Final Contest Tonight
Will Decide Winners of
the Inter-SChOlaStiC Title
IT'S THEH. E. OIL. THAT'S GOING
TO BOTHER SPORTS This SUMMER
ACCORDING TO THE PRICE LISTS

Golf balls. baseballs. bats. gloves.
clubs and in fact. every instrument or
device used in athletics or contests Of
all kinds. even down to the lowly
checker board have advanced in price
this year. according to the quotations
given out yesterday by Lyons & Co..
local sporting goods dealers.
The popular game Of golf will be
affected but not as greatly as many
other lines of sport. a small in
crease in the price Of clubs will be no.
ticeable while the pills will be back
to the prices quoted two years ago.
Last seaon. golf balls were reduced
in price. due to the expiration Of the
Haskell patent. The Black Domino
which settled onto the fifty cent mark
last season. will again perch on the
IS per mark. The popular Baby
Dimple again leaps to the IS cent
mark. The humble Red Dot. solace
Of beginners but scorned by the
scratch artists. replaces the Domino
in the half dollar mark after SPEND
ing a whole season under 40 cent
tag.
The price Of golf clubs will depend
upon who is doing the buying. This
season will bring out classier dis
play to be praised and abused by
wielders. The increase in cost will be
too insignificant to be noticeable by
enthusiastic golfers. AS for shoes.

WINNIPEG CLOSE.
GRAIN LETTER.

Chicago. ILL.,, March 17.-wheat-
The feature today has been the

accumulation. The strike prospects
are gloomy and there ia q feeling OF

no doubt wheat will all be wanted
eventually and with this prospect the
market probably will have good sup
port on the dips.
Corn-Not much change in prices
today. Strength in wheat checked the
selling. Cash trade 10 at Q standstill
and will likely remain small for the
present. Requirement will be strong.
No signs weakening.
Oats were strong due In firmness In

Woe for Diamond Artists.
Much of the attractiveness for base

mond artists during their first visit to

ing NIT. which formerly sold for $40.
now brings $12.
Bats have leaped nearly 25 per cent
but the sticks are claimed to be OF
better quality. A new hickory bat has
been put on the market. which, 1t is
believed. will replace the ash club al
most entirely.
Tennis racquets have failed to sue
cumb to the high cost OF living and
remain at the old standard prices.
The tennis ball. however, shares in
the uprising Of prices and goes
bounding above the SO cent mark.
The gum used in the interior Of the
tennis ball is imported and American
manufacturers have failed to supply a
satisfactory substitute
Bicycles also have increased in
price and are keeping pace with
every other article to be found in q
sport store. Dealers are not jubilant
over the high prices however and de-
clare that they will again welcome a
reduction.

WHEAT GOES DOWN
CENT AT MINNEAPOLIS

Minneapolis. March 17.-Minne.
apolis May wheat 1c lower, July
wheat S-8c higher. September wheat
1c lower. The wheat market has held
strong for the nearby future while the
distant options have not displayed
much strength. September was easy
and lost 1c per bushel today. The
strength in the cash market and big
premiums paid for the cash wheat
helped to advance the May while the
better weather in the winter wheat
belt served to ease the distant months
Strike situation continues gloomy
and there is feeling that caution
should be used in making commit
ments.

Within q few weeks the farming
season in this section will open up.
There is no question but that we
should have brought home to us in
every possible way, that there never
was time when greater care and
Ing upon season than at the present
time. An effort should be made to
utilize to its fullest extent. every acre
OF ground. and every means at our
disposal for increasing production in
every way possible. There is an alb
solute need as we'll as sure profit
ahead in doing this, and everyone
should realize that crops should be
increased to the largest extent posi-
BILE.
Prices are High and VIII Remain So.
Regardless Of the war. prices will
remain high and the demand for ev-
erything produced on the farm will
increase to great extent. With every
acre OF ground and every energy put
to use in the United States there can
not possibly be a surplus at the close
OF another year.
The National City Bank of New York
Urges Preparedness.
The National City bank OF New
York emphasizes the importance Of
increasing the farm activities to an
extent never before attempted. The
northwest Is Justly called the bread
basket of the world. and this basket
at the present time is practically
empty. Consequently. it is up to us
to put forth every effort possible to
increase the production in this par
ticular commodity.
In review Of the situation. the
National Bank Of New York empha-
sizes the importance Of encouraging
farm activities and remarks that
states situated as we are. should rec
ognize our duties as we'll as our op-
portunities. and says further:
AT the moment no other factor
er importance than intelligent,
precautionary preparations to se-
cure the largest possible acreage OF
land under cultivation. and partic-
ulariy in the food crops. during the

have war or peace. the population

All one has to do to get a shark

that the periwinkle, a diminutive sea

New England port will be fitting out
a sharking fleet.
In the same glass case which in
closes the shark and rne periwinkles
are to be seen skate, dish of mus
sells and couple of cans of graytish.
The skate isn't much OF beauty to
look at, but disks cut from his fins
are guaranteed to be great eating.
Mussels are fine, too. They abound
along our coast. but though they kept
the Pilgrim Fathers alive at Ply
mouth through the bitter winter of
1620-'21, they have been permitted
to live and die in peace through gen.
erations since. Europeans know that
mussels taste better than clans, and
America, with such a supply at hand,
is invited to try them.

Three kinds of war bread, baked
especially for the exhibition, are
shown - one of them containing
three parts of white flour to one OF

Austrian Parliament

Amsterdam, May 25.-A Vienna
telegram says that in the course of
meeting of the representatives of
the lower chamber. Premier Clam
MARITIME expressed the hope that the
session would proceed in a manner
to increase the reputation of the
monarchy abroad. He mentioned
bills which would be submitted, in
cluding a coalition law and one pro-
viding for a war profit tax. The
premier admitted the right of the
house to decide Independently what
it considered necessary.
The foregoing dispatch gives the
first news that the Austrian parlia-
ment has convened. The convening
of parliament, which has not been
in session since the outbreak of the
war; has been one of the most acute
political questions in Austria. DIR.
