Prediction. ,

The Weather Bureau predicts heavy
frost tonight In the District of Column

temperature will vary around SO degrees.
while in the country districts a still
lower temperature is anticipated. 1T

result to the crops" II was stated at
the bureau. Warmer weather is PROM
ined for tomorrow.
With the arrival OF the first frost of
the fall this morning in nearby counties
Of Virginia and Maryland, the attention
of the small boy and girl, and the grown
folk, too, 10 turned to the gathering of
chestnuts, hickory nuts, chinkapins, and
the pulling Of the "goober." or peanut
vines.
sunday hundreds of washington folk
will journey to the groves and woods
IN Maryland and Virginia In search OF
towns show that the crop OF chestnuts
this season Is very good.
Although tradition has II that chest
nuts are not at their best until frost
hits them, they have been sold In
Washington for the past ten days. But
this supply is known as the advance

huskers who never wait till frost ar
rives.
But, nevertheless, frost seems to have
a wonderful effect in opening up the

them.

shown clearly In Canadian Pacific,

vance was fairly we'll sustained through
the morning. The London market
showed substantial advances for Amer
leans, and especial strength, was shown
abroad In copper stocks.
Steel, Reading, Lehigh Valley. and

and the advance was more than sustain
ed except In the first stock.
Specialtses were a feature Of the
trading. with Corn Products and Enam-
cling leading. Mercantile Marine and
Paper common shared the advances.
Corn Products advance Is undoubtedly
due to the great corn crop which will
enable the production Of It's products at
