CHICAGO GRAIN
By Associated Press.

CHICAGO Nov. 23.--rhe wheat ndrkot
opened firm on buying by shorts, which was
based on the opening strength Of the stock
market
Foreign grain markets, however. were weak.
and this induced considerable profit taking.
Weakness on the corn market also inspired ad-
ditional sales. During the last half OF the
renewed covering by shorts, due to the con-
tinued buoyancy Of the stock market. The
market closed strong. December opened a
shade to zc higher at 90MQ9Olsc, sold off to
Sg%c and then advanced to 91I@c. The close
was at 90Hc. May opened hn&c higher at

ST. 1007sQt01 The close at s100ssG1.0O 0O%.
The corn market was decidedly weak early
in the day on account of the selling brought
out by favorable reports of the weather, by
curing of the new crop and still further de-
cline in the price of live hogs. Shorts, how
ever, covered freely in the last half of the
session, which caused a recovery of all the
early loss. The market closed firm. December
opened 1s@ssc lower at 52M521sc, sold off to
o1hc and then advanced to 52Ac.
The close at 52asc May sold between

THANKSGIVING WEEK
PROMISES STRONG
PAST six DAYS RECORDED Rfe
VOLUME OF BUSINESS
All Lines Of Produce, Staples and Lux
uries, Are Maintaining Firmer
Quotations Than for Some
Time

The run OF market through the past week
has been very satisfactory, oil things con-
sioered. There probably only one day
when the stronger movement with which the
week opened was not observable
This week should discount its predecessor
The prospect for the Thanksgiving trade
locks good the demand In many lines lead
ms prices a little higher
Potatoes were flrmer. the better grade rul-
ing around top quotations. Receipts doubled
ovef preceding day.
Butter receipts jumped from 602S to 1914
pounds. The Increase however. had no effect
on price as IL only helped to fill up the gap
in stock made by former light arrivals
Eggs remained unchanged.
Onions were higher. Yellow Danyers
brc ught as high as $3.50 and so did Red
Globes. Market has been considered good In
this line all week.
Turkeys are holding to stronger quotations
as Is to be expected. However the week rs
likely TO open with heavier receipts which
may weaken prices some.
Nc change was noted in oranges and lem
ons.
Apples were firm.

About Stoves.

II you use stoves in the house and
they will not be in use this summer.
do not try to clean them with stove
polish, but give them n good coating
of black varnish. 1t is much nicer
than polish and will look well all sum.
mer. BY fall. when fires are needed,
the varnish will be so hard and dry
that no unpleasant odor will be notice
able when the fires are started The
sides of the kitchen stove or range
can be treated in the same manner
but the top must be polished with
stove polish.
