GRAIN GOSSIP.

In their daily grain letter is
sued at the close OF yesterdays mar
ket. Thomson and McKinnon said
IN part:
wheat--Reyival Of statements
that embargoes against expectation
of Southern hemisphere crops would
be lifted in a short time was re-
sponsible for the easy tone of the
early market in wheat. Sentiment
was helped also by reports of larger
offerings in the Southwest, also by
the fact that some four and one
thalf millions of Canadian wheat is
now In transit. mainly TO Buffalo.
These items were entirely overcome
by large export sales. the sesboard
ireportinr 4 ,eeeseee bushsls-ef Msui-
TOBIAS and o fair amount of domestic
wheat These reports were con-
frmed by the character OF the de-
msnd for the March delivery in this
market. The economic situation is
/ playing a part in the market to the
extent that there is a considerable
curtailment of investment demand.
It is quite reasonable to expect that
this condition will remain until
after the turn OF the year. This
being SO. the demand will be con-
fined to foreign countries and the
milling trade. Because OF this, the
market may suffer periods OF de-
preston but IL faith can be placed
upon the statistical position then
there is no logical reason for be-
lieving that prices will assume a
permanent downward trend"
Corn-"It is claimed that East
ern newspapers are giving consid-
cradle attention to the economic sit
uation. This naturally destroys con-
| fidence and the result is to be seen
in the corn market to the extent
that the buying by the distributing
trade fell of sharply today Ex-
porters were asking for offers, but
no business has been reported. We
again refer to the fact that the rate
of current receipts Is not SUFFICIENT
for local users. The movement
from the country must increase in
order to meet new demands from the
East and Southwest that will ap-
pear The increase in movement
is not expected to materalize unless
buyers are willing to pay more
money"

oats-"we direct your attention
to the fact that the oats market
shows an excellent undertone at all
times despite weakness in other
grains. We believe this is due to
the growing idea that prices will
not be further depressed by any

On the contrary there should have
been q better demand from con-

PHOTOGRAPHY GETS
 IMPETUS FROM WAR

The greatest stimulus in the history of mankind was given to surgery and medicine during the war. Through the agency of X-rays, electricity, heat and light radiations, together with mass ages, many thousands of wounded soldiers have been saved from life of hopeless misery. The X-ray has now become as indispensable to the surgeon as the dressing or the splint, an dit is an essential adjunct in pre- scribing and directing, as well as in avoiding, operations.
 The X-ray detection of embedded bullets and shell fragments in any part of the body became so certain in the war as to be commonplace. Fur thermore. new branch of radio graphy has developed during the past rays to the study of materials and structures. This new science of indus trial radiography has a promising fu- ture before it.

ELECTRICITY WILL
 ID MOST ANYTHING
 1T MOST ANY TIME

If YOU recall 'gThe Mikado" you will not have forgotten Pooh bah, that classic dignitary in whose person were assembled most of the official appoint ments of the F1owery Kingdom. Pooh bah was a little of everything. The modern electric grill is the same. It IS very versatile in the number and va riety of it's accomplishments. There are round griils with four heats, square grills that cook three things at once, and rectangular grills capable of two cookery processes at the same time
 And the things these small Pooh bahs will. do. Fancy having such small appliances cook and deliver right at able an entire meal with all the flavor in it. When you consider how much savorless, poorly cooked food finds its way to tables from various kinds of kitchens, it's a wonder folks have sur vived as well as they have.
 l The most important result of cook 1 cry is to bring out new flavors. bit of bacon in its raw state is not very appetizing, but put several slices be- 1 low the heating element of an electric grill, scramble some eggs properly in pan above the element, toast some bread the correct way, make coffee in a percolator and you have an appe- tizing breakfast fit for the gods. Then best of all, it has been prepared right at table, with no soot, smoke or dust Of ashes. without any of the by-pro- ducts of combustion.
 The result we want to achieve in food preparation is to get out of our
 foods the highest nutritive value. the
 best quality and the most satisfac-
 tson they are capable of yielding
 Good cookery depends less on knowing
 many different recipes word for word
 than on being familiar with the gen.
 eral laws in cooking different classes
 of foods. such as meats, cereals anc
 eggs.
 The portability of the electric grill
 is an important feature. What
 pleasant thing it is nowadays to pre-
 pare a meal wherever it is wanted in, , stead of always in a kitchen. Witt

EL LECTRlClTY MAKES SCIENCE OF HOUSEKEEPING
ELECTR|C STOVE NONOVELTY
 IN KITCHENS IF GREAT WEST

The electric stove is no novelty in the kitchens of the west, while in the east 1t is gaining ground year by year. especially small stoves or cookers that permit oven baking and the use of at least two hot plates on top. Such a stove benefits the housewife in the following manner: First, there is no waste heat-therefore she works in cool kitchen: second absolute cleanli- ness is possible at all times; third, labor is reduced to a minimum because an electric stove is always ready; fourth. with no flame there is safety; fifth. the character of the stove per- mits more time for social duties.
 Summing up. therefore, it is evident that an electric stove is safer, superior and socially more acceptable, a big time and labor saver as compared with oldtime stoves. Without dirt. ashes.

gases or. smell it makes an ideal addi- ton to a clean and well kept house hold. As no oxygen is consumed by it the air of the home is purer. As it is small. no kitchen is crowded by its use. As it is scientific in construc- tion and operation, it means that the housewife can predetermine results with certainty in roasting, baking or stewing: You can cook by the clock" is a phrase quite justifiable, now.
 AS the kitchen is really a laboratory in which foods are prepared to stimu- late appetite and induce digestion, 1t is a fine thing to realize that the cleo tric stove. one of the highest scien- tific products, can be installed to put all of the cookery processes on a de- pendable basis. It means working ir a modern way-the science of house keeping realized

nsNAPn IN BoLsHEvIsT STYLES

Naturally the society people of the old regime in Petrograd have been com pIetely exterminated. They have been replaced by parvenu elite of Bof- shevist leaders.
 Lenine and the other men at the top try to set an example to the rest; they live in the utmost simplicity and un- ostentation. But their new power and prominence have gone to the heads of many. They have seized the palaces of the nobility, says Hans Sulter in the 1 Nue Zurcher Zeitung of Switzerland, where they give brilliant soirees. They traverse the muddy streets in princely motor cars and wear pearls and dia- monds They even have fashion of their own Just at present it is the vogue in these new higher circles of Petrograd to go about in high laced boots, riding brooches and a Russian smock. While it is a fashion in some other countries to wear monocle, q Bolshevist bean will wear a single dia- mond in one ear.
 Social usages in these circles resem- ble quite strikingly those among our parvenu war proffteers. Ii should be said in passing that family life in Bol- shevist Russian has suffered severely kChildren are taken away to be brought up and educated in public institutions I There is little formal marriage, ever normal registration before the soviei
 authorities being omitted. Men arc

 A man and his wife came here for the latter's health. As she did not improve, her husband decided to take her to their old home in Ne braska. The man offered to give Hadley a deed to 120 acres of land in Louisiana for $175 with which to pay their railroad fare. Hadley drew from the bank what money he had on deposit, borrowed the rest and then ''staked" the man with the sick wife. Hadley, although he never saw the land, sold it a few days ago for $12O, . 900. It is located in the center of what has recently prUqen to be one of the big gest oil fields in Louisiana.
