DOUCHNUTS BEAT
WHEAT PRICES
Farmer Along County Line
Gets First Profit From His
Grain This Season

John Porter. who lives on the old
Harvey Thomas farm. near Booths
Corner, has become known along the
county line this winter as the dough
nut man" because he handles dozens
and scores and bushels OF dough-
nuts
The story is that Mr. Porter had "a
fair wheat crop last fall and thought
to sell il al one of the local mills, but
he found the price of wheat was es
Itablished by the Liverpool market and
his wheat had 20 be received in COM
petition with Duluth wheat and Cana-
dian wheat and Argentine wheat and
Australian wheat and wheat from
every otner par of the globe
"NO eighty-four cents for me, he
is said to have replied when the
quotations were mentioned
So MT Porter went home and
thought. He remembered that as "a
hoy he was fond Of doughDuts, and
he fancied perhaps some of his
lneighbors might like doughnuts. Hc
had house and stove and knew
where he could procure some fat
Moreover he knew how TO find a ckili-
ed artist in the culinary line whose
doughnuts We're like a dream of Araby
tho Blcst He would try.
Soon a basket appeared ON the road
and later white wagon, and Porters
doughnuts we're known In an that
locality Concord Bethel Birming-
ham. Chichester -all these and others
heard of them and wanted more. Mr.
Porter had his wheat ground int,
/ -four and the Hour made into dough
nuts, and when his own wheat was
gone he bought his neighbor's crop
meanwhile listening each day 10 the
iingling of dimes and quarters i'm his
pocket ana watching a snug litu,
bank account grow
"You see. says one of his feminine
friends, when you can have a dozel
doughnuts fresh and delicious de
llivered at your door for ten cents. i
does not pay 10 make them In th'
first place. it takes "a lot OF fat which
costs money and YOU are liable il
have il spattored an over YOU Then
they are an awful nuisance TO do, an,
you get your kitchen covered witi
grease and you can't get the smell on
of the house for a week They are
worse than cabbage and onions
Il So trade is good and competition
from Canada Australia and The
Argentine does not count

WHEAT PRICE IS
AGAIN BOOSTED
HEAVY FALLING OFF IN THE
VISIBLE SUPPLY IN UNITED
STATES is THE CAUSE.

Chicago Dec. 12.-Prospects of big
decrease Of the stock of wheat In chi
cago and Of heavy falling off in the
United States visible supply total made
the wheat market today rapidly ad-
vance. At first. however, the snow
fall over the winter crop belt gave
prices temporary down slant. Then
Offering became scarce. and it was not
long before quotations shot upward,
with cash and December deliveries 60
ing above any previous level this year.
After opening NC off to sc up, the
market rose all the way from l Is to
2hc, compared with Saturday night.
The close was unsettled, M@Ac to
1Hc net higher.
It took but little buying to lift corn.
Rural offerings were light but the
strength was mainly owing to the
wheat bulge. The opening, which
ranged from a shade to NC higher,
was followed by much higher prices all
around
The close was nervous at h@A to
so hc net advance.
Oats climbed with other cereals.
Trade though, lacked volume.
The commission he uses were active
buyers OF provisions, and carried the
market up in almost as quick time as
grain. For the time being the price
of hogs was ignored. IL
