In the City Of the Dead.
(Somerset Reporter.)


In passing through one Of the most
beautiful cemeteries in this State, the
other day, We noticed an entire lot COW
cred completely with flowers called the
golden glow" The appropriateness of
such decorations is evident from the
reading OF the Word of God, where the
future abode of the spirit is spoken OF
as the city with pavcments of gold,
holding the golden candlesticks, having
gates of gold and jasper, and where
the perfume Of incense constantly t.
rises from golden censerS.

s WHEAT-Sentiment in wheat has IN =
week The government report was con-
strueG as moderately bearish by the trade
m general, although values We're not ma
terfally decreased, as the report was prac-
tically discounted in advance. The OUTLOOK
in the three northwestern states. while
somewhat improved by better weather
conditions, is not just what it should be,
and We are liable to have Minneapolis
leading another sharp advance in near fu-
provement in foreign demand. DnIaNor-
able harvest reports continue to come
expected. with the yield much smaller than
last year. We have had a good break IN
and we believe short selling at the present
figures involves considerably more risk
than conservative buying.
-CORN-The corn situation IS someMnae
mixed. While the government report lnul-
Gated possibly record crop, numerous re-
ports of firing came in from all sections
of the corn belt These reports were. so
numerous and persistent as to induce I'D
eral buying of the deferred futures ny
There is a heavy short interest in corn
that should not be lost sight OF, but, tax
ing the situation in a broad sense, we are
inclined to favor sales on good bulges.
OATS-Oats are not an attractive spec
ulative commodity just now and trade
is very light. Prices held within maroon,
range throughout the week The crop VIII
be slightly smaller than last years, and
present values would seem to be about
low enough.
