No Longer "Mileh" Cow.

Hereafter it will be milk COW" and
not ''milch cow"--at least SO far as
the department of agriculture is
concerned.
This decision marks tho termination
of q controversy in which etymoio
gists in the department have had MOI
q little interest. Those defending,
"milch" have pointed to scriptural us,
and certain OF the classics as estab
fishing presidents, while the opposi
ton has contended that dairymer,
ranchmen and farmers in general use
milk" instead of ''milch" almost uni
versally.
The advocates OF milk" also fav-
ored that word because they contend
ed it was more strictly an English
word, while "milch" was akin to Ger
man. Since Americanization OF Ian
guage as we'll as ideals is an artie lie
in every patriots creed. it is thought
that this last sally of the milk" de-
tenders helped as much as any to de-
eide the question in their favor.

Chicago. May 29.-Stoppage of
wheat loadings in Argentine, togeth-
or with export demand for wheat at
SuIf ports in the United States, had
q decided bullish influence today on
the corn market. Furthermore re-
ceipts of corn today were much
smaller than expected, and country
offerings to arrive were light. With
commission houses and shorts COM
peting as buyers, the market rapidly
advanced. Opening prices, which
varied from unchanged figures to 8
cents higher, with July at $1.65 to
@1.66 and September s1521s to s1.53,
were followed by gains all around,
and then something of a reaction.
Toward the last May delivery was
easy, but July and September showed
continued strength. The close was
unsettled. IL cents to 31s cents ad..
vance, with July at s1.66A to s1.66H,
and September at s1.53 to s1.54.
Oats.
Oats strengthened with corn. After
opening unchanged to rs cents high
er. including July at SSss to S9h
cents, the market steadied at a mod
crate general advance.
Provisions.
weakness in hog values had a
bearish effect on provisions. despite
the upturn of grain.
