THE RYE AND HAY
MARKET DISCUSSED
Rye Market was Easy Last
Week and Hay De-
clining.

The rye market was easy in the
past week with too little Offering to
attract attention Of any buyers other
than those requiring a little to fill i'm
mediate necessity. There seemed to
be a place for what came in and VAL
ues showed a sameness throughout in
the n of downward prices with
small demand. The new harvest will
soon De on and with fine prospect of
a full yield. With this in mind con-
sumers n other handlers saw little
advantage in touching it more than to
meet some inquiry for small amount.
II Hay Market.
The hay market was on the down
grade last week as supplies were more
liberal thar had been expected. The
nay coming along now is of the left
over pplle on the farms and is
none too bright. Hay of choice quail
lty of most any variety was readily
salaple at quotations while stocks too
much off in the line of d%esirability was
not easily disposed of. The new crop
VIII soon be in the market and with it
the poor old hay will lack a buyer.
with this in view owners of it are de-
sirous of working off the 1911 cutting
left over. The hay scarcity bred eau
aoAAy SioloelS ilSlu, CdCI, a
little too long. considering the larger
crop to be harvested.
Hay Harvest Begun.
In the last census decade the acre
age of hay and forage of the United
States increased 1872 per cent, in pro-
duction 23 per cent, and in value 7O.2
per cent. In 1899 the total census
value Of these crops was s4S4,255,7O
ana in 1909 1T was $~s24.Oo4.S77. The
increase in value being $339.750,174.
The increase In value of all cereals in
same period combined, was 7s.s ner
cent. OF the principal cereals, barley
increased in value 122 per cent, pats
81. wheat IT'S and corr 1917 per cent.
In total value the hay crop exceeded
IN value that Of any single cereal crop.
excepting corn. which latter had a
greater value than all other cereals
combined. and was more than three
times the value of the cotton crop all
though n latter increased in value
117.3 per cent in the ten years. The
hay production decreased largely in
1910 further in 1911 but the high
er price per ton raised the total value
in 1910 above other years and with
stun 20 per cent less production in
1911 nearly equaled the highest for
mer total value.
Farmers have come to the opinion

stand uncut SO long as has been too
much the practice and have begun

places the clover hay has been al

7ODAY'S SESSION
WAS VERY WEAK
Main Cause of the Weakness
Attributed to the
Weather.

Minneapolis. July 1.-The wheat
market was extremely weak all
through today's session. Forecast of
unsettled weather with lower temper
atures in the spring wheat country
was the main cause of the weakness
and prices were down right at the
start. September in the Minneapolis
market opened from sl.06 "a to s1.o7
and slumped to S1.05 as with a half
cent rally from those figures hu sag
ged again from this rally to below the
former low mark.
Minneapolis was the weak market
ard led in the break. Liquidation in
the Chicago July was less In evidence
than was the case on Saturday.
Minneapolis stocks decreased 220,-
900 for two DAYS.

ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY.
Hon. Willis 3. Hall of Caribou Wants
to Be Secretary of State.

Caribou, Me, Sept. l7.-(SpeeiaD.-
Hon. Willis B. Hall of Caribou. an
nounces himself as a candidate for the
Office of Secretary of State Mr.. Hall.
a lawyer by profession is one OF the
earnest young Republican workers in
this section of Maine He served
with distinction, ability and zeal as
Representative from Caribou to the
Maine Legislature, in 1907 and 1909.
While in the Legislature ne drafted
and presented a memorial to Com
gress urging the Immediate passage of
the bill providing the funds for the
raising of the battleship Maine. then
lying, with its antomber heroes, be-
meath the Shiny waters of Havana har-
Dor The memorial was given unani-
nous passage and when read in both
branches of Congress the effect was
instantaneous and the law was short
~ after enacted. As a result the men
ace to shipping was removed from
the harbor; the old battleship was
given a belated, though fitting, burial
at sea, and the remains of the sailor
boys within her were brought home
and laid to rest with appropriate Ger
emony in the national cemetery at
Arlington.
For this work, Mr.. Hall received
many letters of commentator from
members of Congress and old soldiers
and sailors interested in the good
cause.
Mr. Hall is the father of the Juven-
lie Court movement in this State.
He was the Grand Chancellor of the
Grand Lodge of Maine Knights of
Pythias in 1907 winning encomiums
from his brother knights as the pre-
siding officer of that well known body.
He has been prominently identified
with every movement for the better
ment of his town. One of the monu-
ments to his efforts in this direction
is the fine public library recently cree
ted in Caribou.
That he is steadfast is evidenced by
the fact that he has been elected the
town clerk of Caribou Il consecutive
times.
His ambition to be secretary oil
State is che of long growth and comes
from the fact that his father, the late
Hon. Joseph Blake Hall, held the
same Office during the war
Willis b. Hall is one of the prom
inent lawyers of this section OF
Maine and is a man of ability, inte-
gritty and sterling worth. His selec-
ton for the high office to which he
aspires will be a fitting recognition oi
his unselfish laborssfor his town, coun-
ty and State. 1t would greatly please
the Republicans of The county. tAroos
took spoke in no uncertain terms fol
the Republican ticket st the recent
eleetion), and his many friends in boil
parties throughout the State.
