FAIRFIELD SELECTS
OTTUMWA NURSE

Fairfield, April 6.-At meeting of
the city school board held last week
it was decided to secure school
nurse for the month of April. She will
be paid as are the teachers and will
serve the same hours unless necessity
makes other demands. Miss Madge
Baldwin Of Ottumwa has been secured
for the position. Miss Paldwin Is well
known in Fairfield having served as
day supervisor at the Jefferson county
hospital.
The action was taken because so
many parents had expressed them
selves as interested in precautions to
prevent any contagion in the schools.
The schools were opened today as
planned and the new system will be
given a tryout during this month.
Only about two hundred school child.
rem have thus far followed the sugges-
ton to be vaccinated. This Is very
small proportion. Compulsory vaccina-
ton is not looked upon with favor by
some parents and 1t was therefore
thought best to secure the nurse.

WHEAT CONTINUES
DOWNWARD MOVE
ALL REPORTS AND INDICATIONS
ARE FOUND TO HAVE VERY
BEARISH ASPECT.

Chicago, April 6.-Wheat eased off
today owing to large receipts north
west, lower cables and prospects that
the government crop report tomorrow
would be bearish. Commission house
selling was general until the market
encountered some resting orders to
buy at decline. Prices opened u to
y lower and made slight further sag
before showing any signs Of rally.
Foreign statistics favored the bear
side, a condition the reverse Of what
was looked for. Prices closed easy " a
u to &c net lower.
offerings Of corn were quickly alb
sorbed Removal of import duties by
Portugal and Missouri reports that
stocks in farmers hands were less than
third of the total year ago tended
to encourage the bulls. Quotations
which at the outset were IL to u up
advanced gradually all around. Wet
weather certain to cause further delay
to seeding, put firmness into oats
Trade, however, was light.
Extensive covering by shorts led to
la decided bulge. The close was unset
tied at ss to 1z@5s net advance.
Provisions weakened with hogs.
First sales ranged from shade to &c
lower but the market later reacted.

any they did not believe that the corn
can be brought here in time for such
delivery. They gave it out that they
are in shape to take all the corn deliv-
cred next month. But they do not ex-
pect that they will have to take much.
The bears said that with the large
local supplies here and Argentina corn
likely to come here, it made the weak
est situation known for years. They
claim that there is little demand for

bearish, and increased their short sales
