Grain Opinions.

Bartlett, Patten & Co.: We would
wait for weak spots before buying,
though We believe that present prices
are warranted by the general situation.
We do not see any real reason to adj
wise purchases of corn, but as long as
sentiment seems so strong we would
advise caution in short selling.
Clement Curtis & Co.: Wheat trad
Ing has again been evened up and the
market again will be sensitive to the
northwestern situation. Failure of
farmers to sell corn after the rain has
forced buying by those who sold in
anticipation of such an event. The
plant is late everywhere and we look
'or strong price market until the new
crop begins to shape itself

Paraded Moorhead.

Today the management of the Ring
ling Bros great circus established
perfectly friendly relations with the
5000 men. women and children of
Moorhead. The latter city was in
cluded, for the first time in many
years, in the route of the parade of
any one of the large and first class
circuses like the Ringling's and 1t was
a great treat. especially for the chill
dren who were not slow to display
their delight and appreciation. Parad-
ing Of Moorhead meant considerable
reduction of the congestion along
Broadway in Fargo, and besides many
little tots saw the elephants, camels
and great spanking teams of horses
who would have stood poor chance to
have seen the novel sights out of the
city. The gorgeous cavalcade, headed
by monster band chariot drawn by
twenty-four horses which was a sight
in itself, entered the city via the south
