CHICAGO. July lit was day of evening
up in wheat. There were no deliveries In July
this morning. This the result OF cash
wheat premiums and greatly reduced stocks
The market had a firm opening, and the early
ADVANCE brought out liberal offerings from
number of leading interests. As the market
began to weaken many of the local holders
began to take profits and even up in anticipa-
tion Of the holidays. Leaders who have been
active in supporting the market were in
clined to let prices drop back, probably m
the interest of cash and export business. LiY-
erpool was irregular. Later advices from Ar
gentine say wheat acreage is reduced by long
drouth B. w. Snow gave out July report
on the winter crop raising the condition for
most winter wheat states, except on the IA
clflc coast, where there was a decline of
from three to five points during June. He
fixes 375 900, 900 bushels the probable winter
crop. Unless the country shows a disposition
to sell the new crop following the holidays,
wo are inclined to believe that strength will
return in this market very quickly.
CORN-There was a final squirt of covering
on the part of local shorts the first hour today.
Following this covering of several million BUSH
els for these months the past three days there
was a natural let down in the support, and
prices went back abruptly in sympathy with
the break in wheat Shipping sales were

are valuable according to the
amount of power they generate,
how strong and the quality of the
works; not on account of the
CLAIMS made by anyone, but
on account of the PROOF ADJ
VANCED by the manufacturers
PROVING that the belt is the
very strongest and the most per-
feet working appliance of its kind.
That's why Brantverne' electric
belts are worth more than a
dozen times the prices charged
for them, and as Brantverne sells
the largest number of belts and
MANUFACTURES them, he
can undersell every one and give
better quality for less money than
others can afford to sell for. Why
pay big price for an inferior ap-
pliance when Brantverne sells
powerful 6-cell dry battery belt
with rheostat regulator, electric
suspensory (the best) and elegant
satin finished case, ALL FOR S.,
complete, just as if you paid some
dealer from $40 to 500 for it.
Wise men investigate; they don't
take another mans word for it,
and that's what we want you to
do, investigate. We show the
goods and prove them the best
by convincing tests and proofs.
Remember this SIS belt is special
for a short time only and tests
several times as strong as any
other sold at double or ten times
the price. Brantverrie is a GENT
inc manufacturer and can show
you his factory; that proves it.
Who else can? Brantverne' high
grade dry cells cannot be bought
anywhere else and limitations of
them CANNOT test half the
power nor last one-tenth as long.
High grade appliances at BOT
TOM prices. Cut out this ad.
and bring or send it and get our
elegant powerful, complete, fine
ly finished belt for SIS. Call or
write for free book and big cata-
logue lists. Be sure and bring

GREAT CORN CROP OF 1909.

In n preliminary report giving the
indicated production of corn this year
In the United states, the department
Of agriculture estimates the total az
., 767. $4,000 bushels. This aggregate
yield exceeds that OF 1908 by more
than oS million bushels and fairly
rivals the largest corn crop on record,
which was harvested in 1906, and was
2,927, 900, 900. Before 1906, the
largest crop ever raised was that OF
1905, with a total of 2,707. 993. 900
bushels, or about 60 million bushels
less than the production now estima-
ted for 1903.
Even these gratifying figures seem
poworless to emphasize adequately the
importance of the corn harvest as n
potent factor OF our national prosper
ity. The market value OF the total
production this year at the current
price OF orn aggregates more than
| 500 million dollars. This grand re-
suit ought to give a powerful stimulus
to the cultivation OF the principal
cereal crops and all agricultural in
dustries, which have not kept pace
with the rapidly increasing demand
OF the world for foodstuffs.

ANOTHER PLANET LOCATED.

Camille Flamarion announces In a
dispatch from Paris that he has To-
Gated" the planet beyond the orbit Of
Neptune. whose existence has lonS
been suspected"
In 1870 his calculations placed the
orbit OF this unknown world about
five billions Of miles distant from the
sun. Last year Professor Pickerlng's
studies indicated that its distance APP
proximated more than four and a
half billion miles. giving 1t a revolu-
ton round the u in 3Ts years.
Astronomers have long been eager
to discover the existence of another
member of the solar system beyond
the outermost known planet, the
mean distance Of which from the
Is IS billion of miles. As Neptune Is
so very remote, telescopes OF high
magnlfying power are necessary
to show its disk. 1t Aeems doubtful
whether any telescope now constru u
ed would show the disk OF q planet rs
distant as that indicated by NJ. Flam-
marion's calculations.

PARIS THEATER PRICES.

When the theaters of Paris reopen
toward the end of the month the play
going public will discover that a small
revolution has beer carried through
quietly during the summer, at the
spectators expense, Of course, All
places of entertainment in Paris are
taxed 10 per cent on their gross re-
ceipts, for the benefit of the Assist
ance P%ublique, the body which admin
listers and finances nearly all aims
houses and hospitals in the metropolis.
Theater managers have decided thai
"the tax, which hitherto came out of
their pockets, shall now be paid by
the public" This, of course. is merely
a roundabout way of announcing that
they have agreed to raise their prices
10 per cent, which Is What they will
do.
Henceforth a 10-franc seat will cost
II francs. but It will still be called a
10-franc seat. notice being given in
forming the purchaser that the extra
franc is the Assistance Publique tax.
Managers might have taken OFF the tax
instead of adding 1t to the price of the
seat, and calling 1t a 10-franc one in
round figures. plus the impost of n
franc, but that idea never occurred
to them.
But there is a rumor that the AS
sistance Publique is keeping a card up
its sleeve, which will trump the mana
gers best suit, The law empowers
on the gross receipts of places of en-
that body to levy a tax of ten per cent
upon the gross receipts of places of
entertainment. Now. if the price of
n 10 franc seat be raised to IL francs,
the gross receipts for that set will be
not 10 francs. but II francs. The AS
sistance Publique has nothing to do
with the reasons why an extra franc IS
charged, Its only concern is to levy
it's tax. and it will accordingly take
10 per cen not of 10 francs. but OF II
francs, that is to sayy. it will exact a
penny more and If managers continue
raising their prices it will continue to
demand more money. the public con-
tiuing to pay the piper.-Paris Cores
