Chicago, July 1.-More rain must fall

operators is to spread to the ranks of
the farmers in the central and western
states of the country. The weather
man says so. in the same breath with
which he puts forth his apology for the
downpour that has deluged Chicago
and everything to the west of here
during the past two months, and the
reports being gathered by the various
railroad officials bears him out.
On the board of trade. tho, the men
who trade in the grain that the farm
ers of surrounding states are nurturing
thru these wet days are not waiting for
the coming of the additional storms.
Where a year ago prices Went soaring
because of the hot spells and the lack
of heavy rains, so now they are rocket
ing skyward for exactly opposite rea-

The continued cold weather. with its
half hidden threat of retarded growth
of crops of all sorts, and the admitted
drenching of every field in the adjacent
states that holds a crop of marketable
product. put the traders on thier mettle
yesterday. and the efforts of the
shorts" all over the floor to make
good against possible losses pushed the
purchase price we'll up and created no
