principally to better prospects in Ar

mad been improved by rains In the

tic situation was that receipts at pri-

The Weeks Corn Market.
During the week the corn market
was dun. and at times there was a
weak tendency. which was attributed
to continued favorable YEA ther West
for husking and marketing the crop.
There has been a moderate increase in
the receipts at primary points. Greater
frmness and a slight advance late in
the week were based on advices from
the West OF active buying by prominent
interests. largely on the assumption
that corn prices were down to rea-
sonably safe basis. Receipts of corn
are not likely TO be materially larger,
as great many farmers are refusing
to accept current bids having found 1t
more profitable to feed freely to hogs
and cattle. The late buoyancy in the
market was attributed to a materially
larger export business In new corn for
forward shipments. Old corn for early
delivery has been decidedly dull, owing
to the meagre supply and high views
of holders

His theme was Good Fellowship. As a

"On several occasions have had the
pleasure of visiting with Col. A. G.

A GOOD GAME OF BALL

at DodgeviIle Last Friday Even
ing, Feb. 4.
The second semesters work is well
under way Contest work is beginning
to interest a large number of pupils.
Misses Mildred and Alice Reese of
Dodgeville spent the day with us last
Tuesday.
Although Dodgeville had the good
fortune to win victory over our boys
Friday evening, they know that we
played good game, and we know that
we are four points ahead on the two
games.
It is next to impossible to secure a
hall of regular size and it is very diff
cult to play in one hall after practicing
in another.
Our boys were at great disadvan
tage in Dodgeville because while their
hall was the best they could secure,
and was perhaps, in some respects,
better than ours, it was far from reg
ulation hall. The floor was that of a
dance hall and not that of gymnasium.
In every respect except being beaten
our people claim that Dodgeville treated
them royalty.
Too bad we cannot have large high
room to practice in.
The game was played as follows:
