Wheat:.-The market for cash wheat
both in the Northwest and in the South
premiums again prevailed for good milling
wheat. 1t was thought however, that the
forts to bring about a reduction in the
cost of living and the break in the coarse
grain markets might have some influence
IN these premiums. especially as the move
inent OF wheat at primary points has been
Increasing recently. Receipts at primary
FONTS last week aggregated 17,S16,o0o
bushels compared with 1861 900 the prov
lous week. At the same time shipments
rom the seaboard TO Europe also in
creasing very rapidly and hipments for
she week were 4648.000 against 1857. 900
the previous week. Large sales have APP
parently been made abroad by the Grain
Corporation and great quantities OF ton
mage have been secured for the movement
VI this wheat abroad
Corn.-Texas has come to the front as
big sellor of corn and in consequence
he market Saturday experienced a
sharp break. closing with net losses of

The Texas crop this year is estimated
~ around 100000 900 bushels compared
with last years yield of 50 900, 900, and as
the season in Texas is early much of this
corn is Now ready for shipment and offers
are having a decided influence in the other
markets. This was particularly noticeable
IN the September position in Chicago

~oBFTUARY-MRs-: BUsHMAN

A few weeks ago mention was made
that Grandma Bushman had suffer
ed from paralytic shock For a time
it appeared that she would regain her
health, but age and her constitution
could not ward off the effects of the
disease and death claimed her at
about IL o'clock March 26, 1919.
She was born in -Cayuga county,
New York, December 6, 1882, and at
her death was Sc years, four months
and twenty days old She came to
Illinois with her parents and on jan
uary 1, 1849, she was united in mar
riage with Issac E, Bushman who pre-
ceded her to the great beyond by sew
era1 years To them seven children
were born, all of whom have died ex-
cept the oldest daughter, Mrs Dorns,
who has made her home with her
mother for the last several years. The
funeral services were conducted from
the Methodist church at 2-3O o'clock
thus afternoon and the body was bur-
led in Wa-Keeney Cemetery.
Mrs. Bushman has been a resident
of this county since 1880 and for
many years has lived in this city: She
was member of the Methodist
church and was kindly respected and
loved by the many who knew her. In
spite of her extreme age she was very
active and while her own children
have all died but the one, she had the
rem markabIe distinction of being the
grand mother of two children the
great grand mother of seventeen and
the great great grand mother of one
child and being the last, with the one
exception, of the survivors of her own
family and of the family of her faith
er and mother. To the surviving rel
atives the sincere sympathy of many
friends IS extended in their hour of
sorrow.
| Card of Thanks
/ We desire to express our sincere
/ thanks to the many kind friends who
tassisted us in caring for our dear
mother during her illness and sympa-
thized with at her death.

We have about 225 light customers
and $50 water customers, with a total
of Is motors installed, and three CON
templated installations.
Do we rea1ize-That our patronage
has increased $50 per cent.
That our plant has only increased
20 per cent.
That fuel and 1ubrica ton has in
creased 200 per cent.
That our salaries have increased al
most 100 per cent
That rates in light service in
creased only 20 per cent.
That our rates in water service re-
mains the same.
This reported was discussed at some
length and on motion and vote was
accepted and placed on file
According to the report and the dis
cnssion which followed it is apparent
that the water and light rates of the
city should be increased in order to
meet the operating Expenses of the
plants The water and light rates m
force in Wa-Keeney are lower than
in any other city in this part of Kan
sas, and it is very likely that they
will be raised by the city administra-
tion which is to be elected Monday.

DON'T FAVOR MOVING IF SECTION IF CANAL

GLENDALE, June 4.-Many from this section attended the meeting at the Washington school last night to discuss ways and means of diverting the flood water of Cave Creek from the valley south of the Arizona canal. This flood has caused considerable damage to the ranchers in this district and at times has invaded the business section of Glendale causing much damage.
 The plan of moving the canal to point about a mile north Of the pres ent location between lateral IS and 14 does not meet with the approval of the majority of the people in this commun- itv who believe that this will divert the flood water from it's natural course into New River via Skunk Creek, but during a heavy rain it is thought that the water will break over these banks and go into Glendale. The people of the district four miles west of Glendale, known as the New River district, rich potato and bean district on the bottom lands adjoining the New Rlver, are apprehensive that their farms and crops would be destroyed if the water were allowed to go down New River.
 A plan has been suggested that Is believed to be as cheap in cost as the proposed plan Ii would entail the con- struction Of diversion dams at the head of the Cave Creek wash that would not only keep the water from the valley, but would provide water for the desert lands of Paradise valley, possibly en- abling the hOmesteaders there 10 pro- duce good grain crop with the water received from a heavy rain.
