from 5 cents decline to rise of 90

Hopes of an increase Of arrivals
seemed to be generally entertained in
the corn trade at the outset. Large
amounts of corn were said to be in
transit from the country and certain
to make their appearance as soon as
railway implements had been more
fully removed. The fact. however that
receipts still remained comparatively
small operated to reduce selling pres
sure and made prices responsive later
to n forecast of new storms and an
other cold wave. Attention was given
also to reports that corn was wanted

ficulties rendered the prospect Of i'm

GERMANS REACH THE MARINE
FORTY MILES FROM PARIS
Army OF the Crown Prince Drives a
Wedge to the Marine and Presses
Eastward Toward Paris-Adyanee
Finally Checked.

The army of the crown prince reach
ed the Marine Friday, and has widened
the point of the wedge to twelve or
fifteen miles resting on the Marne..
The western base of the wedge is
near Rheims, and the eastern base
near Scissors. Slight gains were
made Saturday and Sunday, but the
advance was reported as stopped Mon
day. Small bites have been taken out
Of the lines by the British and French,
and the Americans have repulsed
every attack made on their sector. A
German report that a large amount
of American stores had been captured
is denied by General Pershing.
Particularly hard fighting again has
been in progress between SCISSORS and
Chateau Thierry, where the Germans
are endeavOring to push further for
ward toward Paris, but not alone have
the French troops almost everywhere
successfully withstood the onslaught,
but on several sectors themselves have
taken the initiative and gained ground.
AS a whole the situation along this
line is relatively unchanged.
The German war office at last has
admitted that the allied line on the
west has been reinforced by fresh
units, but it asserts that they have not
been able to hold the positions to
which they were assigned. Neverthe-
less, the fact is patent from an obser-
vation of the war maps that almost
everywhere in this region the German
line, for the moment at least, is being
hard held.
From Chateau Thierry eastward
along the Marne and thence to Rheims
the situation is virtually unchanged
from that of Sunday.
The enemy now holds the northern
bank of the Marne for a distance OF
about Is miles, but as yet he ha:
made no serious endeavor to cross the
stream.
Little fighting aside from the usua
affairs between raiding parties is TAX
ing place on the Flanders front. The
British have carried out successful
raids on several sectors here and TAX
en- nearly 300 prisoners.
American aviators are giving goof
accounts of themselves over the battle

TOTAL ECLIPSE SATURDAY.
For About Two Minutes suns Face

American Falls is directly in the

that, weather permitting. may be OBJ

4:12 Regarding the eclipse Prof. Ed
win 3. Frost Of the Yerks observatory
says:

Of a total solar eclipse will be vis-

track Of the moons shadow is 70

/ For about an hour the moon will

narrowing crescent Of the sun will
suddenly disappear. and around the
iet-black ball of the moon, hanging
in the northwestern sky among the
brighter stars will be seen the early
radiance OF the mysterious solar cor
ona. The remarkable spectacle may
be enjoyed for l22 seconds at the
western coast. and for half that time
in Florida. Then the crescent OF the
sun will appear on the other west

RULK SHIPMENT, BAGS. STORAGE.
Farmers Are Advised to Make lmme-
diate Arrangements to Supply Their
Needs.

Since mailing Bulletin No. 25, we
have obtained definited information
from Washington outlining our priv
ileges of shipping potatoes IN oulk.
Many of our growers and shippers
will. no doubt, avail themselves Of this
method in order to save bags. We
must take into consideration the saw
ing we can make by bulk shipment OF
potatoes and order our bags accord
ingly. l will quote from the letter
received from the bureau of markets:
1T has been the experience OF the
specialists in the bureau of markets,
most familiar with that subject, that
other things being equal, western po-
tatoes will hold up and stand snip
ment in bulk as well as eastern po-
tatoes. Some detailed studies were
made during the past year and we
have in preparation a bulletin whlch
will give the results for those expert
ments and which we hope to have
ready for distribution before this
years crop is ready for movement.
I'VE are unable TO locate any tariff
authority which would authorize
general refusal of potatoes in oulK.
Through the list of open and prepay
stations each carrier serves notice
that at certain stations there are no
facilities for handling bulk shipments
and such shipments, of course. would
not be accepted for stations oil thal
kind For example, shipments Of
bulk potatoes could not be handleu on
the Erie piers in New York.
We must carefully determine Whetn,
er or not bulk shipments, taking an
destinations into consideration. would
net us a saving in handling our pota-
TO shipments. In doing this we must
= 3ear in mind that, IN diverting cars
IN transit. it would be impossible ior
YOU to divert a bulk shipment TO some
point where there were on facilities
for handling potatoes in bulk ana you
would thus be restricted to close mar,
kets where potatoes could be handled
. in bulk"
Bags. You must quickly know your
bag requirements and order wlthou
delay. Prices are now advancing anc
will still go higher In doing TINS
hear in mind. the food administrator
grain corporation has established
differential in its buying basis of whea
in bags over wheat in bulk of &c pei

condition when delivered with th'
