entity represent a fair adjustment.
The valuation favored by. the board
was considerably in excess of that petl-
toned for by the delegation: The request
of the farmers was in substance. that
the true value of their land be not per
mitted to exceed the sum they have thus
far paid to the government for water.
With the true value of the land fixed
at $50 per acre, the valuation for tax
purposes will be 30 per cent thereof, or
$40 per acre.

t'rmer quotations for raw silk in the

late buying here. according to trade re-
ports yesterday, which indicated that
business men are more puzzled now
than heretofore as a result of reported
attempts of the Japanese government

quotations here have been moved uu
- to 10 cents pound in sympaty with
the trend IN Japan. The trade hears
that the japanese government has def
nitely decided to come to the aid of raw
SILK merchants. but just how is not clear.
II is the belief of some that the price

slightly above present cable quotations
and more than 25 per cent above pre-
Vailing prices recently. Lower figures
were also mentioned as the pegging
price. and consequently the trade is

There was sudden and unexpected
break IN whea. values during yester-

9i+c lower, Winnipeg was down IS
TO 7i.c, and cash wheat in Minneapolis
showed .osses OF IS 20 9'sc.
There was heavy genera! selling
throughout the greater part Of the
Gav and the market showed little re-

of n more Dra:!sh character and the
technical position Of the market was
evidently weak as result OF the ac-
cucluiation Of long holdings.
Inc pronounced weakness in foreign
exchange was one Of the prlncipa!
bearish factors Of the day, as Il was
thought that this would effectively
cheek export buvlng. As a matter OF
day was slow. although il was SAID

Further reports Of good rains in the
Argentine and 4 decline of 9,zc in

tor. while reports that the export en-
barge against wheat an India had been
lifted had pronounced influence on
sentiment.
Cables received here from Liverpool
sald that the Indian government is
arranging to export about $1,000, 600
bushels of wheat next month and pos
s!b!y more, provided the domestic
prices remain unchanged. This. it was
