Chicago, Sept. 7-Despite rush OF
buying orders and consequent ne"
upturn in prices. the wheat market to-
day was by no means one sided. Pre-
dictious that the government report
would enlarge the estimate OF the
spring crop seemed to handicap the
bulls It was said the report would
not take into consideration the damage
done this week. The opening, which
ranged from Y to 2k cents higher,
with December at 1.o6k to 1857,
and May at 1881 to Ito. were followed
by only slight further gain before
reaction began that carried the market
well below yesterdays close.
The close was unsettled at Is TO u
cents net decline, with December at
l.O5M and May at 1868.
Corn.
Corn showed strength on predictions
of freezing weather. After opening
Ii off to q higher, the market steadied
at a moderate general advance.
The close was steady, unchanged to
"a cent higher.
Oats reflected the action Of corn.
Buying was chiefly in small lots.
Provisions.
Hog prices, higher than at any time
in a year, gave a lift to provisions.
The January options were in especial
demand

THE SAME OLD WEAPON.

The St. Louis Globe-Democrat

editorial on Estate Finances, !"
and using such facts therein as
suited the fancy Of the partisan
editorial writer succeeded in its
purpose and gave it's readers
about as much of an idea OF the
true condition of the finances OF
the state as one might gain from
a patent medicine advertisement,
and when called to task by Sec
retary of State Cornelius Roach,
(whose letter appears in another
column) it has the temerity to
attempt to defend it's position in
the face of the official statement
of the State Treasurer.
Long ago official G. 0. P. or
gan in Missouri adopted misrep-
resentation as it's chief political
weapon and with their character
istic hen mindedness the country
press with stand pat proclivities
have followed in it's footsteps,
apparently blind to the fact that
the taxpayers of Missouri are not
all ignoramuses and that ninety
per cent of the taxpayers are
probably better posted upon pub
lie affairs than the political hack

gence by their painful regularity

Bates County Fair.

The Bates County Fair Asso-
citation takes great pleasure in
announcing to the public that the
entire Indebtedness Of the Asso-
citation has been paid off and
that the Association starts off
this year under the most favor
able conditions in the history Of
the Association.
Through the liberality of the
Butler Commercial Club and the
pnblic spirited business men of
Butler and surrounding country,
the Association has been placed
upon it's feet, and the final ar
rangements for the beginning of
the eleventh annual fair are now
being made under conditions ia
vorable to the biggest and best
fair ever held in Bates county.
Eleven years ago the Associa-
tion started out with 100000 in
debtedness which has always
hung over the Association to
more or less extent.
Unfavorable weather last year
made matters worse.
The generous donations Of the
ones holding premiums against
the Association, and the liberal
contributions and support Of the
loyal citizens of the county, show
beyond doubt, that the people
are interested in the success Of
the Bates County Fair.
The present management OF
the Association desire to express
their thanks and appreciatio n to
the citizens Of Bates county as a
whole and the Commercial Club
and business men of Butler in
particular for the assistance

St. Louis, Mo-,
Dear SIR
Your editorial in today's is
sue on estate Finances is a
typical illustration Of making a
Misrepresentation by telling but
part Of the truth.
You quote from the State
Treasurer's last biennial report,
concerning the affairs Of this de-
partment, but you do not quote
all that report says on this sub
iect. In order to assume the dig
nifty of metropolitan journalism,
craftsmanship Of statewide pro-
portions would have impelled
you to say that the State Treas
urer's report, discussing the
statement that you quoted, also
said:
1T should be borne in mind
that in the foregoing re-
ceipts (Which your editorial
gave) funds collected by
this department for registra-
tion of motor vehicles and of
corporations are not includ-
ed. =. The gross collections
by the Secretary Of State

"PENNY LUNCHES"

TT has been suggested that there is
need in some districts of Harris

successfully in New York city. There

result Of industrial conditions, and it
is beyond doubt that many children
are not properly nourished as a result
of necessary economies in the house.

homes where the mother must he
away during the noon hour and where
the children leave the warm school
room for a cold house and cold
lunch, or no lunch.
Our course of school study is de-
signed for sturdy, normal children,
We cannot expect ill-fed, poorly nour-
ished pupils to live up to the reuuire-
ments or do themselves full justice any
more than we would expect a half
starved teacher to do the work of one
who ate her full three meals a day.
The need for some system of cheap
lunches here is not general. but It
would seem to exist in some localities
to which it is scarcely necessary to
draw the attention of those familiar
with the geography of the city 1t is
said that the school board hesitates TO
take up the matter because as yet it
Is in an experimental stage. That is
a question, but at all events the local
school authorities have displayed
marked ability in the Inauguration of
progressive methods and there is no
reason to suppose they would fail In
this.

would seem no more than logical to do
the same for children who are in peril
of disease by reason OF lack of nourish-
ment. At all events the subject is
worthy of serious consideration.

THE QUINTEssENCE OF DETAIL

THE duties which the Public
Service Commissioners were
= called upon to perform this
week are illustrative of the
enormous amount of detailed work
and unimportant matters which the
act of 1913 unloaded on the body.
Three days were occupied by the
commission in hearing the case in

delphia Electric Company, PROPOSE
tion involving millions on millions,

sessed valuation of real estate in

Part of the time was devoted to hear
,ings for relief of communities suffer-
hing from water rates not in accord
with their ideas of reasonableness.
and other big questions underlaid
still other complaints in process of
ihearing.
And in the midst of this important
work, not only affecting enormous in
vestments, but precedents which may
stand as law, the commission was
called upon to pass upon q dozen or
more agreements for joint use of
Telephone and electric light poles and
to discuss and dispose of minor mat
tiers and crank complaints. taking up
valuable time and costing the State
money.
The body is not only laden with
detail that the trainers of the act
probably never intended, but is the
target for the letters of folks who
have fancied grievances and some
whose conception of the purposes of
the creation of the commission is
about as extended as the knowledge
of the orbit of Neptune possessed by
Va blue heron.

DOING OUR PART

-ARRISBURG is responding nobly
to the effort that is being put
forth in America toward saving
the women and children of war
stricken Europe. We in this country
have done much to alleviate the suf-
fering abroad, but agents of charitable
associations in this country returning
from relief trips say that we have only
begun.
The local relief committee will on
Monday send out 1000 men and
women to begin a canvass of Harris
burg to collect funds for the purpose
of carrying on its splendid foreign and
home relief work, for a feature of the
Harrisburg committees efforts is that
those of our own people who need as
sistance shall be given it by permitting
them to earn wages in the preparation
of garments and other supplies to be
sent abroad. Thus all the money do
mated to the committee is spent at
home, our own poor greatly benefited
and our duty done by those who are
suffering as result of the war.
Everybody who can give should do
so. Think what it would mean if every
person in Harrisburg donated a dime
to this fund.

Streets and Public improvements. is
exceptionally busy, but in all his pro-
gram it is doubtful If any one work
will meet with more general approval
than the contemplated improvement
of the sewage system in the business
district.
For years this section, one of the
most important in the city, has been
served by sewers that have been not
only inadequate but long since out
of date. Is it not remarkable that
the present drain should have been
in the ground so long that the record
of the time of its construction is
actually lost in the dust of the years
And this of Harrisburg, which has
boasted of its splendid streets and
modern sewer system!
The superintendent OF Streets and
Public improvements is deserving OF
all possible commentator for his
proposed step toward making still
more sanitary, healthful and beauti-
full Harrisburg.
More power to you, Mr.. Lynch!

4 FORGERS' TRUST

" OLONEL HUTCHISONS belief
that Harrisburg has been in
- cluded in the operations of the
nationwide forgers' trust just
unearthed by the New York police,
should cause every business man of
the city to think twice before cashing
a check, of the genuineness of which
he is not certain.
No customer ought to feel embar-
rassed if the merchant to whom he
tenders his personal check insists upon
ascertainng that it will be recog-
niZcd when presented at bank. A
check without funds to back it is
merely so much paper. 1t is the de-
positor's name at the bottom which
carries the weight. If the man to
whom a check is rendered does not
know the signer, and the signer can
produce nobody to vouch for him,
there certainly should be no reason
why he should be offended if the
check is refused. Millions of dollars
have been lost by the acceptance of
forged or bogus checks and the mere
fact that a combination for mutual
profit and protection has been formed
by the professional forgers of the
country ought to be sufficient excuse
for a little closer scrutiny of sigma
lures.

OF COMMERCE has taken an
i absolutely correct position in
warning its members and the
people of the city at large against in
vestments in real estate concerning
the merits of which they have only
the word of the promoters.
The Telegraph knows nothing about
the merits of the case at issue. but it
is always safe advice to suggest that
money could be invested here at home
quite as safely as elsewhere and that
the prospective purchaser is taking a
risk when he puts his capital into
land, the exact location and future
prospects of which he is in ignorance.
The Chamber of Commerce has for
its object not only the promotion of
Harrisburg and its advancement in a
commercial and industrial way, but
the protection of its members and 9TH
ers who may have money at their dis
posal. 1t is, therefore, altogether
within the scope of it's legitimate op-
erations to take such action as it did
in this instance.

A Sure Way To
End Dandruff

There is one sure way that has never
failed to remove dandruff at once and
that is to dissolve it, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, just get about
four ounces of plain, common liquid
arvon from any drug store (this is all
you will need), apply ii at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
BY morning, most If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve, and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no matter
how much dandruff you may have.
You will find all itching and digging
of the scalp will stop instantly and
your hair will be fluffy. lustrous, CLOS
sy, silky and soft. and look and feel
a hundred times better
