SCARCITY IN WHEAT
Grain Men Think Supply VIII BE En-
nausted Before New crop Arrives.

Portland, Ore.,-Grain men estimate
hat al The present rate uIat wheat is
being shipped, supplies in the Pacific
Northwest will be exhausted long be-
lore the new crop arrives. Based on
The foreign tonnage engaged for load
ing up to February |, and the prob
abe requirements OF the coast, the
surplus over the increased home seed
and feed consumption will be used up
and allow nothing Tor spring business
with Europe or the orient. For this
reason Spectators are very firm in
their ideas and no one is disposed to
make price concessions nov, eve with
he Chicago and Liverpool markets
lower.
There have been yefy few offers to
sell wheat on the exchange in the last
lew days and dealers say II is almost
impossible TO buy in the country.
A feature OF the barley market is
The buying back by farmers OF grain
for seeding at a considerable premium
over what they sold the barley for.
Oats are holding steady in spite OF
the decreased trade.
Fresh inquiries for flour are report
ed from England and France. Mill
feed is held al firm rates.

4 TON PER MAN

For every man killed In battle one
ton of cannon balls is required. AL
though this was an old theory in the
days of the fintlocks and muzzle
leaders, it is a known fact today. Gen
eral Rohne, of the German army, has
proved this to be true by a careful
study of statistics on the battle of
Kiao-Chow, which preceded the siege
of Port Arthur during the Russo
Japanese a
In this attic the Russians killed
were 1875 officers and mel. The
Japanese loss numbered 4204 officers
and men. The Japanese discharged
40.150 cannon shots and 1900, 900
rifle cartridges, while the Russian
forces fired 1856, 900 rifle cartridges
and 1880 annon shots
Eighteen per cent of the losses
were caused by artillery and so per
cen by small arms . According 10
General Rohne, it took 105 cannon
shots, or 1890 rife cartridges to kill
each Russian The cannon balls used
by the Japanese had an average
weight of LAP pounds 5 ounces, al d
the rife cartridges discharged by
them weighed 1862 grains. Therefore.
il appears that about 2200 pounds %
steel and lead in the form of cannon
balls, or seven pounds in the form of
cartridges, was required to kill eaci
Russian lost in that battle.

Rankin listened with respect and

This was the answer returned by
the captain of a fishing steamer to the

deny that it was a heartless answer.
but 1t is an answer that is being con-
stantly given in all relations of life.
says the Portland (Ore) Journal. All
around pilot boats are on the rocks
or suffering pain. but the fishing boat
sails by unheeding because 1t has fish
aboard and has not time to stop and
throw out a towline. How many fish
ing boats there are that refuse a word
OF kindness and counsel, a friendly
hand, smile of encouragement. How
many fishing boats there are that are
blind, deaf or Indifferent to the hopes,
aspirations and struggles Of those who
are on the rocks!

Having performed this sacred rite

hopes of you-thought you were going
to be president of the United States,
or something like that"
Rankin bowed impassively; he did
not deny it.

deepest of reproach, you've disappoint-

nothing but butler. You ought to be

WONDROUS CHARM IN WOODS
Traveller Writes Of Peculiar Charac-

lands "Forests."

Returning to these woods, I am
struck once more by the peculiar
character of their romance, says a
writer in Scribner's Magazine. 1t is
SO different from that OF a German
forest. where the imagination is iured
and lost in the depth Of thickets and
bafled by the endless lines Of serried
trunks. brooded over by the canopy
of dark. high blush ar boughs, inter
woven solid.
The poetry Of these Irish woods
and not merely from resemblance
they certainly bear to the Pinetas OF
Italy-is southern, or perhaps Celtic

urged his firm athletic frame through

was evident enough that he had no in

not gainsay him. Wallace had his

intense curiosity TO see the rich cos

craning of necks, and at last some of

the extreme back of the church and

a good view.
The clergyman who was in the
chancel ready 10 conduct the service

dignity. but in haste and anger. he
