Grain Review

Fresh strength showed itself In the
wheat market today chiefly as result
of bullish cables. Stocks in Great Bfl-
tain continued to shrink and there were
predictions of liberal buying to pro-
vide for winter requirements. Lessen
ing Of domestic receipts in the north
west tended also to favor the bulls.
Opening prices, which ranged from ssc
off to hc UP. with December at $1.O4A
to $1.O5h and May at $1.O6A a II, were
followed by material advance All
around, which, however, was not NAM
tanned.
Reports that the country milling de-
mand at Minneapolis was the largest
ever known anG that MINNEAPOLIS was
shipping wheat all rail to Philadelphla
helped later to turn quotations upgrade.
Prices closed nervous, to lbc net
higher, with December at $1.O6B and
May at $1.07h.
Coutry selling weakened corn. Inc
bulge in wheat led only temporary
rally. After opening a shade to rs G
lower the. market reacted little, put
then again sagged.
Clear, cold weather and prospects or
an immediate big movement OF new
corn from Central Illinois kept prices
from any decided upturn. The market
closed steady &c off to shade up.
Buying by spectators gave relative
firmness to oats. The demand was not
aggressive.
Provisions declined with hogs. Longs
showed a disposition to iquidate.

Continued From Page 1o

Milan, Nov. 15.-An account of the
recent fighting before Babuna pass in
southern Serbia is forwarded by war
correspondent OF the Corriere Della
Sera. The Bulgarians, he says, were
10000 strong, the Serbians 5000.
No serious resistance being possible
for the Serbians on open ground, they
fell back from Veles and Isvor and
set up defense where the road mar
rows near Abdi Pasa, at an elevation
Of 1000 feet.
The Serbs were hard pressed and
for a time it seemed as though they
must give way, which would have
meant the loss not only of the army
but Of Monastfr.
However, the Serbian commander,
Colonel Vassic, permitted the Bulgar
ians to advance as far as the Perlepe
road and then fell on them with all
his forces, smashing through their
first and second lines with the bayo
net and driving the Bulgarians beyond

GRAIN sHR|NKACE
IS FARM PROBLEM
ILLINOIS AGRICULTURAL Elk.
PERTS PRESENT RESULT OF
THEIR EXPERIMENTS.

Urbana, ILL.,, Nov. 15-"When Is the
best time to sell my crop? Will
make more by holding my grain, ex.
pecting later price which will more
than compensate for the shrinkage
which will occur during the interven-
ing period. or will 1t be more profit
able to sell my corn from the field
and my small grain from the thresh-
ing machine?" These are the constant.
ly appearing questions that w. L. Bur.
lison and O. M. Allyn of the corn pro.
duction division Of the University OF
Illinois have discussed in pamphlet
known as bulletin No 1873. that will
be issued this week from the Illinois
agricultural experiment station.
In the handling Of farm grain, es.
pecially corn, shrinkage plays an i'm.
portant role and the shrinkage factor
should always be considered when the
producer is holding his grains for
higher prices, according to the bulle.
tin.
The facts relating to the problem
as far as they are available, have been
collected and the conclusions drawn
are based upon sound reasoning and
upon scientific data covering series
of years. the bulletin states.
Following Is a statement of the con
illusions Of Messrs. Burlison and
Allyn:
prices of farm crops in general are
regulated by commercial market quo
tations, which in turn are governed
by supply and demand.
"The inchease in prices OF crops
within the last few decades has not
been so great as many people nave
believed BY comparing the average
prices for the fifteen years preceding
the financial crisis of 1894 to 1893
with the average prices for the fifteen
years succeeding this period, 1t Will
be seen that the average increase mas
been only 90 cents per bushel TOT
corn and 6.5 cents for oats. while the
average price for wheat has not IN
creased. The price for barley mas
tended to decrease, while the price for
rye has increased about the same as
that for corn.
"In general for the last thirty years
the times of lowest average price for
corn, wheat and oats correspond close
ly to the times Of largest average re.
ceipts. Except during the summer
months, the same is true for rye and
also for barley during the last ten
years.
"shrinkage is one of the most i'm
portant factors to be taken into con-
sideration in holding corn for higher
prices. The total shrinkage during
the year is more than fifteen per cent.
Taking November as a base, the data
show that there is no month for
which the price increases sufficiently
to compensate for shrinkage. If Jan
uary or February is taken as base,
then the increase in price, up to, but
not including, October, more than
compensates for shrinkage alone.
mot so much is known Of the
shrinkage of wheat and oats as Of
corn. It may be said that they shrink
comparatively little after they have
gone thoroughly through the sweat. 1t
would seem profitable, so far as
shrinkage alone is concerned. to hold
small grain until the time Of highest
prices"

PAGE HUNTS FACTS,

Washington, D. G., Nov. 15.--Am-

The Italian government, according
to Mr.. Page, is having considerable
difficulty establishing just what oc.
Cured when the vessel went down.
1t appeared today that in order to
obtain officially such information as
