CORN PRICES SAG

Chicago. Aug. 18.-NOtwithstand-
ing that much weekend evening up
of contracts was expected today, the
corn market underwent something of
a sag. Bearish sentiment was ascribed
largely to the general attitude of the
government toward preventing an eX-
cessive rise in the value of any es-
sential product Opening prices,
which ranged from Is to 5-8c lower,
with December at 1.12 to 1.12 A and
May at 100 to 100 IA, we're follc~eyt
by Slight rallies which however, failed
to last.
Wheat trading showed no sign of
life. The market was at a standstill.
With a record yield of oats in sight,
that cereal was subjected to heavy
selling pressure.
European demand as we'll as hog
scarcity in this country, tended to
give fresh impetus to advances in
provisions.

NEW YORK COTTON

New York, Aug. 18-Cotton futures
opened steady at a decline OF to 9
points this morning. Selling was not
very active, but there were few buy
ers and October eased off to 2L+5
while January sold at 24.25 SHORTY
after the call, making a net loss of
% to "a points on the more active
positions. Favorable weekly reviews
as to the average proress of the crop,
and talk of an easy spot basis for
early shipment in the Eastern belt,
appeared to encourage the selling
movement, while some attention was
also attracted by a Paris cable re
porting that imports into France had
been limited to $4,000 bales of all
kinds per year. The official Western
belt forecast for fair weather except
partly cloudy in Texas, held but little
hope for a break in the drouth, how
ever, and prices rallied 4 or 5 points
on covering.

Washington Bureau,
The Pensacola Journal

Washington, D. c., Aug. 1s.-Sen-
ator Park Trammel, this morning
had a conference with Provost Mar
shall General Crowder relatives to the
departments rulings on exemptions
for married men who have been
drafted in the national army. On ac-
count of recent publications in Flor
ida papers of articles, purporting to
contain the rulings of General Crow
der on this point, Senator Tramme!
has received a great many inquiries
from Florida upon the subject. Sen
ator Trammel felt that if such rul-
ing had been made it was entirely
too far reaching and not within the
spirit of the law authorizing the
draft army as it was generally un-
derstood in Washington at the time
the draft law was passed that mar
ried men would be among the ex-
empted classes, especially if they
were the SCI dependence of the wife
and children.
Senator Trammel was assured that
he had not sent out ruling as above
mentioned, General Crowder stated

struction, has progressed satisfac-
torily. Contractor Frank NJ Williams

ing.
Major Hughes has allowed the use
of the new barracks at Fort Pickens,
and the amusement hall at Barrancas,
for the use of the Y. NJ. c. A. men.
Enough equipment to furnish these
buildings was reported to have

that he was intoxicated.
In his previous testimony, Sergeant
Hauteman stated that there was only
one case of intoxication during the
mastering which involved neither Of
the Hurds and that the offender had
been promptly discharged. On be-
ing recalled to the stand, he said that
his former testimony was incorrect,
and while such an incident had oc-
Cured, it was on the night of July
1st, at federal inspection, and not
MAY 16. when the company was mus
tered He also testified that he had
seen Millard Hurd fill out the re-
quired blanks.
Sergeant Mann was called, agd on
manner of mastering the company.
He said that the company was lined
up on the north side Of the armory
hall facing south. and that as the roll
was called, each man answered to his
name, walked several PAGES across
the hall to the south side. AS the
distance was several yards, the wit
ness stated that it would be easily
noticed had any of the men been un-
der the influence of liquor. None
were seen according to testimony.
Millard Hurd was placed on the
stand and testified that he had not
signed the papers, but that he had
sign a card in a pool room for Ser
geant Hauteman, and that he did not
know what it was for. On being
shown his enlistment paper, with the
name of Millard NJ. Hurd signed
thereon, the witness said that it may
be his signature but that he did not
remember signing it, Mr.. Hoffman
requested him to write his signature,
which he did, corresponding exactly
the prosecution claims, with the name
on the blank.
James F. Hurd was called as the
closing witness, and gave evidence in
relation to the former proceedings in
the divorce case. He stated that he
may have testified that he was thir-
teen, but that he only said what his
father had told him, and that the
| testimony was not true.

Correct Wrong Impression
On Question Of Exemption

that the ruling on the question he
had issued was that if there were
relatives able, capable and willing to
support the wife and children, during
the husbands absence, that no ex-
emption should be allowed. In the
course of the conversation Senator
Trammel drew the conclusion that
this ruling Of General Crowder's was
intended to prevent men of wealth or
the scions of wealthy famllyies claim
ing exemption because of dependent
wife or children with which idea
Senator Trammel was in full accord.
Senator Trammel says he has no
sympathy with "slackers" married or
single, but his interest in the mat
ter is based solely on the ground that
he does not believe married mems
homes should be broken up unneces-
sarily, and feels that the large num-
Der of single men yet available and
not reached in the drawing makes it
unnecessary for extremely drastic
requirements to be enforced against
married men whose families are de-
pendent upon them for support.
which too in its operation would be
discriminating in favor of single men
without family obligations upon them.

New Orleans, Aug. 18.-A decline
of II to % points occurred in the first

was steady at the decline.

Il don't know what is the matter

everything"
The fact is that, If you ask
these people to read the stand
ardized type they do not read it
at the distance prescribed but
will either hold it off at arms
length or get it so close to the
eyes as to be uncomfortable. They
cannot read without A,r accommo-
dative effort, but they are uncon-
scious of the fact.
This does not apply, so strongly,
to young people who have a
greater power of accommodation
as it does to persons around the
age of forty and from then on,
whose power of accommodation is
gradually-and normally-becom-
ing suspended.
It is not so much the purpose
of these articles to enter into a
lengthy scientific discussion as it
is to impress upon the reader the
fact that the matter has already
been worked out, on an eminently
scientific basis. and that the ap-
plication of glasses is simply fol-
lowing a natural law-the only
thing necessary for the reader be-
ing to take advantage Of the con-
dition.

In a previous article, faulty
refraction was indicated as one
of the chief causes of diseases of
the eye, and it was suggested that
the wearing of suitable glasses
would overcome the error in re-
fraction and put the eyes at rest.
Many young people, who have
only slight error of refraction,
object to wearing glasses, be-
cause they think it makes them
look old; but glasses do not i'm
part the aged appearance that
wrinkles do, and if you find it
necessary to "squint" you will
surely, in time, create wrinkles.
The greatest authorities on dis
eases of the eye are unanimous
on the subject Of correcting even
slight errors of refraction; and
many people who think that
glasses detract from their per-
sonal appearance find, after hav-
ing worn them for a short time,
that from the comfort which they
give, and from getting acCus-
toned to them, glasses really i'm
part an added attractiveness,
The oculust. who spends con-
siderable of his time investigat-
ing the cause of disease, finds that
a great deal of annoyance is
brought about by the so-called
slight error in refraction be-
cause, without glasses, the error
can be overcome only by a mus
cular effort which overtaxes the
accommodative apparatus. Hence
even the slight error should by
all means, be corrected.

THE WHEAT PRICE EXPLAINED

Although there has been much said
by way Of explaining the govern
ment price of wheat many people are
still asking for information on the
subject, and this is not at all strange
for the problem of price fixing by
the government is entirely new to
our country.
The price now is 1920 at Chicago
for No. / wheat of the different va
rieties. This price was determined
by a committee of IL selected by the
president, the membership Of the
committee being comprised of two
prominent economists, two represent
atives of organized labor, two repre-
sentatives of big business, two presi'
dents of state agricultural colleges
three representatives of agriculture
and one individual farmer. There
were on the committee four men &C
tually engaged in farming.
The price of 1920 for No. l wheat
at Chicago is a fixed price for the
1917 crop and will not be changed
before July l, 1918. The government
