Chicago, May 5.-Wheat-Wheat did
not come out freely on'a nearly decline
this morning because most Of the long
commitments are held by foreigners or
millers who are buying for future needs
in consumptive or Industrial way. The
local trade enthused on a dull and
easier market and were obliged, near
the close, to buy back their early sales
on an advancing market. Private re-
ports indicate very low yield of winter
wheat, which the government may con-
firm in it's May report.
Concentrations in corn are very
much like those in wheat, except that
it Is not unlikely that the crop pros
poets will be materially better than
that Of wheat. The ground Is in good
condition and, altho the season Is back
ward. there will probably be a material
increase in the acreage and god seed
Is easily obtainable. The scarcity of
cash corn, which is likely to continue
well after urgent spring work is CON-
pleted, may very likely hold the market
firm.
Oats-More interest is displayed In
oats than in corn and wheat at prevail.
ing prices. There is, however, the con.
tinued handicap Of big supplies and a
rosy crop outlook to check bulges. A
good trading market exists, neverthe.
less In this commodity, ranges being
wider than those ordinarily occurrine
an the more active grains during norma
times.

Chicago, May 5.-Falling off In ship
ping orders brought about some de-
preston today in the hog market.
Eleven markets received $500 hogs
Friday, or 100 less than last Friday
800 more than year ago. and 1900 less
than two years ago. Total thus far
this week $4,000. or $1,000 more than
than same period last week, 1000 less
than like time last year and $4,000 more
than corresponding five days two years
ago. Ttoal for 1917 to date, 1880 900
or 1,124,000 less than same period 1916
and $4,000 more than corresponding

Cattle.
Most Of the cattle were In tho hands
OF the big killers.
Sale of choice heavy steers UP to
$13.40 in the Wednesday market setting
high mark for the week on a level with
a week ago we'll evidenced the keen
favor these kinds still command, and
in fact, anything around $13 and a
point or two lower is of little from
a week ago.
The decline has thus fallen upon
kinds most plentiful in the big run this
week, stuff Of value aN $10.25@12.O0.
Demand for beef in the eastern mar
kets holds up fairly well, SO the de-
cline this week looks like a temporary
break allowed by the liberal offerings
Packers claim they have an excess of
beef in their coolers at present, ku:
supplies have been rather short of late
when compared with the broad de-
mand that has developed and caused
prices to advance sharply.
Today's receipts at $500 head COM
pared with 1.699 a week ago, 1854 a year
ago, and 1876 two. years ago. The run
of cattle this week stands largest since
February. For the five days the sup
ply totals about $4,000 head, against
40.247 for same days last week. 1886
a year ago. and S9.465 for correspond
ing period two years ago.
Sheep.
Bulk Of sheep consignments went d.
rect to packers.
Present prices are higher than ever
before and the supply was unusually
meager. Variety was limited and prac-
tically all Of the wooded lots were Colo
RADIOS. Shorn offerings were mostly fed
but 1 few native Colorado
clippers were on sale. Quality was Of q
high standard and most offerings were
Of very desirable weight. SO that sellers
did little or NO sorting.
Outside call from shippers and city
butchers was Of small volume. Else
whore arrivals were not very numer-
GUS and the general situation has q
undertone. Dressed trade in
the east is in good condition and pack
ers are finding a comparatively broad
outlet for all but weighty carcasses.
Trade was active on shorn stock, but
slow on woolskins, which were firmly
held. Consequently some stuff was not
sold until after the noon hour.

Chicago, May 5.-Wheat prices today

1t was said the holdings Of foreigners

as to government control of prices.

followed by a decided general upturn

Corn.
Corn was governed almost entirely
by wheat. Trade was very small. At
ter opening unchanged to II cent low

Subsequently profit taking by hold

Our Flag.

The tradition of the American
Flag, that its stars an6 bars i'm
age the sky, has given to patriot
ism a picture big with inspira-
ton. There could be nothing lit
tie in a loyalty that chose a SYM
bol so vast, so inclusive in its
form and significance. The vast
ness of the United States, the
volume and complexity of its pop
ulation. have given a splendor to
this symbol that has enlarged
and glorified the elemental power
of the flag as a national sign.
And so, throughout all of the
conflicts of sentiment and judg-
ment which have marked the
problems of America in its rela-
ton to a warning world, there
has been a degree of unanimity
in honor to the flag that must
cheer and stimulate every lover
of his country. Differences OF
definition there must always be
in matters of patriotism. Histo-
ry records it from the beginning.
Not Only questions of war or
peace, but ways Of war have
Wrenched the wills and the heart
strings of mankind since civiliza-
tion began, but the inspiring fact
remains that, wherever it may
have to be carried, whatever ef-
forts it may be called upon to
guide, the flag in itself is SYM
boil, not only of unity, bat of
peace. Unless, at last, it stood
for the victories of peace it could
not hold the highest homage of
the highest valor. or.-Indianapolis

Rape Seeded in Corn
Makes Good Hog
Feed.

Rape seeded at the last cult
vation of corn will furnish abun-
dant nitrogenous feed for hogs
in normal seasons when cora is
''hogged" down. Some feed high
in protein is essential to supple
ment corn for best results in pork
production.
By suspending on each side of
the cultivator a tin can with a
small hole in it, rape seed may
be distributed in the cornfield
without extra labor in seeding.
From one TO two pounds of seed
to the acre is the usual rate. The
Dwarf Essex variety is most COM
monty grown. Rape sown in July
will be ready for hog pasturage
by September in ordinary sea-
sons.
Some high-protein feed must
be fed with corn for most rapid
gains in fattening hogs, tests al
the Ohio Agricultural Experiment
Station have shown. Tankage
and skimmilk may be fed wher
corn is hogged down. Rape OF
some other green forage crop
such as clover or alfalfa. viii
serve the same purpose and Otter
is cheaper.
