To-Day was the first time that Canadian
authorities acknowledged the crop situa-
ton 10 be serious concerning the black
rust In wheat At Chicago the admission
caused less surprise and excitement than
appeared TO be the case at markets nearer
The scene. There were advices that North
Dakota nelds which had promised 20
bushes an acre had shriveled to BUSH
damage HAD become apparent within the
last Two days. IL was also stated thai

boundary line wheat had been damaged.
yield the smallest since 1899 was another
hullish influence in profit taking which
led TO reaction tor a while and so
did comprehensive statements that the
shortage in Russia was exaggerated. Ac-
tive buying was renewed however, and
lasted right up to the close. During the
day, September ranged from 92%c to 93Mc,
closing steady, hql%c net higher at $3.50.
General rains weakened corn as COM

REEF STEERS

HOGS-Hog supply dropped to the lowest
level of the season, only forty-two cars
showing up. Not since the latter part OF
March has the car record been less than
this estimate and only on two or three
previous occasions during the slack period
following New Years did receipts dwindle
to less than 1000 head
run of famine size naturally caused
a panicky scramble in buying circles and
yards were cleared In hurried fashion at
broad advances. The main market was a
1O415c higher affair, but now and then a
load Of weighty butcher or lard hogs
brought figures fully l5c and perhaps zoe
over those paid Saturday The bottom
portion OF the trade usually drew the most
Improvement.
Everything moved scaleward within an
hour or so after the opening and shippers
were aggressive buyers at all times. About
twenty-five loads, a full 90 per cent OF
the total, sold on orders from independent
concerns at other points.
Bulk OF business, despite its smaIlness.
was more or less scattered. Much OF the
supply sold at spread OF S7.1097.90 and
choice bacon animals topped at $40 the
highest price paid locally in over five
months.

Place of the Artist Who Drew
the Pictures for the
Contest.

J. II. Bath. winner of The Bees Book
lovers contest. held a veritable levee IN MS
little florists shop in the northwest corner
OF the Boyd theater building all Monday
morning. Friends, strangers, other con-
testants and also-rans dropped In by twos
and threes and the dozen to see the proud
new owner OF the Apperson Jack Rabbit.
which was the first prize
Cries OF "Honkl Honk!" were shouted in
through the open door by other facetious
minded friends. who. too busy to stop,
wanted to remind Bath that they also re-
joiced in his good fortune.
Although many OF the participants in the
reception accorded the florist were friends
and acquaintance, by far the larger num-
Der were strangers. in the majority Of
cases other contestants. Many showed .
touch of envy, but all congratulated him
warmly One woman from South Omaha,
who stopped in and introduced herself. was
typical OF he rest.
~ should have liked the auto myself"
she said. II and my son we're both trying
hard for it, However. since you have been
pronounced the winner / am glad OF your
good fortune and want to congratulate
you. Without doubt you deserved II. How
did you do III"
How He Did IL.
This last question was the general one:
How did you do it?''
There Is no great secret about IT," al
ways replied Bath modestly, II simply
outguessed the artist. A picture might
on the face OF II mean several things The
idea l worked upon was to put myself in
the place of the artist and try to get the
meaning he dhe artist was attempting
to convey"
What are you going to do with it~'
was another question always asked, with
generally a little envy lurking in the tones
OF the questoner's voice.
We'll. / am going to learn TO run Il first
Of ALL" was the reply. Then am going
to get all the fun out of II that there is
In it."
Baths mother, smiling, sweet-faced
woman of possibly so years. came into the
shop during the progress of her sons ro-
ception.
Il certainly am proud OF my SON. she
said, ''he has been a great reader ever
since he was little fellow, but I never
have thought it would ever win him an
automobile"
