citizen. Moreover, the danger 20 the
United States has become the greater
as the result Of the practical with,
drawal OF Russia from belligerent op.
erations. Freed from serious attempt
at invasion on their eastern front.
Germany and Austria Hungary can
transfer their men to the west ana
against italy and either make ire
mendous drive at one point or the
other or meet with calmness the Bit
lsh, French and Italian assaults.
Germany is nervously anxious TO
have the war terminate before the
United States will be ready. She hg-
ures that six months hence q million
Americans will be available for serv-
ice in France and that Q few months
after that time another million WILL Dc
equipped for combat.
See Peace Moves.
1t Is fully expected by the military
authorities Of the entente, therefore,
that the Berlin government will do Its
best to give a knockout blow to the
allied cause and in the meantime VIII
use every means in Its power to Dring
about peace negotiations.
The socialist conference In Stock
holm unquestionably Is controlled by
the Germans. There Is little doubt
that German agents are actively be-
hind the peace movement In Russia
and that once the terms Of the allies
are made known they will seek to con-
vince the Russian people that they
conflict with the provisional govern
ment's declaration Of opposition to ter
ritorial annexation and indemnities.
In other words Germany proposes to
do everything in her power to separate
Russia from the allies and at the same
time use the provisional government
of that nation to aid in bringing about
peace.
So the authorities are watching with
suspicion every peace move at the
present time and it would be well TOT
the American people to do likewise.

Chicago. June S.-Wheat-1f there
was a market in wheat and prices
were not double those Of year ago
at this time, today's government re-
mort would doubtless be reflected in
higher markets. An indicated yield at
this time, Of 656,O00,00O bushels winter
and spring wheat. as against total
yield of 64O,OOO000 bushels last year.
is a misfortune both for the producer
and the consumer Of the entire world
twho, fer the most part has little sur
plus laid away 1t should mean high
prices for some time, even after the
! war is ended. With a closed MARKET
/ however, It is useless to speculate as
ito the effect Of the report, especially
In view Of the fact that the govern
meut is taking steps to distribute sup
iplies during the present emergency.
Corn-Further export business and
buying by leading holders
tresulted in a sharp upturn In corn to
balmost as high prices as were made on
"wednesday. Cash corn did not main
,tain the high premium which prevailed
b1or the last two days. altfo 1t was in
gaod demand both from shippers and
industries.
Dats-With an increased acreage and
Improved condition, as compared with
last year, the oats crop Is estimated
by the government at 1,S01,OOo,OOO
bushels or about 13O,oOo,00o bushels
more than last year. There is a dis
pposition on the part Of spectators to
.Duy oats on account Of their relative
kcheapness and because to date no price
Ehas been fixed as maximum.

chicago, Juno s.-Wheat showed a
Aeclining tendency today owing largely
to predictions that the government
crop report would be bearish. Some
estimates were that the yield indicated
would total 5o,ooo.ooo bushels more
than was harvested in 1916. Dry
weather complaints from the spring
wheat states and Canada, however.
counted somewhat as an offset. Prices
which ranged from the same as yes
terday's finish to ~ cents lower. with
July at 2.21 to 2.22 and September at
1.941a to 1.95, were followed by mod
crate further setback all around.
The close was unsettled at the same
as yesterdays finish to " cents high

at $l.95.
Corn.
Corn trade appeared to have returned
to normal basis again after several
DAYS of excitement in regard to the
fixing of a maximum price limit. Fav-
orable weather over the corn belt to-
day did a good deal to ease the mar
ket. After opening Il cent to 2 cents

How to Fit q Horse Collar.

A collar should be fitted to the horse
and not the horse to the collar. The
collar that is too large should not be
used on a horse In the hope that he
will grow large enough so it will even
tually DIT. A collar that fits well In
the spring may not fit at all In the fall.
When one is fitting . horse with a
collar the animal should be standing In
a natural position on level ground, with
his head held at the height maintained
while at work. The collar when buck
led should fit snugly to the side Of the
neck, and its face should follow closely
and be in even contact with the sur
face of the shoulders from the top of
the withers to the region of his throat
At the throat there should be enough
room for a mans hand to be inserted
inside the collar.-Farm and Fireside.

Waste In Food.

Eat what is on your plate" may
seem to many people to be new table
precept, yet 1t has been practiced for
many years in certain little commune

New England, where the waste Of food
is regarded as almost crime. Hang
ing on the walls of many houses in
these communities may be found the

worsted or cardboard and setting forth
this sentiment, which somehow has a
characteristic old time New England
ring:
Prosperity may roll with ample fow.

bless.

woe.
