CABLES.

Liverpool-The tirmer feeling at the
close in New York yesterday caused
the market to open steady and un-
changed to is higher. Following the
opening there was some covering by
shorts and prices further advanced 1-2
to la on reduced estimates regarding
the Argentine crop and a better de-
mand for plate cargoes which are
more firmly held. There is an i'm.
proved demand from millers. Re.
ports from India are favorable while
advices from Russia are unfavorable
as to freezing and thawing and the
scarcity there of millable wheat. AT
1880 r. m. the market was firm and
la higher than yesterday.
Corn was steady and unchanged at
the opening, but later the American
grade was advanced LIS on the firm.
ness in American southwest markets
and a better demand for spot.

DECIDES
TO REMAIN WET By
VOTE OF 42O TO 246

Tillamook, Ore, Jan. 16.-Tilla-
nook will remain wet. The proposed
charter amendment submitted which
would make the sale of liquor within
the city Illegal was defeated, 420 to
246.
Several hundred women voted. The
total number of ballots. 6S7, is larger
than the vote cast at the mayoralty
election a month ago.
Whether the ''prohis" will make an
other attempt to prohibit liquor is un-
certain. City Attorney Bolts con-
tends that the section of the local op-
ton law which provides that when a
district has voted wet. no election
shall be held for year is not effec-
tive.

FARMERS SCARCE;
NONE TO BE HIRED

Walla Walla, Wash, Jan. 16.-Not-
withstanding the fact that clerks,
statesmen, bookkeepers and practically
all other kind of semi-professional
help can be hired at will, there are no
farmers to be had, according to Oliver
C. Cornwell, president of the Walla
Walla Farmers Union, who says far
mers are the hardest class of men in
the world to hire.
There are no farmers to be had"
said Mr.. Cornwell. We can get men
who know how to harness a mule and
who can ploy three acres a day, but
they are not farmers. They are labor
ers. The attractions the city offer
have become so great that there is no
longer anyone to be had for farm
management. People say the man
WHO can plow three acres a day but
three acres a day can manage a farm
That is not so. One might expect such
man to sucteed in the successful
management Of a farm as we'll as
would a railroad fireman placed a,
the head of one of the great systems
of the country
There is q constantly increasing
demand for men who can manage
farms on a business basis. The farm
Is as much of a business proposition
as the biggest manufacturing plant
in the country today and 1t needs men
with ability as managers. The agri-
cultural schools are trying to do their
part. but the people will not listen.
The lad goes away to agricultural
school te get a practical knowledge
of farm management. He gets taste
of city life, drops into some job that
will keep him in the city and forgets
about the opportunity offered by the
farm.
Farmers have no trouble in get
ting common laborers. but there Is a
scarcity of men who have the ability
to manage"
