MARKETS SHOW
A FIRM TONE.
There is an Extremely Light
Movement of All Grains
from Hands of Farmers
OFFSET BY BUYING SLUMP
A General Domestic Buying Revival
Seems the General Opinion for the
Near Future. Situation Will
Not Grow Worse, and a
Change for the Better
Is Looked For.

The CHARACTERIZATION Company of
Minneapolis Submit the Following re-
port of the market conditions in the
Twin Cities for the week ending jan
uary 9Th.
Minneapolis. MINI, Jan. l0.-There
was a firm tone in all grains the PAST
week. On, ar ac mutation of con-
strr ctive news items and on a general
expression of tont'd ,nca in future de-
"elopments or the part of leading bus
mess men, soma good advances were
registered. 1t was evident, however,
that something more tangible was
needed to sustain the market, for,
I'VE with shallow, overworked and
discounted Bearish items, relapses
nevertheless were frequent.
Broomhall is now quoted as liguring
world wheat exportable surplus ar 62O
million and a world wheat import re-
quirement of $50 million. 1t was not
clear what if any figures were o n
templated as next year carry-overs.
There ire rumors of an additional eX-
port sales, but with Argentine wheat
at Is cents a bushel cheaper and in
view of our large sales overseas to
date, further heavy export sales are
unlikely. 1t seems to us in any event
that wheat is already in a sufficiently
strong domestic position to be practi.
cally Independent of further export
business. There is no where any great

pressure of wheat, especially of the
better milling varities and, with mil
lers reporting some improvement in
flour orders, many in the trade anti
cipate higher premiums.
Reports from branch offices indicate
an extremely light movement from
first hands. Unseasonably soft wea-
Their throughout the corr belt is MAIN
ly the cause for the shortage at coun-
try elevators, although feeding as
against the present corn price is a
very attractive proposition to the pro-
Queer. The larger corn industries are
now re-entering the market and should
soon be operating close to normal.
While in a position to compete with
and undersell Argentine there has been
a fair amount of corn worked for eX-
port which even in the face of wheat
relapses had the effect of sustaining
corn values. In oats there is little
or no independence displayed. The
market simply is devoid of feature.
Although receipts of all grains on
tinue quite disappointing the buying
slump has more than offset the COM
paratively scanty supplies. A gen.
eral domestic revival for the near flu
ture seems to be a general opinion
(if not a hope) in all lines, but since
continued buying postponement of
necessities only increases later re-
uuirements, it would seem that the
situation can grow no worse and that
a change must now be for a better
demand. The United States now holds
a dominant and enviable position in
world trade and she enters the new
year in a sounder financial condition
than any other country. Passage of
the re-establishment of the War Fin
ance corporation, with the design of
maintaining and improving foreign
trade on agreeable credits, took place
during the past week over the Presi-
dents veto and may prove helpful to
our foreign trade.

HARVEST HAND
Farmers Now Contract for Hive
of Bees to Harvest Their
Crops of Rich Nectar.
A new SUCCESSFUL METHOD
In this Manner, Much Waste Honey is
Gathered in Regions Where The
Bee Industry has not Yet
Reached an Elaborate
Standard.

Written Specially for The Courier
A plan has been worked out by the
~bee-keepers of American to make eX-
tensive shipments of honey-bees from
one state to another for the purpose of
harvesting the crop of nectar from
coast to coast and from Canada to the
Gulf which otherwise would be lost.
Under existing conditions bees only
manage to harvest the nectar within a
radius of one or two miles from their
hives.
There may be scant forage in one
section where bees are kept at certain
seasons of the year while in another
region the forage is ideal but the bees
are scarce.
Last year leading western bee-keep-
ers found it highly profitable to ship
bees in one and three pound packages.
without combs, as for as 500 to 1000
miles without loss.
They made contracts to deliver so
many bees to farms in California or
Michigan, placing the bees in light
cases, with wooden bottom, top and
ends but with screen sides.
The packages are 6xSX16 inches.
There is a screen inside to which the
bees cluster in transit.
Feed Bees Before Start
First, a can of sugar sirup is placed
in each package, after which it is tax
en- to the apiary and filled with bees
by shaking each tray removed from 3
hive and causing the bees to fall thru.
a funnel in to the cage. They
gorge themselves on the sirup and soon
are contented to sit quietly on the
screen, ready for their journey.
The filled packages are hauled in an
automobile equipped with a specially
constructed rack. After this the cages
are Grated six together with a wire
handle at each end, labeled and placed
in the express car. 1t has been found
safest to select through trains for a
speedy journey. A queen bee is usually
shipped in a small package alone.
On arrival each cage is placed in a
hive and soon the bees go forth to
harvest the honey crop, which without
them whould have been a total loss.
The bees also might have been a
loss in last the nectar crop at home
was Scant.

Police Declare
War On LOafers

War has been declared on the
loafers.
The uncmployed-by nature or ac-
quircd inclination-as we'll as the
man who is fortunate enough to have
a job, but who has tendency to
"hang around" public places outside
of working hours, have got the au-
thorities on their neck.
AT least this is true as far as the
local Boston and Maine railroad sta
ton is concerned. The depot has
long been great headquarters for idle
men and boys, who sit Or stand
around the place smoking and chew
ing tobacco and allowing the juice to
fall to the floor instead Of hunting
up cuspidor.
O. II. Henderson, agent in charge
Of the station, has asserted in no I'M
certain language that this practice
must end and with this in view he
has carried a complaint to Chief of
Police Finley, who has promised that
he and his assistants will endeavor to
put stop to the loafing. The depot
has been added to each patrolman's
beat and as result of frequent trips
of the officers to the loafers lair it is
expected that this practice will short
ly cease.
The campaign was inaugurated
only Monday and already wonderful
results have been attained.
