WHEAT MARKET
Is AGAIN LOWER
Operations are Influenced by
the Break in Coarse
Grains

Chicago June 19.--Wheat: Market
has been lower today. influenced by the
break in coarse grains. Good weather
also a. factor. and with the limited buy
ing the market is heavy. Outside mar
kets also were weak. Primary receipts
$4,000 against $4,000 year ago. The
cash demand is broad enough to keep
up premiums for old wheat but new
wheat is being offered on a lower
basis compared to old wheat. Foreign
conditions are unchanged, the need be-
ing great for wheat, but with fairly
ample supplies arriving for the present.
Corn: Fine weather in all directions
created a more bearish sentiment In
corn and prices sold off sharply early,
the September being especially weak.
Forecast is for continued good weather.
Cash prices hold, up and there Is no
great pressure from any source on the
corn market. Country offerings are not
heavy. Crop reports in the main are
favorable and with good weather the
outlook is expected to show marked
Improvement. The scarcity of cash
corn makes the mraket easily oversola.
Oats: Rallied after being weak ear
ly, there was fair class of commission
house buying. The cash demand is slow
and with good crop prospects,, the
buying is not at all urgent. hs

NO LIQUOR ADS IN
DRY COUNTIES RULED
Postoffiee Solicitor at Washington Says
They Will Be Barred From
The Mails.

Assurance that liquor advertising or
circulars will be barred from the mails
in the dry counties of Minnesota has
been received from the solicitor of the
postoffice department at Washington by
John A. Shields, secretary of the pro-
hibition state committee, who recently
told the department Of the Minnesota
law.
Under the federal law effective July
/, the mails will not carry liquor ad-
vertising into territory where the solicit
tation of liquor orders is prohibited by
state or local regulation. Mr.. Shields
cited Section 1886 of the Minnesota
Revised Statutes of 1913.
The letter received yesterday says
the departments first order was mere
ly preliminary. This department" it
says, "construes Section 5 of the act of
congress approved March 3, 1917, as
forbidding the depositing or transmits
sion in the mails of any matter con-
tanning either advertisements for in
toxicating liquor or solicitations for
orders therefor, when addressed to any
dry territory in your state affected by
Section 1886. Liquor Bulletin No.
was preliminary and is incomplete.
Your state will be treated in the next
issue of the liquor bulletin, which is
planned at an early date"

REASSIGNMENT
OF MEN and WORK
AT FT. SMELLING
"Happy" Peterson Tells of
New. Order at Officers
Training Camp

With the reassignment of men at
the officers training camp at Fort
Smelling comes a Encouragement of
the work: and the following letter
from Happy" Peterson tells of the
new order of things
Co. 9, Fort Smelling, June II, 1917
During this last Saturday and Sun
day there has been much hustle and
work due to the reassignment of the
different companies into the various
branches of the service. Those OF us
who were previously in company IA
and had made application for service
in the infantry branch were fortunate
in moving to be obliged to transfer
only to our neighboring barracks
which now houses Company 8. All the
Fargo and Moorhead boys who were in
Company IA are now in Company
with the exception of Dunbar Cole,
who, in some way was assigned to the
field artillery. Mr.. Cole is at present
trying to arrange for his transfer to
the infantry branch in which case he
will join our company. Since the
transfers were completed only today
do not know the present whereabouts
of the other Fargo Moorhead men at
the camp.
Henceforth there will also be con-
siderable change In the nature or the
work. There will be more field work
and actual range target shooting will
displace the gallery practice we have
had up to this time. Tomorrow we
are ordered to be in readiness at 5:45
a. m, to march to the rife range
where we will spend the entire day
and have our dinners brought to us.
This early start necessitates our ris-
ing from our downy beds of ease at
4:45 a. m, which forces us to the
conclusion that the rifle ranges are
wild since we must sneak up on them
in the dark.
The barracks we now occupy are
tied with the ones we just vacated in
being the best in the post. They are
well ventilated, roomy, and clean,
with the best Of facilities for keeping
clean. and have about six large steel
lockers for each squad of eight men.
There are 81 squads to the company
which makes it pretty large. When
at table in the mess hall the company
is divided into an orderly arrange
ment of squads. The squads are kept
together also in a like manner in the
sleeping quarters or squad rooms.
Best wishes and regards to my
friends in Moorhead and Fargo. 4
Sincerely,
PAUL ]. PETERSON.
