GRAIN NOTES..

There was a better tone to wheat at
the opening yesterday. due to compare
lively firm cables and smaller receipts
The early trading was inclined to dull
ness. although there were fair offerings
of Nav but local traders were bullish,
and the offerings were well taken
Firluer cables and good cash demand
were bull factors. Outside Of a little
buying by locals there was no feature to
the situation. May opened unchanged to
l-sc higher Local receipts were 14s cars,
with seven Of contract grade.
Oats sympaIhized with other grains,
and although there was fair selling at
the opening prices were about steady.
Wit. MAY unchanged to l-Sc. higher, at

wish to get married and the ceremony
must be performed tonight"
Flanagan said that he thought Capt.
John Kelly could arrange the matter.
He escorted the couple to the Seventh
street police station and sent for JUS
tice Martin ID. Kelly. When he was
told why his services were needed and
that 1T would be necessary for him to
provide witnesses, he called on Arthur
McGraw and Miss Fanny Ludwig, two
neighbors, who accompanied him to
the police station.
Justice Kelly was about to perform
the ceremony when IL was discovered
that the prospective bridegroom had
failed to provide himself with a ring.
Having taken the measure of the
brides finger, Capt. Kelly sent an Of
ficer to arouse jeweler on Pavonia
avenue and the ring was secured with
little delay. After that the ceremony
was quickly performed.
The bridegroom said he was Francis
B. Riker, of Brooklyn, and the bride
described herself as Ada NJ. Dunn, %
years old, also of Brooklyn, employed
as Stenographer by a New York firm.
They said Miss Dunn's parents object
ed to her marrying on the ground that
she was too young. Mr.. Riker said he
and Miss Dunn talked the matter over
and finally concluded to go to Jersey
City and be married. They had little
doubt that the brides parents would
forgive her.

Feeding wheat to the Hogs.

Farmers frequently have a quantity
OF wheat that is not merchantable and
would be glad if they could convert the
same into cash. This is easily done IF
he has few hogs to feed. Get a coal
oil barrel; fill three bushels of wheat
in the barrel; heat Is gallons of water
till 1T boils; then pour it over the
wheat; cover close so as to prevent
the steam from escaping; let stand for
Is hours, at which time it will be in
prime condition to feed. One bushel
will produce IA or IS pounds of pork.
so that there need be no loss to the
farmer, though his wheat be musty. I
nave practiced this method of feeding
wheat for ten or more years, and am
feeding it now once a day to nv hogs
and shall realize at least so cents ner
bushel from its use.-E. F. IsIey. in

Pork for the Farmer.

The farmer that can produce the
pork for his own family without hav-
ing to depend on the outside market
is indeed lucky. He can have all the
expenses of shipping, freight commits
sions and the profits of wholesalers
and retailers. He'll cannot only pro-
duce the kind of pork that suits him
best, but he can produce healthy pork.
He can feed his hogs food that will
produce hard instead of soft pork.
The objection to producing a high
class hog for the markets. that it costs
the farmer much more in the way Of
feed and he gets no more for him. Nat
urally the farmer, when raising hogs
for his own consumption, can afford
to produce the high-class hog, and it
is his aim to produce pork that con-
tains large proportion of lean meat
and very small proportion of fat. It
will be in the interest of his family's
health to do so.-Farmers' and Mer-
chants Review.
