THE BIC FARM SHOW

ToledO-The educational values of
the National Farmers Exposition,
which Is held annually in the Term
inal Auditorium, Toledo, is attested
by the immense number of war gar
dens and increased acreage put to
crops during the trying period Of the
war.
H. V. Buelow, director general of
the exposition, is in receipt of many
hundreds of letters telling of the good
the writers reaped from the lectures
on soil care and the proper handling
OF crops as they came to maturity.
Director Buelow says that with the
success of the previous expOsitions
and their effect on the winning of the
Farmers Exposition which is to be
held at the Toledo Terminal Audi
tOrium from December to II, will
be Of greater value owing to the con-
tinued high prices of all kinds of
produce.
How the various states and the
United States government officials
are endeavoring to curb the mount
ties will be among the big features Of
creased acreage must be continued
and the intensive tilling Of the soil
will be needed are to be among the
topics discussed thoroughly at the
show by speakers from the boards of
agriculture from Ohio, Michigan, In
diana and other Central States as
well as by lecturers from the depart
ment of agriculture of the United
States.
While these lectures are being given
there will be on exhibition one of the
largest array of farm power machin-
cry of all kinds ever brought togeth-
er. The display of tractors will num-
Der nearly 40 makes, embracing
models from every factory in the
United States.
There will be milking machinery
of every description. Machines for
road building and road repair. Bind
ers, cultivators, tilling machines and
other necessities Of the farm.
The live stock display will include
only premium winners from the var
iOus state fairs. The entries OF
blooded cattle, swine, sheep and pet
stock thus far received will necessi-
tate the erection of an addition to the
vast Terminal Auditorium to house
them.
This building will be equipped with
an up-tO-date dairy appliances thus
giving patrons an inside view into
the operation of a modern dairy on
the farm. This building is expected
to be completed before the open.ng
of the exposition In December.

THE MARKET TREND
STOCKS.

Call rates, reaching 10 and Is
per cent, again became prominent
factor in the stock market. The
high rates were attributed to the
present abnormal volume of general
business the country over, requir-
ing a large amount of money, and
the banks desire to restrict specu-
lation. Government demands have
relaxed. On the other hand, flood
of new security issues, some of for
eign origin, will deplete available
supplies of money. The steel strike
has ceased to be prime factor in
market calculations. Wall street is
inclined TO be skeptical regarding
the industrial conference. 1t has
expected no startling development
and no decisive action. The con-
ference has. therefore, figured less
prominently than labor troubles at
New York and elsewhere.
Definite action is expected soon to
remove the railroad problem from
the foreground and end the uncer-
fainty created by delay in ratifica-
ton Of the peace treaty. Untitled
orders of the steel corporation show
another increase. Nevertheless,
traders see danger in strongly
bullish attitude and one leading au-
thority advises caution without
peSSimiSm."

LIVESTOCK

Hog prices have continued on the
toboggan, touching new low points
-on one occasion the lowest since
March. 1917. Quality of runs has
been poor. Large receipts caused
many sharp breaks, and il is believ-
ed the supply will increase daily, as
the new crop is moving. According
to some well informed observers the
slump is not yet over. The proper
tion of light weight stuff has shown
a liberal increase. Weak cattle mar
kets likewise have been witnessed at
times. The quality of runs in this
branch of the market also has been
poor. Corn-fed cattle show the most
strength. Country shippers have
been hit by the break in prices.

The corn market has been unset

seen favor in the weather, which
might restrict the movement, which

further encouragement. The bears,
however, took advantage of the

taking every precaution to intercept

II is possible that regulations may be
changed covering the. mailing OF

on the lookout.

Of o1icials as tips began to appear in

as to details. But the suspicion was
strengthened by the findings of Owen
Eagan of the bureau Of combust stibles
of The New York department. Eagan
examined bomb making material dis
covered by New York police in a re-
cent raid. He came to the conclusion
that terrorists are preparing a new
crop of bombs.
Reds of known direct action type
are being shadowed where there is
insufficient evidence to arrest and hold

being taken by manufacturers of ma

making. Chemical makers. especially
are being instructed in the guarding
