Statement, made by Major W. W. Sale
The teachers have, 50 far as can be

I'm urgent appeal 10 the school

that they cooperate with the govern

The purpose Of such an index is
evident. When a branch OF the service

officials may At once locate such men
1t seems 10 I've tho opinion Of the
authorities in Washington that the
school-tcach srs OF the United states
are better suited FOR this form Of SER
vice Than for any other. Some time
ago the teachers asked that they be
given duties which they Nigh, per-
form mos; efficiently. and they were
shortly after assigned the task OF

BIG CORN RECEIPTS
FAIL TO HURT PRICE

Chicago, Feb. 1S.--Corn today con-
tihued in strength, notwithstanding
that receipts had materially increased
according TO some leaders the action
OF the market simply illustrated the
extent OF the demand. Sellers were
scarce. After opening &c higher,
with March not quoted and May at
lZ6@s, prices hardened little more,
and then underwent a slight reaction.
The demand was explained as due
largely to general desire to accumu-
late a reserve before the sharp de-
crease expected when farmers become
busy with field work. The close was
unsettled, March at 1.275s and May at
1858, with the final range as whole
&c off to 1sc up, compared with Sat-
urday's latest figures.
Active commission house buying ad-
vanced oats to new high price levels
for the session. Opening figures,
which varied from the same as Sat-
urday's close to Zee down, with May
at 1915 to S312, were followed by a
ropid upturn.
Higher quotations on hogs gave
strength to provisions. Very little
was for sale until good advance had
been established
