A fellow might be pardoned for
trading jackknlves "unsight and un-
seen." but IL he knows which side his
bread is buttered on he will draw the
line in the use Of this method when 1t
comes to getting a wife or a piece Of
land. Hardly day goes by for the
country as a whole but some unsus-
pecting victim is sending his good
hard cash to some promotion company
for land which could never produce
crop. owing to the absence OF water
or the opposite condItion-so much wa
ter that the soil could never he drain
ed. II is n bit expensive to travel hun
dreds OF miles before buying piece
of land. but 1t is the only safe or sen
sihle thing 10 do.

Markets of the World
WHEAT MAKES
new RECORD
PRICES BOUNCED UP-BAD FIELD
CONDITIONS IN OHIO ONE OF
CAUSES.

Chicago, May 6.-Wheat prices today
bounced up to new high records for the
crop. An official report from Ohio MAX
ing the field conditions worse than any
private estimate, was largely respon-
sible. There was also news that the
United States had resumed export
sales, notably to France and Antwerp.
The bulls were likewise encourage by
the Missouri state report, the absence
of rain in kansas and by advices' that
the Russian crop prospects had become
adverse. On the other hand world
shipments were larger than expected.
The market opened y TO IA hlgher.
July at the outset ranged from $l:13ss
to $1.14, q gain Of 5s to $l.14 and later
rose to $1.14a. -
A big decrease in the United States
visible supply total strengthened the
market still more. The close, however,
was easy with July ss G1Ac net hlgh-
er at s1.14aa @1.14h.
There was considerable selling pres
sure on corn. Increased acreage IN Mis-
souri, had influence on the bear SIDE.
Demand was slow. July opened un-
changed to NC up at TN to 77ss,
touched 77B @TA and then declined 10
TIC. $780,
After some additional backset the
market rallied in sympathy with wheat.
The close, though, was weak, 9sc doWn
at 767sc.
Traders in the oats crowd took their
cue from the fine weather. Business
was active and sentiment bearish. July
started a shade to Nc lower at 53A to
53as @531s reacted to 53% and after
ward dropped to 531s q 53A
A falling off in hog receipts west as
with the previous week serv-
ed to strengthen provisions. First sales
we're unchanged to INC higher with
