Suillsh kansas Crop Report Gives Only

Duplicate Action OF Corn-Lower
Hog Values Weaken Provisions.

Chicago, May 25-A1tho wheat prices
showed a disposition today to rally
from the declines which resulted from
false rumors OF a naval victory, the
market soon began to sag. Restrlc-
lions on new buying proved too much
Of handicap for any strength due to
a merely negative development. The
excellent crop outlook was more than
an offset. Opening prices, which
ranged from II cent lower to l cent
advance, with July at s2.23 and Sep
TENDER at S1.93, were followed by a
slight further hardening Of values and
then a setback all around TO well be-
low yesterdays finish.
Selling by houses with seaboard con-
nections led subsequently to material
further losses. Estimates were current
that the combined domestic winter and
spring crop this season would be 700,-
600, 900 bushel. a total in excess OF 1916.
The close was unsettled, Az to 5R
cents net lower. with July at 2.171a
and September at 1.SS.
Corn.
Bullish constructions placed on the
Kansas state crop report gave only
transient strength to corn. Demand
seemed to be confined to shorts. After
opening y cent off to Il cent up, the
market scored moderate general gains
and then made a sharp decent.
Continued increase of rural offerings
was largely responsible for breaks
which In some cases amounted TO 61a
cents. The market closed nervous at

dleton assistant secretary of the British board Of

farming methods. In a recent official paper deal
ing with this subject, Middleton makes the fol4

methods and results, comparison which may be
taken to heart by all to whom the necessity Of
greater food production has become apparent He
shows that on each one hundred acres Of cultivated
land

Middleton Analysing the comparisons above
quoted, states that Germany's superiority is of
comparatively recent date, extending back not over
fifteen to twenty years at most. He attributes her
present world supremacy in agricultural fields to
three factors-the systematic organization of agri-
cultural education the improvement effected in
the technical methods Of the farming community

HE COMES TO A|D0F
THE MARRIED WOMEN
az Fhs AssoeIs.ed rres..,

SACRAMENTO, California, May 90
The theory that woman should be
barred from teaching in the public
schools of California after she marries
is attacked by DR.. Edwin r. Snyder,
state commissioner of vocational educa.
ton, in an article in the latest issue
of the blue bulletin issued by the state
department Of education.
Efficiency and not marriage should
be the test Of service, according to Doe.
tor Snyder, who declares that "the
automatic dismissal of the women
teacher when she contracts marriage
has hindered the establishment Of more
good homes than it has saved from
destruction. -
''The conclusion that the married
teacher must necessarily neglect home
for school is an assupmtion rather than
a. fact, (" says the commissioner.
t'There are many married women serv-
ing in the schools who also are main.
taining the best kind of homesn
1t is not part of the function of the
board of education to assume the pre-
rogative Of debating what the home
duties Of a woman shall be, the article
holds. Insofar as the appointment OF
teachers is concerned the board is
charged solely with securing the best
possible service for the schools.
Another argument commonly raised
against the married teacher says Sny
der, is that because she has husband
TO support her the position should &c
to an unmarried woman. To agree with
this, however, is to assume that one
| principle controlling the selection Of
teachers is that the school system exists
to provide opportunities for a certain
class of persons. The commissioner ad
yances numerous Arguments in favor Of
married women as teachers.

Election Results

THERE is not much comfort to be drawn from

that the split tickets did not quite succeed in Civ
ing Honolulu complete Democratic government,
The Democrats voted straight and mustered a sur
prising number OF voters, considering the cam
paign they carried on, while the Republicans
scratched in many instances
Thus we have Fern again for mayor, with two
years Of buffoonefy in the city hall before US.
We have Rose again for sheriff, with majority
that makes him Enthusiastically the choice Of the
city. What the military and naval authorities
will think Of Honoluus approval OF the attitude of
the police under Rose towards the uniform re-
mains to be seen. With Fern nominating the
members OF the next police commission, the
chances for even what slight check upon the police
there has been will be gone.
The board Of supervisors is good one, but how
it will be able to work out its plans for betterment
with Fern at its head is yet to be determined. The
indications are that there will be monkey-and-
parrot time around the city hall
Fern has the power to dismiss Fire Chief Thurs
ton, City Engineer Collins, Superintendent Muir
ray of the waterworks department, and number
Of others. That he will do so, goes without say
ing, and in it he will be backed up by Messrs.
Mcclellan and Petrie and urged on by Link
McCandIess and his Pauahi Street following. His
nominees have to be confirmed by the Republican
board, it is true, but the members must confirm
the choices of the mayor, sooner or later.
Lane was defeated through treachery. The Re-
publicans who went over to Rose undoubtedly
helped materially in putting Fern over, perhaps
with new police commission in mind. Lane
owes his defeat to men he put into Office, and he
may remember now that against both these men
he was warned repeatedly ''.."agaa
1t may be that if Fern be supplied with new

Liberty Bond Offers Good
Investment

TIME holder of Liberty Bond has the privilege,
i without expense to him, of exchanging his
three and one-half per cent bond into any new
United States government bonds which may be
issued during the present war, bearing a higher
rate OF interest. ~
This is most important practical reason for de-
Gliding to buy Liberty Bond now. :> I'd
If the government is obliged to raise the interest
rate Of any now issued to sell bonds at par Q00),
the present purchaser enjoys the enviabe position
of being able to increase his rate of interest by
this exchange privilege.
Furthermore, power to increase the interest rate
should enable the government to maintain the
price of the Liberty Loan at above par 600.
1t seems equally likely that in the event of such
increase of interest rate becoming necessary, other
securities bearing fixed interest rates will decline
in price. ~ rs.
This means that the present purchaser of Lib
erty Bond can feel certain that he can sell his
bond at any time at practically what he now pays
for it or more If he holds other securities bear
ing fixed interest rates he may have to suffer con
siderable loss in the event OF his selling, So gKEr
If the war is OF short duration, he can probably
sell his $1,000 bond at considerable more than
$1,000. If the war is OF long duration and the gov
ernment is Obliged to issue more bonds at higher
rate, the investor gets the higher interest rate
In the Liberty Bond the investor is protected fore
and aft-either way he wins,
