CORN PRICES ADVANCE.
Chicago Market Anticipates Grain
Needs In Europe.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1s.--Sharp new ad-
vances IN the corn market to-day re-
suited chiefly from attempts to antlcl-
pate the price effects of the hunger
necessities Of Europe. Quotations closed
firrn. 7% TO 3Tsc. net higher, with De-
csm!lAr S1.2Sas to Sissy and January
sL29% to s1.30. Oats finished IN to

unchanged figures to a rise of a5c,
Oats strengthened with corn. HedE-
Ing pressure, though, checked the gains.
Besides export bids we're somewhat out
of line.
Provisions were lifted by the upturns
In grain and hogs. The transient break
In corn led, however, to a reaction.

State Board of Health.

Under the direction OF the state
hoard of health there has been COM
pleted by the nurse in charge or the
after-care of infantile paralysis pa
tents a census OF the patients seen
at the clinics conducted in this state

state institutions.

The reports OF the various state IN
stitutions for the month discuss the
manner in which the recommends
tons OF the federal food administra'
ton are being followed. Al the in
dustrial school at Vermont there are
regularly three meatless days a week
and some weeks they have four meat
less days. As substitutes for meat.
fish is used on two days, vegetables
the third day and occasionally mac
aroni on the fourth day. Foo Two
weeks previous 60 the $3.50 order
and ever since, the school has oeen
using the other cereals in sd5stitu-
ton for wheat 10 the extent OF oOTo'
For one whole week corn bread was
the only bread served. The use OF
sugar has been curtailed so that only
about two thirds of the amount form
erly used is now being consumed
At the state hospital the consump-
ton of wheat -four has been reduced
TO about SOC OF what 1t was before
the use OF substitutes was com
menced. To quote the report OF the
superintendent: The National toou
Administration has asked for bread
containing 20e6 cereals other than
wheat We have found in our ex-
periments that using ordinary white
hominy feed we can use as high as
25ee and still get very satisfactory
bread. This bread is palatabie, OF
good texture and nutritious. The
consumption OF wheat -four is also re-
duced by the use Of oat products,
graham, rye -four, corn meal ana
buckwheat -four There has been
saving in sugar of 1900 pounds
month.
AT the school for feeble minded at
Brandon the children have been hav-
ing 10 wheatless and II meatless
meals a week, which is compensated
by the much more extensive use OF
milk OF which the institution has a
large quantity The consumption OF
sugar has been reduced TO two pounds
per person per month
The problem OF conservation at the
state prison and house Of correction
is particularly difficult as there the
most of the inmates are performing
manual labor, and thus require plenty
OF substantial food. At the state pris-
on in bread making $50 OF white
-four is used. For breakfast and sup
pers other breads than wheat bread
are used so that the consumption OF
white -four is not over 500 OF the
normal consumption in the past Dur
ing the last three months the average
consumption of sugar for zoo persons
has been 3s4 pounds OF granulated and
1874 pounds of brown sugar per month,
an average OF 2lh pounds per person
per month of brown and graduated
combined
For some time bread had been the
main item of food at the house OF cor
rection and consequently substitu-
ton has been difficult However
since the federal order an attempt to
comply with the $3.50 basis has been
made although because of a shortage
of cereals for the substitutes the per
centage has not been axactly reached
as vet. Sugar has been practically
eliminated from the diet OF the in
mates.

Commissioner Of Agriculture.

During the month there have been
held is farmers meetings in connec-
ton with creameries working under
agreement with the department OF
agriculture at which the average at
tendance was Go. Plans have been
formulated for the organization of
a farm war council for increased food
production campaign, and F. II.
Bedford OF Bradford has been APP
pointed as farm labor agent to work
on the problem OF securing farm Ia
Dor. The following quotation is
from the report OF the commissioner
relating to the insect suppression
work
Scouting work carried on shows
that the State is practically free from
the browntal moth. In 1918 the
eastern border OF the State was
badly infested In 1914 the In
festation reached its greatest
heights and several men were EN-
ployed during the winter to cut on
and burn all the nests which could
be found in the infested areas. The
total expenditure for this work was
IS, 2G316. In 1915 an expenditure OF
about half this sum was sufficient TO
clean the infested areas and the cost
has decreased every year since. We
NAV expect a further infestauon.

New Hampshire If weather condi-
lions are favorable during the pc
Rod when the insect is in the flying

slight infestation of the tent caterpil-

great damage to fruit trees for sew

Wheat 1t is evident from the CONVEX
sation of farmers who are in the otliC I
now and then, that nearly all are plan
ming to sow little wheat. Many OF the
men are asking about the requirements
as concerns tillage and seed and for that
reason | take this time to make lew
statements regarding the crop. In the
first place, test the seed for termination
If YOU have not the means ami '<nowl-
edge at hand, Just send sample to the
county agent and he will test it for you
Good seed is vital point. Native grown
seed is preferable but some will have to
use western seed, as the native supply is
small. The price is around $3.50 pei
bushel An ordinary seeding calls for
about six to seven pecks TO the acre. II
the land is unusually rich, four to five
necks will be enough. and If the land Is
rather poor the crop will be better II two
bushels per acre are used. Wheat wiil
do best on an early soil that has been
cropped at least one year, SOD broken

failure of the crop. Fall blowing Is i'm

be packed better and make an earlier
seed bed. If manure was used on the
previous crop it is not advisable to use
more on the wheat this year, but use acid
phosphate or a grain or corn mixed goods
at the rate of 200 to 400 pounds pei
acre. Very early seeding IS important
Wheat is a cool weather crop and II
sowed late, in May or June, the hot
weather Of the last of June and July

The Production of Fuel Briquets.

United States in 1917 was 4O6.S36 net
tons, valued at s2.233, ssSs, an increase
over 1916 of lll,7Ol tons or 80 per cent

According to C. L. Lesher, of the Unit
