WAGNER'S REVIEW
Morning Grain Letter.

Chicago, July 24-Morning wheat
news covers largest export sales OF
wheat in past few weeks in many
years. Baltimore sales are record. for
many years back. United States ex-
ported 100000 wheat last Septem-
Der and October and it looks like a
duplication this fall. These big sales
mean that wheat is a merchandising
proposition. They also mCan that the
forthcoming exports will drain the
primary movement. Wheat should be
resilient. Twenty-four hours to p.
IN. Wednesday temperatures were cool
mainly everywhere. and Iowa, Mis-
souri,, Nebraska, Indiana and Illinois
received rains, which were scattered.
Bulls in corn and oats say these grains
may drag lower if rains and cool, but
are at safe level. VIII regain all
declines. Chicago shipments of wheat
were small on Wednesday, but corn
and oats amounts we're fairly good
Cash corn and oats demand yesterday
not good. Price current figures oats
promise poor and equal to 503,000,00C
in the eight leading states against
S3S,000,0 600 last year. We have re
ceived about $50 reports this week
Corn condition is about so to 81. Kan
sas reports run 10 to 60 Half Of
Nebraska has a fair promise. Illinois
has lost some condition.

When You Are Weary

Are you weary? Breathe more. eat
less Active exercise will not rest you
from mental work.
when you are tired with mental
work" says a we'll known physician.
''do not think you must take active
exercise. That will make you more
weary. All you need are rest and more
air in your lungs. Sit down quietly
and comfortably and breathe deeply
twenty-five times. Rest II moment and
repeat.
This air forced into the body re-
moves the waste material which
makes you weary.
Don't eat all you want.
Food not needed for support of the
system is so much extra work for the
body and requires more air to dispose
of it.
This regimen will diminish your
grocery bill and save your shoe
leather"-Chicago Tribune.

TURKISH sTolcIsM.
A Very Poor Shot and Perfectly Good
Natured Target.

An incident that occurred in the ex.
perience of an English officer is told by
the London Spectator to illustrate the
calmness and Indifference to death and
bodily danger characteristic OF the
Turkish soldier
The officer. accompanied by guard
of Turkish soldiers. went to the edge
of cliff overlooking the sea to shoot
at seal that he saw disporting itself
IN the wa Ter below.
He fired a good many times. and the
last shot bad gone very near the bob
bing mark when one OF the soldiers
came to him and politely asked. do
You not think. sir. that you have fired
often enough at Sergeant Yussuf?p
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1913-07-24

The supposed seal was indeed the
sergeant.
Presently the sergeant came ashore,
put on his clothes and came up the
handsomely and blamed himself free
ly. But Yussuf. like his companions,
did not think there was much to be
concerned about. After all. the mark
had been very small. 1t was natural
to fire at it. it was unlikely that the Of
ficer would hit it. and he (Yussuf) had
not minded it at all.

Europe's Production.

Europe's Production.
Chicago, H.. July 24.-Consuming
Europe will evidently raise somewhat
less wheat than one year ago. Euro
pean visible of 66,0O0,000 is small.
Russian crop is guessed around last
years total a. 72O,O0O.O00 or so. The
great question in Russia is quality.
Last year the big crop was not gener-
ally merchandisible. Cost of meats
and living is high abroad. In Eng.
land, one northern city has just voted
to increase the rents of its entire iml
proved property owing to increased
costs. Europe should absorb 100000,
600 wheat and -four for 1928. Rus
sian quality will decide the wheat
price. August is occasionally bull
month but more often the August ad-
ure of world new wheat at terminals.
Low wheat prices of any season rarely
arrive in August or September as the
data of worlds crops is still in the
rough at this time. The coming Au-
gust and September will witness an
immense drifting abroad of United
| States wheat. Our reports continue
TO indicate corn condition of so to

would be very liberal. Not enough

be succeeded by rapid bulges. Your

MORGAN STORIES.
The Great Banker, Blunt and
Gruff, Could Enjoy a Joke.

Most people who knew ]. P. Morgan
knew him as a man blunt to the point
of gruffness, yet he had keen sense
of humor. This is recalled by the way
he appreciated so well the joke Of &
young Irishman who served in his Of
fee as a sort of exalted porter that he
raised his salary.
The joke was on one of the bankers
visitors. who. thinking TO have some
fun with the young man. remarked to
him his was a most difficult task, keep
ing those whom Mr.. Morgan did not
wish to see away from him without
giving oTense.
That's So" said the lrishman. but
l don't mind earn 500 week"
Duly impressed, the visitor remarked
to Mr.. Morgan that he paid pretty
good salaries. mentioning the figure
given him by the doormun. Mr.. Nor
I gan rang for him.
What do you mean he demanded.
"by telling this gentleman that pay
/ you $50 q week."
II never told him anything of the
/ sort. SIR the man replied. Il told
! him l earned $50 a week keeping
cranks out. and think do
Well" said Morgan. lighting up.
I'VE won't discuss that now. but just
tell the bookkeeper you are to have So
more a week And have no more talk
with my inquisitive friend here on the
private affairs OF the Office
Every banking house has little pecu-
lations at one time or another. No
public record exists to show that the
Morgan house suffered in this respect.
but that is because the banker handled
these cases in his own way. Two such
cases are recalled by veteran in the
street In one the culprit. married
man, admitted that he was some $500
short when the head Of the house
called him into his Office. 1t had gone
in speculation. he said. He admitted
that his salary was ample for his
needs.
Mr.. Morgan advised him to go home
and tell his wife about 1t and see him
in the morning. In the morning he
handed him the amount lie was short

Later the clerk returned the none,
to him, with Il stammering expression
of thanks.
"Humph" said the banker. at wa

wasn't it? Well. now. take it home an,

The other clerk, unmarried, becam

and, like the other, repaid it. Not Ion
afterward Mr.. Morgan called him int
his Office and gave him three months
notice.

Morning Stock Letter.

New York, July 24.-Stocks promise
TO be irregular for the next few days.
1t will depend good deal upon the
amount of selling pressure that devel-
ops. There was little yesterday. If
the market gets very dull, We see an.
other uplift on the shorts; but in any
event the market will probably work
within a narrow range, until some
thing decisive occurs to take it out OF
the rut. Continue trading position in
stocks. Reduce long holdings OIL
