The Markets
Grain Opinions.

Bartlett, Frazier & Co: The class
of buying was of good character and
we are of the opinion that the wheat
market has seen bottom. We advise
buying on all recessions. We simply
repeat what we have said before, that
we do not think there have been suffi-
Client damage to the growing crop to
warrant present prices for corn, and
with good general rains look for a
lower market
Finley Darrell & Co.: While we
realize that present corn prices dis
coSnt considerable damage, we con-
tinue to feel that advantage should be
taken of just such breaks as we ex-
perienced yesterday, as without early
rains in the southwest increased dam
age will necessarily develop.
Logan & Bryan: Unless there is a
return of extreme temperatures, the
bull market in corn probably is at an
end for the present.
S. B. Chaplin & Co.: We are still
of the opinion that ultimately much
higher prices will prevail and that
advantage should be taken of all drives
like that of the last few days to buy
wheat.
Shearson Hammill: The wheat sit
uation is decidedly mixed. Large spec
ulative interests are on market thac

pared with those paid in the United
States. 1t Is difficult to realize how peo-
pie can live aid educate their families
on the income they receive.
Ordinary compositors are paid an aver
age Of $685. a week for the first ten
years; 1916 week for the next ten
years, and 81 AZ is the maximum. Lithog-
raphers. color printers. engravers. cop
per printers, pressmen and engineers re-
ceive a little more.
A man who gets SO a week considers
himself well paid. The average wages OF
foremen Of printing offices are 1910 a
week.
The average wage Of women helpers.
binders and other employees is $40 a
week Tho average for unskilled wom-
ems labor Is $500 per week. The mini
mum paid women and girls is 81. 70 a
week.
Bookkeepers. accountants, clerks and
other employees in the office Of the print
ing and publication houses receive an
average wage of $500 a week.
The scale Of wages Is regulated by
agreement between the officials of the
several unions and committee from the

1t has advanced few cents annually
for several years because OF the increased
cost of living and the increased prosper
