GREEN BUGS USED
TO BOOST WHEAT
Sample of Insect Displayed at
Chicago Board of Trade Fol-
lowing Damage Reports and
Prices Show Gain.
BY JOSEPH +. PRITCHARD.

CHICAGO, April 81 A sample OF
wheat from central Oklahoma con
tanning green bugs was displayed on
the board Of trade Thursday. a mes
sage YVES received fropn Kansas City
aging ihat the green bugs were in
thnt market from Oklahoma on a sam
pie OF the new plant. but not until the
iltrle pests were brought upon the
exchange floor at Chicago did the
wheat trade take any cOgniZance OF the
report. The market reacted IS n 7-Sc
from the lowest points reached on the
green bugs appearance and closed
with net gains Of IA n 5-6c for the
day
II will be remembered that in 1907
there was "A green bug" scare in the
wheat markets OF the country on the
appearance Of these pests in the spot
where they have been discovered this
year. They devOured everything that
was Of a vegetable character al that
time and the losses TO the farmers
were sensational Those who know
the habits OF the green bug say there
has been too much rain for them to
do any great amount OF damage, and
that they flourish only where the
ground is dry.
Outside Of the green bug appear
ance the crop OF wheat in all sections
Of the southwest was reported as ideal.
The weather throughout the winter
wheat belt is seasOnable in all direc-
lions and the crop will doubtless con-
tinue TO improve in strength under
the rays OF an early spring sun. There
is a falling off in the southwestern
stocks of wheat. both Kansas City and
ST. Louis reporting decreases for the
week. The cash situation in all parts
Of the country was reported as slow.
Corn was helped no little by the
strength shown in wheat late and
there were net gains Of IA a. 3-Sc.
Cash transactions were still small at
1900 bushels and there was talk
Of bringing a cargo Of Argentine corn
from Montreal 10 Chicago at a cheap
water rate. Several cargoes were re-
ported as sold G. j. T. New York at 64c
for April shipment
While the trade in corn was inactive
Thursday there was no great amount
Of stir because of the stand taken
either by the bulls OF the bears. Those
with profits were eager 10 secure the
money, while there was a. general dis
position in the market TO even up po-
sitiOns
Oats were "A shade higher. the in

The bullish hog news. the strength
in corn and the covering by shorts
were the influences in the provision

Gains were shown all around but
these were small. Longs were on the
selling side in order 20 secure profits
and shorts were buyers. Cash trade
was still rather quiet but packers
claim that indications are most favor

If CHILDHOOD WOULD LAST.

a child came skipping, dancing by my

Doctor Says Most Diseases Would Be

Be Cured,
HAROLD soMSRs. 1so D.KAlb

We have heard too much about the
rights of the individual; let us know
more about his duties. Too much
stress has been laid on the sacred
ness Of private property and too little
on the duty of all to contribute to the
welfare of the whole. Preventive
medicine has demonstrated in a prac-
tlcal way the force of the Biblical
statements that no man liveth to him
self alone, and that every man is his
brothers keeper.
II preventive medicine is to bestow
on man its richest service, the time
must come when every citizen will
submit himself to a thorough medical
examination once a year or oftener.
The benefits which would result from
such a service are so evident to med
1cal men that retail is not desirable.
When recognized in their early stages
most Of the disease which now pre-
vail are amenable to treatment. The
early recognition Of tuberculosis, can
Ger and heart disease, with the elm
nation of the more acute infectious
disease, would add something like
fifteen years to the average life, be-
sides saving much in invalidism and
suffering. The ultimate goal Of
science is the domination of the
forces of nature and their utilization
in promoting the welfare Of mankind.
Science must discover the facts and
medicine must make the application
for either cure of prevention.-Victor
G. Vaughan. M. D., in the Journal of
the American Medical Association.
