close was strong. May wheat opened tsc
to 1kc higher at 94bc to 94isc; sold be-
tween 941sc and 959sc and closed at 94% c.
hc higher.
Corn was firm at the opening, partly in
symImthy with wheat and also because OF
small local receipts and unsettled weather
in the corn belt. Later prices eased on
somewhat on increased offerings of cash
corn and the expectation of Increased de-
liveries within few days the close was
steady. May closed unchanged at 6OAc.
Distant deliveries of oats were easy to-
day while the May option showed eonsid-
cradle strength. The market was largely
Influenced by wheat and corn. but the ex-

After two days vacation the produce ex-
change met 20 find eggs SO weak that they
declined 1c on the opening. selling down to 22c
for local fresh candled ranch. Case count
dropped proportionately. 1t is stated that
much of the grade known as local candled
ranch is composed of northern eggs and there
Is a demand the part of some dealers for
a separation of the grades. There is no sug-
gestion that at this time of the year the north
ern eggs are not as good as the local, but
some think the separation will prevent confus-
ION The exchange may be asked to consider
the question.
The butter market was firm at the price fixed
last week and shows no signs OF weakening
on the contrary, the increased receipts since
the decline took place justifies short rally
at least, to a high quotation.
Other exchange commodities were unchanged
and the offerings normal
Green vegetables were abundant but not
enough to endanger prices. although cauli-
flower and tomatoes (Mexican) showed weak
ness. The double holiday lent strength TO the
We getabe market much as anything else
The movement surprisingly meager.
Poultry and fish continue fairly firm, exA
cept for fryers and small fish, which are
scarce and vary at fancy prices.

 The suicide of Philip Wight, reported in The Star of Decem OCT 4, has caused the most pro found sorrow in the entire com muuity and the cause that led to the rash act is still a matter of general discussion. Deceased was g years of age, and during his residence here of two years had formed a large circle of friends. He had kind and jov- ial disposition and his friends and acquaintances were always made welcome at his bachelor home, where he kept everything as neat and cazy as any housewife iu the com munity could have kept {. He had improved the Stockton farm and especially the residence, until it was one of the handsom- est country homes in this part Of the country. The place was paid tor, was we'll stocked in every respect and as there IS about 45 acres in young orchard the owner could make it very valua ble in few years.
 The remains were shipped to Winterset, Iowa, Saturday after noon for burial and was accom- panied by his aunt, Mrs. $. C. Wight, her son and daughter and Elmer Winkley, cousin.
