| The trade in cash wheat was triis more

another heavy decline, the traders got to-

The wheat market generally was about

| moderately active and the receipts fairly
heavy, there was some disposition on the
part of the sellers to hold out for better
prices.
The early sales Of No. . hard wheat were
made around 32.s1 to 1888, while the No.
hard brought about $3.50, and No. hard
| ranged from $3.50 to s2.70.
The trade in corn was somewhat slower
| today, although the market was strong at
an advance OF 1hc to 2hc. and receipts
were fairly heavy The demand for corn,
however. was very good, but the traders
did not get together very good on prices.
The premium on white corn was about the
same as yesterday. the better grades of
white selling generally about Be above the
mixed, while the No grade of yellow
corn sold nc in advance Of the mixed of
the same quality. The commercial grades
OF white corn brought from $163h to 1854

Increased Potato Production
Topic for Conservation Talk
tFrom a Staff Correspondent.

Lincoln, Neb., May H.-(Special.)
Increased production of potatoes
and beans, in order to make every
acre Of Nebraska land produce to its
capacity, will be one Of the important
topics for discussion at the State Food
Conservation conference in Omaha
next week. The western part of the
state, especially will be considered in
this regard. as hundreds of thousands
of acres OF fertile lands there have
never been planted to any kind Of
crop.
A committee to collect statistics on
potato and bean yields in different
parts of the state, and report at the
Omaha conference, has been appoint
ed, to work at the expense of them
selves. Lloyd c. Thomas of Alliance
is chairman, and John E. Jacobsen
of Lexington has been made his as
sistant. They will report especially
upon the condition of the non-irri-
gated lands of the northwest.

Additional reports that the entente allies
would be required to cease or at least abate
to a large degree their vast wheat buying
operations In the United States tended to
keep the market depressed. On the other
hand, the circumstances that the American
government would be expected to guarantee
that the British and other allied govern
ments would when needed receive an ade-
quate supply from this side of the Atlantic
acted as an offset in part.
Announcement of a renewed embargo on
wheat by Argentina seemed to count little
