in the
former, and in offside play honors were
about even. Missouri toward the end
of the second half lost a great deal of
ground by not being able to hold the
ball. On nearly every play a tumble
WAS made.

Referee Page decided the best thing to
do was to call the game draw.
Washburn claims that the decision
should have been Washburn 6, Medlcs
0, and the Medics claim that the de-
cision should have been MedicS 6,
Washburn 0. The sympathy of the
crowd was with the doctors but there
was general dissatisfaction because the
game was not finished. Captain Gill
was very anxious during the wrangle
that the time keepers should watch the
time limit of two minutes allowed for
time to be taken out. When he thought
that time was up and that the default
decision would go to his team he left

The playing of the two teams was
about equal but if either had the best
of the contest it was the Medics and the
ball was in Washburns territory most
of the time. In the first half the Medics
kicked off and Washburn carried the
ball we'll into Medic territory. Then the
doctors took it on a tumble and by
