Some Interc~:inG observations On
One OF Natures Wonders.

Tie very fact that the waters OF
oceans are salty is wonder within IL
self. That such is the case everybody
knows, but why? Rivers are not SALT
neither are some of the very largest
of inland seas, yet one school of scien-
fists will tell YOU that these same seas
Qakes) are the remains Of what was
once universal ocean, that there was
once an upheaval of the land and that
all the waters settled in basins except
that which drained off. If this is a
fact. why are these lakes or seas now
fresh? Don't tell me, says IN invesu-
gator. that it is because they have been
evaporating through the long centuries
and that the vacancy has been sup
piled by fresh waters from rivers.
Great Salt lake is no less salty now
than it was 5000 years ago and prob
ably a great deal more so.
The water of the Caribbean sea IS
dense compared with that of the At
lantic in the vicinity Of the Cape Verde
islands, the proportion being eleven to
twenty-one. Why is this? 1t is GER
tainly fact that they are both of one
body of water. The variety Of saline
matter found in all sea water is univer-
sally the same. There is another fact
which should be mentioned while we
are classifying sea water-that is this:
When the sadness Of oceans is refer
red to. it must not be understood as be-
ing the table salt of commerce Cchlo-
ride Of sodium, for there. are many
other salts in the solution. Expert by
drographers tell us that there are
enough of these various salts held in
suspension in the waters Of the oceans
to cover the whole landed surface or
the globe to a depth Of 100 feet-in
other words, that there is G0,OOO,OOO,-
OOO,OOO,OOO tons so held in suspension!
The sea is salt by reason Of the earth
washings which are poured into it.

SEVERE BREAK in WHEAT

asc. Provisions were erratic. but the close
was steady and unchanged to 2l9Q5c lower.
Wheat prices fiuctuated nervously during
the latter half of the session, a severe
break being experienced late in the day
on general selling by locals and pit traders.
The opening was easier on lower cables and
large worlds shipments, and May was I'M
changed to a shade lower at 74s4c to 74A4
747sc. The market held quite steady early
in the day on the strength in corn, and May
sold at zoe. Expectations of a bearish gov
eminent report tomorrow caused consid
cradle selling later, and May broke to 73&4c.
but good demand from commission houses
and shorts brought about a rally, and the
close was at 7411c, net loss OF 149ssc.
Clearances of wheat and flour were 6S5.OOO
bushels. Primary receipts were 5S5.0oo
bushels, against $4,000 a year ago. Mime
apolis and Duluth reported receipts OF $50
cars, which with. local receipts of thirty
six cars, none Of contract grade, made
total of SOS cars, against 4S3 last week and
479 a year ago.
There was a strong sentiment in the corn
pit, and in spite of the weakness in wheat,
which caused temporary decline, higher
prices were realized, May closing at adj
vance of sake at 4712Q4Tssc, after selling
between 467sc and 47&@47%c. Opening
prices were somewhat easier on lower ca
bles, but with a good commission house de-
mand and light offerings the market ad-
vanced. The break in wheat caused mo-
mentary recession, but clearances of over
a million bushels soon brought about a
rally, and the close was strong. Receipts
were 339 cars, of contract grade.
There was only moderate trade In oats
but a firm feeling prevailed, influenced
largely by the strength in corn. while the
light offerings added to the strength of the
situation. Shorts were the best buyers.
The close was strong, with May Lq2sc
higher at 347sG35c, after ranging between
341aG34esc and 35c. Receipts were 266 cars.
Trading in provisions was quite active
and prices were somewhat erratic, the
opening being strong on higher prices at
the yards, followed by a decline on selling
by packers. Covering by shorts caused a
rally, and closing prices were about steady,
May pork being 215c lower at S1S.321s. lard
