covering.
Sales Of copper metal during the past
few days are estimated as being in excess
of 900 pounds. Copper shares, how
ever so far have shown little DISPOSE
ton to respond. Sentiment Is greatly
mixed in the financial community, but
there appears to be a tendency towards
bearishness. However, long stocks so
far have been dislodged in only a rela-
lively meager volume during periods of
depression. Interests which are usually
identified with prominent swings In the
market are apathetic. and disposed to

policy of making moderate purchases on

DOES WHEAT MAKE MONEY FOR
THE CHRISTIAN CO. FARMERS?

There seems to be an argument as
to whether or not wheat is profitable
crop in Western Kentucky under the
present unfavorable conditions, etc.
81 have interviewed a number of
farmers, large and small, on this sub
iect," says A. M. Casey, and the "gen-
eral opinion is that there is no money
in raising wheat in Western Kentucky.
But, some of the farmers have the
machinery to sow and reap, and are
in the 'habit." Some small farmers
say they raise it to get their flour,
while the flour can be purchased
cheaper than the wheat can be raised
to make it. II costs sl2.00 and over
on an average to grow an acre of
wheat in this county; the average
yield this year is about 8 bushels, this
at s1.00 per bushel is $500 for s
bushels or in other words, $500
gross per acre. The farmer is out
his labor, the plant food required to
produce wheat; wear and tear on ma
chinery and sacks, men, women and
stock. Wheat needs attention at a
time when corn, tobacco, alfalfa,
clover, hay and other profitable crops
need attention. Raising wheat under
the present unfavorable conditions, a
the present price, will in time, ruiz
the farmers who persist in the prac
tice of summer following for wheat
If the land must be broken this sum
liner, sow red clover, crimson clover
Ialfalfa and orchard grass. The Glove
will improve the land, while whea
ldoes not, on the other hand it use'
plant food and makes no returns. q"
