Heat Between the Planets.

II there is any exchange of heat be-
tween the planets, no human device
can measure it, for the bolometer can
not be increased in its delicacy suffi-
Gent to detect the minute amount.
Thai is, the platinum wire-the nerve
more sensitive than human nerves,
cannot be made any thinner and hold
together in use. No influence of the
planets upon each other has even
been detected by the most accomplish
ed observers with the most sensitive
instruments that can be made, be-
sides two, gravitation and light It
must be that heat from the sun to the
planets is absorbed by them, since
none comes to the earth by reflection
intense enough to be measured by an
electric nerve thinner than a spiders
thread.-New York American.

WAGNER'S REVIEW
Morning Grain Letter.

Chicago, June 15.-The weekly
weather forecast is for cool weather
with some rains. Weather over the
eek-end has been cool everywhere
except in Tennessee, Nebraska, Mis-
souri, and a few southern points. To
June Is the temperatures OF Canada
and the northwest have been excellent
for wheat raising. In IS hours to !
p. IN. Sunday heavy rains fell over
North Dakota, Iowa, Missouri and Ne
braska- Weather conditions are two
sided as TO oats and December corn.
July corn is considered TO be in a
strong bull position, owing to small
supplies. Wheat should display a
little strength. Declines should be
small, and pressure by bears Is due to
lessen radically for a moment. Ant
werp letter indicates that wheat losses
in Hungary, Italy and France are very
large. Between June II and 80 there
is usually waiting spell in wheat. The
entire world goes slow on the news
from spring wheat territories.
A liberal wheat decrease is due to-
little Trade in July corn promises
to dwindle. ana September ana Deem
Der should become the active months.
Bulges are due in December corn, but
until there is another hot spell would
not follow. Would sell on rallies. Fos-
ter expects the dry spots IN central
west and southwest will continue dry.
Showers and thunderstorms should in
crease June 16 to %. Old wheat is
passing into consumption swiftly and
the first run OF new wheat will be alb
sorbei easily. These, however, are sub
sidiary factors TO spring wheat crop
progress.
