Nothing about metropolitan news

worlds markets. AS might be ex-
pected. The Chicago Record-Herald
covers this field in the same satisfac-
tory manner that is characteristics of
the papers entire news service. 1t
tells its readers every day what
consols are worth in London, what
money and stock are worth in New
York, what wheat and other grains
are worth in Chicago, Kansas City,
Minneapolis and other markets and
presents in addition accurate informa-
ton on the events and conditions that
determine these values.
The Record-Herald is the only
morning paper in Chicago having it's
own special correspondent to cover
the New York stock market. George
S. Beachel's letters report the daily
movements of the New York stock aud
and money markets in way that
shows the writer's close association
with the men who rule in those affairs
in Wall street. Equal attention is
devoted to the Chicago stock and
financial markets and to the daily
movements of price on the Board of
Trade. The "Speculative Gossip

shows a bit of the real "inside" his

From Linn County, Missouri.

f. w. Dave, writing from Linneus,
Mo-, under date of Oct. s, among
other things says: 1--WE are pegging
away at about the usual gate. Our
crops are better than last year except
fruit, which is a total failnre. The
dairy industry is gaining here. The
separator and silo are quite in evil
dence; and our market town, Brook
field, has advanced very rapidly in
the past five years. The Brown Shoe
Co. of St. Louis, are erecting a very
large brick plant there also, and
seveal coal mines. Soft coal retails
at 1926 per ton or $3.50 at the mine.
So the coal famine does not worry
Linn county any. The good old Miss
ouri mule sells at from $50 to 1925 at
weaving time-about 500 average
making it king Of all live stock on the
farm, considering its utility is work
only. They are punched and fattened
for market just as are steers, from
self-feeders or troughs full at all
times.D
