WHEAT UNSETTLED
BY PREM|ER'S REPLY
TO GERMAN OFFER

+ CHICAGO, Dec. 20.-Although still
somewhat unsettled by differences OF
opinion as to the chances Of a peac.
conference being held, the wheat mar.
ket today had virtually returned to a
normal condition Price charges were
for the most part In favor OF the bears,
but the swings as rule confined to or.
binary limits.
Sentiment in favor Of lower prices
seemed to be based chiefly on the
hope, generally admitted to be slender
however. that parley between the
belligerents would yet be brought about
perhaps by means of formal German
offer of disarmament Open prices.
which ranged from a lower to Ia
advance, with May at $1.G4k to
$165al. and July at $l.39h to $140,
were followed by substantial setback
all around and then moderate rally.
Corn sagged with wheat. Besides
the market was bearishly affected by
reports of increasing congestion OF
freight facilities on western railroads.
after opening unchanged to IS higher
the market suffered general decline
10 well below yesterdays finish, brt
nsterward recovered somewhat.
Oats weakened under rather free
rolling from pit raiders. About the
cnlv demand was from shorts.
Provisions were neglected. Finances
In the hog market lifted prices a trifle.

Cambridge Supply Limited.
Reports from Cambridge City are
that industries will require most OF
the labor in that town while last fall,
farmers in Jackson and Center town
ships experience much difficulty in
getting enough help to get their corn
husked.
County Surveyor-elect Howard Hor-
ton anticipated today that between one
hundred and one hundred and fifty
men will be required to work on the
Main street bridge as the contract will
call for completion OF the $4,000
structure within a year.
II one man is granted contracts for
the Main and South G street bridges
it is likely that construction of the
South side bridge will not be started
until fall. This will then require an
extra force Of about fifty men, at least
II perchance, two different men get
the contracts, construction work on
both bridges will probably be started
at the opening of spring thus compli-
eating still more the labor proposition.
Two years will be given for COM
pletion of the South Side structure.
Other Highways Planned.
In addition there is another Nationa.
road Improvement in Center township
known as the Dunbar road Contracts
will be let for this in January or Feb
ruary. At least forty men will be re-
Quired to complete the three miles
before winter weather sets in.

Fargo, N. D., July 31.-The labor

Bands Terrorize Towns.
Armies of from 300 to 500 of the I.

small towns, daring police officials to
arrest them. threatening to overrun
towns which fail to accord them the
usual freedom and causing great un-
easiness to the farmer whose fields
demand immediate attention.

Oranges and Lemons
Health Tablets for
Submarine Creu,

The fact that the only fresh food
that the famous German undersea
liner Deutschland carried on it's re
cent pioneering voyage to America
was oranges and lemons, may have
bearing on some recent experiments
in food values that may change the
diet of the world.
Noted scientists, among them emf
nent Germans, have practically estab
lished the fact that certain food suo
stances called "vitamines' are not
only necessary to life and the proper
development of the body cells, but
also serve to prevent diseases due to
mal-nutrition.
1t has been shown that several OF
the staple foods of today, because of
the modern methods used in prepar.
ing them for the market, are entirely
lacking in vitamines, but that oranges
and lemons are plentifully supplied
with .vitamines of a very hardy type
1t is said oranges and lemons were
chosen for the Deutschland's officers
and crew to balance the diet and sup.
ply the healthful live freshness of
these fruit juices.
Experiments with animals of sever
al kinds have proved that the juices
of certain fresh fruits and vegetables
contain revivifying properties. On
certain diets, lacking the juices the
animals have died. Other animals
about to die for the lack of this pc
culiar substance" have Immediately

The city commission last night in.
structed the secretary to write let
ter to Walter Gossard, owner of the
Bull Dog ferry, informing that he
must run his boat whenever weather
permits, as provided in the franchise
or have it revoked.
! Many complaints have been receiv'
ed recently Of inability to get across
the Missouri river. The cable ferry
has been tied up because of PREACHER
GUS currents and Mr.. Gossard is al
legged to have refused to run when he
could have, by using the landing OF
the cable ferry while he was shut of
from his own by sandbar.

than last year, and extra yield with
chances for good returns, providing
the weather from now on is clear
and not too hot.
Some most interesting facts were
elected from the superintendent, who
is splendidly alive to the work of the
station. l
In the wheat nursery under the
care of Mr. Smith, there are about so
varieties of wheat undergoing classi-
fication and test, while the same is
the case with nearly 100 varieties of
oats and list of 100 different bar
leys. The flax proposition is of in
tense interest because of the need Of
extra fodder in the increase of stock,
and ten different kinds are being test
ed for food producer. The first
crop of alfalfa was cut at the station
late in June and the second is now
ready for harvest. This latter growth
produces the seed that the farmers
are most anxious to secure.
One of the experiments for fodder
comes from a mixture Of timothy and
alfalfa sowing these together, it has
been found that the yield is much
heavier, and especially so with the
timothy, which seems stronger and
thicker-which should be Of great in
terest to the farmer for feed
Supt. Thysall speaks rather dispar-
ingly of the much advertised south
ern folders, sorgum and Soudan
grass. These have not as yet proved
OF much value in the north, and he
does not throw them aside as of no
interest.
No hail of any great extent has
yet visited this section, though we
have had several storms, taking a
few farmers south and others east.
Should we pass this hail season with
out further damage, and with little
more moisture, we have reason to be-
lieve that Stark county will be more
favored than last year, because the
straw is shorter, and the heads are
better filled.

SUPT. THYSAlL SAYS ..
CROP CONDITIONS GOOD

Dickinson, N. D., July 31.-Your
correspondent had the privilege Of
spending an hour with Supt. John c.
Thysall of the Dickinson Experiment
al station this week, and because of
the crop conditions and the general
outlook for the harvest, reports his
findings, which are generally most
encouraging.
The rust question stands foremost
in the minds of grain men and while
there is no alarm in the western part
of North Dakota, yet the fact is ap-
parent that rust has got some hold in
large measure in late grain.
Supt. Thysall reports that the Dur
ham is almost immune from rust and
the Marquis also, but this latter is be-
cause it is an earlier wheat.
Five varieties are not susceptible
