Boosting Prices.

CHICAGO. September b.-Bullish esti-
mates Of the yield. both in the United
States and in Canada, had a decidedly
Strengthening effect on the wheat mar
ket here today. One authority figured
that the crop in the United States was
25.00o.o0 bushels under bread and seed
requirements. The settlement Of the
railway strike continued also to favor
the buying side. Opening prices, which
ranged from ~ to I cents higher, with
December at 1.49h to 1.61 and May at
1.61 to 1.52h. were followed by slight
reaction. but then a rally to nearly the
top initial values.
Corn hardened with wheat. Rains
failed to act as an Offset. After opening
unchanged to y higher, the market
scored some gains all around.
Oats showed Independent hrmness.
Hope Of export business appeared to De
the governing influence.

sions. There was no pressure to sell.

WHEAT PRICES FORCED UP
Heavy Buying in Chicago Cause
Advance to 1917.

CHICAGO. September 5.-Heavy buy
ing on the part Of some Of the largest
houses on change forced the value of
wheat sharply higher today. In some
cases the advance amounted to 6h
cents a bushel. the September delivery
touching 1b1h, as against 145 at the
close on Saturday.
Although the settlement of the rail-
way strike was partly responsible, at
tention chiefly centered on a state
ment by a leading expert that the con-
harvest was the lowest ever known.
According to another authority, the
1916 crop in the United States was 25.-
100000 bushels under bread and seed
requirements and allowed no surplus
for export

Prof. Bear, Of Morgantown. stated
at the meeting at Woodblne farm last
Friday that the field now growing al
falfa had 2.S5 per cent OF potash in
the flrst six inches Of the surface. In
other words. that It contained nearly
one per cent more potash than a
2-S-2 goods. He said that 1t had pot
ash enough in It to grow maximum
crops for ten thousand years and that
by growing clover every five years
the necessary nitrogen supply could
be maintained but that phosphorus
was needed and must be supplied.
This soil being a heavy clay is not
much different from thousands Of
acres in Harrison county and from
this analysis the farmers may take a
hint as TO what their soils need.
