further upwards, gaining another 4
10 IL points under a renewal of the
covering noted yesterday afternoon
and fresh bun support.
The bulls were evidently making a
strong effort to re-establish their po-
sition, but they were met with deter
mined selling on the part of their OPP
ponents, and after August had reach
ed 4Sc, September 10 SOC, October
s.S6c, and December 9.64c, the bears
sold very aggressively, carrying prices
downward from the best of the morn
ing from II to % points. Then the bulls
again bought more vigorously and sales
were forced back to about the opening
level. Following this the market was
very irregular. Right after midday
there was sudden burst of bearish
activity that forced prices down to the
lowest point of the session, the gen.
eral list showing a net loss from to
y points on the active months. But
again the bulls came to the support of
values as the selling diminished and
brought about a partial reaction; only
TO meet with further bear pressure
which in turn gave way just before
the close to active support supposed
to originate with the New Orleans pool
Which caused the market to turn firm
again, and the close was firm a little
below the opening, but still showing a
net gain for the day of 3013 points.
Total sales of futures were estimated
at 1000 bales.
The decline, following the initial add
vance, was encouraged by the reaction
in Liverpool, favorable climatic con-
ditions and a full movement while the
bulls were aided by rather unsatisfac-
tory private crop, advices, including
reports of damage from boil weevil In
Texas.

cific were the only stocks to gain as
much as this.
The further engagement of $1,50O,000
gold for export and the early sharp
rally in the cotton market seemed to
have no effect in checking the rise In
stocks. 1t was after cotton had re-
acted that the unresponsiVeness of the
stock market to the stimulation OF
light professional buying was perceived.
Prices thereupon sagged off and the
whole market fell back into its rut OF
stagnation. The rally in the cotton
market is regarded as natural in
cident of the process of settlement TO
a normal basis in that market, but
until the settlement is completed the
expected benefits to the financial and
general business structure are not like
ly to become evident.
Active railroad bonds were pretty
steady, but high grade inactive issues
are settling to a lower price basis.

New York, July s.-Professional
traders made another unavailing at

During the early market the rate of
activity was equal to expanded deal

but the subsequent relapse was into
such complete stagnation that the
total dealings for the day dropped
back to about the low record level for

GOT TO
Have Sharp Brains Nowadays or Drop

The man of to-day no matter what
his calling, needs a sharp brain and
to get this he needs food that not only
gives muscle and strength but brain
and nerve power. as well.
A carpenter and builder of Mar
quette, Mich, who is energetic and
wants to advance in his business,
read an article about food in a re-
ligious paper and in speaking of his
experience he said: up to three
year ago 1 had not been able to study
or use my thinking powers to any ex-
tent. There was something lacking
and I know now that it was due to
the fact that my food was not rebuild
ing my brain.
About this time 1 began the use
of the condensed food Grape-Nuts and
the result has been 1 can think and
plan with some success. 1t has not
only rebuilt my brain until it is
stronger and surer and more ac-
tive, but my muscles are also harder
and more firm where they used to
be loose and soft and my stomach
is now in perfect condition: 1 can
endure more than twice the amount
of fatigue and my nights rest always
completely restores me. In other
words am enjoying life, and 1 at
tribute it to the fact that have found

ONE OF THE LARGEST IRRIGATING CANALS
IN THE WORLD.
A Project of the State OF Idaho.

On the west side of the Snake river
in Idaho, between Blackfoot and Ameri-
can Falls, there is being constructed by
the American Falls Canal & Power COM
pany, under a contract with the state of
Idaho, an irrigating canal IS feet wide
and 60 miles long. When finished, this
canal will be one of the largest and
most perfect irrigating systems in the
world. By its means a valley of 100, 900
acres of the most fertile and productive
fruit and farm land in America will be
reclaimed
The climate of this valley is ideal.
Cyclones, hot winds, floods or destruc-
tive storms have never been known.
Grain, grass, vegetables and all varie-
ties of fruit grow in abundance. A
healthful climate, a sure crop, heavy
yield, high prices and a ready market,
are features of this country.
Ten thousand acres of this rich land
are now ready for irrigation aud settle
ment. Purchase tickets to Blackfoot
via Oregon Short Line Railway Co.

Cattlemen Will Fight.

Topeka, Aug. 24.-The Western Kan
sas cattlemen are preparing to resist
the suits started by the government to
require them to tear down their fences
around their ranches and keep them
down. They claim they have not got
any government land fenced and that
their fences are within the require
ments of the federal law. Strictly
speaking, they have not got any gov
eminent land entirely surrounded by
fences. They use gaps of mile or SO
and use line riders to keep the cattle in
where there arc no fences.

Of railroad commissioners has set the

all answered to complaint. Their de-
Tense is that the cattle rate question is
interstate in it's character and that the
Kansas board has no jurisdiction. They
alao claim the new rates to go into
effect on September 1 are equitable and
that they do not amount to an increase
in general, but are really an equaliza-
ton of present rates. The cattlemen
claim the new schedule raises present
rates from Is to 20 per cent

The Question Answered.

Estill Springs, Tenn. Aug. oath
Many questions are being asked of
Mr.. c. D. Holt Of this place in regard
to his wonderful recovery. For over
two years he has been down with his
back. He was so very bad that he
could not even lace his shoes, and
from this condition he suddenly ap-
peared well and strong as ever.
1t is no wonder therefore that his
friends are asking him How did you
do it?"
He tells them all: "Dodd's Kidney
Pills did it," and adds This remedy
is a genuine good medicine and one
that I can heartily recommend to
everybody.
Everyone around here knows how
very bad I was. l was so weak in
my back that 1 couldn't do anything
that needed STOPPING or bending over,
and three boxes of Dodd's Kidney
Pills made me as you see, as we'll as
ever 1 was"

effect on my case"

American Maearonl Wheat.

Macaroni wheat seed was first i'm
ported in 1901. The following facts
are attested by South Dakato farmers:
It's yield is 60 to 120 per cent greater
than that of blue stem and Fife

the Italian; the demand for it is
greater than the supply; its bread is
more nutritious, and, to many, more
palatable than ordinary bread.
