Common and Medium Offerings Drop

Common and Medium Offerings Drop
/ Lower Under Lighter Demand
Chicago, June 26-Common and
medium offerings have displayed weak
ness throughout the transactions of
the week, with the bulk of sales of this
Bclass generally closing unevenly low
er. The Wane of demand for farm
chunks and plain arrivals with advent
of the summer trade has depressed
this commercial class $10020 for the
month and the present narrow and in
Inherent demand is destined to force
values for common grades still lower
In the immediate future. While good
to choice receipts are nominally steady
iat a summer decline of $5@10, the
movement is less aggressive at the
tdecline than during the spring trade.
The approach of the national holiday
is always accompanied with the
height of the usual summer dulInest
and dealers 1oNs for an Indifferent
trade for the NAT two weeks In all

found outlet at s165@215 and upward
for fancy stall fed grades. Express
ers are $5@10 lower at s135@170,s
with common offerings slow at 500
1870. Drivers commence to feel the eff
fects of the summer interia and find
narrower demand from all quarters at
$140@365, with light plain kinds hard
to sell at $65@115. Eastern chunks
and wagon horses were among the best
sellers of the week on eastern ac-
count of s10@140. While general
trade is not unevenly lower under an
Indifferent summer demand, which
carried down good offerings $5@10 and

WATERMELON HERE
LUSCIOUS FRUIT FROM SUNNY
SOUTH HAS MADE ITS APP
PEARANcE ON MARKET.
Article That. TickIes the Palate Of the
colored Youth and PIeases the
White Boys Are Procurabie From
Ottumwa Grocers-LocaI Markets.

The big, green, striped, luscious
fruit of Georgias vines that is said to
tickle the palate of the black faced
youth and cause white boys to make
long excursions through the night is
here. In other words, the watermelon
season is on and hundreds of melons
lie temptingly in front of the grocery
stores and fruit houses.
The news from the seat of war is
cheering to the hover of this fruit. !. IT
ITS said that the conditions which
cause a good growth of the water
melon have been in abundance in the
sunny south, and there is great Joy
rs a result. The products of the first
growth which have arrived In thfs city
have been agents OF Joy because the
quality is fully up to the best. The
price just at the present time is not
sthch that the melon could be, made an
economical diet, but it's costliness only
serves to make it more appreciated.
However, there are better days com
ting.
The melons now being served in the
Vocal market are from the sandy fields
'of Georgia. They are not as large as
the melons that are yet to come AS
matter of fact when they are picked
they are mot exactly ripe, but the
time between the harvest and the final
disposition is depended upon to put

Some Spraying R esults
Hints For the Farmer

which sprayii1p was discontinued early
in the season; q. those receiving
number of sprayings throughout the
season; 3. those left unsprayed un-
til late in the season.
In one orchard of 10 trees all in
healthy condition the treatment was
applied. The orchard had never been
sprayed until the previous season,
when IL was given one application OF
Bordeaux mixture just as the blossoms
We're bursting. While the trees We're
In full bloom a freeze killed the blos-
SONS and spraying was discontinued
during the remainder of the season,
The apple scab had been prevalent
for several years and as could only
be expected the attack was repeated
during the past season.
In order to check it an early spray
ing of Bordeaux mixture was given
just before blosson1fng time With
the exception of few trees reserved
for comparative purposes the entire
orchard received this first application.
-Four other spraNings were. given conn
posed of a combination of, Bordeaux
[arsenfte of soda and arsenaste of lead.
An examination for results was
made by sampling at picking time, the
sample consisting of 1,0G0 apples.
Trees that were unsprayed bore 48 per
cent of scabby fruit In one plot
and then two appEicationsf of arsenate
of lead 995 apples We're free front
worms and only five were worny. Tbs
cut shows the results. The five are
piled to the right.
An average of results from unspray-
ed plots in three widely separated orr
chards shows that had no spraying
been done In these orchards during tho
past season 40 per cent of the picked
apple crop would have shown injury
from codrfng moth at. harvest Tho
results from sprayed plots averaged
only 8 per cent woFnly fruit. In other
words 81 per cent of the fruit front
sprayed plots was free from injury al
sprayed plots only 81 per cent could
be SO cfassed.-Chicago Drovers' Jourl

Most farmers do not fully realize
the full value of spraying. When it IS
remembered that the injury done, to the
fruit and truck crops of the United
States is about $S0.000,000 per, year
and that a great many of the insects
doing this immense damage can be
controlled by the use of the spray its
value will be somewhat realized. Many
experiments have proved conclusively
that 1t Is necessary to spray If fruit
production is to be a financial sue
cess. One of the most serious enemies
of the apple is the codling moth, 1t
causing great loss in our apple crop
annually. The best specific known for
the codling Is spraying with Bordeaux
mixture. This mixture Is made by
using pounds of copper ,ulphate and
4 to pounds of stone lime dissolved In
s gallons of water Wherever Bor-
deauX mixture has been tried it has
proved satisfactory.
1t has been conclusively demonstrate
ed that If the apple be coated with a
thin layer of poison at the point
where the young worm eats it's way In
enough will be be consumed to cause
the death Of the insect, and spraying
has been found to be the best way of
applying the poison.
| At the Ohio station experiments
were planned during the spring OF
1904 with the view Of obtaining data
on best time to spray and to decide il
possible how many applications of
poison are necessary to control the
cooling moth from commercial
standpoint.
In order that the results might
serve as a guide for the growers In all
parts of the state three widely, separ-
|ated orchards were selected for the
test. The general principles employ
ed in the treatment of each orchard
We're practically the same. They We're
first divided into plats SO situated that
the trees contained therein might
represent as nearly as possible a fair
average of the whole orchard. One
the plots was left unsprayed for check
or comparative purposes. The re-
naming plots were grouped and
treated in three ways: l. Those in

THE LAST @eRAy BEARD
Washington Brown, Aged Ninety-Two,
Died At His Home in keosauqua.

The following article from the Keo-
sauqua Republican tells of the death
of Washington Brown, who died June
20:
Washington Brown Of eKosauqua,
died at the home of his son, S.M. Brown,
June 20, from stroke of paralysis
that came to him last Sunday morning
at the ripe old age of 80 years, a
months and 10 days. He served during
the war in Company c of the famous
Gray Beard regiment, properly the
Thirty seventh Iowa infantry. Mr..
Brown is the last of the Gray
Boards" During the past several
years notices of deaths of members
of his regiment have been given as
"The Last of the Gray Boards which
was incorrect as long as Mr.. Brown
survived, but our opinion is that we
give a correct heading to this death
notice in naming Mr. Brown as the
last. Not over ten days ago this good
old man walked from his home across
the river to the main part of town.
and the writer and other citizens had
the pleasure of shaking hands with
him. But we will not do it any more"

Beef cattfs,.

Closing prices for choice fat steers,
principally those which have lately
sold above s5.25,. show range about
on a level with that noted at the close
of last week, but the trade in other
classes has not recovered much of the
decline noted last Monday, when heavy
receipts Were here, and these now
stand largely 15c lower than one week
ago The market has ruled quite I'M
even during the week and some sellers
quote even choice kinds little lower
though as a rule the bulk of late sales
OF these grades, have been steady.
Receipts for the week, totaling 49,
-405 show a decrease of 1000 from the
run here last week and $4,000 in COM
parison with arrivals a year ago last
week. This big decrease in supplies
from last weeks total has been only
in line with the generally reduced de-
mand, and 1t has been fortunate that
supplies have not been much heavier.
2 The general consumptive outlet is
still badly elogged, and while condf-
lions have been considerably relieved
II: the late days, both buyers and sales
men state that there is not sufficient
