PRIcE-cuRRENT GRAIN RERoRr.

CINCINNATI. Nov. 26.-The large in
crease in winter wheat acreage and
splendid weather give assurance of a
fine initial condition, but all Deem
Der reports, with few exceptions give
such promise.
Presence of "Hessian fly is noted in
most of the wheat, with heavy infesta-
ton reported in Eastern Kansas, which
lost its wheat several years ago Q90S)
from fly trouble.
p 1t seems certain that Argentina will
not make record crop. 1t may have
less than the average eXportable sur
plus but the rest of the exportable world
has so much in sight that Europe seems
sure of getting ample supplies until the
Southern Hemisphere begins its ship
ping, which will be at the end of Jan
uaT|.
Europe, though literally supplied with
corn, Is recognizing that receipts from
now to the marketing of new Argen-
tine crop will be small and the appre-
citation of prices at Liverpool has been
constant until they have reached d point
where re-shipping of Platte corn is out
of the question.

JERSEY JURISTS ADVOCATE
HAVING WOMEN ON JURIES

TRENTON, y. j., March Judge
Frederick w. Gnichtel, of the Mercer
County Court. and number of other
well-known Jersey jurists are advo-
eating the placing Of women on grand
and petit juries. This is in line with
the movement started in this State
by Woodrow Wilson when Governor
for jury changes.
The movement for women jurors
has become so strong there is a pos
sibility that the present Legislature
may pass an act allowing women to
sit on jurles.
Judge Gnichtel declares there is no
reason why women should not act as
jurors He says they can keep secrets
as we'll as men, Notwithstanding all
that has been said to the contrary.
"It is foolish to say woman Is not
able to keep a secret" said Judge
Gnichtel ut is only question
of time until they will be called TO
serve on juries. There is no doubt in
my mind they viii make good jury
| women.
