Wheat-1he market was featureless,
with prices fixed on the basis OF WV
for No. l Northern wheat in Chicago,
which is equivalent TO $3.50 IN New
York for the same grade and s4.Zi LOT
No. . red and No. hard. Wheat IS
moving very slowly on the government
basis in the East at least, and Eastern
mills are finding difficulty in procuring
whest TO grind. The visible supply
increased $4,000 bushels, compared
with an increase of $4,000 last year.
Corn.-Another crop scare occurred yes
terday. and prices advanced 10 f7sc. clos
ing near the top. The weather over sunday
was again abnormay cold, with heavy frost
in Minnesota and Wisconsin. The cold wave
appeared 10 be working eastward, and the
trade was particularly concerned over pre-
dictious Of frost in Northern Illinois over
night Some authorities believe that the ad-
vance had about discounted the possibility OF
frost damage. but there was very active
demand. while sellers. sside from those who
were disposed 70 take profits. were inclined
10 be tmid. The demand appeared 10 come
principally from Eastern shorts. and IT be-
came apparent that the market had been
quite heavily oversold recently. Whether or
not the crop has been seriously damaged -

will doubtless cause considerable loss the
weekly forecast WAS for rising temperatures
over the country, and If the crop gets through
the present crisis the danger Of further frost
seems 10 have passed. Theecash situation
was strong for old corn. and the visible sup
ply showed a decrease Of $4,000 bushels
compared with a decrease OF $4,000 last
year The markets abroad were strong. owing

SAGE AND SULPHUR
 OARkENS GRAY HAIR
Brush this through faded, Iifeiess locks and they become dark,
 glossy, youthful.

Hair that loses it's color and lus.re or when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless. is caused by lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up mixture of Sage Tea and sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful and thousands of women 'nd men who value that even color. hat beautiful dark shade of hair which is so attracuve. use opiy this old time recipe.
 Nowadays we get this famous mix ure by asking at any drug store for 50 cent bottle of "Wyeth's Sage md Sulphur Compound" which dark ns the hair so naturally, so evenly, hat nobody can possibly tell it has neen applied. Besides, it takes off dandruff. stops scalp itching and fall Ing hair. You just dampen a sponge pr soft brush with it and draw this through your hair. taking one small strand at time. By morning the gray hair disappears; but what de- lights the ladies with Wyeth's Sage
 nd Sulphur is that. besides beauti- fully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the sloss and lustre and gives it an ap- 'earance of abundance.-Advertis nent

CHICAGO GRAIN

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-Indications that damage by frost last night had been done to the quality of corn, rather than quantity led to a reaction today from an advance which first took place in prices The market closed unsettled at $1.1SA December and S115A to sL15% May, half cent off to a shade up compared with Saturdays finish. The outcome in oats was unchanged to 1s lower and for provisions 1T cents down to rice of cents.
 In view of the generous size of the expected corn supply, no uneasiness developed over the fact that the visible stock was the smallest in more than thirty years Assertions current late in the day that a pc-;tion was being circulated here to have the maximum price on corn removed were without substantial basis.
 Business in oats was narrow and re- flected the changes in corn.
 Provisions, like oats. swayed with corn. Close:
 Corn: Dec, s11S4; May, s1.14A.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
Republican A.P. Leased Wire]

NEW YORK, Oct. 1--(Wall StreeD- Recurrent liquidation of rails, generally attributed to the greater necessities of foreign holders, more than neutralized the firmer tendencies shown by other stocks in the course of today's irregu- lar market.
 Offerings of transportation shares were insistent and in larger volume than at any recent period, some stan dard issues falling to lowest quotations of a decade or more. Additional reas- ons for their weakness were furnished by the poor August statements of such systems as Pennsylvania, New York Central and St. Paul.
 The market opened with an all- around demonstration of strength, leaders soon advancing one to three points under the favorable influence engendered by the second liberty loan campaign and indications of relaxed money conditions.
 Steels and other industrials, together with the bulk of the so-called war group featuerd the result, but the movement soon yielded to pressure upon such stocks as the coalers, trunk lines, grangers and transcontinentals.
 St. Paul common and preferred at declines of 3ss and a point. established new minimums at 523s and 99 respec- lively, Canadian Pacific's point droI to 1469s was the lowest level of the year and Baltimore and Ohio's loss ot points to 617s furnished a low quota tion for almost twenty years. Sales 5S5,000 shares.
 Bonds were irregular on reduced dealings, the liberty issue ranging be- tween 99.98 and 100.10. Total sales, pal value aggregated s2,S75,00 United States bonds, old issues, were un- changed on call, Panama coupon g: losing points on sales.

Aid Food Administrator
 The second suggestion made in the call for this meeting is as follows:
 Second: Our state crop survey is nearly complete and ready for delivery to Timothy A. Riordan, State Food Administrator, and plans should be evolved to give to MT. Riordan on be- half of the Council of Defense the largest possible cooperation in the great constructive task he has on hand"
 Fortunately, a large amount of pre- liminary work has been done through the council. particularly through our Committee on Food Conservation. which will be very useful to MT. Rior- dan in the big constructive work which he has undertaken, and the council through it's committees, will, of course. render to Mir Riordan every possible cooperation.
 The completed crop map of the state-the first ever made in Arizona which has been prepared under the direct charge of the State Council bv it's statistician, ]. E. Sellers, will be ready to turn over to Mr Riordan in about ten days, and will be a valuable base on which to develop agricultural pro- auction for the coming year.
 This question of food control. con- servation and distribution has a very vital relation to winning this war: Not only are our allies confronted with starvation unless we materially in crease our supplies of food stuffs to them, but the efforts of the food ad- ministration to reduce the cost of living are going to be of immense help ir settling the industrial arrest apparent in many sections of our country. Nc more convincing evidence of the influ. ence of the food administration can be shown than in the recently published government statistics, showing that j. the twelve months preceding July 15 1917, general retail food prices had advanced 32 per cent. Since the or. ganization of the food administration these prices have steadily declined Flour in the New York market ha. dropped $500 barrel, and the pas

rittee will probably be increased dur ing the coming year, and 1 wish that we had the funds-as they have in many of the states-to issue weekly or monthly bulletins for distribution generally. The newspapers, however, throughout the state have been very helpful in giving full publicity to the frequent publications sent out by the publicity committee.
 The committee on public revenue and finance is well organized, and 1 think will be able to provide such funds az to al least cover the fundamental needs of our work.
 The committee on mines and manr- factories; the committee on scientific research, and the committee on federal and interstate relations will probably have increasing work during the com ing year, and it might be desirable to enlarge the committee on law so that we have a legal representative in every county for the convenience of the county councils.
 For while it seemed rather diff- cult to finance the work of the State Council, but through the generous public spirited cooperation of num- Der of citizens and the support given the council by several of the county boards of supervisors we have been supplied with sufficient money to car ry out some of the most essential work before us, although the amount raised is startlingly small when compared with the funds running in some states | into millions of dollars which have been raised for the work of their state councils and which enables them to TO ir,1yr, nf r,J. licity work, and drive home to the people the practical methods in which they may cooperate to win this war.
 In closing this report, I feel that it would be highly desirable and will in- crease the efficiency of our work. if a definite monthly date might be ar ranged on which the executive con- mittee shall meet and that all mem bers of the committee pledge them i selves to endeayor to attend these monthly sessions. I know that this would be of immense help to me, ant ] the advice and counsel thus obtained | from the members of the committed would be bound to increase the ef- ficiency of our work. for, after all, il is work that counts, not words; and with your vigorous support, l believe in the next few months we should bt | able to make a record for real con. structive work as our share of servic, at this time of the nations need.
 I wish at this time to particular. extend my thanks and appreciation {, our office force under the very abl direction of George Smalley, our sec retary, for the efficient manner il which they have handled the immens amount of correspondence passin: through this office: and I also wis to thank the executive committee fo their invariable courtesy and co , operation.
