Sales
The Economists Opportunity

REMNANTS and such other goods in
limited quantities whose prices are reduced to
insure speedy selling have the call in these
Friday sales; they are featured on the booths
(main foor) and at special counters in many
parts of the building. That their sale presents
a real opportunity for people desiring better
grades of merchandise is apparent over and
over again each week to our ever growing
patronage. All the items that make up these
Friday offerings cannot of course, be listed, but
we can, and do, extend the invitation to all
people to visit the store. We believe there are

WARNED BY MARKET EXPERTS.


The division of agricultural econo-
mics of the Minnesota college of
agriculture notes that potato grow
ing, under the spur of high prices,
has increased far beyond the de-
velopmrent of marketing machinery.
There is danger here, according to j..
D. Black, acting chief of the uivision,
and Frank Robotka, field agent IN
market business practice, that out
side promoters will encourage
marketing organizations of question
able value to the farmers-assoc1a-
tons which purport to be co-opera-
tive, but which in realty are such in
name only. Farmers are cautioned
by the department not to invest in
any enterprise or scheme which they
do not control. The experiment, sta
ton through the division is making
a study of the cooperating marketing
of potatoes. Communities planning
to organize cooperative associations
should consult the department of
agriculture of the University of Min
nesota, University Farm, St. Paul, or
the Minnesota department of agricul-
ture, State Capitol, St. Paul.

White S0x IN
ANOTHER WIN

Impersonating the early bird
successfully and giving Claude
Williams sensational support, the
White Sox COPIED the second game
of their series with Washington
yesterday before the worm had a
chance to turn, Score, to 2.
The Gleason tribe got busy in
the first three innings and trimmed
Harry Thompson for six hits ana
three runs, all of them marked
Sterling" That was more than
the Senators could manufacture.
in spite of the fact they hit the ball
considerably harder than the Sox
Jackson and Risberg starred in
support of Williams, although
there wasn't a man on the home
side who did not contribute a
telling bit to the defensive work.
The play that everybody will be-
lieve counted most came off in the
seventh and saved the Sox from
at least a tie, if not a defeat. That
was the round in which the visitors
hit Williams hardest and counted
only once on single, double, and
single made in that order.

The Markets
CORN PRICES IN
FRESH ADVANCE
Scarcity of Supplies Bring Upward
Move With May Reaching
Its Highest Figure.

Chicago, May 27.-Fresh ad-
vances took place in the corn mar
ket today and the rise carried May
to the highest price yet this sea-
son. Scarcity of supplies was the
chief reason apparently. Atten-
ton continued to focus largely on
the big decrease of thte visible
supply total. Opening prices,
which ranged from the same as
yesterdays finish to NC higher,
were followed by a slight reaction,
and then by an all-around upturn
which in some cases surpassed the
initial top figures.
Oats were bullishly affected by
reports that green bugs were at
lacking the crop in some sections
of Missouri. After opening IN
changed to sc higher, the market
sagged a little, and then hardened
again.
Inactivity characterized provis-
ions. Prices averaged lower as a
result of the weakness in the hog
trade.
subsequently, further gains were
scored with no important setbacks
intervening. The market closed firm
&c to &c net higher, with July
$1.661a to S1.665s and September
$1.5SA to S1.5Sk.

Sportively Speaking
By SKINNER MACK.

Dundee is too much of a "pugilistic
highbrow" to travel in the Timothy
society but they overlook the fact
that Timothy made Dundee step on
the three occasions the two boys
met and on one of the occasions,
Timothy beat Dundee in every
round. Just because of the fact that
Buck has been deprived of garner
ing the sheckels around these parts
for the past two years is no criter-
ion for refusing him match with
Dundee. And although there is no
apparent hard feeling between the
two boys it's almost a certainty
that a grudge exists between the
two-this being the only natural
outcome of the course of events in
the past two years.
Harris Improves.
According to the latest word re-
ceived from Jimmy Harris by his
manager, Fat Smith, the former
is entirely out of danger and will
soon be back in this city. Jimmy, it
seems, was more than able to hold
his own against the ravages of the
"flu" and to his remarkable vitality
is attributed his early recovery.
Just how soow he will be able to
enter the ring again. is another
question and it is doubtful if he
will fight before next fall.
"DOnny" Recuperat1ng.
The report that Johnny Donahue,
one of the most popular of the To-
cal brigade, had given up the game
following his mishap in his recent
bout with Clint Flynn at La Sale,
is denied by Johnny himself. AL
though Johnny seriously injured
both his hands in his last bout they
were not broken and with proper
nursing the members will soon be
in as good condition as ever.
Ringside reports verify previous
statements made after the Flynn
Donahue bout that Johnny won the
fight by a mile although he was
forced-through an injury to his
hands-to leave the ring in the
eighth round. Not only did he have
Flynn out on three different oc-
casions but each time Referee
Purdy waved Johnny to one side Of
the ring, thereby allowing Flynn
time to recover.
