Your Mind on Your Work.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
The man who makes good Is the man
who can shut out Of his mind all but
one thing. An unsuccessful principal of
"a school once said that every teacher
ought to be able to do three things at
once. OF course, he was wrong. The
teacher who does one thing at a time
and does 1t well is giving the pupil the
best possible object lesson in concentra-
ton. We have TO learn to think clearly
amid distracting noises, to go forward on
a strait and narrow. way without diver
sions and excursions that waste our time
and our substance. and to keep at work
regardless of the tired feeling. the
spring" feeling. ami whether the fishing
is good or not. When the soft breeze
comes in at the wiz dow We must stiffen
the moral fiber against its aliurement.
We must pin our attention firmly to the
turgid and dry geometry of q legal brief,
or the serried figures OF the daybook, or
the busy system OF a mercantile eStab-
hshment, and let every other thought
await its turn at the end of office hours.
You may have heard a great lawyer in
action in a crowded courtroom. What
was the secret of his power? 1T was that
he would not let the jury's attention or
the witness tongue wander from the rele-
want facts. He kept insistently to the
straight line that is the shortest distance
from point to point. He CURLY dismiss
ed all that was siIperfiuous, immaterial
and calculated to bl UT the salient outlines
of the matter in controversy.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1913-03-23
GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, March Pleading bulls
who were very plainly in control, hoisted
the wheat market today, presumably for
effect on foreign exchanges after Eas-
ter. The close was firm, 4 to ssa4 net
higher. Other leading staples, too, show
ed an advance as compared with forty
eight hours before: Corn, AaSs to 81
oats. "a to 3sah and provisions, 12E to 20
There was not great deal OF selling
opposition to the upturn in wheat Cold
weather discouraged the bears. despite
the fact that experts in the fields were
unanimous in reporting tie general out
look as nearly perfect as 1t could be at
this season. On the other hand con-
siderable apprehension existed among
many traders. who held that whatever
may happen between now and harvest
time must be for the worse.
Wheat bulls had a freer hand because
wire conditions prevented receipt of quo
tations from outside points. 1t was also
figured that the natural effect or the
storms would be to lessen arrivals at the
principal railroad terminals PRIMARY
receipts of wheat for the day, however
were decidedly incomplete. Total sea-
board clearances of wheat and flour for
two DAYS euualed 10000 bushels (Bal-
timore missing), against 1S7,OOO bushels
for one day a year ago.
Expectation that bad roads would in
terfere with movement OF corn caused
firmness in that grain Later there was
an easier feeling on account of advices
that railroad facilities east were being
overtaxed and corn shipments were be-
ing held on demurrage. Delayed seed
ing of oats sent prices in that market up.
Lightness of hog receipts caused firm
ness in the provision list Nevertheless
some selling developed on the theory that
there would be liberal run OF storm-de-
aged hogs next week.

Despite the IdCL IndC the new i DIN
clearing house banks decreased their
cash holdings 100000 during the week.
rejecting the loss of gold exports, the
institutions increased their surplus re-
serve by $4,31S, 75O and reported an excess
above the 25 per cent minimum reserve
Saturday amounting TO S13. $4,000 This
Strengthening of position was brought
about. by the familiar operation Of de-
creasing loan commitments, the shrinkage
in that item for the week having been $50,
$50 900. 1t Is quite probable, in view OF
the prevailing rates, that outside tnstl-
tutions are lending literally in this
market. as the trust companies of New
York also reported for the week a shrink
age of $14 $50, go in their loans. The
decrease in loans was reflected directly
in the shrinkage of $36, Ala, coo in deposits.
This lessened reserve requirements by
something over $900O,0OO. so that not
only was the loss in cash counteracted,
but surplus rose in the amount just stated.
Considering the continued loss of gold
i'm remarkably strong position. They
hold S35.OOOOOO less cash than reported
the first week in February, but their
surplus reserve is to be considered as
normal for this season. The flow of cash
at present is from the interior In the
direction of New York, but the period Is
at hand when spring requirements may
not only check this flow but call for. re-
mittances from New York. In view OF
conflicting factors in the way OF interior
needs for money and the strain on New
York banks by reason Of the gold export
demand the future Of the money market
over the next month or so affords an
interesting problem.
