CHICAGO, Oct. There was less ac-
tivity in both the grain and provisions
markets on the Board of Trade, and
prices were again weak. December wheat
closed A@3sc lower, December corn was
$sc lower and oats closed Nc lower. Pro-
visions closed TIC to 10@1214c lower for
the January delivery.
Wheat was weak early in the day, due
to selling by commission houses on fair
weather in the Northwest and West.
Better grading and heavy primary re-
.ceipts were also bear factors. About the
only bullish features were steady cables
and small estimated receipts for tomor-
row. Trading throughout the day was
light. The opening on December was ir-
regular, 1sc lower to 1sc higher at 695sc
to $3.50, later selling down to 69Ac. The
close was at 59as @531Ac.
Big Increase in Worlds Supply.
Bradstreet's report for the week shows
an increase in the worlds supplies of
and flour were equal to $4,000 bushels.
Primary receipts were 1,770,95S bushels,
compared with 1,110,357 bushels year
ago. Minneapolis and Duluth reported
receipts of LAO cars, while local re-
ceipts were 245 CARS of contract grade
making total receipts for the thrse
points of 1,4S5 cars, against 1,427 cars
last week and 1,O41 cars a year ago.
Trading in corn was less active than
of late, and the sentiment was consider
ably mixed. Easiness prevailed early,
with free selling of December by pror2i
nent long. Shorts covered freely on the
decline, causing slight rally, but owing
to lack of support another reaction fol-
lowed. Good weather was a bear fea
ture. December opened B@Ac to 40
aac lower, at 481sc to 1850. On the de-
cline the price dropped to 4SAc, but on
covering by shorts there was a rally to
4SAc. 1he close was &c lower at 4S3s %
4SRc. Local receipts were 172 cars, with
Is of contract grade.
Weakness in Oats.
There was a moderate trade in oats
with the market following corn. Com
mission houses bought freely early, CIV
ing fair support to the market but later
on renewed selling by elevators and re-
ce1vlng houses, weakness prevailed De-
cember opened h@Ac to Nc lower at
tween 32@32Bc and 32kc, closing Nc
lower at 32Ac. Local receipts were 161
cars
Lower prices for hogs at the yards and
weakness in grains caused provisions to
rule weaker. Trading was dull, with
outsiders taking profits. Closing prices
We're lower all around, January pork clos
ing 1Oc lower at $15.7O, lard 10@121kc
lower, at $S.S71A and ribs 71ac lower at
1925.
The estimated receipts for tomorrow:
Wheat, 80 cars; corn, 20 cars; oats, 105
cars and $4,000 head of hogs.

MINNEAPOLIS.

Minneapolis-The principal influence u
grain came from favorable weather
map. The weather was so extremely ia
vorable everywhere as to be really re-
markable. There was a trace of rain so
slight as scarcely to show at all at Du-
luth; another slight trace at Columbus,
Ohio and, with these exceptions, the en-
tire country was clear. The Minneapolis
in Chicago corn were naturally pleased at
the conditions favorable for a free move
ment, and this feeling was increased by
the later predictions of continued fair
weather for tonight and Wednesday.
Trading was extremely light in all the
pits. Minneapolis December opened at
663s @66bc, and changed scarcely Ac
either way during the early part of the
session.
The cash market was active with de-
mand for the good lots on spot and some
inquiry for milling wheat to arrive. No.

THE FnRM GRINJSTONE.
1iuch of Its Usefulness and Avnila"
biIity Lepen@s on the Way in
Which 1t Is mounted.

The olu-fas shioned hOme-mounted
grinGstone Is rapidly going out OF use
ON the modern tArm. NAen a bali
bearing stone, mounted with loot
power attachments ana furnished with
seat for the operator, can be pur-
cna.ed for less than So, the farmer VINO
has need of a new grlnostone and who
has workshop or other place to keep
it, is generally willing to pay few
cents more when purchasing and get
one of the ready mounted convenienees
instead of buying a stone and fixtures
and doing the mounting himself. For
certain kinds of work. however. the
stone with a crank for hand-power is
sometimes prefera BILE to one operated
by foot power. The man holding the
tool or object to be ground can give
more attention to what he is doing
when he does not have to use his feet
10 keep the stone turning. and can hold
the tool more steadily.
To do good and speedy work IN most
cases the grindstone should revolVe
as fast as possible. and in Fig / is
shown a method of mounting that per-
mits greater speed than the ordinary

method. This way of hanging is best
adapted to stones of not too great di-
ameter. With too large stone the in
crease of speed might be more than
counterbalanced by the extra power
required to turn the crank. To mount
a grindstone in this manner, obtain
first a two-inch plank about four feet
in length and as wide as possible. say
IS inches. At the center of plank
mortise three holes in which to insert
solidly three two by three-inch up
rights, which serve as bearings for the
grindstone and the cog wheels. Two
of the uprights are each twenty-four
inches long and the other twelve
inches. The two long upright pieces
may be spaced apart to agree with
thickness Of the cog wheels and the
shorter upright. at side of grindstore

the stone. Procure two metal cog
wheels from some piece Of unused ma
chinery, one fifteen inches and the
other three inches in diameter. Have
the large wheel turn on an axle with
a crank. in bearings on top of long up-
right pieces. and engage in the teeth
of the small wheel. The small cog VIII eel
