Corn Develops Firmness.

Corn developed firmness as a result
of the readiness with which offerings
were absorbed. At first the market
had a downward slant owing to the
setback in wheat. Opening prices,
which varied from Is to Is lower, were
followed by a rise to slightly above

Buying of oats appeared to be only
of scattered sort. Accordingly the
market had an easy tone.

CHICAGO, April 1o.-Fresh rains over

Roy Brown OF that firm has called the
attention OF the man Of news to n very
far-reaching result of adertising In
this paper. In the latter part of Feb
ruary The Times Dispatch carried
among other ads of Brown & Co. n
small one notifying the public that they
had n nice small farm for sale located
not a great distance from Richmond.
The adj brought bidders right along and
this particular farm was disposed OF in
short order. but the other day there
came another response. and II was all
the way from the other side OF the
earth. The letter was dated Yanghow,
China, March 81, and was written by
gentleman who has been engaged in
business in far a way China for several
years. and is now thinking of returning

down in Virginia He clipped from the
columns OF The Times Dispatch the adj
vertisement of the farm above referred
to. and inclosing 1t to Brown & Co,
wrote them of his purpose. He said he
supposed they had sold that particular
farm before they would receive his let
ter. but doubtless they had, or would
have, others OF the same kind and as
faorably situated. and asked for infor-
nation on the subject. The lettor was
promptly replied to, and doubtless
Brown & Co. will sell a Virginia farm
for money made In China, and all be-
cause they advertised in a paper with
a world wide circulation.

Great as is the demand in the city for

the country demand. because in the
city the demand comes largely through
people. and people are not so exigent

Things will not; things. therefore, are
