CHICAGO, March 14-Wheat gained
70 for May and "a for July futures
was little wanted for export demand
and reports of the condition of the
winter crop were highly favorable.
The government report on wheat re-
serves, issued after the market closed
last Saturday was the factor that up
held prices all week Traders ex
pected the official figures to show
much more wheat on the farms and
there was sharp upward movement
in consequence when the market
opened Monday morning Light re-
ceipts at the northwestern primary
markets was another encouraging
feature from the bull viewpoint.
Corn advanced ia for May and
is for July. for about the same rea-
son that was behind the strength in
wheat On Monday the government
report on s>serves was given some
what bearish Interpretation, but corn
traders later took the view that the
east would soon be demanding more
supplies, and prices advanced on that
theory.
Oats declined 20 to u because the
official report on reserves was con-
strued as distinctly bearnsh. Only
the display OF strength in corn all
week, prevented real break in oats
prices.
| Provisions closed the week with
prices little changed, the average be-
ing about five cents below last
weeks closing prices.
Provision futures moved largely in
sympathy with the hog market ali

THE FOLLY OF Discomfort
Vain Longing and Aspirations, as
This Little Fable Shows, Are
Things of Moment.

A fashionable woman, coming from
the opera, in the rosy nest OF llmou-
sine, passed a group of laborers at
midnight Machines, like terrible ami
mails, were burrowing into the earth.
Steam was kissing, as if from the
mouths of a million serpents> Rocks
flew in every direction. TCrchlights
danced There was the thunder of la
Dor. The night shift was in full
swing.
And the woman, glancing from the
window at a certain workman, for an
instant thought:
How | wish had that brawny la
borers strength and joy of life! How
l envy him his power, his physical
perfection, the wonder of his man
hood, his freedom from the shackles
that bind me. He is his own master,
while / am a slave-the slave Of a
man l despise!"
At that moment the laOorer paused
long enough by the deep chasm where
his engine rocked, to glance INTO the
motor as it sped by him. And he
thought:
"Oh, to be like her! To know leis-
sure and wealth and rest! To be free
from drudgery and toll, to come and
go as l pleased! To throw Of the
chains of debt and worry, and have
the days and nights stretch ahead of

was gone. The torchlights iared
brighter than ever. And each had

Plan Approved by the Board of

College Park, Md.-At a meeting of
the board of trustees Of the Maryland
Agricultural College, held here, the
plan for commission or directorate
form of administration for the insti
tuition as presented at its last meeting
by President H. ]. Patterson, was ap-
proved by the board on the recon-
mendation of its executive commit
tee. Mr.. Patterson will be retained
as president of the college until the
plan for directorate is perfected,
with the understanding that he will,
with the approval of the executive
committee, have the authority to
work out the details of the director
ate form of administration and ulti-
mately be appointed chairman or pres
ident of the directorate.
The executive committee, through
Mr.. H. H. Holzapfe1, of Hagerstown,
its chairman, made the following state
ment regarding its action:
I'VE have endeavored to make 8
study of this proposition with a view
to seeing how this form of admin
istration would affect the various in
terests which the institution aims to
serve, and have gotten the attitude
and opinion of individuals and farm
ers' organizations to as great an ex-
tent as possible. Our recommends
tons were based on what we believe
will be best, not only for the present,
but also for the future, of the Agri
cultural College"

LITTLE CHANGE IN MANKIND
Scientists of Opinion That Dispersion
and Separation of Races Was
Not Rapid Process.

Though it is conceivable that man
kind may have spread from a common
center over the entire earth In a few
thousand years. Prof. Arthur Keith, in
a Birmingham university lecture, has
pointed out that the discoveries of the
last % years clearly indicate that the
dispersion and separation into widely
separated races has not been a rapid
process.
The inhabitants of the lower Nile
valley, though immigrants have ar
rived among them, show clearly per-
sistence Of the old types for 5000
years. The permanence of human
types has been also shown in Amer
lea, and human skeleton of Yansing,
Kan, found at a depth of % feet in
glacial deposit, probably dates back
10000 years.
The men Of England of 5000 years
ago had the modern stature, with the
form of head and strength of muscle
OF many men of today. Professor Keith
declared that his audiences had rep

Comptroller Harrington and State
Treasurer Vandiver sat with the State
Tax Commission, as board of ap-
peals, to decide number of appeals
from corporations. from the assess
ments made by former Tax Commits
sioner Buchanan Schley.
Under the old law appeals from the
valuations made by the Tax Commits
sioner were to the Commissioner, the
Comptroller and the Treasurer, sitting
together as board of appeals. The
law which created the Tax Commission
in place of the single Commissioner is
ambiguous as to whether this board
of appeals is still In existence or
whether the appeals are to the COM
mission alone. AS to the old cases.
however, the former practice was
