CORN AND LARD TO RISE, TOO
DEALER PREDICTS AN ALMOST
PROHIBITIVE FIGURE. LIV-
ING PRICES TO SOAR.

Living prices will reach an unprec-
edented scale before the new crops
are ready for the market, according
to the statement to the Savannah
Morning News by a wholesale man
who keeps closely in touch with the
grain centers of the country.
Without doubt -four will 90 to
$40 a barrel of 1872 pounds, which
is even now sold at $780," he is
quoted as saying: 1T is a strange
fact that as the supply decreases
there is a much greater demand.
Despite all statements to the con-
tfary Wholesale men know that the
present supply of wheat will not
meet the demand. 1t will not hold
/ out until the new crop comes in.
Even now wheat is hard to be OBJ
tanned at some points, and you can
take 1t from me that the steady daily
increase in the price of flour will
soon place it at $40 a barrel.
Corn products, too, are begin
ming to take rise in price. This
is especially true of grits, and I ex-
| pect price Of So a sack of 96
pounds in the near future North
ern people are just finding out what
southerners have known for these
many years-that many of the uuaIi-
ties most sought for in foods are
found in grits, and the demand for
this product in the north is becoming
enormous. On the other hand south
erners are learning from their win
ter visitors from the north to eat
the many breakfast foods made from
corn, and we are selling large
amounts Of these foods.
Another thing which will helm to
increase the price of corn is prohi-
bltion. Wherever prohibition laws
are operative there will you find the
blind tigers. And in making this in
Terror whisky corn is used When the
demand for corn is increased through
these various methods you will find
mat the present crop will not suffice.
For grlst you must have corn which
is old and dried, so that the new
crop will not be available for their
production for some time.
And in speaking of high prices
you might state that lard also will
increase in price. Animal lard is
rapidly loosing favor, particularly in
the south. 1t is unclean and not
nearly IS healthful as the vegetable
product. Lard made from the cot
ton seed oil is bound to be much
cleaner than that from pork can pos
slbly be. But at present the greater
demand for the vegetable lard has
created a scarcity of cotton seed
products, and this, of course, will
cause q rise in price,

DAYLIGHT THOUGH NIGHT.
Indiana Man Has Plan to Double
Length of Days.

A Petersburg, Ind, dispatch to
the Washington Post says: After
ten years of persistent effort David
R. Nicely of this city has perfected
an arrangement by which he believes
the day can be made "a hours long,
and he has applied for patents. He
has made convex and cOncave lenses
of enormous sizes, which he will
place on towers, 1000 feet high, L.
600 miles apart, and with these he
expects to supply daylight many
hours after night has fallen.
To keep the lenses at a proper
angle a clockwork apparatus is to
be provided, and with the lenses so
focused as to let the light in con-
centrated rays pass from one to the
other, he expects to give daylight all
the time.

men entered the place and asked for

and that it is very serious. indeed
Fruit is being delivered at the as
sociation plants at various points
each day, although the management
is endeavoring 10 temporarily stop all
deliveries and get the growers to
keep the fruit in their fruit houses
or orchards.

Mr.. Moore that il is doing all in its
power to rush cars to the western
slope in large numbers, and that the
roads are leaving nothing undone TO-
ward relieving the situation
Manager Moore hopes to have plen-
ty of cars within day or two.
At least 100 car loads of apples are
being held here that should have

not the case. Delta is faring as well
as Grand Junction.
Yesterday a big meeting was held
in Delta by the fruit growers and
business men. The car shortage was
the subject up for discussion, and
there was much indignation ex-
pressed over the fact that, right in
the heart of the apple shipping sea-

liver cars sufficient to handle the
bulk of the crop.

attempted to get into the house. the
girl was awakened and becoming

bors, the men heard her and fled. A
neighbor went to the girls assistance
and she went to the neighbor's house
and spent the night. 1t is said that
