the wheat belt, and the gain in price
soon faded away.
Advices Generally Optimistic.
Advices from the southwest were
more g.owing than for long time.
harvesting being carried on rapidly
and wheat in the upper regions ma
turing under the most favorable con-
lditions. Temperatures in the north
west have been high during the week
and "aoor" agriculturists expressed
the belief that the hot weather In
that section would have a bad affect
on the growing spring wheat. Never
theless, the mass of advices from
spring wheat territory were optlmls-
tic. far oyershadowing the sprinkiing
complaints from North Dakota and
the western part of Minnesota.
II is expected that a continuance
OF fine weather will witness a marked
Improvement in the movement OF
winter wheat to market. although re-
ceiyers still say that farmers show
little disposition to accept bids sent
out to them from this market. South
western millers are far outbidding
Chicagoans for the better grades of
new wheat.
A Toronto wheat authority esti-
mated that the Dominion's entire
yield OF wheat would reach the COM
paratively enormous total OF no.

exportable surplus OF about 125,0O0,-
900 bushels. However. this caleula-
tion had no effect on the local mar
ket and bolstering in prices came
despite the Canadian news.
Kansas Wheat Moving.
Advices from Kansas indicated
that new wheat was moving to mar
-ket in all parts of the state. Similar
reports came from western Tonnes
see. There was fairly good volume
OF new wheat running to st. Louis
and Kansas City Friday. these mar
kets receiving $4,000 bushels as
against $4,000 year ago. The grad
ing was excellent, Cash houses here
reported a slight increase in sales
to this market, but other centers
we're bidding relatively higher prices.
Nevertheless, they are counting on
fairly free offerings in Chicago terri
tory during the next week or ten
days. The largest hedging sales
made in the pit here were against
purchases of cash wheat In Kansas
and Oklahoma.
Prices last week gained 2 cents
for July. ~ cents for September and
/ X cents for December.
Corn Takes n Jump.
Offerings of corn have been so
light that shorts in the new crop
months have become badly scared
and as result September corn Fri
day sold at the highest figure of the
crop year-74h cents. Corn started
its glddy flight Thursday. after the
bulls had dumped lot of their long
stun and sent the price downward on
the day before. The nearby deliy-

grew very rapidly last week. since
rain fell quite generally over the cot
ton region. Conditions are a trife
more irregular than the previous
week, however, because the rainfall
was excessive at points in North
Carolina. South Carolina. Louisiana
and Texas. The most important COM
South Central Texas. where rains
were often continuous. causing some
shedding of bolls by the cotton pant
and an appreciate increase in the
number of boil weevils.
In Alabama and the states border
ing on the Mississippi river the crop
is in very fine condition. The rain
fall was altogether beneficial. and
the outlook is nearly all that it can
be. The crop is in fine cultivation
and the plants are large and well
grown for the season and fruiting
heavily.
Throughout the whole belt. except
in localities merely, the crop has
been put In thorough cultivation and
the question of acreage is therefore
fully determined. The crop advanced
as a whole during the week, the set
backs being due largely to excessive
rainfall.
The crop is being rapidly "laid by"
as the plant has now often attained
size that will not permit of further
cultivation.

HOBORS
CRIPPLED AND OTHERWISE
BEAT VI Up THE TRACK.
Whole Camp of Sleepers Flushed by
Patrolman Casper Jones Near
Station.

Patrolmen Casper Jones flushed a
coyey of sleeping hoboes in the weeds
near the Union station this morning
and arousing the hoboes from their
slumbers gave them orders to move
on. which was complied with in dou-
Bile quick time. There were several
peglegs and otherwise dishgured char
acters in the crowd, but all showed
their ability to preambulate success
fully by beating II up the railroad
toward Gilbertsville or some other
more congenial locality. where cops
are not so watchful as at Paducah.

new high point was established. Ar

there is nov little more than 1.OO0.-

In sight, for with Kansas City and
st. Louis both paying higher prices
than Chicago. the movement. which
is extremely small, is in the direc-
ton OF those markets rather than to
this. The bullish feeling generated
by the strength of the nearby deliv-
cries included the deferred months

the crop situation. judging from the
general run of country reports, is bet

largely in sympathy with corn. There
were a good many pessimistic crop
reports during the first part OF the
week. but recent rains are said to
have helped the growing crop very
materially. The market is in an over
sold condition, and shorts are easily
scared. prices responding readily to
any buying. Net gains In prices for
the week were: July u cent, Sep
TENDER X cent and December y
cent.
Noteworthy advances were made
in provisions. Quite demand poured
in from out-of-town sources and there
was more or less buying by packing
interests. A compilation of stocks at
the five principal western packing
points showed decrease of 5,907,-
294 pounds of cut meats during the
month OF June, compared with an in
crease Of 33,7SS.1SS pounds during
June last year and 25,796.360 pounds

rout by this report and there was a
wild scramble to recover.

NussouIA COUNTY SOCIALISTS
ATTENTION

While there is large socialist senti-
ment in Missoula county our organiEa-
tion is very weak and an effort should
be made to strengthen 1t as soon as
possible, If we are to make any kind Of
showing in the fall campaign.
There is enough work TO be done to
keep one organizer in Missoula county
for three months and If this could be
done the Socialist party would soon as
sumo a militant form.
An effort is going to be made to
put an organizer into Missoula county
for a few weeks at least. In order to
sustain an organizer in the field, funds
are necessary and there are enough
socialists in Missoula county who, by
donating from 25 cents TO $1.o0 each
month, can raise the amount necessary.
Therefore we request all socialists
living in Missoula county who are
anxious to have an organizer working
for one month in the county to send
contributions to help defrsy organ
iDer's expenses to Fred chuning, Box
500, Missoula, Montana, and If dona-
tions cannot be made at once, write
Comrade Cumming how much you will
donate and when payments Of dona-
tions will be made.
A list Of donations will appear each
week in the Montana News.
