The clerical element, which has Of

CORNER IN wheat
ESCAPES A SQUEEZE:

CHICAGO.-Theg great wheat battle
of July, 1910, closed with Thomas Fl.
Waterman, the new king of the pit,
in the saddle. The corner" closed
without any squeezing of the shorts,
which is most unprecedented way
for a well-regulated corner to act, es-
pecially when a new monarch is as
suming control.
The main reason for the falling of
the corner and the escape OF many
shorts from the promised squeezing
is that the Chicago board of trade
permitted Waterman and his asso-
ciates to learn that no squeezing of
the shorts would be tolerated and that
the creation of an artificially high
price on the closing day of the option
would result in some one being sus-
pended from membership.

There are many materials. opera

Principal among such operations is the
manufacture of textiles. perhaps the
largest single industry carried on in
factories. In the favored climate of
the Manchester and Bolton districts of
England the natural climate affords
working conditions equaled i'll Amer
lea only on occasional days in certain
localities.
Even in England. however. there are
many days in which the atmosphere
is too dry for the best work. Since
textile fibers are increased in strength
and elasticity by high humidity and
moderately high temperature. break
ages are less frequent under proper
conditions. and the output is Increased
But even before the fiber reaches the
manufacturing plant atmospheric hu-
midity plays an important part.
Cotton loses weight as it dries out; !;
but. more than that. the tibers bristle
and appear shorter and of lower grade
than when slightly moistened. Leath-
er, feathers and many other porous
substances lose Il considerable percent
