So WHEAT is LOOKED
FOR AT EARLY DATE
Present Level for Better Grades Has
Been Exceeded But Once in the
Markets History.

KANSAS CITY.-Sales of the bet
ter grades of dark hard and hard Win
ter wheat on the Kansas City market
are being made above So a bushel,
which, with the exception of sales at
$3.42 in May, of 1917, is the highest
figure in the history of the trade
here. The market displays unusual
strength, resulting from heavy buy
ing by millers of the spring wheat
territory of the northwest, also by the
east, the far southwest and surround
ing territory.
The extreme "bulls" in the trade
now are talking of the probability OF
a 81 market for wheat in Kansas

bread grain begins moving to mark

members of the grain and milling in

AN INTERESTING SKETCH OF
THE OLDEST RESIDENT
OF AMERICUS.

AMERICUS, Ga.-The Oldest in
habitant of Americas enrolled by the

with the exception of seven years
has resided here continuously since
that time. She is still possessed of all
her faculties, and mentally very
bright, being able to recall wildly
many interesting events which oc-
Cured during the early days OF
Americas.
When the "stars fell' Mrs. Speer
was just three years of age, and she
said yesterday that If she regretted
anything in this life it was her in
ability to remember clearly that un-
usual natural phenomenon. She comes
of a long-lived family, her grandfath-
er having lived to be SO, and Capt.
John Beatty, a cousin, SO. John PEEL
her father, was n years when ne
died at Preston, although her mother
passed away when only 30. Mrs.
Speer has been a member of the
Methodist church since she was Ia
years of age, having been converted
at a revival meeting held at the Old

NEW YORK THINKS
She's REALLY GOOD
GOTHAM NEWSPAPERS GIVE
STATISTICS TO PROVE 1T. NOT
sUNKEN IN FRIVOLITY.

IT'S all wrong about New York. 1t
: not sunken in frivolity, extrava-
canoe and cynical self-indulgence.
Now York is better than most towns.
statistics prove it. New York news
napers, especially the Herald, con-
firm these statistics.
The statistical division of the
limited States labor bureau has just
;ssued a statement covering the rela-
five virtue of the several American
municipalities. The figures deal with
family expenditures in every section
Of the country. Studying this cheer
ing report, the Herald remarks that
New York is marked by ga high aver
age of moderation, temperance, or
derlv conduct and freedom from the
evil behavior which is supposed to be
essential to the great urban center
Of the world" And read this: "New
York always has been a sober town,
and is now sober town."
Specifically, the average New York
family spent only $14.06 for liquor
last wear, as against Chicago, where
the average was $17.01, and Philadel-
phia where it was $16.36. On the
other hand New Workers contributed
to churches an average of $1O.21 per
family, to charity $1.15 and patriotic
purposes $6.01.
Furthermore" says the Herald,
"instead of spending most of the
time, particularly after dark, rushing
from road house to road house the
average family paid only onthe aver
age of $1.12 for automobiles as
against S68.62 expended in Bisbee,
Arizona, $49.82 in Dover, N. j., and
S40.98 in Houston, Texas" Conclud-
ing the Herald remarks:
SIN the old unregenerate days 1T
used to be said that New York would
have been a sober town had it not
been for the bibulous from prohlbl-
ton states who filled the hotels and
blocked the bars. And similar res
ervation might have been made IN
many other directions.
$50 let us lift up our heads and
our hearts! New York, in spite of the
attention paid elsewhere to every
breach of the law within its borders,
is safe for all those who are not look
ing for trouble. 1t is hospitable even
to those who sheer at its politics, its
government, its fine police force, It's
social customs and its amusements..
Even those who have not good WORD
to say for it as the metropolis OF the
continent are the first to establish a
residence here as soon as they have
the money.
'New York is all right and will be
happy yet"
