meet with Mrs. Z. Z. Maze,
uincy street, Monday evening. All in
terested are urged to be present,
There is an increasing demand in
North Topeka for business houses
and residences. Several business en-
terprises have been prevented from
going into business on the North side
because of the lack of suitable loca-
tons.
Residences are also almost impos-
sible to secure, and families are liv-
ing in rooms or two or three sharing
the same house.
There are a number of houses on
the North side that have been vacant
for months and are not in rentable
condition. If repaired, these houses
could be rented without difficulty
And extensive repairs are not neces-
sary in most cases. While modern
houses are most in demand. a house
in good condition at moderate rent
would not remain vacant.
A sufficient number of business
houses and residences to meet the
growing demand would be money in
1.-The pockets of the men who would
make these investments. North To-
peka has outgrown her housing ca
pacity and if the town is to continue
growing new buildings and residences
must be built.

I0DAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, June 2s.-CORN-Actual sign
ing of the peace treaty failed outright to.
day to influence the corn market. Instead,
prices today were ruled by the necessity
of month-end liquidation on the part of
holders Of July contracts. This Iiquida-
ton had depressing effect on the market
as a whole, the treaty signing having been
anticipated long beforehand. Opening
prices, which varied from &c off to l2c
advance with September $1.T5% to $1.75%
and December 81. 5315 TO sissy, were fol-
lowed by a slight general upturn- and
then by a setback all around to well below
yesterdays finish.
The market closed unsettled. &c net
lower to sc advance with September S175ss
to $1.75% and December $1.535s to Sissy.
OATS-Oats were dull and weak with
corn After opening unchanged to Ae low
er. including September at 6S1sc to 69c.
the market hardened a trifle and then
turned sharply down grade.
PROVISIONS-Provisi held steady
higher quotations on hogs together VITA
assertions that export trade would be en-
larged were against any declines.
