WHEAT TENDS Up
ON Lower STOCKS

CHICAGO, Jan. 15.--Wheat prices
tended upward today owing largely to
diminishing stocks and enlarging clear
Ances for Europe. According to lead
ing authority the amount OF wheat
available for export from the United
States between now and July had
been reduced to 1000. 900 bushels. On
the other hand the estimated proba BILE
clearances this week from Galveston
ard New Orleans alone we're 100000
bushels and 1t was said that vessel
tonnage at the gulf ports was becom.
ing more abundant. Opening prices.
which ranged from 4 off to u advance
with May at $l.S5 to $1.S5N and July
at $1.49k to $1.50A. were followed by
q material upturn all around but then
something of reaction.
Further crop damage reports from
Argentina had a Strengthening In.
fluence on corn. The market showed
sympathy also with the ascent Of
wheat. After opening u cent higher.
prices scored moderate further gains
Oats took the upgrade with other
cereals. Trade. however, was light.
Failing off in exports weakened pro-
visions. Lard led the decline.

You'll know why thousands use Mus

lief it gives.
Get a jar at once from the nearest
drug store. It is clean, white ointment,
made with the oil of mustard. Better
than a mustard plaster and does not
blister. Brings ease and comfort while
it is being rubbed on!
Musterole is recommended by many
doctors and nurses. Millions of jars are
used annually for bronchitis, Group, stiff

subtract $4,000 from this if you are
operating partnership or individual
business, and $4,000 if you are organ
lied as a corporation. For example,
suppose your capital is 100000 and
your net income is $4,000. Eight per
cent is $4,000, to which you add
$4,000 for a corporation and $4,000
for IN individual or partnership. leav-
ing the excess profits $4,000 for a
corporation and $4,000 for an individ-
ual Or partnership business.
If you want to know exactly you
will have to do some real figuring.
Here's how you go about it:
First determine the net income of
your business for each of the wears
1911, 1912 and 1913, by subtracting
from the gross amount of business
done in each of these years the proper
deductions for expenses, interest,
taxes and depreciation, substantially
as described for income taxes, except
