sympathy with wheat Fresh ship

ADDRESS CAUSES A /
DROP IN PRICES

Chicago. Feb. 2s.-Lloyd Georges
speech emphasizing the gravity of the
shortage of vessels needed to carry
foodstuffs to Great Britain had a
distinctly bearish effect today on the
wheat market here. Depression, which
became manifest as soon as trading
opened, was at no time overcome,
and the close was unsettled, 7-8 to
1-2 cents net lower, with May at
$1.76 Ia to 3-S and July at $1.49 SIS
to 8-4. Corn lost 1865 to 3-4
and oats 88 to S-4 cents. In pro-
visions the outcome. ranged from 80
cents decline to q rise of cents.
Adverse crop reports from the
southwest which gave basis at
times for moderate rallies in the
wheat market failed to act as a
Testing or by any means complete off,
set in favor Of the bulls.
Corn was affected though to a less
degree by the same conditions which
ruled the wheat market. Oats de-
clined with other cereals.
Lack Of support was evident in the
provision market except for lard.
The staple scored an advance on buy
ing which was ascribed in the main
to packers.

MINNEAPOLIS WHEAT

Minneapolis. Feb. 24.-May wheat
2 $50 higher, July wheat S-Sc high
er. Compared with yesterdays closing
figures
The wheat market has ruled firm
all day with final quotations at prac-
tically high marks Of the day.
The international situation showed
no change and there were no new de-
velopments in the submarine compli-
cations. The car situation was said to
be little improved but 1t will take
some time to relieve the congestion
now existing. The southwest reported
no relief from the drought conditions
and while it is still little early it
creates apprehension and this will
continue to increase If precipitation
does not come later in the season.
It is expected that there will be an
extra session Of congress.
There was a report today that flve
large passenger boats had been char
tered to carry grain to thencontinent,
these will be accompanied BY conveys.

No two weeds can be fought by the
same methods, and in many cases it
can doubtless be said that it makes
very little difference what methods are
pursued, the weed is bound to win.
However, it must be realized that 1t
is simply up to us in every sense of
the world. to make common cause
against these enemies. They have
been brought under control in other
sections where proper concerted ac-
ton was taken. This is a job for ev-
eryone-there is not citizen of North

Every farmer who has succeeded
for failed in any specific effort to
eradicate or control any of these pests
should stand up in meeting, and we
assure him of our respectful and un-
divided attention.

WE are at war with Germany be-

We are at wal for the reason that if
The French republic and the British
empire are brought down probably

involve our paying tribute to Ger
many for a generation at least and
result in MAKING THAT Ma

SUNSHINE
BY GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS.

If you are undecided as to what
shine business. 1t pays big profits.
You know how physical Sunshine af-
fects you-how it makes your day
pleasant and cheerful and puts health,
Zest and vigor into your system. Sun
shine in your Soul-Sunshine in your
Heart and Sunshine in your Face is
of an infinitely higher order, because
you can take it into the darkest corners
of your day and there will be light.
Distribute Sunshine.
The Sunshine spirit in you will not
only transform your entire day but it
will go far to Transform the entire
days of everyone that comes within the
radius of your Sunshine. You are
-cheered and inspired every time you
pass a man or woman on the street
with Sunshine streaming out from their
countenance and very attitude. To go
into an Office where there is Sunshine;
to go into q home where there is Sun
shine; to meet people and talk with
them with Sunshine ~radiating from
them-you cannot possibly come in
contract with a finer inspiration.
Distribute Sunshine.
Sunshine is a thing made up within
us. 1t cannot be bought and it cannot
help but be in you in great quantities
if you eliminate from your thinking
and from your working the things that
shut off Sunshine-Anger, Regret for
things that can't be Helped, Wrong
Viewpoints, Worry, Hatred, Envy,
~-Jealousies. Get these things out of
your system-give the Sunshine a
chance and your value to yourself and
other people will grow and grow.
Go into the Sunshine business.
