THE GRAIN MARKETS

CHICAGO, Junes 1S.-Estimates that the planted corn land in the eight largest states had been reduced in extent this year about S,00O,0 ,00O acres made all deliveries of corn jump today to the highest prices yet this season. The market closed strong at 2 7-S to 4 IA cents net gain, with July $I79 1-2 to $1.79 3-4 and Sep tember SLIP 3-4 to 1.73. Oats fin ished 1 3-S to 1 7-Sc up. In provis- ions the outcome ranged from 65c decline to rise of 1-2c.
 Bullish sentiment ruled the corn market as soon as traders understood that the current estimates meant planted acreage this year would be the smallest since 1909. Ideal weath- CT had at first led to drop in values but this influence was almost imme- diately forgotten. Assertions on the part of bear leaders were also in vain that pending the government report July the S,O00,0O0 acre reduction es- innate, equal to the entire acreage of Iowa, was too daring to be trusted. Despite considerable profit taking, the reactions from the top prices of the day were relatively slight.
 Fear of crop damage gave some in dependent strength to oats As in corn, trade was on a large scale.
 Provisions were weak owing to sharp declines in the value of hogs Besides, foreign news concerning lard was bearish.

COUNTY AGENTS ENDORSE
 THRIFT IN ARKANSAS
Advisers to Farmers Show the Neces.
 sty to Work and to Save.

The county agents of Arkansas wno are perhaps in closer contact Witn the agricultural interests of Ar. kansas than any other class of men Tn the recent convention held at Lit tie Rock, adopted strong resolutions in behalf of the Thrift Campaign in augurated by the United Statee Treas ury Department.
 These county agents. who are ex perts in all branches of agriculture conferred with the actual producers Tn every county in the state and real ize the capabilities of each county. The following resolution was adopted.
 "Bo it resolved, that the County Agents of Arkansas, in convention as. sembled, hereby express their strong belief in the national and individual advantages to be gained through thrift and systematic saving and heartily support the movement which has for its object the making of a thriftier and more contented people.
 Be it further resolved, that the County Agents recommend to all their friends in the State of Arkansas that they extend their loyal and ac- tive support to the Thrift Campaign of 1919."

This is real bargain day for United States government securities. Every resident of Missouri, Arkansas and Kentucky is urged by officials of the War Savings Organization to join with the truly thrifty and invest right now, these closing days of August, so that they can save money. Some will be richer by $2 if they follow this advice and spend wisely. Others will save a cent, and "a penny saved is penny earned!"
 Investors in Treasury Savings Ger tificates, in denominations of $1,000 can purchase these new securities to- day for S836. If they wait until Sep temher they lose $2, for the price arbitrarily advances on that date to SS3S.
 Treasury Savings Certificates, in denominations of $100, are sold today for $S3.60. Investors have until mid night. August 31, tS get them at this price. for they advance September l 10 sS3.80.

There are some truck operators
whose cargoes are entirely of one ar
ticle-such as barrels, cases, bundles
or kegs-and for these the ton mile
unit would not be so servicable as a
single unite for the goods the carry.
For these the same measure of haul
age may be effected by substituting
for the ton the unit best suited TO
measure their delivery system.

TON MILEAGE BIC
THING on TRUCKS

Ton mileage is one the things a
truck owner ought to know how to
compute in order to be able to make
proper estimates of truck performance.
When he can figure out the ton mile
age OF each Of his trucks he is in
position TO compare the operating
costs Of the various makes OF trucks
in his fleet or to compare the cost of
truck haulage with horse and wagon
delivery.
The method OF computing ton mile
age is very simple, says a local truck
dealer. In making the computation il
Is apparent that two methods OF haul
ing must be considered one case be-
ing where the whole load is carried the
fun distance and the other where parts
OF the load are taken off or put on at
various points along the trip.
Just as there are these two kinds of
loads. there are two units Of measure
ments. For the load that IS carried
the full distance there is the measure
ment known as the absolute ton mile
and for the load that Is dropped piece
meal In the trucks journey there is
the commercial ton-mile.
The absolute ton-mile is a ton car
ried one mile. n truck carries four
tons one mile the ton mileage is four
-Four tons carried four miles makes
sixteen ton miles. This method of
computation is 80 simple that the truck
owner can readily work out his ton

mileage on trucks that leave the whole
load at the end of the trip.
But for the trucks that make partial
deliveries the commercial ton mile has
been adopted as the unit of measure
ment. AS most trucks operate under
this plan this is the unit which will be
employed in most cases. In order TO
obviate the necessity of weighing the
goods iHen off at each delivery a sim
pie rule of averages has been devised
which gives the ton miles with suffi-
cient exactness for the purposes re-
quired.
The first step in arriving at the ton
miles on such trip is to compute the
average tons. This is found by divid-
ing the number Of tons hauled by the
number Of deliveries. If a truck car
rying four tons made five deliveries,
the average tons for the trip would be

4 The reduction of the crew meant
the laying off of approximately $50
men, most of them ship carpenters
and joipers. The force is expected
to remain at it's present size for sew
eral months, and it is possible that
the two contracts suspended may be
reinstated, as has been done in other
yards, inasmuch as No. 81 was about
40 per cent completed, No. SO about
25 per cent completed, and most OF
the material for them had been de

Coupled with the orders affecting
the local yard were orders to stop
work on hulls Nos. SO and 81 at the
company's yard at Anacortes. which

STATE MAY ENLARGE
CAPITOL GROUNDS
PURCHASE OF STEVENS PROP.
ERTY AND HOSPITAL BLOCK
FlAVORABLY REGARDED.

II. as is most probable, the capitol
commission adheres to the east and
west plan, or the one Governor Ernest
Lister favors, for the erection of the
capitol group of buildings, strong
effort likely will be made to have the
Governor Isaac I. Stevens property at
Eleventh and Main streets and the
block OF land, occupied by St. Peters
hospital included in the capitol
grounds.
A strong sentiment is developing in
favor Of including the Stevens prop.
erty, both on sentimental grounds and
because 1t is declared to be necessary
to finish out the capitol grounds. The
original residence of Washington's
first territorial governor stands on
these grounds and the property still is
held by the Stevens estate.
Many old-timers have written let
ters asking that steps be taken to pre-
serve the historic mansion and to add
the Stevens block to the capitol
grounds.
To properly carry out the parking
about the capitol buildings the st. Pc.
ters hospital sites is needed. With
these two pieces of land added 1t is
urged that the gubernatorial mansion
which must be moved from its pres
ent location anyway and very likely
will ultimately be succeeded by 9
more pretentious building-should be
located on the Stevens property.
The act of 1917 provided for the
purchase of this extra land and it I.

cient to build him up so that he can
