DAILY MARKETS
Furnished by The Trans Mississippi
Grain Company, II. H. Audley,
Manager. Phone $40.

Chicago, Nov. 3.-COrn Short COW
ering by country commission houses
featured the entire session and Offer
ings came largely from commission
house longs who were profit taking. At
times the market had all the appear
ances of an oversOld pit condition and
at no time except at the close was there
any surplus of pit offerings. The prin-
cipal cause for the advance was the
strength in cash which advanced from
2 to Z cents. Other primary markets
We're moderately higher but Chicago
lead. The map was rather unfavor-
able Cold weather is predicted with
PRECIPITATION either in the form of rain
or snow. There IS no prospect Of in
creased country movement. owing to
the car situati and there is decd
ed shortage in the cash. While there
may DE some temporary reactions, the
trend of the market appears upward
and the large outstanding short inter
est has not yet covered.
Oats:-PrOft taking on the bulge
was enormous and leading longs put
weight of oats into the pit to prevent
any sharp advance. The cash markets
were to 2 higher, but eastern sales
moderate. 1t looks as if these oats
would stay in rut until cash demand
from the east becomes insistent.
The Produce Trade.
That the average hen offers from SO
to 100 eggs Il year as her contribution
to the three-quarter billion dollar poul-
try crop, which the United States is
now producing annually, is stated by
government estimators. 1t is probable,
however that the poultry crop for 1919
will total nearly billion dollars. This,
if realized will mean an increase of
over 30 per cent over 1917. This is
due both to greater production Of pro-
duce and greater values.
Activity in the produce trade for the
past week is summarized as follows:
Butter.
The general feeling that prices on
fresh butter have reached the ceiling
has caused heavy demand for storage
butter, and sales on the storage COM
modify this fall are exceeding previous
years. This is tending to equalize
prices on fresh and storage stocks.
The rain cloud is the creamery mans
barometer, and increases in milk pro-
duction have followed the path of the
general rains Of the past fortnight.
Production is increasing in nearly
every territory. The butter market has
declined slightly during the week.
Poultry.
Poultry consumption has been I'M
usually heavy, and receipts ut produce
houses are growing steadily, as is
usual during the latter part Of October
and early November. Small reductions
in the market have been recorded.
Eggs.
With continued decreases in egg pro-
duction, storage stocks have stabilized
the market, and no important changes
in prices have been experienced. The
demand for eggs has continued heavy.

ran out OF the tube into receptacle
placed for that purpose. At the same
tine the food was presented, he rang
bell. After long time, he failed toi
present the food but rang the. bell.
The saliva went on flowing Just the
same. A man smokes an after dinner
cigar. He says he feels better to do
so. Seems 10 be a sort of benedietion
to a meal Smoking is a reflex condi-
ton. There are all kinds of them.
And every day wonderful contribu-
tons to sce,nce are being made which
help us to understand much which
has puzzled us all our lives.
The sex problem in schols is fun
damental problem which should be
faced. If you don't believe in it, read
the writing on walls and walks done
b. school children. Read the notes
which are passed in school. Watch the
children when they are alone. Chi
dren are neither moral or immoral.
They are immoral and no amount of
teaching or preaching will change it.
Why the abnormal sex relations in
school? We don't know and so we
ignore them. If you want to get the
scientific attitude, face the facts good
or bad. It's the only way you'll be;
worth penny a teachers.
Nature isn't a good, old kind moth !
so. She's harsh, cruel! Watch
the slant eyed cat and the poor rob-
in. Then watch the robin and the
poor worm. And there's war, Who
can explain any of these things? Why
don't we take the scientific attitude?
If call spade a spade will you for !
gvie me? Look how we camouflage
everything in society. See how Ma
ture calls us to build a palace by the
sea and then sends a hurricane to
sweep us away. Whence comes the
urglngs of the subconscious soul?
These are the biggest things in life
and the study and the care for them
should start early in the child's ca
reer. Prif. Sprowls stopped in the !
midst OF his vigorous talk but prom
Used more later in the afternoon. DR.. |

with man-iout man with woman and
woman with mani"
Prof. Sprowls says it is difficult to
explain human nature. That from
birth TO five years is the most impor-
tant period of development, and that
the psychology of the unconscious has
been recognized for some tine.
Touching on the giving OF ideas he
said it was impossible to give anyone
an idea-that the best that could be
done was to stimulate and stir up
ideas ina personality. 81 can't give
you nv ideas and you can't give me
yours. You can't give child knowI-
edge or ideas, as though he were a
vase with large open top. Some
talk about making impressions on an
other. The mind doesn't work that
way"
Prof. Sprowls touched in most alb.
sorbng manner on the fundamentals
of human nature and believed that ed
ucation should be started around
these. He believed these were the in
stinct to get food and the sex instinct.
Prof. Sprowls was scheduled to give
lecture on sex education while here
and he made good start this morn
ing, promising to finish before the
close OF the afteronon session. Some
believe the instinct to activity is the
greatest. Others that the instinct for
religion is the greatest. Right here
the professor stated there was no such
animal as an atheist-that every man
had a religion of some sort and that
even the West man of the streets
swore by some Heaven or God. Con-
tinuing on his beief that the food and
sex instincts are the greatest in the
life of human, Praof. Sprowls elab-
GRATED in detail.
Soldiers when shut away from home
relations are abnormal in their sex
relations. When out in battle this is
lost for time and the food instinct
comes uppermost Feeding our SOL
diers in various ways was tested out
in this war in an interesting manner.
In order ii wean the man from civil
ian life gradually, unique feeding
bore excellent results. For ten days
these men were given the best of foon
but while on the first day the food
was Of unusual quantity and quality.
on the second day the food was not
quite so plentiful and gradually it
was lessened until at the end of ten
days the soldier was on satisfying ra.
tons more in keeping with his new
work. The food instinct in war there
fore, had been recognized as one of
the most powerful instincts.
Prof. Sprowls touched lightly on the
reflex conditions of mind. In plain
English he put forth the theory that
many of the things we do, we do
through unconscious reflex action. He
told an interesting story as example
of an experiment with dog. A
learned Russian scientist selected a
healthy dog and tied him in a small
yard. He cut the dogs throat and in
serted tube so that when food was
presented to the animal the saliva

NO DESPOTISM

Washington, Nov. S.-Character-
izing all strikes as industrial barba-
rism and paving the way for indus
trial despotism in this country the
Senate Labor committee to examine
into the Steel strike reported that
both employers and employees were
under obligations to the public and
that neither had any right to settle
the problems between them in their
own way with entire disregard for the
rights of the people.
The Committee recommended a
plan for the solution of the differ
ences as was used during the war in
the creation of the War Industries
Board who would act in the interest
of all the parties and settle disputes
between Capital and labor.
