STOCK MARKET
HAS ADVANCED

New York, Sept. 14.-substantial
advances in both standard and spec
kulative issues in today's stock mar
ket reflected realization of forecasts
that a better monetary situation
would terminate the speculative SELL
ing which has featured the weeks
trading. The ready response to mod
crate buying indicated that many of
the popular shares had been heavily
oversold during the recent break in
prices Investment buying was fac
tor in stimulating a varied demand
for both accounts. Seasoned dividend
paying stocks of investment grade
scored available advances Of q point,
while the more speculative issues
buying of LibertyIbonds at marked
improvement contributed to the con-
! fident feeling expressed. The close
| was strong. Sales approximated
100000 shares.
| A firmer tendency in the stock
. market at the opening today appar-
emily confirmed opinion expressed in
many quarters that the recent
liquidation by holders of speculative
| stocks had about run its course.
Standard issues, including United
/ States steel, Canadian Pacific, South
ern Pacific and Reading, were high
er by substantial fractions. Numer-
Gus specialties made large fractional
gains including Mexican petroleum,
alcohol, Baldwin and distillers on
moderate Short covering. American
Sumatra tobacco was a notable ex-
ception, falling several points, and

tion making operations of packers in

LIKE BELGIUM
Struggle Against Pan-Ger-
man Plans is Now Being
Waged.

London, Aug. 2S.-(Correspond-
ence Of The Associated Press)-
Esthonia, the former Baltic province
of Russia now dominated by the Ger
mans, is another Belgium, asserts
Professor Antonious Pup, an
Esthonian diplomatic representative
in this country. Esthonians, he de-
struggle against pan-Germanic plans
to unite Esthonia with Germany and
standing firm in defense of Esthonian
independence.
! Summarizing information from
what he described as his unhappy
country" Professor Pup said:
THE position in Esthonia is intoler-
able. Arbitrary rule is the order Of
the day. Press of all the Esthonian
parties has been crushed. All politi-
cal life is suppressed. all meetings for
bidden. Many of the politicians and
ordinary citizens are arrested and
shot The German barons and the
pan -Germanists are ruling the coun-
try.
Democratic self government has
been dissolved. In place Of it new
German bodies are created. German
| language is the official one. 1t is COM
| pulsorily introduced in schools Rus
sian is absolutely forbidden, as also
correspondence in Esthontan. OF the
town councils those in which the ma
| jority before the revolution was Ger

German town council and mayor have
been nominated, and they sent an un-
authorized telegram to Berlin in the
name of the population.

Every sort Of passenger traffic has
been curtailed. There are no Law
courts. Crime Is increasing, especi
ally on account Of the general lack O.

payments, having no money. In tn

WEEKLY GRAIN 8 PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Sept. IA. Corn has
tdmbled in value this week, mainly as
a result of an unexpected big increase
Of the estimated yield for 1918 and
owing to completeness of American
successes in France. Compared with
a week ago, corn prices this morning
were 1 to 1-8 cents net lower, oats
were half a, cent off~to like advance,
with provisions varying from a de
cline of s1.25 to a rise Of 40 cents. Y
Government announcement that the
corn crop this season would probably
amount to 100000 bushels more
than the trade had looked for,
brought about the heaviest single days
setback in prices. Previously the mar
ket had received a sharp jolt from of
fetal notice that beer making would
be stopped, beginning December l.
! The fact that much Of the corn crop
had already escaped danger of frost
counted likewise toward sending the
market downward rapidly when war
advices later made selling pressure
widen out. Bearish effects of railway
hembargoes at Buffalo and elsewhere,
yhowever,' largely counterbalanced here
! by scantiness Of local supplies OF
regular contract grade.
h Government buying gave relative
steadiness to OATS
/ An increase of<8.1 per cent in the
number of hogs being fattened on
farms caused provisions to average

SAVE SEED DCORlQ
FOR NEXT YEAR.
Improvement in Corn .cror
Carried on From Year to
Year in Seed.

Fargo, N. D.. Sept. 14.-Gordon w.
Randlett, head Of the extention de-
partment Of the North Dakota Agri-
cultural college, says save your seed
corn and do it now."
"The improvement made In the
corn crop is carried on from year TO
year in the seed" said Mr.. Randlett
yesterday. "a failure one year means means
losing the progress made and going
back and starting over. Now is the
time to select the seed corn.
1.-THE best way is to so through the
corn field systematically, selecting the
ears that are the type wanted and
that are mature enough. 1t is not
enough, however, to get the kind of
ears wanted, but they must be upon
good stocks. The season being short
there is more need for handling the
corn crop with machinery. which
means that the ears ought to be car
ried high enough on the stock to al
low cutting with binder.
There are several ways of carry
ing the ears to the end Of the field.
One Of these is to take a sack and
tie string or strap from one corner
of the bottom to a corner of the top
and throw the strap over the shoulder
so as to have the opening of the sack
in front. A good many ears can be
carried in this way.
'The seed corn must also be cured
before freezing weather comes. The
Indians managed this by putting the
corn on a platform made Of willow
twigs laid across poles supported on
posts, and as soon as their corn was
dry they brought it in, and before the
white man arrived, they buried it in
the ground. But now they put it into
boxes and keep it in the house. They
never fail to secure seed that grows.
their corn is Of the flint variety and
natures late in August, thus giving it
considerable time to dry before freez-
ing weather comes.
"A good way to cure the corn is to
weave it up with twine and hang it
up in room through which the air
can circulate freely, and as the wealth
er becomes cold if a little artificial
heat can be provided the drying will
go on that much better. 1t can be
spread on the floor but it will not dry
so readily as when it is hung up, the
aim being to have the corn dry before
it freezes, as if the corn freezes when
it contains considerable moisture the
germ is killed. North Dakota was
fortunate this year in being able to
secure good deal of seed from Con-
necticut and Rhode Island that ma
lures early enough to make seed. This
will make a good start for those that
lost their corn last year.
'Some time should be set aside for
saving the seed corn. Do not let II
be put off from day to day until it is
too late"

AMERICANS ARE
HIGH Up AMONG
OTHER SOLDIERS
Men from Other Nations
Pride Themselves on In
tirnacy with Sammies.

Behind the British Lines In France,
Aug. -(Correspondence of the As
sociated Press. ITO an American
visiting the western front in these
stirring times, it is surprise and a
pleasure to note the interest and an
ticipation with which the more active
participation of the Americans is
greeted on every hand.
The Canadian soldiers invariably
adopt the attitude of II told you so"
when the official reports chronicle
American successes. The Australians
also pride themselves on their in
timacy with the Americans, and take
personal pride in every good deed
which the Americans do, as if in some
way they themselves had some share
in it.
| The English Tommies are content to
express delight and satisfaction but
always as if eager to believe the best
and give credit for every excuse. The
Americans, by their unassuming ways
and insistent aggressiveness in the
| line, have won the good will of the
whole imperial British army. }
When German report came in the
| other day of five airplanes brought
down from a patrol of six American
raiders, frank incredulity was express
J sed everywhere. When the American
report verified it, there was nothing in
it but hard luck and basis for
further avening exploits.
The American flying men have a
hard time before them to sustain the
hopes held out for them by their ad-
mirers in the British and Canadian
battalions. The kindly applause show
cred on American methods by the
English newspapers - which have
from the first ignored the mistakes
certain to creep into any war admin
istration-is either accepted in France
as the complete story or is reflec-
tion of the feeling here.
Nowhere was the amity of feeling
between the Americans and the vari-
Gus British units better dem onstrated
than at the recent Dominion day
sports behind the British lines. The
events Of that day are acknowledged
to have been the greatest gala day
celebration ever held in the war area
