Temple building. Phone 1881
Chicago, Nov. rs. -Wheat-General
news was against the market and
slight losses were recorded. Argentine
weather was reported as improved in
some quarters and less favorable in
others, a contradictory situation. Pri-
mary receipts for the first time in sew
eral months exceeded last year, due
mainly, to the arrival Of cargoes at
lake ports. Shipments were only about
half as large as year ago. A free
movement from Canadian and United
States lake ports may be expected from
now until the close Of navigation.
Corn-Unfavorabie weather over the
cries, while later months were Is a.
lower. Liverpool was sharply lower on
realizing sales due to large Danbian Of
fers. The Price Current gave inter-
esting figures as to the percentage Of
farm consumption OF corn as compared
with last year. showing a saving Of
from to 80 per cent in the various
corn raising states.
Oats-Oats acted within a narrow
range, the trade consisting largely Of
changing from December to May. Cash
demand continues fairly good with
sales today Of $4,000 bushels.
Provisions-As in the grain market,
the trade in provisions was largely of
an evening up character over the hol-
iday. Prices followed largely the trend
of hog values, weakening at the close
with the easy closing Of the hog mar
ket. Cash trade was reported fair.

UNITED STATES CAN GAIN MANY
VALUABLE POINTERS ON SOIL
CONSERVATION.
PRACTICES IN AMERICA
TENDS TO WAsTEFULNEss
Many Evils Growing UP in Present
Tenant System and With No lnesn.
tive For Tenants to Put Back What
He Takes out-Cons srvation Of Soil
Even in Badly Governed Ireland.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, Nov. 25.-The fact that
there is great and needless waste of
soil fertility in this county as compared
with some countries abroad. and espe-
cially with the British Islands, was i'm
pressed on the men and women who
of the conservation congress by DIR.
Henry Wallace, of Des Moines. DR..
Wallace has lately returned from a
study of agricultural conditions in
England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales
as commissioner for the state of
Iowa. He was accompanied by former
Secretary James Wilson.
DR.. Wallace was called on to speak
at meeting of the state conservation
commissioners. He commanded the at
tention of his audience by telling those
present that this country had a lot to
learn from the old country with re-
spect to the conservation Of the re-
sources of the soil. He showed that
the present practice In American tends
TO waste the fertility of the soil and
that wastefuiness OF SOIL fertility in
heres in the present tenant system
with respect to farm zands in the
United States. This has a big bearing
on the cost Of living and tends steadily
TO diminish the productivity Of the
farms
Whore Europe ExesIs.
The difference between the United
States and the British Islands with re.
spect to leasing lands in this. DR.. Wall
lace explained: Abroad, whatever the
tenant puts into the soil In the way Of
fertility he gets pay for; here, the ten
ant gets nothing but what he can
Skin" from the land. The result is
that in Britain, the tendency Is toward
long leases. The renter shifts about
comparatively little. In this country,
the renter is constantly shifting. The
owner gets all he can out Of the ten
ant and the tenant extracts all he can
out Of the soil. The soil Is impover-
ished.
Yes" said DR.. Wallace. I'VE have a
lot to learn yet. we can obtain many
valuable lessons from the way they do
these things abroad Why. to my sur
prise, I found that even in Ireland. in
spite of their bad laws. they have con-
served the fertility OF the soil I asked
them how it was. They replied: We
had to do it or starve.' They simply
had TO keep the land fertile because
otherwise they would have been un-
able to raise enough to eat"
The land and all that is in 1t and on
it belongs to the man who put 1t there.
That" said DR.. Wallace, els the main
idea Of the British law respecting the
leasing Of lands. It Is the important
point to be remembered in consider
ing the difference between their way Of
looking at 1t and OURS.
DR.. Wallace was member OF the
Roosevelt country life commission and
is one of the ablest agricultural au-
.horities in America.

Chicago. Nov. 26.-Atho favorable
weather in Argentina had oearish ef-
feet today on wheat rhe market rallied.
Russian reports favored the bull side
and there were reports Of lack Of rain
fall in South Dakota and Nebraska.
The big export business tended also to
check any material decline. The open
ing was a shade to \ @ss lower. On the
reaction the market went slightly
above last nights level.
Later advices OF rain in Argentina
helped to sustain prices. On the other
hand Australian harvest reports were
optimistic. The close was steady at
a shade to 4 net decline.
Corn.
Corn hardened on account Of general
rains. Lower cables however, gave
the bears an advantage at the outset
First sale varied from Is off to a like
mount up, but prices then gradually
advanced.
Covering by Decent Der shorts aided
in upholdtng the market. The close was
steady at the same figures as last night
to Is and 4 cent lower.
Oats.
Absence Of selling pressure allowed
orts to sympathiZe with the firmness in
corn. Stocks in country elevators were
reported as not excessive.
Provisions.
Provisions had poor support Pack
ers and miscellaneous longs offered
freely and even at the start had
brought about a setback Of 24ls to 124s
cents lower.

ing a period covering six years, W. J.
Ranney, chief clerk in the office of the
auditor of the Santa Fe railroad here, was
arrested last night and lodged in the coun-
ty jail.
The specific charge on which Ranney
was arrested was the alleged theft of 500
but Acting General Manager Hubbard was
authority for the statement that the total
amount of the shortage would approx
mate at least the larger sum.
Assistant District Attorney WEIGH, into
whose hands the Santa Fe officials put the
case, said that from the information he
had received. the alleged shortage was
not found out until about week ago.
Fraudulent vouchers are said to have
been used TO conceal it.

where he has been prominent socially for
some years. He was made chief clerk in
the office of Auditor Jones, of the Santa
Fe, six years ago.
