RECENT SALES SHOW
CORN MARKET firm
Short Side on Either Corn or Oats
Dangerous with Good Prices.
By JOSEPH PRTTCHARD.

BY JOSEPH thIItHAHD.
Chicago, Feb. 1T.-During the past
few days the fact has been clearly
shown that the short side OF either
corn or oats is a dangerous one. The
shorts have lost money. so they were
obliged to cover outstanding contracts
at losses.
The rank and file Of the speculative
world were impressed with the idea
that with largely increased receipts
of corn and oats prices would sell
downward sharply. The unexpected
happened, as every pound OF both the
coarse grains were eagerly taken by
the regular buyers and the demand
is unsupplied. There was a great deal
OF off-grade corn placed on the market
and the only weakness shown was in
the damaged article.
There are still large orders of both
corn and oats that must be filed with
in a specified time and this is not like
ly to have made any big price decline
in either one of those grains.
The government has made large ad-
ditional purchases of meats and lard
and this has not only driven many
speculative shorts to cover, but it has
created a demand from investors and
the underlying conditions are probably
now stronger than in many months.

tempting offer, but DR.. Acheson de-
clined to consider II on the ground
that he was neutral United States not
being then one of the sbeiligerents. but
as a neutral he was In London under
the protection Of the British nag. Sub
sequently It was learned that Germany
in its own way had established plants
for the manufacture of the lubricant
according to the Acheson formula so
that when this airplane was captured
and the lubricant analyzed 1t seemed
to be demonstrated that Germany was
using for her motors the Acheson for
mula.
Undoubtedly as speedily as possible
the authorities under Gen. Square at
Washington will, either through as
surances that a sufficient amount Of
castor oil can be manufactured In the
United States or else through the ac-
ceptance Of other lubricants solve this
very important problem for the air
plane. just now 1t is regarded as
certain that unless the airplanes are
provided with an adequate and per-
manent supply of perfect lubricating
material the Liberty Motors will not
be able to give any special service in
aiding the United States and our allies
to end the war.

The deceased was the widow of
Adolph Diedel and for many years
conducted a notion store on the
