MARKETS STILL
SHOW DEPRESSION
Continued Adverse Financial
News Causes a General
Business Depression.
Grains Yield.
FINANCE CORPORATION
Functioning Soon Of New Body Should
Prove of Great Benefit to Manu-
featuring and Agricultural
Interests of Nation.

Minneapolis, Mimi, December 9th
The Quinn-Shepardson Company of
this city has submitted the following
report for market conditions during
the week which has just closed:
During the fore part of the week
extreme weakness of stocks occasioned
by continual adverse financial news
caught Jul grain markets in a waiting
mood for new developments, so that
the general business depression was
again brought to the front and grains
were forced to yield somewhat. There
was nevertheless evidence of a stub
born disposition toward declines, re-
sultlng, no doubt, from reports show
ing still no great selling anxiety on
the part of producers.
1t is estimated that about 30
million bushels of North Ameri-
can Wheat has been sold of ex-
port during the past three weeks.
At the rate Of ten middion bush
els weekly it might be expected
sufficiency of U. S. supplies of hard
milling wheat.
Corn finally has met a strong de-
mand and receipts everywhere are
readily absorbed. Considering the
size of the crop the movement is quite
disappointing. Apparently sales from
hrst hands are forced through necess-
lty. Wherever possible growers are
reported to be holding for a minimum
of SOC per bushel.
Oats are still without export stimu-
lus of any other noticeable demand
except elevator interests where even
the carrying charge is unattractive.
Values are maintained on very light
receipts and there is some investment
buying attracted by the low price and
probability of export demand.
Outside the grain markets the COM
modify trend continues uneasy and
drifting downward. Industrial con-
ditions are confusing. Reductions
have been made drastic, however. that
there is now a very wide spread belief
that the cheaper commodities and
grains more than discount stringent
and the rather dubious business
prevailing and that from
now on any decided trend should be in
the way of an upward reaction.
VI constructive news the launching
last week of the Federal Finance Cor
poration under an impetus that pre-
sages a successful future is consid-
cred the most important and practical
the many cures recommended. No
thing permanent in the way of Federal
control appears contemplated but the
fun%ctioning soon of the corporation
should prove of great benefit particu-
to the manufacturing and agri-
industries in opening an imme-
diate outlet for surplus supplies. re-
lleving strained credits and paving the
present clogged trade channels for the
later resumption of normal business
under private enterprise and the broad
economic law of supply and demand.
demand for our surplus is
most urgent, the problem is one of
nance on a scale difficult under ex-
sting conditions for individuals.

Clay Miller Is
Welcomed to Somerset

The following article from the pen
of "Uncle Bill" Schooler in the Com
monwealth, of Somerset, KY, will be
of interest to the many friends of
Clay Miller:
"When Clay Miller, of Mt. Sterling,
Ientucky, walked into the Common
wealth office the other day and gave
us the handy NIT, we were happy. We
well remember when Clay left the
historic Grassy Lick creek, in Mont
gomery county, and came to Mt. Ster-
ling and started on the road that the
"devir" has to trod if he ever makes
a printer. Young Miller was made
of the stuff that it takes to make a
success, and in a short time he had
mastered the trade, and was running
an office of his own-and when he
sold it a few weeks ago it was one
of the best equipped printing plants
that his home town ever had. Mr..
Miller sold out on account of his
health. He is now a citizen of SOM
erset, having taken charge of the
"Print Shop" at the High School
building. OF all the devils that we
have turned out ON the cold world,
none of them, not even the preacher,
stands any higher in the social and
business world than Miller. He was
married a few years ago to one OF
/ Kentucky's most worthy women, and
to that union has been given two
beautiful children, boy and girl,
and Mr.. Miller is very proud OF his
happy little family. We have known
Clay Miller from infancy and he is
one of the best all round printers we
ever knew, and we take pleasure in
stating to the good citizenship OF
Somerset, that no better or more
worthy citizen ever entered within
our gates"

Serious Accident

On last Saturday Mrs. Cordie
Clark was; called to the bone Of her

rived there she learned that William
Clark had accidentally killed his
younger brother, Louis.
They had seen a duck on pond
near the house and ran for the gun.
Neither knew it was loaded, and in
an effort to insert a cartridge the
gun was discharged, the contents en-
tering the breast of Louis and killing
him instantly.

THRILLS IN SHOULD
A HUSBAND FORGIVEN"

An Arkansas race track was en-
gagged for the rhotosraphing of the
horse racing scenes inc "Should a
Husband Forgive?" the rig William
Fox special which will be seen on
Friday at the Tabb Theatre. Thus it
was possible to get the most exciting
racing scenes ever shown on the
screen and also to accomplish the un-
usual objective of having Miriam
Cooper, who plays Ruth Fulton in the
picture, actually ride a horse in
jockeys garb in real race.
Miss Cooper is am expert horse
woman, but she was slightly nervous
at the prospect of riding in bona
fide race until r. A. Walsh, the di-
rector, treasured her.
$50 in and win, Miss Cooper" he
said. "You've got the best horse on
the track and if any jockey tries to
crowd you just mention the matter
to the horse and he'll move little
faster"
Miss Cooper tried that very thing
with the result that she won the race
by a narrow margin in blanket fin
ish.
