Wheat Storage Needed.

With the harvesting of Americas
greatest wheat crop soon to be be-
gun. Department of Agriculture
yesterday warned of a possible seri-
Gus shortage in storage facilities.
Stacking is a partial solution to
the grain congestion problem which
every farmer can apply" officials
said. Furthermore. he is likely to
be a gamer by the practice. for
wheat that sweats in the stack, ex-
cept during an unusually dry har-
vest season. will be Of better quality
than IL thrashed from the shock. II
stacked at once after harvest.
weather permitting. the farmer may
then thrash and market the wheat
at his convenience"
Another solution. offered by ofii-
cials. is that the farmers provide
themselves with their own storage
facilities, which they believe can
be done at small expense.

Financial Notes.
Pork 100 Per Cent Higher.

Retail pork prices have jumped
100 per cent since 1913. Labor De-
partment figures show. In 1915 the
total number Of hogs on farms was
about s7.ooo.ooo head. while It now
has jumped to more than 75.ooo.o 600
head.
Similar boosts have not overtaken
retail prices of other meats. Sir
loin steak has jumped only 81 per
cent since 1913; round steak rs per
cent and rib roast but 65 per cent.
Hogs now are selling for more
than $50 per 100 pounds wholesale
at the packing cities. This repre-
sents an increase of nearly IS per
100 pounds since March 1.

creased s3e. 900. 900. The average state

The stock market displayed remark
able vitality today in many issues,
notably in a few specialties and in
the rails of small price per share.
The warnings issued by bankers have
gone unheeded by the general public.
The imitation of currency and the
prospect Of peace infiame the specu-
lative mind to such a degree that
there seems to be no stopping the
market
Bankers May Want stocks.
The bankers who issued the warn
ings are accused of having sold their
stocks and wanting them back. There
may be more truth than poetry in
this charge. AT the moment the bank
ers are wrong. The test of the mar
ket will come with declaration of

Royal Dutch shares asserted them
selves again. Mexican Petroleum was
heavy due to transfer OF speculative
interest from the latter to the former.
The stocks are both of mucn greater
value than any price Wall street has
ever set on either. Investors are not
changing their positions in them. but
the best-informed oil men have both.
In fact, the only way to deal in oil
stock now is to buy an equal number
OF shares of the leading issues. There
is no way to tell in which particular
issue a movement will come, since all
are meritOriOus.
The ideal investment i'm oil will in

EASY TO JUMP FROM
PLANE TO PLANE
Lieut.. Locklar Tells How He Does 1t
And Predicts Mail Relays

Chicago, ILL.,, April 22.-Lieut.
Ormer L. Locklar, the aviator, who
leaped from one airplane to another
while, in full fight, arrived in Chica-
go today in connection with the Lib
erty Loan drive.
''How do you do it?" he was asked.
"Well, it's simple. When my pilot
is running smoothly at not less than
5000 feet l climb down to the axle
of the ground wheels of the plane and
| sit there and wait for the second
machine to fly unler me and both
machines are going virtually at the
same speed, and l drop about two
feet. One foot slips instantly under
an iron support for an exhaust pipe
then / grab it with my hands; that's
all if you do it perfectly"
The daring aviator said he would
not attempt the feat here. He pre-
dicted some day airplahe mail will be
relayed by means-of this stunt.

London, April 23.-German labor

bolshevism that the American navy
probably will abandon any attempt
to do the repair work there.
In one instance forman in charge

workers and ordered them back to
their jobs. The workers threw the
foreman overheard and continued the
card game leaving it to others to res
cue the foreman from the water.

The world is using a tremendous
amount Of trinitrotoluol, the high ex'
plosive Of this war. In fact the sup
plies Of toluol are in some danger

will do about it Is not known, but the

factories employing the sulphite proc

1t appears that the turbentine from
spruce is easily saved at the mills.
and can be readily converted into

Since gallon Of turpentIne per cord

and SIS per barrel is paid for 1t, there
will be some little increase in revenue
for the pulp makers, and the armies
will be enabled to keep on with their

PADUCAH
Local Team Accompanied BY Prof.
HOFFMAN Left Yesterday.

Spring has come. Everywhere one
hears rumors Of baseball. But out
behind the old High School it has
long since ceased to be rumor and
changed into glorious reality. The
shades of Higgins and Brown look
hopefully down on those who carry
the burden of the traditions or the
Orange and the Black. Prof. Grover
G. HOFFMAN can be seen on the field
every afternoon driving his charges
to greater efforts to make this years
team the best that ever represented
the High. There is abundant material
on hand and the spirit of the boys is
the kind that never admits defeat
until the last man is out. In the two
Speer boys High School has a bat
terry that can show any school in
West Kentucky the fine points of the
game. Cantrell at first, tho not as
polished fielder as Hal Chase Of big
league fame, is as good as any in
the High School league. Lyle Croft
at third promises to be star, In
fact the whole team, while mex
perienced, has the "pep' which wins
games.
With the memory of their victory
over the strong Howell team to keep
up their courage, H. H. S. Travelled
over to Paducah yesterday to play
their first real hard game. The Pa
ducah team has always put up hard
scrap and made the best team that
ever played at H. H. S. step lively
to beat them. So High School will
have hard time in their game today
but everybody on the team thinks it.
will win.
Those making the trip were: E.
Speer, F. Speer, Rollo Cantrell, John
Dabney, Joe Steele, Lyle Croft, Will
liam Hooe, Berry Anderson, Geo.
McReynolds, Thos. Curry and Capt.
Lester Cannon. Prof. G. C. Hoffman
accompanied the team.
