When this type of woman is In busi-

The good old days We're not so good to

always some women then who looked

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
Grain Letter.

Chicago, July 26.--Wheat: The mar

of the session when selling by local
longs and commission houses the lat
ter thought to be possibly for Wall
street account, caused running break
of l II cents per bushef. The weakness
In the stock market and hedging
against liberal country acceptances
were factors contributing to the de-
cline. Talk OF free deliveries on July
contracts also had weakening effect.
southwestern markets were relatively
tirmer than our own. Minneapolis re-
ports good percentage of their re-
ceipts winter wheat with a rather poor
demand. The break in wheat today
can be attributed to the easier tone of
the European markets which has left
our market without support from that
quarter, thereby making the move
ment of winter wheat the dominating
influence. We do not look for any
serious break in prices, although they
may go some lower on this turn.

GRAIN GROWERS
HOLD A Meeting
The QUESTION UNDER DISCUS
SION ALL MORNING WAS ADJ
VISIBILITY OF HAVING TERMI-
NAL ELEVATORS AND PROPER
REPRESENTATION.

The grain growers department O,
this district of the American Society
OF Equity is holding a convention ir
this city today, meeting at the Iowa
knights hall, and there is a large at
tendance. The principal matter
brought up in the session of this
morning which is presided over by A
v. swanson of Mint, president of the
society was whether it is advisable
at this time to build terminal eleva-
tors.
Ut the SAP, that is raised for this
purpose $4,000 worth of stock was
represented at the meeting. 1t was the
general sentiment of the meeting that
an organization be formed to provide
representation at the terminals and
along this idea speeches were made by
.. M. Anderson, secretary of. the as
ISOLATION, who outlined the objects of
the meeting and what had already
been done. He was followed by Field
en- G. Nelson of indianapolis, Ind, M.
+. Johnson Of Donnybrook, C. F.
Rakow of Wheatland o. G. Major of
nope F. H. Squire of Kenmare, who
is Tn" acting president of the North
Dakota State Union and many others
In tact almost every man in the halI
mad something to say about the cues
ton. No action was taken at the
morning meeting and another session
was held this afternoon.
AS there is $4,000 lacking of the
$4,000 which was to be raised for
permanent terminal elevators, it is
that any action will be
taken at this meeting to that end, but
there Is every reason to believe that
action will be taken to provide repre-
at the terminals.

FIRE THREATENED
several BLOCKS
JAMESTOWN HAD BAD BLAZE
YESTERDAY-DUFFYS GRAIN
BUILDING WAS DESTROYED

jamestown, NJ D., July ga fire,
which for a time seriously threatened
the business section of the town north
OF the railroad tracks, broke out In
the grain and feed building owned by
j. P. Duffy about noon Monday. The
building was well stored with hay
which made the blaze especially diff
cult to fight. The fire had gained a
good start before the department ar
rived and a strong wind blew the
smoke and flames directly toward the
large business blocks on North Fifth
avenue.
owners Of the larger buildings real
lied the danger from the first and as
soon as the department had a stream
on the big fire small garden hose were
ohousht INTO use, playing on the small
wooden buildings at the back of the
business places. The firemen kept two
and three streams of water on the fire

Mr.. Duffy says the origin of the fire
was undoubtedly due to a hobo or
tramp about the place. He says the
building cost $1,100. There was seoo
insurance on the stock and $3.50 on
the building itself. The original cost
OF the building has been greatly aug
mented by repairs and improvements.
In the building was dynamo, feed
grinder and other pieces of machinery
Mr.. Duffy estimates his total loss at
800.
A year ago last December Mr.. DUFFY
lost his feed barn and contents when

small amount of insurance and his loss
was over $1,000 over the insurance.
TO add to his troubles he was taken

Creamery Well Patronized,

Buttermaker Swenson of the Ulen
Farmers creamery, thirty five miles
northeast of Moorhead, says it is do
ing fine and fully up to expectations.
The creamery is we'll patronized and
the amount and quality Of the cream
received is all that can be expected.
The dry weather this year causes a
decrease in the amount of cream from
former years, but in spite of that the
receipts at the creamery are very sat-
isfactory. Very few farmers ship
their cream now and it is hoped that
in short time all will be patrons of
the creamery, which is purely farm
ers' institution.

Charles Heggman of Lisbon, N. D.,
believes that Holder Holderson com
mitted suicide. Mr.. Heggman arrived
in the city this morning to take charge
Of the remains of the dead man and
take them to Lisbon for burial.
Holderson was the grandfather of
Mrs. Heggman. +.. > iEERl!
Mr.. Heggman says that when he left
home few days before the body was
found he told the folks that he would
never return. They paid no attention
to the matter at the time, believing
that the old man intended to enter
some home of some kind, and Mr..
Heggman is of the opinion that he took
poison and will make an investigation
if possible.
He says the grandfather would be
80 years of age had he lived until
next December, and that at times he
was somewhat childish, but most of
the time he retained his reason to a
remarkable degree for one SO aged

Grain Opinions.

Bartlett Frazier: We see no reason
to change our opinion concerning
wheat values, believing in ultimately
higher prices based upon both the
domestic and foreign outlook We do
not feel that the actual damage done
so far warrants any further advance
in corn, but a continuance Of dry
weather will doubtless give us a high
er market.
Finley Darrell & Co.: We still be-
lieve that advantage should be taken
of natural reactions to buy corn while
high prices MAJ attract some country
selling and cause reaction from the ad-
vancing tendency we feel that stu
alton though not alarming but serious
enough to warrant higher prices.
S. B. Chaplin & Co.: With shortage
in pastures and reduced yields of
forage crops present prices for corn
look reasonable and the market should
work higher until there are general
and heavy rains within a few days.

THREE CALAMITIES
FOR FRED FERRIS
LAKoTA MAN PURSUED BY ILI
FoRTUNE-BANK FAILS,
HAIL COMES, STORE
FAILS.

Duluth Herald: Ill-fortune seems
to "have it in" for Fred Ferris Of La
kota, N. D., this year The story Of
the bad luck that has afflicted him in
the last few months is Of considerable
interest at the head of the lakes,
where Mr.. Ferris has relatives and
many friends.
He has lived in North Dakota for
twenty eight years and has been fortu-
nate in common with most of the ctti-
zens of that state in that period. He is
the owner of two large farms near La
kota and in the town has
a large store. This prosperity is the
evidence of his past good fortune.
Some time ago bank at Lakota was
wrecked. The official held responsible
for the collapse has just been sent
to prison for term of years. AS
a result of the bankers misdeeds and
the wrecking of the bank Mr.. Ferris
lost tidy sum. Just how much
is not stated, but it was more than a
man would care to lose under any cir
cumstances. The circumstances in
Mr.. Ferris pocketed the loss with
equanmity and planned a vacation trip
which included a lake cruise and
stay with relatives and friends at the
head of the lakes.
When MIR. Ferris and his wife land
ed here after their down lakes voyage,
the first information the North Dako-
tan received from home was to the eff
feet that hail had raided his two big
farms and destroyed every bit of grow
Ing grain on his prairie acres.
Philosophically he said that, as he
had been fortunate enough to escape
a like misfortune for twenty-eight
years, he would not now complain but
would accept the happening as a re-
minder that his prosperity was deserv-
ing of spirit of gratefulness in
him.
Mr. and Mrs. Ferris stayed on in
Duluth and Superior, enjoying their
visit to the utmost, when, the other
day he remarked to his host that he
thought he'd better he starting home
soon. He waited yet a little while, and
then the telegraph suddenly brought
the news that his big mercantile es-
adjustment had been burned to the
ground, together with a number of
other business houses in Lakota. AS
Lakota lacks a complete and modern
Ire department, insurance rates there
ire almost prohibitive and for that
'eason the stock was far from fully
insured. Mr.. Ferris loss by the fire
amounted to from $4,000 to $4,000.
That was the last straw. His vaca-
ion was brought to an abrupt end and
lie hurried home.
fortunately, twenty-eight years Of
prosperity SO. securely entrenched him
'ehind barricades of material wealth
hat the repeated onslaughts of the
orces Of fll-luck have no serious eff
ect on his fortunes.
