SUPPLIES GREATER OWING TO
MORE FAVORABLE WEATHER
AND PRICES SAG.
COMMISSION HOUSES
BUY ON DOWNTURN
Absence of Selling Pressure Results in
Ascent in Oats, After Show of
Weakness at Outset - Provision
Trade is Small and Prices Hold
Steady.

Chicago, April 10. - Favorable
weather had a bearish effect today
or corn. Receipts were large. On
the decline commission house turned
to the buying side and brought about
a reaction. Opening prices, which
were unchanged to q cents lower,
with May at S1.27 and July at s1.4sA
to s1.50A, were followed by a moder-
ate general upturn.
A more pronounced break took place
later, but again the market rallied.
Prices closed unsettled. at $l.271s for
May and s1.495s to s1.49A for July,
with the market as a whole Is cent
off to Is cent advance.
Oats.
Absence OF selling pressure allowed
oats to ascend after some weakness
at the outset. The initial sag was
due to sympathy with corn. After
opening Is to a and IS cents off,
with May at S31a to $50, prices rose
to well above Saturdays closing
level.
Provisions.
Big supplies of hogs had only a
transient depressing influence on
provisions. Trade was small.

Feminine Land Army Is Ready to Toll
nt Mems Wages.

San Francisco, Cal--AU able-bod-
led women over ! years Of age who
will be available for farm work in
1919 are to be registered in Northern
California during the coming winter,
If plans made at conference of the
county chairmen, and advisory board
of the womens land army of America,
Northern California district, are real
lied.
The women's land army is ready to
fill all demands for women workers
for farms, packing houses and can
neries this season, it was announced
after the conference.
Mrs. Katherine p. Edison, member
of the land army's advisory board, and
executive officer of the state indus
trial welfare commission, said that
standards of wages, housing and
hours had been fixed, and that no dis
turbance of labor conditions would
result from the employment of wo-
men.
The going wage" is demanded for
the women workers sent out by the
army, said Mrs. Edison, and their serv-
ices will be offered in wage dispute
cases only when male workers refuse
the awards of United States media
tors.
Mrs Sydney Joseph of Berkeley,
chairman, explained that, while a 81
minimum is fixed for women's land
army corps workers, they must be
given the wage commonly paid male
workers. Other regulations announced
include:
A standard eight-hour day, overtime
not to exceed two hours at the rate of
one and quarter times the regular
wage, and living conditions conform
ing to the state housing and immi-
grafton commissions standards.
Methods to register women for har-
vesting 1919 crops will be determined
at later conference, it was an
nounced.

mems army has the Endorsement of
the United States department of labor,
to have the lighter forms of farm and
the state immigration and housing

GOOD SHUGKS MAKE
CORN WEEVIL PROOF
Pests viii Starve Rather Than Force
Their Way Through Well
Covered Ears.

Washington, D. c., September e.
Weevils, which cause losses of thou
sands of bushels of corn every year in
the South, will starve rather than
force their way through good shuck
covering. This was determined in la
boratory Investigations conducted by
specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture who made
number of tests to determine the mer-
its of shucks as - means of prevent
ing damage to ear corn. The depart
ment specialists suggest that in the
selection of seed corn this fall atten-
ton be given to the choice of ears
having well-formed, extended shucks
A report of the investigations in con-
tanned in a recent department publ
cation, Bulletin 7OS.
Field invetigation showed 40 per
cent more weevil infestation in corn
with poor shucks than in that having
good shucks without worm holes.
Storage Investigations showed SO per
cent more weevil infestation in corn
with good shucks. than in that with
good shucks without worm holes. 1t
was found that there are other advan-
tages in having ears we'll protected
by shucks The tests showed 8 per
cent. more rotten, 16 pes cent. more
discolored. and IS per cent. more
worm-moldy ears in poor than in good
| ones.
