Wheat-While there is not much

nounced strength, based upon the be-
lief that export operations will be car

anxious to take on holdings where
there is no immediate prospect for Sc
curing clearance or foreign delivery.
Wheat touched the dollar mark To-
cally this week for the first time in
many months, when bluestem quota
tons were put to that figure, but there
is a wide disparity down to export
grades, club being quoted at 90c, with
forty-fold Ole, indicating the influence
of the millers in the market. Re-
ceipts at tidewater are holding light,
incident to the small sales at county
warehouses.
Flour-The flour market, so far as
export is concerned, continues unset
tied, because of the difficulty in book
ing space for deliveries, and contracts
are restricted in consequence. The
price continues to respond to the
strength in wheat, and is holding al
the $4 mark for club straights, with
bluestem cut-offs up to $4.20. There
are further advances in patents, which
job at a range of 1918 to $5.35 for
standard makes.
Feed-An grains are influenced by
the up turn in the wheat market.
Oats are again advanced, going to $25
@26, while barley is up to $22@23.
Millstuffs r unchanged and hay
holds steady, though the curtailment
OF the crop by dry weather, imparts
more irmness to the situation.

Apples-Tbe apple movement in To-

pronounced but values are holding
about the same as for the past couple
of weeks. The quality is good and
demand is also good.
Other Fruits-Lemons receded this
week from the high levels attained
last week and are quoted at S9.50@10

also cheaper this week, having
dropped from $1.25@1.75 to 85c@$1.5 so.

California grapes are easier at $1.25

Washington grapes are now in the

at $3.50 per sack and beans are out
of the market. Squash is now on the
market and jobbing at soc per box,
with the summer variety at 1hc per
pound. Pumpkin is also in and of
fered at 60c per dozen.
Grain, Flour and Feed.
Wheat-Advices that the war in
Europe would likely be of long dura-
ton and the clearing to a considerable
extent of the obstacles preventing the
expectation of this commodity, has
caused a sharp advance in wheat
prices during the week. The exhaust
ing of old crop supplies in milling
hands thereby putting them in the
market for new crop stock has also
been a factor in the situation tending
to enhance values. Another factor to
be taken into account is the apparent
inclination on the part of the growers
to hold onto their grain in anticipation
OF further advances. In view of these
conditions it is hard to place values,
but at the moment the quotations are
90kc for bluestem, sic for club and
for red Russian.
Flour-The conditions in the wheat
market may also to a certain extent
be reflected in flour values, as ad-
vances in wheat necessarily cut down
the margins on flour, and unless mill
ers advance the price they stand to
have their profits cut down. In the
local market some of the mills adj
vanced the price of flour zoe per bar
rel last Friday, and while there is ap-
parently some reason for this ad-
vance, it was not general as some
brands remained at the former quota
tons of $500 for firsts and $4.65 for
seconds.
Feed-There has been an advance
nearly all along the line in feed
prices. Under the revised schedule
the following figures are given: Tim
othy hay, SIG; bran, $23; bran and
shorts, $24; shorts, $32; feed wheat,
$31; barley, $24; rolled barley, $25;

Movement.

Both the Republicans and the
Progresslves are for the correction OF
abuses and the suppression of evils
in interstate trade. They stand side
by side for justice and fair play. They
are on the same ground in their oppo-
sihon to abuses OF power by great
companies. But they also believe I'm
applying common sense to the solu-
ton of such problems. They would
regulate business without strangling
II and strive for justice without de-
stroying industries entirely legiti-
mate in themselves or hindering and
obstructing commerce and making the
country's progress harder and less ade-
quate to the needs Of the American
people.
And both Progressives and Re
publicans believe in a vigorous for
eign policy marked by clear-headed
understanding Of American rights and
American opportunities. They are
alike in their condemnation of uncer-
tain. hesitating and timid handling of
grave questions involving International
obligations and American interests.
They are of the same mind in respect
to lecture-platform diplomacy and the
undermining and weakening of the
diplomatic service of the nation TO
pay Mr.. Bryan's political debts or re-
ward his personal favorites.
On such vital issues there Is no dit
ference between the Republicans and
the Progressives. They find much
to bring them together. nothing TO
keep them apart when they consider
these great questions of the day. The
wider and higher their outlook the
less reason they perceive for delaying
union or permitting the outcome OF
the "get-together" movement to re-

To Control Tobacco cutworms.

To Control Tobacco CutWorms.
Much Of the loss annually borne By
many OF the tobacco growers OF Wis
consin is caused by the ordinary cut
worm that destroys the young plants
just after they are transplanted to the
fields. These pests are particularly
troublesome when, In the rotation,
tobacco follows clover or any other
sod crop. At first small. grayish or
brownish black worms appear. and
either bite on the young plants or
feed upon their leaves. Later these
worms develop into medium-sized.
dingy-colored moths that fly around at
night and lay their eggs on the grow
ing plants.
Fall blowing of all land intended for
tobacco will go long way toward
controlling the cutworm, according to
James johnson of the college OF agri.
culture. University OF Wisconsin, who
is the author OF the bulletin Control
OF Diseases and Insects OF Tobacco"
Should the pests appear in the
spring Mr.. Johnson has found that
they can be killed OF by scattering
poisoned bait over the field two days

poisoned bait may be made OF green
clover sprayed with paris green, and

Moving pictures In schools.

Use OF the moving picture and ste
reopticon machines in schools to aid
class work and to develop community
spirit by night exhibitions is growing
all over Wisconsin, according to a
survey just completed by the bureau
OF visual instruction of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin extension division.
Already $50 stereopticons and 10 mo-
ton picture machines are in use in
schools in the state, and over 80
schools are negotiating for the pur-
chase Of motion picture machines. Il
is believed that probably so will be
installed before Christmas
The survey shows. however. that
very few Of the schools are provided
with sufficient lantern slides to make
the machines useful, as the average
number of slides to each stereopticon
Is only 4S. But the demand for slides
for lecture purposes and for films is
very great One hundred and twelve
schools have asked for the regular
slide service from the bureau, and
to meet the demand the bureau now

Grafton less than five months.
1t is devising a system whereby
may schools In the state will receive
lecture and film outfits each during
the next school year These outfits
are all routed on regular schedule,
by means OF which the cost to the
school is inconsiderable.
This service will not compete with
the regular motion picture shows"
said William H. Dudley, chief OF the
the new bureau. but it will stimulate
them to put on better films. From a
commercial standpoint 1t will really
help by getting more people interest
ed in motion pictures. The propri-
etors OF the pict4ce shows realize this
and are giving the schools hearty CO.
operation in almost every place where
the work is started.
