One of the unexpected results Of
the movement for food conservation
necessitated by the diminishing sup
ply OF food in the world, has been the
action OF the Jewish bakers in re-
solving to discontinue Saturday bak-
ing. This action is at once patriotic
and of peculiar appropriations for
Jewish bakers. 1t is tribute to
their willingness TO forego personal
profits for the sake OF the country.
It is a splendid sign of their readi-
ness to make personal sacrifice when
the country calls.

One-day-oId Bread.

One-day-Old Bread.
Bread one day old is good food
it is. in fact. better and more digest
ible than fresh bread. When the
public considers that all of Europe
is eating war bread-bread in which
potatoes, oats. barley, and even fiber
is substituted for wheat-and that
no fresh bread whatever may be sold
in England, it Will be ready to do its
share by accepting day-old bread,
when necessary. Even this will not
be necessary if the consumer will
assist the retailer by ordering bread
in advance.

same as yesterdays finish to l 3.Sc
higher, with September 1.63 and De-
cember at III IA to 1.lS, were fol-
lowed by jump to about &c up in the

the hog market. circumstances due in
turn to the strike having seriously cur
tailed arrivals Of hogs.

Grain, Flour and Feed
Wheat-The market has shattered
precedent and traditions in the course
of fluctuations during the past week.
Prices have now reached a position
where there is no adequate media for
basing predictions of their future
course and legitimate operators in
cline to the belief that they have
passed the limit justified by existing
conditions, even though the shortage
OF supplies for meeting world require
ments up to the forthcoming harvest
is an aggravated one. Mills are prac-
tically out of the market, buying only
against immediate wants, while there
is no demand from other sources.
Considerable wheat is still held in the
interior, extending from this state
clear into the Dakotas. but most of
this stock has been sold and is being
held up in transportation.
Flour-Folowing the course of the
wheat market, flour has been sub
jected to steady advances, reaching
the pinnacle Wednesday at $500 for
ioSoi PotSh'S' WIN the uHSSttleu POI
sitlon of the market, and the reluc-
lance of the trade to operate, very
little business is passing at these fig
ures, and the mills are not pressing
sales. Retail demand has also sub
sided, following the heavy buying in
anticipation of advances and the trade
is quiet.
Feed-The market has been thrown
entirely off balance, with the disrup-
ton of cereal prices, and abnormal
advances have taken place all along
the line. Oats and barley are up, the
former ruling at $55 and $50 and the
latter at $55@56 per ton, while feed
wheat crowds the limit by passing the
$50 mark. Millfeed is also up, while
hay is quoting at $2S for alfalfa and
$50 for timothy
