These large contributions made to the

not voluntary contributions, but are
levied like taxes, and are generally
made with the understanding, ex-

robbing the many for the benefft OF

HEALTH DEPARTMENT TALKS
More Suggestions as to a City
Beautiful.
GARDENS AND FLOWERS.

GAhDENS AND FLOWERS.
Last week we had a short talk on
the city beautiful and cleaning up
a sort of general city house and lot
cleaning.
Incidentally, in urging that We all
turn in and help make Chicago the
cleanest city of its size in the world,
we suggested the plan of putting out
small gardens in the back yards and
planting flowers in the front yards.
1t is this idea that We want to talk
about now.
The average city back yard should
give a garden spot at least so %
feet. This is pretty small, but for all
that, under. high cultivation, it is
amazing the amount of stun that
may be produced. A very small bed
will produce lettuce, radishes and
onions for a family of five persons;
and the labor required to properly
cultivate small garden can be done
at odd hours without interfering
with ones regular employment
Planting a garden or flowers in the
back yard is putting it to good use
II is much better than using it as a
dumping place for rubbish and refuse
of all kinds. If you are not inclined
to plant the garden, then by all
means SOW grass seed and plant
flowers in the sunny places in both
the front and back yards. The cost
is triaing, the work is light, pleasant
and healthful, and the results, in
beauty and comfort of surroundings,
will pay big for the time and labor
expended.
Another suggestion, and one worth
considerating: Do not let your neigh
Dor get ahead of you. Don't wait IN
til he starts to clean up before you get
busy. The chances are that if the
family next door see you at work
with rake and broom they will run a
race with you to see whose lot is
cleaned first. The point is, the man
who takes a pride in keeping his
premises neat and tidy inspires the
same sort of feeling in his neighbors.
And so personal pride of his kind
grows and spreads until it becomes a
community pride. The result is more,
better kept homes, more attractive
neighborhoodS, and better health con-
ditions wherever a spirit of pride in
home surroundings is dominant
So as we said last week, let's all
get busy in a rousing campaign of
vigorous cleaning up. Now is the
time. Clean up the back yards, tidy
up the front yards, rake up the al
legs, get your grass and flower seeds
planted, and in another month the
change will be wonderful
This is a work that should appeal
to every one, young aud old Let the
children help. 1t viii do them good
by developing both their bodies and
their minds, besides teaching them
some useful lessons along the lines
Of good citizenship.
Then, finally, don't forget that
clearing mp community adds mate
rally to the fornt foot price Of all
the property in the locality.-'P."

ONE CENT ADVANCE
IN WHEAT MARKET
Reports of Storms In Argen-
tina Cause of Upturn
AMERICAN CROP is BIGGER
Prospective Decline in Receipts of
Corn Causes Rush of Buying and
Higher Prices-Oats Strong
and Provisions Weak.

Chicago, December 2S-Argentine adj
vices formed the basis of / cent ad-
vance in the price Of wheat here today.
The market closed strong at the top notch
Corn and oats also closed strong but
provisions were weak.
One Of the chief factors contributing to
the strength of the wheat market was
a cablegram from Argentina stating that
severe storms were doing considerable
damage to the wheat crop. Other adyices
from that country confirmed previous es-
Inmates of comparatively small amount
of wheat which will be available for ex-
port. These reports transformed weak
market to one of decided strength. AT
the opening prices were &c to 1443sc lower
compared with the previous close, the
weakness being due to a decline of Ad to
I'D at Liverpool A firmer tone developed
toward the end aof the first hour and
throughout the remainder of the day SEN
timent in the pit continued to be bullish.
A special report on the fall-sown crop
of wheat in this country made by a local
expert who was inclined to doubt the ac-
curacy of the government statistics
SnOWeu llldl TIE OlllC1dl llSuT6S DldCtQ Tie
total at 100000 acres more than was
claimed by this authority. This report
helped to strengthen the market. The
market closed strong with all deliveries
at the highest point of the day, May be-
ing at $1.07s and July at $3.50. Clear
ances of wheat and flour were equal to
Is, 900 bushels. The worlds visible sup
ply as shown by Bradstreets increased
r. 900 bushels. Primary receipts were 1885,
900 bushels. Minneapolis, Duluth and Chi
cago reported total receipts of $40 cars.
A prospective falling off in receipts
was the chief incentive to considerable
buying of corn by elevator interests and
shorts which resulted in strong mar
ket during the last half of the day The
expectation of a decreased movement was
based mainly on an official forecast of
unsettled weather for the corn belt. Slight
weakness was manifested early in the day
owing to lower cables and the weakness
of wheat. The market closed strong at
the highest point with prices up 1ac to
5s0%c final quotations on May being at
611a@615sc and on July at 61&c. Local re-
ceipts, AS cars, seven contract grade.
The advance in wheat and corn i'm
parted moderate firmness to the oats mar
ket, but the volume of trade was extreme
ly small. The bulk of the business was
in the May delivery. The market closed
firm at the top, with prices up 1s@Ac to
&c, compared with the previous close,
final quotations on May being at 51Bc
and ON July 46%c Local receipts 1877
cars
Increased receipts of live hogs here
and at other western packing centers in
duced moderate realizing in provisions by
local longs which caused weak market
throughout the entire day. Prices at the
close were off 2h@10c.

DOWNWARD TURN
IN STOCK MARKET
Lively Advance of Monday Is
Partly Lost In Days Trading
NEARLY ALL STOCKS LOSE
Copper lndustrials Are Unresponsive
to Trade Reports and Railroad
Deals Continue To Play
Part in Speculation.
NEARLY ALL STOCKS LOSE

New York. December 29.-The rate at
which prices started up with the
resumption of dealings in stocks after the
Christmas holiday was not maintained on
the second day of operations. Just what
sentiment of opinion may have prompted
the moderating of the movement is not
clear, but substantial check was en-
countered in the weight of the offerings
to sell at the higher prices, for the
level at the outset today was considerably
higher At the end of the day point
losses were numerous. There was some
PERCEPTION of an incongruity between the
matter of the scramble for stocks at
rapidly rising prices, such as occurred
yesterday and the investment demand
which the improvement is supposed to
represent The genuine investment buy
ing is recognizable by it's sober methods
and its more careful scrutiny of pre-
vailing price levels with relation to div
idend rates with adjustment in interest
returns to conform to existing conditions
in the money market The railroad deal
continued to play part in the speculation
and to touch some new stocks with Its
animating influence.
The copper industrials showed them
selves unresponsive to trade reports OF
the same hopeful character which proved
efficacious in raising their prices yester-
day Copper metal was marked up again
at the New York metal exchange and
10 the London market and further re-
ports were heard of an active movement
among consumers to take refined copper,
but thar group sagged to lower prices not
withstanding this stimulant. The amount
of public agitation aroused against
proposed advance in freight rates Janu-
airy / came into larger consideration to-
day. owing to reports of the holdings of
mass meetings in California to protest
against the intended advances on behalf
of shippers.
In the comparisons of reports of rail-
road earnings with last year from this
time EDWARDS, it is pointed out that con-
d;tions at this time last year and in the
period following were the most unfavor-
able for the railroads which have ex-
listed for many years past. The Italian
earthquake calamity brought no direct
pressure on the market. but the senti-
mental effect of such great disasters
is depressing to property values.

FAIRLY STEADY
Trading Is Quiet and FIuctua-

BULL SUPPORT IS ABSENT
General Business Is Restricted by APP
proach of New Year Holidays but
Demand Is Fair and Prices
Are Well Held Up.

New York, December 29.-Whitle
trading was quiet and fluctuations
were irregular within a narrow range,
the cotton market found support on
soft spots today and closed steady
net points higher to 3 points low
er. Sales estimated at 10000 bales.
The market opened steady at a de-
cline for 4 points to an advance of
l point, generally about points low
er in response to slightly disappoint-
ing cables, scattering liquidation and
the absence of bull support. General
business seemed to be restricted by
the approaching three-day adjourn
ment and uncertainty regarding the eX
tent and effect of January notices next
Thursday, but there was a fair de-
mand at the initial figures and active
months soon rallied to about, or a
point or two over, the closing figures
of last night.
A squirt of realizing sent prices off
to net loss of to points short
ly after midday, following which the
market steadied again in the late trad
ing on reports of steadier southern
markets and covering by January
shorts, while there seemed to be a
demand for October from Wall street
sources.
Receipts at the ports today, 1904
bales against 76,25S last week and
1,005 last year. For the week, 340,-
600 bales against $685. last week and
