ORIGIN OF DOGS IS
 STILL A MYSTERY
(Fron 'Pets")

The ancestry of the dog has been the: occasion of much controversy. Many: naturalists have considered that it is: descended from a single ancestor. such {: as the common wolf of Europe. Darwin, !: however, leans toward the theory of multiple origin and advances much convincing proof in support of his; belief. It is widely known that many savage tribes have dogs which appear to be simply half tanned representa- tives of the particular wild dog-like animals inhabitating the same regions.
 The dogs of the American plains In! dians closely resemble the small prairie- wolf, or coyote; the husky of the north. country is plainly not far removed from
 the gray wolf; the German sheep dog
 and the Samoyede are strikingly wolf-
 like in appearance. Whether our pres
 ent dogs are the result of crossing
 these many simple derivatives of
 wolves and jackals among themselves,
 or whether there was an original an- cestral dog. now extinct. with which the blood of other species has become mingled, we have not yet been able to determine though so many primordial animal remains have come to light. n According to St. George Mivart. the dingo is the only wild dog still exist ing which meets the requirements of an ancestor of our modern breeds. This species is found throughout Australia and fossil bones which have been | found show its presence there from very early times.

RAIN

CHICAGO. Aug. 3-Auspicious war news and week end liquidation brought about nearly continuous downs today in the value of corn. Prices closed nervous, 1Ac to 21s net lower, with August s1.55A and September s1.571s to $1.57H. Oats lost 15sc to 23sc and provisions 5c to 35c.
 General selling and lack of support characterized the corn market through out the session. A majority of longs apparently took the view that both the military outlook and the crop outlook status had made the time opportune for unloading. Tie increasing rapidity of the allied successes in France and the indications that dry sections of the corn belt would be relieved by rain were equally sources of weakness. The only rallies which occurred were brief
 Free hedging of the new crop weak ened the oats market. Receipts here were heavy.
 Provisions receded with grain and hogs. Transactions were few and small.

FINANCES AND MARKETS
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-The hollow character of todays stock market may be guaged from the fact that transac- tions in the two hours of the session barely touched 10000 shares.
 Of this meagre total, United States Steel furnished about thirty per cent relinquishing it's half point gain at the close. Pool perpetrated a new drive against the shorts in General Motors at an extreme advance of 6 and one half points.
 Rails were dull to the point of ex- tinction, but few specialties such as tobacco, oils, coppers and issues of no definite description gained one to two points.
 The bank statement threw no light on the weeks heavy financial operations, actual loans showing only a nominal increase. while actual excess reserves decreased by slightly more than ST. 100000 Bonds were steady; liberty 31as again reaching par, although suc- ceeding issues eased slightly. Total sales. par value. were S2,S00.0O0. Old United States bonds were unaltered on call during the week.

FINANCIAL REVIEW,

NEW YORK, Aug. 3.-Stagnation was the overshadowing feature of the week in the stock market, operations falling to the smallest total of the year. Prices were firm in the main.
 Taxation and the policy of the gov ernment toward the railroads again constituted the principal causes which made for restraint. Reports that the administration may soon announce schedule of war taxes ranging from sixty to eighty percent were current.
 Transportation shares were irregular or heavy, when at all quoted. The in- spring war news served to effect a measure of equilibrium together with the extremely favorable quarterly statement of the United States Steel corporation and the good annual re- port of the Southern Pacific company.
 In neither case, however, was there more than languid response. Activity of pools diminished visibly.
 Call money was nominally lower, actually holding at the long continued rates of five to six per cent. Time funds were limited to renewals of loans for small amounts, all at six percent. Foreign exchange has become merely perfunctory by reason of an extension of international regulation

NEW TOPOGRAPHIC
MAP OF THE VALLEY
Government Chart Gives Interesting
Data on Eastern Hale Of
Benton County

The Couricr-Reporter is in receipt
of a new topographic map of the area
known as the Pasco quadrangle recent
ly published by the United States ge-
illogical survey. The eastern half Of
Benton county is included in the map.
This map represents by far the most
complete survey ever made of this sec
ton of the state. 1t shows clearly ev-
cry physical feature of the quadrangle
that the character of every part of it,
as well as the shapes of the hills and
valleys, can be seen at glance, and
the altitude of any particular point
can be easily determined. The relief
of the country is graphically shown by
means of brown contour lines, each of
which represents a certain altitude
above the sea. The traveller walking
along the course shown by one Of the
contour lines will go neither up hill
nor down, but on level. That such a
map is of prime value to the engineer
who may be laying out railroad or
trolley route, highway, drainage or
irrigation system goes without saying,
but it is also of geat value to the
average citizen. Farmers and auto
mobilists, for instance, buy thousands
Of the maps. In addition to the land
and water features the map shows, in
black all the works Of man-roads,
bridges, towns, houses, etc.

First-Householders to use not t.
exceed total of one and one-hal1
pounds Of wheat products per person
This means not more than IL Tbs
OF victory bread containing the re.
CURED percentage of substitutes, and
about one-half pound of cooking flour

bined.
Second-Public eating places and
clrjs to observe two .wheatless days
per week monday and Wednesday,
as at present.
In addition thereto not to serve in
the aggregate total of more bread
stuffs, maraconi, crackers, pastry, pie,
cake and wheat breakfast cereals con-
tanning a total of more than two
ounces of wheat flour co any one guest
at any one meal; no wheat products to
be served unless specially ordered;
public eating establishments not to
buy any rnGrc than six pounds OF wheat
products per month per guest, thus
conforming with limitations requested
of the householders.

AMI rot more than one-quars," Of a
bare! to any country customer at any
one time, and in 10 case to sell wheat
products without the sale of an equal
weight of other cereals.
Fourth-We ask the bakers and the
grocers to reduce the volume of VIC
tory bread sold by delivery of the three
quarter pound loaf wnere one pound
was sold before, and corresponding
proportions in other weights.
We also ask the bakers not to in
crease the amount of their wheat flour
purchases beyond 20 per cent of the
average monthly amount purchased in
the four months prior to March 1.
Observation-Disclosures using wheat
products for non-food purposes should
cease such use entirely.
Sixth-There is no limit upon the
use Of other cereals, flours and meals,
corn, barley, bockwheat, potato flour,
etc.
"Many families thruout the land are
now using no wheat products what
ever except a very small amount for
cooking purposes and are doing SO in
perfect health and satisfaction. There
is no reason why all of the American
people who are able to cook in their
own households cannot subsist perfect

a further limitation of distribution
and we shall place at once restrictions
on distribution which will be adjusted
from time to time to secure as nearly

able to relax such restrictions. Until
then we ask the necessary patience,
