ELEVATORS NOT
BUYING WHEAT
PROMPT ACTION.
PRICES NEEDED
Local Mills Purchase Only
Enough for Immediate
Needs
ARE WAITING FOR
GOVERNMENT TO ACT
Congestion Will Result I'm
less Prompt Relief Is
Afforded

Elevators are not buying wheat on
account Of the unsettled condition of
the market,
At the Fargo mill and the Dwight
elevator in Moorhead only enough is
bought from day to day to take care
Of immediate demands for milling.
AS the mills are selling only flour for
local delivery and nearby shipments
there Is but little wheat bought in
Moorhead and Fargo.
Reports from outside points are to
the effect that none Of the elevators
throughout the two states are buy
ing, but wheat is taken in and stor-
age tickets issued. Until the fed
eral price fixing committee of the
food administration board fixes the
price there will be no movement of
the wheat crop.
meeting Of the committee in Wash
ington, D. c.. on Friday there may
not be q tieup. Unless relief is at
forded there will be congestion as
all of the country elevators will be
filled up within a few days after
wheat threshing becomes general
This condition may become serious
as such large quantities Of grain are
hauled directly from the threshing
rig to the elevators or loaded into
cars for immediate shipment. I'm
less there is relief within the next
few days wheat threshing must stop
as soon as granaries on the farms
and elevators in the towns are fill
ed.
One advantage is tina. the old
wheat has been practically all ship
ped out Of the country and the gram
aries and elevator bins swept clean.
Threshing of oats and barley will be
given precedence, but the market for
these grains is also up in the air"
to a certain extent.
A 40 cent drop in wheat prices dur
ing the past three days establishes
a new record. On Monday the drop
was ten cents a bushel: on Tuesday
five cents and today % cents. Still
there is no local market for no one
will buy until there is a definate
price established.

Hair Often Ruined
BY Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,
II you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkali.
This dries the scalp, makes the hair
brittle and ruins it.
The best thing for steady use is
just ordinary mulsifled cocoanut oil,
(Which is pure and greaseless), and is
better than the most expensive soap
or anything else you can use.
One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Sim
ply moisten the hair with, water and
rub it in. 1t makes an abundance of
rich, creamy lather, which rinses out
easily, removing every particle of
dust, dirt, dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly.
and 1t leaves the scalp soft, and the
hair fine and silky, bright, lustrous,
fluffy, and easy to manage.
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap, and
a few ounces will supply every mem
Der Of the family for months.

Diners-out In London
Are Not Ashamed to
Pocket the Sugar

London, July 30.-(COrrespOndenc
of the Associated PFess.) -Diners-O
in London are regularly engaged just
now in practice which popularity is
known as "pOcketing the sugar" The
idea Is to lay up a supply of sWeeten-
ing for a day when IL may lie harder
to obtain or, on the part of nOn-sugar
eating individuals, for friends who
like more than they are allowed. The
custom is praCtiCed all over the city
and in all classes of places where Gtea
and food are served.
German submarines lately seem to
have been especially active against
ships that happened to be carrying
sugar, with the result that, while
there Is enough 10 go around, the
supplies for the distant future are
none too large. Tea and coffee are
served with just the allowed weight
of sugar, usually set alongside the
cups in separate containers and
usually consisting of halves or thirds

that most often are seen disappeG%
ing in TO the gold. silver and leather

Sugar served for berries or other
food is hard to pocket. Nearly always
1t is of the crude variety and very
sticky. but collectors Of sugar even
carry off this kind with them, having
'ase0nvenient envelope or a little cloth
bag ready for 1t. -.
Lump sugar is much more popular,
however. and in the mesh bags of
women i'm London's streets and hotels

VIVIAN TAKES
PRIDE IN FARGO

Friends of Irving Vivian, former
city editor of The Bismarck Tribune
and of late one of the special officers
of the vehicle department of the
state, are wondering If it is so or if
1t is not.
A marriage license was issued at
the ONCE Of Cass county court Tues
day evening, the principals being
Irving Vivian and Miss Lucinda
Clemens. The wedding, is believed,
to have taken place in Fargo this
morning, the exact time, the place
and the pastor not being known.
At the time Mr.. Vivian applied for
the license, he made the request that
it be withheld from the hands of
newspapermen, and he was formerly
one himself.
Miss Lucinda Clemens is we'll
known in Bismarck and taughtin the
public schools of that city last year.
She has been Spending the summer
at ShorchsSn and came up from that
point to Fargo Tuesday evening.

the loss or theft Of his diamond pin,

According to the story told to

has been in the habit of calling at
a certain Fargo bank and deposIting
his stick pin for safekeeping.
Tuesday he took 1t into the bank

counter, thinking that the clerk
would handle it as usual and place IL
in the vault. Today the article
could not be found.
The police say the clerk remern-
bers seeing the pin on the counter,
but is of the belief that it was pick
ed up by some stranger.

Sow Mere Rye.


In an interview in regard to rye,
Director Cooper, of the North Dakota
Agricultural Experiment station,
states that ii has proved to be a prof.
liable and dependable crop to grow
and that the acreage could probably
be increased from 100000 to 1885,
900 acres in North Dakota. In addi-
ton to producing crop of grain, 1t
may produce fall pasture If sown
early. This also gives il the best
chaice of making q good crop the
next year, provided 1t does not get
big enough TO form joints in the fall
even IL 1t is not pastured. In most
of the state the rainfall has not been
heavy enough TO pack the blowing so
that the soil Is in fine condition for
sowing the rye in the stubble. This
can be done at a cost Of 40 cents an
acre for man and horse labor, plus
about So for seed. Then IL will re-
quire no further work till harvest
next July. Sowing a part OF the farm
to rye reduces the acre cost of opera
tion. may produce some fall pasture,
makes more certain crop on a part
of the farm, distributes the labor and
OFFERS good possibilities for profit. J
