NEW YORK. Sept. 13-Bradstreets tomorrow will say:
 "Insistelt demand for war materials, the return of confidence in previously drouth-stricken areas, indications of a heavily increased winter wheat acre age, a record movement of grain, high prices for all farm products. and the certainty that orders offering are far larger than supplies, stand out as the prominent features of the week s news
 Widespread rains, putting the soil generally in good condition for a rec ord winter wheat seeding. some i'm provement in cotton and corn that had not been injured beyond repair, and approximately high prices for all kinds of faYm products and meat pro ducing animals. have removed some of the hesitation shown in the southern and southwestern sections of late, and iobbers, final distributors and con- sumers alike are freer buyers.

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Sept 13.-Nearly com plete disappearance of corn here gool enough in grade to be delivered on September contracts, did much today to give values an upward swing. Large ly in consequence, the close was un- settled, 12se to 2%c net higher. with October $1.54ts to S1.54A and Novem- Der $1.52& to $1.52B.
 Oats gained kc to k@1c. Provi- sions finished unchanged to 50 cents higher. ' ct
 Shorts in the corn market were plainly nervous over the scarcity of supplies in Chicago elevators, and re- garding the meager amount of pit of- ferings. The September option espe- cially showed an oversold condition, and went to a sharper premium as compared with October. Bears att tempted to use the favorable war news as a factor in forcing a decline, but the buying was too persistent to al low success of the effort. Instead. the markek sven to the last, retained most of the. days advances.

 SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13.-An or der holding up all shipments of prunes outside the state for civilian consump- tion pending a survey of the damage done the prune crop by the prevailing unprecedented rain fall, was issued tonight by the federal food administra- tion for California.

 Word has been received here that the military authorities have placed 1000 soldiers at Camp Fremont, Calf, at the disposal of the prune orchard ists in the Santa Clara valley to help save the crop, the complete destruc- tion of which was said to be threaten ed by continuing rainfall The sol diers will not be called out until Mon day. representatives of the growers said.

HOUSE PASSES
 BOND MEASUSE
CBy Review Leased Wire,

WASHINGTON, Sept. I3.-The ad- ministration measure designed to stimulate the sale of Liberty bonds by making a larger amount of them held bf individuals and corporations free from federal taxation, was passed tonight bf the house without a dis senting vote.
 All of the bills important features exempting from income and war ex- cess profits taxation the interest on bonds up to $3O,00O of the fourth is- sue and $45,O0 of previous issues, au- thOrizing regulation of Liberty bond transaction and increasing war saw ings stamps authorization from $2,- 0O0. 1000, ,OO0 to S4,00O,O00,O00 were left unchanged by the house.
 The bill now goes to the senate with prospects of speedy enactment next week. The house spent the entire day considering the measure, putting over the war revenue bill until tomorrow when general debate will be closed. Leaders plan to begin initial consid- eration of amendments Monday under a five minute debate rule.
 Enactment of the bond bill had been asked by the treasury department be- fore the beginning of the fourth Lib erty loan campaign. September 28 and all speakers in the house today agreed that the measure would great ly stimulate subscriptions to the loan. Although there was no opposition to the provisions for increasing tax ex- emptions of Liberty bonds, a sharp fight developed on the clause author;z, ing the president to regulate or pro hibit transactions in government bonds or other certificates. The pro vision, however, was retained in the bill, the house reversing previous ac- tion in committee of the whole after a stirring appeal by Majority Leader Kitchin.

many important communications
OF this kind are omitted. 1t is
not only the headquarters at
Washington, Richmond. Roa-
noke, University of Virginia,
Blacksburg and other places that
flood the newspapers with free
advertising matter but a large
number of jealous local societies
very properly seek space in the
newspapers to aid them in their
ldudable work. AS far as pos
sible the newspapers patriotical-
1y give much of their space, not
withstanding the fact that the
heavy increase in the cost of
paper, and the zone rate OF post
age which Congress has imposed
renders it necessary for publish
ers to furnish their subscribers
papers at less than cost. To
give away so much advertising
