GRAIN MARKET DULL
Unusually Light Movement
in Local Markets.
FARMERS DAMAND HIGHER PRICE
Old Grain Supply Short and New Crop
Not Yet Harvested.
FARMERS DAMAND HIGHER PRICE

An unusual apathy marks the wheat
market these hot days, when collars
and cuffs become ornaments only.
Every one seems interested in the
harvest which is just opening, and so
far none of the wheat growers seem
Inclined to sell. Prices range near
So cents for bluestem, but the figure
is at least cents too low to interest
sellers, and buyers claim that to be
he top of the market.
There is no selling and not even
contracting. No one wants to sell un-
til crop conditions are ascertained,
and buyers have no instructions to
buy for future delivery. In a short
time harvest will be under way, and
the crop can be estimated accurately.
Until then there promises to be lull
in local markets, and grain buyers will
have but little to do save keep cool.
1t would seem that prices will open
higher than last year by Is to 20
cents but the crop will be somewhat
short The fall market will open in a
month. when great deal Of the grain
will be ready for shipment to tide
water.

Daily Union, Junction City, Kan
sas: Cambell Brothers big show
came in early this morning from Nc
Pherson where 1t showed yesterday to
a large satisfied audience. About
10:30 the parade took place and it was
witnessed by an enormous crowd of
people, much larger, in fact, than
was expected. Washington street
was lined with people on both sides.
People were present from all parts of
the county eager to see the parade
and attend the performances. The
parade was much better than the peo-
pie expected to see and as a result the
attendance at the show this afternoon
was very large. Before the perfor-
nance it seemed that every seat was
occupied which is saying a good deal
when it is known tina: Campbell Bros.
main tent is an enormous affair.
What's more, everybody seemed to
have got their moneys worth and was
well satisfied with thu performance.
One nice thing about this circus
was the absence of the usual troop of
fakirs and gamblers. The people at
the head of this big show are gentle
men and they have q show that every
body wants to see. This evening a
larger attendance is expected than
even this afternoon.
You will not be disappointed if you
attend the performance tonight.
