PROFIT-TAKfNG
WEAKENED WHEAT
Early Gains Were Lost-Busi-
ness Was Large-Export
Sales 9,502,012 Bushels

CHICAGO, Dec. 3l.-Heavy protit-tak-
ing weakened the wheat market today
after 1t had shown pronounced strength
in the early trading. Business was quite
large and for a time offerings were rel
ativey limited and buyers ha TO bid
until May reached SIPS and better. Then
sales began to Increase and prices broke.
The cables were firm and foreign status
tics were bullish. These, with the Kansas
state crop export, placing the area there
at S454OO bushels this season. against
a.I50.0O acres in 1914. onc-ifth of which
was abandoned. helped the market early.
December closed at the lowest at SL2Oh,
against sl2iH at the close yesterday.
May only Sc above the bottom at Sl25's
compared with St27as at the end yester-
day. July at Sii7as. sac above the low
est. against Sl.lS5s at the end yesterday.
\ dispatch from Winnipeg called atteu-
ton to the fact that the trade there was
facing steady accumulation OF stocks and
that the outlet was so limited that spec
ulators would have a big load to carry.
As a whole. trade in the cash article wAs
disappointing and export business restrict
ed on account OF tonnage difficulties.
Exports of wheat and flour from the
United states for the week were 9,0520 0ll
bushels against 7iOO.3S2 bushels a year
ago Since July I they amount to 2oi
293Oi7 bushels. compared with 1876 23S
bushels in 1911

are in the ofing, aching to get into
the fray.
Cubs beat cubans yesterday, IS to
1, in joke game.
Two gents have been eliminated
from third base competition with the
White Sox. The UnfOFtUnates are
BrOmwich and Baker. Manager Row
land has made the announcement
that neither will stick. This is some
what a personal disappointment to
the boss, as he was strong for BrOm-
witch, whose work he had watched in
the Three-Eye league.
Neither measured up to the re-
quired standard, either in fielding or
batting. Breton is a far better man
defensiveIy, and at least as good with
the bat. Roth is also being groomed
as a third baseman, getting his bap-
tism yesterday. He had no fielding
chances, so is still an unknown guam
tity.
Though Rowland opines that Rus
sell Blackburne is to be held as a
utility man, there is still a POSSIBLE
ity that the Palmyra youth will come
so strongly that he must be given
regular assignment. In either event
BIackburne will give valuable service.
He is an ideal utility man, as he can
play shOrtstop as well, or peter, than
the majority Of regulars in the Amer
lean league, and has had a year of
regular duty at second base. He
could care for the positions of Ed
die Collins or Weaver in case of in
jury.
Young Ray SchaIk is too earnest in
his work for his own good. Unless
the youngster is toned down in the
exhibition games he is liable to suffer
a serious injury which will affect the
prospects of the team during the
championship season.
He tears into the spring battles as
though he were in a worlds series
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-03-23

and in the meantime teamwork will
suffer, as Ray is one of the leading de-
fensive cogs in the Sox machine.
Sox beat Portland, 10 to 8. Ed COL
Inns, Fetch and Brief each soaked two
hits.
Jimmy Smith, the young shortstop
candidate with Joe TinKer's Whales,
has been repaired and is back in the
battle line. The bump on his head
has entirely healed. Smiths recov-
cry means much to the squad as there
is a strong possibility that the rookie
will have many duties to perform in
the coming season.
Tinker is getting older, in a base
ball sense, and is more susceptible. to
injury. He cannot stand the long
grind of hot pennant fight. Having
a fit relief man for the manager will
increase the effectiveness of the
squad. Smith can easily take care Of
the fielding, being as fast as Johnny
Farrell around the keystone. The big
question is his batting and he has
belted the ball fairly well in practice.
Cold weather is still the order down
at Shreveport. During the afternoons
the Whales can get out on the field
for a workout, but the chill winds in

Faith that saves is not based on
doctrine. creed, or church but ON
Jesus Christ. 1t is not feeling, cere-
mony, experience but just simple
trust in Jesus Christ No, the
strength or weakness OF your faith.
Not how big or how little your faith
but Just Jesus Christ. Salvation is
OF the Lord. "As many as received
Him to them gave He power to be-

stranger and they took him in.
Hungry and they fed him, naked ana
they clothed him, empty and he filled

Salvation from the evil of this life

There are just two things man
