FREESELLING
LOWERSGRAIN
Lack of Demand Coupled With Re.
newed Pressure Forces Crop
To Register Losses.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4.-The lack of
any broad general demand for
wheat was strikingly indicated in
the trade here today. With no spe-
cia! demand from the shorts, the
market appeared to sink of it's own
weight, there being little support
at any time. A decline of 3& to
cents was registered. Commission
houses were free sellers. Early
and late in the day there was re-
newed local pressure, owing to the
reports of 10000 bushels being sold
to go to store, indicating elevator
interests were getting ready to de-
liver cut wheat next month.
The Canadian pressure continues
to be a big factor. 1t has not
shown any change for the better,
Winnipeg again having a big run
Premiums for wheat were a little
firmer here for some grades, but
in general there was nothing new
in the shipping situation. Export
trade at the moment is mostly in
Manitobas. Export houses claim to
be filing their export sales with
out trouble in the country. Flour
trade shows no material improve
ment.
If it had not been for the de-
pressing influence OF a slumping
wheat market, corn probably would
have shown more strength. AS IL
was, the improvement in spot pre-
miums, extremely light receipts and
a broad shipping demand gave the
nearby delivery little higher

was mainly on the May and July

WORLDS COTTON SPINDLES,

The Department of Commerce re-
ports that figures compiled by the
international Federation of Mas
ter Cotton Spinners and Manufac-
turers' Association indicate that the
total snumber of cotton spindles in
the world, exclusive of Russia and
Austria. amount to 145,7ol.462. 1t
IL estimated that in Russia and
Austria there are. some $685.
goo additional spindles. On July
81. 1920, returns made by the
spinners showed that 1882, $50 spin
dies were idle. The total number
of cotton spindles in Great Britain
is placed at 5s.2s2,41D, and those
in the United States at s5,s7s,0oo.
France and Germany each have o.

Center Market Called Leading Mart
By Prominent Frisco Fruit Merchant
Visitor Here Cites Capitals
Advantage Over Western
ers Who Depend on Chi
nese Street Vendors With
Only a Basket Of Goods.

Washington Is so accustomed 10
its own Center Market that II does
not realize that it has one OF the
finest public markets in the United
States, il not in the world. Vest
erners are always struck with this
unique feature of Capital life, since
the huge markets of the East are
not found in our Western cities.
d. Bacigalupi, a prominent San
Francisco fruit dealer, who was
recent visitor from the West, re-
marked that in San Francisco, Los
Angeles, Seattle and other Pacific
Coast cities there are no markets
of the character of Center Market
Out West the housewife depends
upon the huckster more than the
Washington housewife does. Only
out there he is not known as the
huckster. but as the fruit man"
or the vegetable man." San Fran
cisco has q hucksteT a little out
OF the ordinary in the Chinaman,
who. coolie-fashion, carries two bas-
kets balanced on a bamboo rest
ing on his shoulder, and patters
up and down the many hills SELL
ing fruit and vegetables.
Joys of Marketing.
But here in Washington almost
everyone goes to market, and the
huckster is not so essential to the
housewife.
And thsn there is the Joy of going
to market and doing ones own
buying. a joy that can be compared
with little else in the modern house
wife's wide range of activities.
The story is told OF the old Jew
ish woman who. brought up on the
East Side. became suddenly wealthy.
Transplanted,t to please the more fas-
tidfous tastes of her children, to
palatial apartment on Riverside
Drive, she pined much as a bird in
a gilded cage for the old days when
she was at liberty to take her bas-
ket and go shopping as she pleased.
Marketing Irresistible.
One day. the, story goes, finding
herself alone, she made desper-
ate resolve. Putting on her ex-
pensive furs, she ordered the limou-
sine and told the chauffeur to drive
her back to the East Side. The
first thing she did on arriving IN
her old haunts was to buy a mar
ket. basket. Then she indulged In
a perfect saturnalia of buying. She
bought things that her thoroughly
Americanized family never would
eat in the wide world-smelly cod
fish, and mackerel, cheese, sausages,
dark bread with caraway seeds. and
other long-forbidden delicacies.

DECLINE In WHEAT PRICES
LESS THAN In OTHER FOODS

The Daily Trade Bulletin Of Chi
cago says that the declines in cash
prices from the high figures reach
ed during the war are approximate
ly as follows: Wheat, 40 per cent:
corn, So per cent: oats. AZ per cent;
rye, 81 per cent; mess pork. GO per
cent; lard, 49 per cent; short rib
sides. So per cent: hogs, 81 per cent;
cattle. Al per cent. This would in
dicate that the decline in wheat is
not as serious comparatively as
generally reported.

BRED Ewes
GIVEN TO CLUBS
BOY AND GIRL BREEDERS GET
START IN INDUSTRY.

Mitchell, Feb. 12.-An enrolment
OF $500 members in the state boys
and girls clubs for 1920 is the re-
port of A. L. Haynes, assistant state
club leader, in his forecast of the
coming year. During the year just
closed 1,150 members of the clubs
produced $S06,000 worth of hogs, ac-
cording to Mr.. Hayes. Half of these
hogs were sold at auction and the re-
mainder were either fed for pork or
kept as foundation stock for next
year.
Mr.. Haynes expects the baby beef
projects for next year will be more
popular than they were last. A dozen
or more of these clubs already have
been organized, each member pur-
chasing pure bred COW with calf
at foot.
More than 200 bred ewes have been
distributed among the club members.
Mr.. Haynes has adopted the slogan "a
small flock for every farm" Once this
is realized, he says, the weed menace
viii be definitely settled. With wool
headed toward 81 pound he says
the sheep projects are bound to sue
ceed.
Many corn clubs will be organized
throughout the state this year, ac-
cording to Mr.. Haynes, and special
attention will be paid to the selec-
tion of seed corn.

Howard, Feb. 12.-One of the most
successful agricultural meetings ever
held in Miner county has concluded
here. One of the features during the
closing hours of the meeting was the
presentation to Judge A. +. Cham
berlain, who for many years has been
active in the work of promoting agri.
culture in South Dakota, of a beauti-
full ring and travelling case.
Farmers and merchants from all
parts of the county were present at
the agricultural short course, which
was a feature during the various ses-
sions of the meeting. The short
course was presented by Judge Cham
berlain and his staff of experts, who
covered every branch of farming and
advanced ideas which will be bene-
ficial in increasing the quality and
quantity of the crops produced in
Miner county in the future.
Mrs. Bertha Dahl Laws addressed
the women in attendance on the SUBJ
ject of home economies, and illustrat-
ed her remarks with charts.
Prof. Chamberlain spoke at one
session on community conditions, the
relations between the residents of the
towns and the farming country ad-
jacent thereto, and referred to the

ties working in harmony as all were

FOR
u. S. PROBE
SAID TO HAVE TALKED OF CON-
ING OVERTHROW OF NATION
WITH GERMAN AID.

Sioux Falls, Feb. 12.-Government
officials today began an investigation
into the alleged I. w. w. activities of
Joseph Jackey, alias Fred Carlson.
who was arrested late yesterday aft
ernoon by Detective Phil Pickett after
the police had received complaints
that Jackey had told several persons
in the vicinity of the Milwaukee sta
tion that the "red" organization were
planning to stage a revolution in the
United States the latter part of June
or early in July. Jackey was taken
to the county Jail where it is said he
will remain until the police and gov
ernment agents have thoroughly in
vestigated his activities.
Jackey has an honorable discharge
from the United States army and
served during the world war as a
cook. His discharge shows that he
took part in the engagements at Cha
teau-Thierry and in the Argonne He
was born in Poland. according to his
story to the police. and claims to be
an American citizen. Federal agents
also are working on the theory that
he is an alien.
According to the information given
by one of the informants against
Jackey the latter told several per-
sons that I. w. w. workers through
out the country were planning ma
tion-wide revolution and that the
German government was to furnish
them with guns and ammunition
which were to be shipped secretly
into this country through Mexico.
Jackey is alleged t6 have stated that
the workers had been busy for sew
eral months gathering arms and am
munition so that the revolution would
be a success.
