AND PRODUCE MARKET
All Lines Are Decidedly Weak and
Heavy Selling Continues.
RECEIPTS ARE SURE TO GROW
Moderation of weather Enabling the
Railroads TO Clear the COnRes-
ton Of Traffic Along
Their Lines.
OMAHA. Jan. Il. 1910.

OMAHA, Jan. II, 1910.
All the grain markets were decidedly
weak and the heavy selling that started
last week continued today. Receipts at
primary markets are bound to be heavy
now that the weather has softened and
railroads will be able to clear the accumu-
iation OF grain that has been slde-tracked
during the last three weeks. It Is the gen
eral sentiment among traders that a down
market has started.
Holders OF long wheat were heavy SELL
ers again today and the demand from mill
ers was too light to hold prices up. Lower
cables and a lack OF foreign demand were
features the bears worked on for lowering
x heavy run OF form receipts put the
market on the decline, values sliding lower
with the large offerings dragging heavily.
Cash corn was slow, selling at hqEc
lower.
Primary wheat receipts were 1,Os7, coo
bushels and shipments were 2SS OO0. bushels,
against receipts last year of T06,OOo bushels
and shipments OF 20i, 600 bushels.
Primary corn receipts were $4,000 bushels
and shipments were $4,000 bushels, agalnst
receipts last year of 944,0O0 bushels ana
shipments Of 1856, 900 bushels
Clearances were $4,000 bushels OF corn,

Prices ON Board of Trade.
CHICAGO, Jan. II-Grain and provisions
ruled lower here today, wheat being the
weakest Of the grains under the influence
of a. Iessened cash demand and larger re-
ceipts. In provisions the decline in pork
was the most striking.
Wheat prices fell off in the opening
trades and, with slight rallies, continued
the downward course nearly through the
session. The range was from No to IBc.
A London sta1sticlan's estimate placing
the worlds crop figures at S,593, O00,O 900
bushels also had a. bearish effect,

be retained in the food to be cooked.
The pocket or cylinder in which the
kettle containing the boiling food is
placed must be clean and sweet. It
is best that this cylinder be Of gran.
lite with cover to match, as such a one
retains heat we'll, will last long time
and is easily cleaned. The kettle in
which the food is boiled must be of
such a nature as to impart no flavor
to the food and should be Of material
that will not rust.
Food to be cooked in the fireless
cooker must be brought to the boiling
point and cooked until boiled thor
oughly all through. For example: Dat
meal, boil five minutes; cracked
wheat, boil fifteen minutes; a nine
pound ham, boil one-half hour after
reaching the boiling point. Rolled
oats should remain in the cooker ten
or twelve hours; cracked wheat, six
teen hours or more; the ham fifteen
to twenty hours. All food, when TAX
en- from the cooker, should be made
boiling hot before serving to insure
perfect wholesomeness.
Remember, when using the heat-re:
tent1on cooker, that all foods must be
actually boiling when placed in it:
and If the food requires more than ten
or twelve hours cooking, it should
be removed from the cooker, brought
to the boiling point and replaced in
the cooker.-Mary L. Bull, Division Of
Domestic Science, Minnesota Expert.

Fodder Corn Suggested by the Expert

Substitute.

Owing to the unprecedented drouth
the hay crop in Minnesota is probably
less than fifty per cent of a normal
crop. In places it is total failure,
and the farmers are not attempting
to cut their meadows. Resort must
be had to other roughage to feed stock
during the coming winter. The alarm

or even horses, is an excellent feed.
