kEOKUK WILL
HARB0R DUCKS
TO PLANT WILD RICE AND OTHER
DUCK FOOD IN BROAD
LAKE COOPER.

Keokuk, June 10-Since the conser-
walton movement has reached the wild
duck in his native haunts, this city
promises to add few millions Of
ducks to it's show features. The idea
Is to make the lake above the Keokuk
dam specially attractive to the ducks.
Congress has already made 1t un-
lawful to shoot ducks on the upper
Mississippi river at any time. Game
Wardens enforce the law strictly.
Prominent members of the society
which accomplished all this have pass
ed along the shores of the lake above
tie Keokuk DAM 1t is a lake of a
hundred square miles area. The duck
conservationists quickly saw it's cap
abilities as summer resort for wild
ducks.
The plan now under way is to SOW
wild rice and other duck food in all
the shallow waters along the shores
of the lake in the Mississippi here. The
lake shore generally shelves off quick
ly into deep water, but there are sew
eral thousand scattered acres avail
able for duck pastures. If the United
States, or the states of>Iowa and ILL
nois, will sow this acreage to wild rice,
1T Is believed that the lake will be
fairly alive with wild ducks during the
spring and summers.
The United States government has
given good deal Of attention to util-
izing the lake created above the big
keokuk dam. Some millions of young
bass have been placed there under
especially favorable conditions. Recent
official reports say Illinois is already
the second state in the union in the
value of it's fishing industry, and it is
believed that the lake created by the
Keokuk dam will greatly increase it's
output of fish. Iowa also will benefit
in this respect.

Chicago, June '1o.-Belief that the
short selling Of wheat on account OF the
prospective big crop has been overdone
caused the market today to rally. In
addition, there were advices from Liv-
erpool that general European buying
was on a big scale and was expected to
continued. Pit offerings here We're
light. After start unchanged to 4 % @o
OF, prices scored moderate all
around advance. Drought In the Ohio
Valley and in the region west OF there
tended to make the corn market firm.
Bulls were encouraged by reports OF
an Improvement In the shipping de-
mand east The opening which ranged
between Nc decline and Is @ Nc ad-
vance was followed by substantial
upturn.
Later the market eased off because
Of new wheat on the way to Kansas
City. The close was steady y to y q Y

Oats climbed as a result of serious
damage to the crop In Illinois and

ginning to fire owing to the prolonged
heat Provisions sagged In line with
