CHICAGO GRAIJ AND PROVISIONS.
Liberal Selling by Longs Offsets Crop News
of Bullish Character.

Chicago, Aug. S.--Correct anticipation that
the government crop report would have
decidedly bullish aspect made the corn mar
ket today average higher. Prices closed
strong at Sc to 10 net advance. with Sep
tember S1.s2Md162% and October $1.64@
1.e4b. Oats finished @Kc up In pro-
visions the outcome varied from l2Wl5c
decline to 26c advance.
Despite good rainfalls west and south
west and notwithstanding that the tempera-
lures were somewhat lower the corn mar
ket quickly took an upward swing. Strength
appeared due altogether to gossip current
that big reductions were inevitable In the
government estimates Of probable yield COM
pared with a month ago. As matter OF
fact, the official report. when made pubic
after trading for the day had come to an
end, showed a much more radical cut than
the gossip had suggested. The bulge In
prices, however, led to liberal selling on the
part of longs, who were somewhat influenced
by continued rains in Kansas. but tension in
regard to the government report dominated
values again at the last.
Oats were ruled by the action OF corn.
Trade as whole was light.
Record breaking prices In the hog market
tended to strengthen provisions. Ribs
though. were depressed by sales from deal
ers who simultaneously were buying lard.

enen1ieS!

Do you know that the physical con
ditions on the surface of the earth for
the necessary development and main
tenance Of life are Of a delicate ma
ture? The sun is at the proper dis
lance for regularity in supplying heat
and for limited range in tempera-
ture. If the sun were much nearer or
much farther away the condition on
the earth would be greatly changed.
Then the sun is SO constructed that
it supplies the proper amount Of light
and heat. If the sun were a much hot
ter body or one much colder, the re-
suit would be disastrous.
Water is in great abundance and uni
versally distributed. If the land on
the earth were in one mass and the
water in another there would not be
the diversity Of climate that now ex-
lists.
Then, too, the atmosphere is Of the
proper density and composed of the
essential gasses for the presence of
vegetable and animal life. If there
was more oxygen, carbonic-acid gas,
aqueous vapor, nitrogen or ammonia in
the air, or if there was any less of any
of these, the result would be the most
serious. All Of these are in suitable
preparations for the presence of life.
Lastly there are the alterations of
day and night, the inclination of the
earth's axis, giving seasons and other
phases which combine for the best
conditions. All in all, there are many
things which if but slightly changed
would be detrimental and possibly IA
tai to the existence of life on the earth.
AS it were, our surroundings are so
made that the earth is a delightful
place on which to live-man knows of
no better.
