 Throughout the session an almost in

 While this decline was In progress the engineers of the recent upward movement were estimated to have part ed with 7jooo bales and their selling was even faster and more furious dur Ing the afternoon bringing the total amount disposed of by them during the day 200.000 bales. more or less, accord ling to the best estimates. About the only support the market received came 1 from tho covering of short contracts, but this influence caused only weak rallies in price.

STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Reactionary Movement Gains Fresh
 Momentum.

New York. Aug. 20.-The reaction ary tendency in the stock market which became so pronounced in yes terdays late operations gathered fresh to-day resulting in tenn porary losses in a number of the ac- tive issues. No very definite news ac- companied the downward movement, aside from rumors of the probable dis nssal of four thousand employees of the Pennsylvana system on or be- fore September There was further acute weakness in New York Central both here and abroad. Although opinion prevails in London that reduce ton of the coming dividend will be averted. To offset these adverse fac tors. however, advices from Pittsburg reported a marked increase In the ton mage handled by the railroads of that district; also preparations by the steel companies for large equipment orders. The news from the western and south western agricultural sections was op- timistic in the extreme rains of the past two weeks having apparently given great relief to the hitherto dry conditions, Little significance at tached to the business on the ex- change, which was restricted in vol rme until the final hour, when recov- cries from the carly recession Werc made under the lead of the Hartman issues. In fact the greater part of the days carly losses gave place to net gains. The sensational decline in cotton was hardly a market influence. although the wild selling of that com modity was in some quarters regarded as 8 bear argument, The failure of the tIackawanna officials to reach any decision with the interstate commerce commission regarding the eompanN's troubles with the switchmen was ut terly ignored. The closing was strong under the lead of Southern Pacific
 which reached its high record price on this movement. Concurrent strength was shown by Union Pacific anu Attul0ph, NHlle lNtW lolh 'th- tral gained full point on the day. | London's attitude of loofness tow ards our securities market, though some of to days buying of Southern

Some brokers arc advised -and are acting on the advice--to put people into Erie who can afford to stand bS 1t. Expressed another way, they arc tipped from good sources that Erie is a purchase for the pull. They are told to pay no attention to calculations showing how heavily the property IS capitalized, or to anything but dc- velopments which must arise out of the latest Hartman moves with re- gard 10 Erie, and to the Gould prop critics which may he allied with Erie, The arguments that Erie has big burden to carry were uesd years ago in the cases of Atchison, Reading, Southern Pacific and other roads, whose stocks arc now on q divideni- paying basis. Erie in fact, is the only low priced railroad stock on the list whose future possibilities are anything like those that have been worked out by roads now among tho most successful money makers

ELEVA1|NG and IMPROVING
The BREAD OF THE nation

on the same area, and from the same
quantity of seed, and involving exact.
ly the SAME labor, up to the actual
harvesting of the grain, durum wheat
will yield % to 100 percent more
bushels per acre and the wheat run
to 10 percent heavier than ordinary
wheats.
In Dakota, in 19O6-07, on virgin
prairie soil, .Kubanka, durum, wheat
yielded 81 bushels per acre, the wheat
running go lbs. per bushel. Five soft
err wheats grown adjacent to the dur
um wheat, yielded on an average 16
bushels per acre, weighing 81 lbs to
the bushel
Again the gluten, the lean of the
meat" value in wheat, in durum wheat
is far in excess of the softer wheats.
1t is this presence of gluten in wheat
en- bread that gives it value as mus.
cle builder. Therefore the use of dur.
UNI flour in our daily bread means
an increase in its nutritive value from
25 percent upwards. The increase in
the food value of the nations bread
25 percent, If no more, is PROPOSE
ton not to be measured in dollars
and cents.
Now, how can this be brought
about? OPPOSITION to durum wheat
has cropped up from the beginning,
since its introduction by the agricul-
tural bureau in 1901, when 100000
bushels were harvested and fed by
the disheartened farmers principally
to the hogs, because elevator men and
millers refused to touch it. The crop
in 1907 is said to have been 40 to SO
million bushels, and yet question if
you can buy either a rs lib. sack of
patent durum -four, so branded, or a
loaf of bakers bread from patent
flour, and so labelled, from one end
OF the country to the other To go
into details and give reasons would
take more time than you might feel
willing to give in reading this COM
munication. The agricultural bureau,
in practical way, thoroughly demon
strated the superiority of durum bread
over other breads. Refer to Agricul-
tural Bulletin No. 70 for this inform
alton. The farmers who grow durum
wheat are an aggrieved class: not
only must they take 10 to 20 cents
per bushel less than inferior wheat
are sold at but they claim that last
year 20 millions Of bushels of durum
wheat were ground by the millers and
blended with weaker fours, and Civ
ing strength to the weaker product,
elevated it into first place. All these
things discourage the farmer who
grows durum wheat.
Now where is the remedy2 How
can the public be educated UP to the
value and superiority of durum bread
and the farmers encouraged to plant
heavier durum crops, and through
that Irresistible lever, arbitrary de-

MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
is IMPORTANT MEETING

The Missouri River Improvement
congress which will be held at Bis
marck commencing the twelfth Of
this month, while of Importance to
the Slope generally, is of vital i'm
portance to the city of Bismarck in
particular, and our public men who
have called the meeting are to be
commended for their timely action.
Commissioner of Agriculture and
Labor w. G. Gilbreath, who has call
the congress to meet at the Capital
City, has reason to be hopeful for
the success of this all important
meeting. Governor Burke is enthus-
iastically supporting Mr.. Gilbreath
in organizing this congress and firm
ly believes the results will be highly
beneficial to Bismarck and the sur
rounding country.
It is believed that the improvement
of the Missouri river will make perm
anent navigation possible and thus
furnish a cheaper means Of trans
portation for carrying out the pro
ducts of the western part of the
state and bringing into this portion
the manufactured article in return.
A great portion of this section is
but partially developed but the max
ing of the Missouri navigable
stream means much for this COM
mercial center. If the results hop
ed for can be achieved it means a
rapid substantial growth for Bis
marck and the surrounding coun-
try as well.
Such men as Governor Burke and
Commissioner Gi1breath are earnest
and sincere in their efforts to assist
with the development of this section
by improving our natural waterways;
they should be encouraged and aid
ed generally in the work they have
commenced by local citizens in this
effort to expand the commercial chan
nels of the Capital City and it is to
be hoped that the plans developed
by this congress are followed by local
people till the actual results sought
for are received.
