they saved all but twenty-eight and
that about 200 more cases were pledg-
ed to be held by men who had not
previously given the association their
promise. He stated, too, that buyers
admitted that members of the asso-
citation were sticking tight" and that
only the smaller crops were on the
market. Mr.. Kimmel 10 the secretary
OF the Monroe Unit of the Growers
association.
Acreage Only About 20 Per Cent
Compared with that OF 1918, a care
full census of the 1919 acreage In Mon
roe township shows q cut of sixty per
cent from last years planting. This is
surely a drastic cutting down and
shows the temper Of the growers at
transplanting time. Whether this per-
centage will hold good for Prehle and
Darke counties is, to say the least,
very doubtful, but that the acreage is
being largely reduced over the entire
valley is an assured fact.
We are informed this morning that
some tobacco had been sold within
three miles of Eaton this week al
IS cents, which is the best price re
ported for the 1918 crop to date
Some tobacco is being delivered al
Eaton today, but not in any large
quantity, although it was stated q
few days since that 400 cases had
been bought in the vicinity of Eaton
for delivery on this date. 1t is not I'm
likely that 200 cases may come in or
this purchase; though possibly less
will be delivered. The Lewis New
bergh company, Of Hamilton, O., arr

{. w. WAGNER & co.'s LETTER
CHICAGO, June THE tone of the
market continues easy. There is some
talk OF liberal receipts all month.
Chicago receives about three million
and ships three hundred thousand
corn. Chicago stocks show a large
increase. Cash corn two to three cents
lower. Oats one-half cent lower.
Liquidation in July corn continues.
Attitude of food leaders with regard
to recent level of food prices remains
a factor. Cash demand today for
United States and Argentine corn very
poor Crop news mainly good. The
market to some extent awaits the gov
eminent report due at Ills p. m, Chi
cago time Monday. The report should
show nine hundred million winter
wheat, three hundred twenty million
spring wheat, fourteen hundred mil
lion oats, two hundred million barley,
and one hundred twenty million rye.

Clearing up After War.

On the banks of the Thames, less
than twenty miles from London, there
Is an American town of the mush-
room kind such as you might find in
new California oil field It's pOpu.
lation consists of more than 200
white men and about $50 negroes. II
covers twenty-five acres which nine
months ago were fallow grass land.
The business of the town Is to re-
ceive, sort and store war material.
There IS n street of wooden huts, an
other of corrugated iron huts, huge
iron store sheds a quarter of mile
long, Office buildings, water supply
and electric lights, the whole sur
rounded by Il hedge, few armed SEN
tries and much mud. All day long
the khaki-clad negroes push and haul
railway trucks full of war material.
War material coming back from
Russia is being stored at this camp,
also the fittings of the dlsmantled hos
pitfalls which the American army es-
tablished in England.

BETTER THAN AMY MEDIUMS
Minee Pie That Brought Vision Of

Long for Life.

Pie Is not among the articles treated
OF In works on materia medlcn, but
recent incident shows that It may
have therapeutic value In n hospital
lay an American sailor. for whom ev-
erything had been done by surgeons,
doctors and nurses, and yet something
was lacking. He was homeslck; his
mind was ever away IN a little At.
lantlc coast town. One day, in the
midst Of his bodily pain and sOul-suf-
fering. there flashed upon him the OBJ
iect of his quest, and he murmured
excitedly: "Oh. II could only have q
piece Of nhnce pie" II was not that
he wanted TO eat a piece of pie, for
he was too III for that. His hunger
was for what the pie represented.
An American nurse who heard the
wish managed, with some difficulty, to
find all the ingredients for n real New
England pie. When she took Il to
him she put with II n bit OF cheese
also hard to procure in these times
so that nothing would he lacking, and
In the cheese she planted n miniature
Stars and Stripes. The poor boy
could eat neither the pie nor the
cheese, but they contributed just the
home touch needed to improve his
condition. When the wife Of the
American consul general visited him
later she remarked upon the improve
ment in his condition, and he said:
Two days ago I was in such misery
That l could have welcomed death.
Now ! feel that America Is not so
far away as I thought and that have
got TO hang on"

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
AS cheap and satisfactory source
of phosphoric acid, raw rock phos-
plate merits extensive use on farms
In localities where the material is
available. Nowadays when all COM
mercial fertilizers are abnormally ex-
pensive 10 the time to make liberal use
of raw rock as a reinforcement of
stable manure, rs q material to be dis
tributed and plowed under with green
cover crops aad as a profitable plant
food for direct application to soils
That are rich in organic matter.
The relative unpopularlty of raw
rock phosphate in the past has result
ed from incomplete and unsatisfactory
experimental work. Recently the farm
use of raw rock has expanded to o.
900 tons annually, worth approximate
iy s75O,O00.
OF course when immediate results
are desired, the more costly acid phos-
phate is preferable as its plant food
Is readily soluble and suitable for rush
order use. Raw rock phosphate, al
though 1t contains twice as much phos-
phoric acid as the average acid phos-
phate, slowly releases its stores of
food for crop use. 1t costs about $3.50

A Chicken" is a young fowl, usually
under six months of age. 1t becomes
a "fowl" after that period.

from ten ducks, or from four geese.
Whole corn is the proper food for

Eggs for Matching should be care

The chick worth having is the chick

A timesaving plan is to set hens
in pairs, and giving the Ct lcks Matched
from both to one hen, allowing the
other hen To so back to laying.

Warmth Increases Oil Flow.

An electrical method OF carrying
warmth TO the bottom of oil wells has
been found In many cases greatly to in
crease the flow of oil. The heating
process, says Popular Mechanics Maya
zine, decreases the yiscidity of the oil.
usually OccasiOned by the admission
Of air TO the well and the cooling of the
rock bed. Minute crevlces and capil-
larry channels which afford easy pass
age to warm, thin oil become quite I'M
passable If the oil gums. The electric
heating method not only thlns the oil
but often generates gas whose pressure
helps the oil to the surface. The sys-
TEN found military use in the aban-
doned oil fields of ROumania and
Galicia.
