Twas only 8 grasp in the hurry.
The hustle and business of life,
The strong, friendly grip of a brother,
AS the crowd jostled on in its strife;
But that grasp left lingering feeling
OF friendship, encouragement, cheer,
And you felt all refreshed and lighthearted
Like the world wasn't all dark and drear:
Twas only hearty, warm handshake,
grasp with its greeting so bland,
Yet somehow all day seemed the brighter
For that grasp of brotherly hand.
Twas only touch in the darkness,
When trials and dangers were rife;
A warning, q guide, protection,
An omen of good mid the strife;
Twas only hand stretching outward,
To beckon, or caution. or cheer,
A monitor plotting upward,
counselor faithful and near;
Twas only touch in the darkness
That touch had q meaning demand
No signal so true and unfailing
Like the touch of a brotherly hand.

Before the war, the retail alcoholic
drink trade in the United States a
mounted to the enormous sum of two
D..iion, four hundred million dollars
a year. Think of it. An anDunt equal
to the first Liberty Loan with enough
left to pay for the construction Of
the Panama Canal. At five thousand
dollars a mile, it would build a pike
road 100000 miles long - more than
10 times around the globe. Or, it
would construct 100 roads across the
United States from the Atlantic to
the Pacific, making a system of par
allel roads about Is miles apart. At
that rate it would pay for the build
ing Of a road the distance from the
earth to the Moon and back again.
At three cents a mile, it would pay
railroad fare a distance equal to that
from the earth to the Sun and return
42S times. 1t amounts to nearly TWEEN
ty four dollars for each person, and
at six per cent interest, would bring
an income of 144 million dollars an
nuaIly-a dollar and forty cents for
each in dividual in the nation. Yet,
some people claim to feel "richer"
with liquor than without it.

NEW WHEAT PRICES
Barnes VIII Fix Higher Minimum for
Lower Grades.

New York, Aug. T-Because of the
exceptionally high proportion of
rusty" or defective wheat in this
years crop. the United States grain
corporation has decided to fix inmed-
lately a schedule of prices at which
the lower grades will be purchased,
Julius Barnes, United States wheat di-
rector, announced following a confer
ence with United States representa-
tives. vice-presidents of the corpora
ton and representatives of farmers.
Mr.. Barnes stated that the minimum
prices probably would be made public
today
Prices for other than first grade
wheat are being fixed for the first
time in order to protect unfortunate"
growers against a price lower than the
relative value of rusted wheat. The
prices will be fixed as near the No.
1 grade as the character of his crop
warrants" Mr.. Barnes said
These prices will bear a relation to
the guaranteed price at the terminal
markets only.

RELIEF IN THE DROUTH
Rains in Kansas, However, Too
Late To Save Corn.
BY S. D. FLORA.
%. S. Meteorologist for Kansas

(U. S. Meteorological for Kansas.)
The long standing drouthy condi-
tons were relieved this week over
nearly all the eastern half of Kansas
by showers on the goth and 25th,
which tota1ed from half an inch to an
inch and a half in many counties.
Most of the extreme western counties
have also been favored by moderately
heavy rains. but that part of the state
lying just west of a line drawn thru
Concordia,, Salina, and Hutchinson is
sti1l very dry. Temperatures have
ranged. close to normal The after
Moons have generally been less than
100 degrees and the nights fairly cool.
Upland corn in the eastern two
thirds of the state has practically, all
passed a point where it can be helped
by any amount of rain. except in a
few favored localities. Lowland corn
is still green and as a rule in many
counties as much as half of 1t will be
materially benefited by the rains that
have fallen, tho there are numerous
counties in the middle third where
corn has made about all the progress
it will ever make. In the western
third corn is passing the hard roast
ing ear stage and is still green and
flourishing. Cutting corn is beginning
in a small way in the eastern third of
the state.
Grain sorghums are still in shape to
make a fine growth, tho they have
headed low in the eastern counties.
Present indications are that they will
mature before frost. except possibly in
the northwestern counties. where they
are just beginning to head freely.
Broom corn in the southwest is doing
fine and its harvest will begin in
from ten days to two weeks.
Pastures have dried up in most of
the eastern half of the state. but still
afford enough feed to support stock.
The fourth cutting of alfalfa is under
way in the southeastern counties and
the third has begun in the north
western.
From half to three-fourths of the
threshing is finished in the eastern
two-thirds and it is in full swing in
the western third. The ground has
been so hard and farmers so busy
with threshing that very little fall
blowing is done, except in a few scat
tered counties which report from a
fourth or half of it finished.
Grasshoppers are bad in the west
ern counties especially in and near
Ford, Pawnee, and Stafford.
Apples are doing fairly well in the
northeastern part of the state.

TODAY'S MARKET REPORTS

Chicago, Aug. Reconnaissance COM
mission house buying and light offerings
today failed ut the start to offset a general
bearishness among corn traders. Condi-
lions of industrial and economic unrest

away from high prices. Increased buying
early induced a slight upturn which was
speedily followed by another sag. Open-
ing corn prices were &c higher to Ike
lower. December showing the only increase.
The initial figures were September $1.TS to
S1TS15 and December $1.41L to $142
The close was weak. sc to 1c net lower
with September at $1.TS% to $1.To and De-
cember 81. 40ss to $1.40%.
OATS-Oats started weak with limited
support and thru the earlier trading moved
in narrower limits than corn. The market
steadied somewhat beneath the opening
figures Opening prices were unchanged to
sc lower with September Mt 715sc to IKE
and December at 74Tc TO 741sc.
PROVISIONS Provisions opened dull
and weak influenced by declines in live
hog prices. At the start prices were from
25c to 4Oc lower.
Liquidation induced by lower live hog
prices continued TO feature the provision
market The close was somewhat away
from the low points with pork Sc down :

cents.
