Chicago Gossip.

Chicago, Nov. 24.-Corn specialists
explained the weakness and decline
yesterday as due to the unloading OF
100000 of May by Champlin and about
as much more of December by a local
trader who has been quite bullish Of
late. The latter said that prices were
so much higher than last year and
the market has dragged so much Of
late that he thought prices were high
enough for the time being. Conserva-
tive traders said there was a larger
shortage in December and that IL is a
weather proposition. Should there be
no increase in the movement in the
next two weeks they look for Deem
her to gain sharply on May. There
was only sac difference last night and
they expect December to sell at q

Sowing Bronze Grass.

The amount of bronze grass seed
to sow in this country depends upon
a number of conditions. If the soil d
not in a very good physical condition
more seed should be used than Il tht
soil is well prepared. However, W.
must not expect to secur a stand Of
bronze grass on dry land unless w
have a well prepared seed bed and At
that it may take a year to germinate
fully and two or three seasons to
thicken up. In seasons with a great
deal of moisture we should use :
larger amount Of seed because the e.
cess of water would promote larger
growth. Taking 1t on the whole, We
should SOW from eight to fourteen
pounds to the acre. A depth Of from
one-half to one and one-half inches
will not be too deep for the seed.

show or carnival Is there with its snake charm
ers and giants and dwarfs and the fortune tellers
and popcorn vendors have the old elusive way of
inducing you to part with your coin. Even the
fans and badges and tiny flags and gold" medals
of yesteryear look and cost the same as they did
as far back as memory can carry you. About
the only new things at the county fair, in fact, are
the moving picture shows in their somber black
tents and the Ice cream cones that have sup
planted the one-time "fvecent dish with two
spoons"
The men who have been conducting county fairs
long enough to make comparisons will tell you
that, all In all. 1t costs just about as much to
hold a fair nowadays as 1t did a decade or two
ago, presuming, that is. that you hang up" about
as much in prizes for the show and speed classes.
Some items have been cut over the expenses in
the old days, whereas other OUTLAWS have in
creased. owing to the increased cost of living or
some other new influence. For one thing. the
fair managers save some money in heralding the
fair. For the sentiment of the thing, they still
have to make use of some of those gaudy posters
in blue and red and yellow that from time out Of
mind have filed childish dreams every autumn.
but they don't spend money to plaster these
posters on every barn and fence and covered
bridge In the county, as they were wont to do in
the old days. AS the number of country news
papers has increased they have provided a better
ana cheaper way OF telling the people of the de-
lights OF the coming fair. On the other hand.

wants to be right up to date and have an airshin
night each day, will cost more than in the old
days. A parachute jumper or an acrobat who
did the thrilling slide for life did not demand
half as much money. usually, as the expert aero
pianist who wants a fee Of $500 and upward.
A feature OF the county fair that hasn't changed
with the lapse Of time Is the season for holding
the event. The conclusion Of the harvest. which
leaves the farmer comparatively c~are-free and
let US hope, with money In his pocket. dictates the
GATE OF this annual festival. In some parts Of
the country September is the favorite month for
