Wheat Is Higher

crease; Corn Is Steady

CHICAGO. Sept. 22.-Something Of
revival in export business helped
to give wheat prices an upward turn
to-day. The market closed firm, 1c to
lie net higher, with December $1.25%
to s1.2s and May $1.28h to $1.29z.
Corn gained Ac to nc and oats q
shade to Nc In provisions the out
come varied from 12c decline to &c ad-
vance.
At first the wheat market had down
ward slant, owing largely to evidence
that there was no present stringency OF
supplies, even though exhaustion of stocks
might come later Bearish sentiment.
however, lost its hold when word passed
around that export interests had taken
100000 bushels Of hard winter wheat to
be shipped by way of the Gulf of Mexico.
Other sales to Europe were noted later.
but the qualities were withheld Mean
while crop damaging adyices from tho
Northwest counted to some extent a
bullish factor. gossip being current that a.
result Of two weeks rain large amount
of wheat had been rendered unfit for
milling. Belief In some quarters that q

the upward swing OF values. especially at

N. Y. Reserve Bank
Shows Sharp Gain;
System Improves
Remarkable Increase in
Total Reserves of Local
Institution Responsible
for Drop in the Rates

Extraordinary improvement took
place last week in the position Of the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York
when the local institutions ratio Of
total reserves to deposit and Federal
Reserve note liabilities combined
scared to the record height Of Al per
cent, compared with 75.7 per cent a
week ago and 43.7 per cent a year ago.
This remarkable showing, the result Of
borrowings and rise in total gold re-
serves above the billion dollar mark
for the first time, is believed to have
been responsible for the action Of the
directors of the New York bank in re-
ducing it's rediscount rate from 5h TO
per cent.
While the New York bank was inn
proving it's position, the Federal Re-
serve system was moving in the same
direction and the consolidated state
ment of the condition of the twelve
Wednesday disclosed a ratio of total
reserves to deposit and Federal Re-
serve note liabilities of 687 per cent,
against 67.5 per cent week ago and
43.6 per cent year ago. Gold reserves
of the system increased from $2,-
684,501 900 to $2,711, $4,000. Member
bank borrowings secured by govern
ment obligations decreased from $685.
1000 to S495,156; those secured by

to $685., 100000. Federal Reserve notes
in actual circulation declined from ST.
491, ,651 900 to $2,474 ,676,000.

Cotton Declines

Crop Reports and Foreign

Bullish crop figures and favorable
foreign trade advices promoted rail-
lies in the cotton market yesterday,
but failed to create any general or

may have accounted for the tendency
Of offerings to increase on advances

December contracts selling off from
20.35 to 1898, then advancing to 20.36,

While the news from Manchester and

Fol lice and sheep ticks a number of
dips are recommended in the bulle-
tin. including coal tar c%reosote, cresol,
and ~nicotin, or nicotin and sulphur.
For scab mites the official dips are
~lime-sulphur and nicotin-sulphur dips.
Arsenical dips are not well suited to
sheep dipping. All places which have
been occupied by lousy sheep should
be regarded as dangerous from this
standpoint for a period of three weeks
if occupied by ticky sheep, as Ian
gerous for two months; If occupied
by scabby sheep, as dangerous for a
month or two in the case of pastures,
and a year or more in the case of

essential in Graduating scab.
The most common internal parasites
Of sheep include tapeworms, fukes.
roundworms, and a few other forms
such as maggots causing grub in the
head. the ~tongue-worm and the one
celled %protozoa. One of the most COM
mon of these is the grub, infestation
with which can be largely prevented
by smearing the nose of the sheep
with n preparation made of equal
parts of tar and grease, or tar and
fish oil. Other important Internal par
asltes discussed in the bulletin are
tapeworms. the gid parasites, hydatId,
liver flukes, stomach worms, nodular

OF these, certain tapeworms are fair

Home Garden Saves 500.

The average American family can
grow one-eIghth of its food and save
500 annually by home gardens, a Col
umbia university survey shows.
o. s.. Morgan, professor of agricul-
ture at the university, In making
public the survey urges the thousands
of gardeners who made Il start with
home gardens during the war and who
quit them just on the eve of victory"
to re-enllst. He says that 22,540
farms have been abandoned in New
York state during the past decade,
a reduction of 1O5 per cent of the
total number I'm 1910.
"In a recent survey of a thousand
families with home vegetable and
fruit gardens, 1t was shown that as
an average the garden produced one
eighth of the food requirements Of
the family" Professor Forgan said.
AT current prices it is estimated
that even in remote suburbs this
would represent well over 800 actual
saving to each amily."-New York

GET TO WORK ON GARDEN
Really There Is No Reason Why There
Should Be Any Unused Ground
in Community.

A garden is a good investment. A
garden saves money. A garden pro-
notes health.
The cost of living still is burden
some to m%ultitudes. Here is where the
garden can be made to help. 1t all de-
ponds on the man with the hoe. Enough
of him, working at odd times during
the next few weeks, with slight atten-
ton during the summer, can accom-
plish more for the general material
welfare than can be accomplished
through the operation of treaties and
tariffs. No doubt about 1t at all Let
the available unused plots of ground
in the nation be utilized for garden
purposes; let every citizen ten his
little patch-rich man, poor man, beg
gar man-with the school children do
ing their bit, as was done during the
war, and lol the most vexing internal
domestic problems will be settled, and
millions of people will be out of the
trenches of trouble before Christmas.
Now is the time for the man with
the hoe to get busy. Whether prices be
high or low, 1t pays to make a garden.

FACTS
PARASITES CAUSE BIG LOSS
Among Lambs and Young Sheep
Ways to Prevent Diseases.

prepared by the United states Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Sheep probably suffer more than any
other kind of live stock from para
sites. They are practically immune
to tuberculosis, which is one of the
serious ailments of cattle and swine,
and among sheep there is nothing
comparable to the devastating out
breaks of cholera among swine. Sheep
have comparatively few bacterial
diseases. Nevertheless, there is a
steady loss of sheep in all parts of
the country and this loss is mostly
due to parasites.
1t is the sheep owners business to
prevent disease rather than to attempt
to cure it after it has made its APP
pearance. While there are special
treatments for the various diseases
which makes it advisable to call a
competent veterinarian, there are n
number of ways to prevent diseases
caused by parasites. Among these
pasture rotation, use of forage crops,
feeding from racks or board floors,
draining or filling swamps, and pre-
NtlitlnS ndhutl ing Jugs HUH EelllhS
into the flock. Permanent pastures
perpetuate parasites, it is stated. The
eggs of internal parasites pass from
the animals in the manure and thus
the pastures become infested. The
proper disposal of the manure will
aid in preventing this.
Damage from parasites is greatest,
as a rule, among lambs and young
sheep. Hence, it is important to pay
special attention to the care and
handling of lambs and yearlings.
Prompt action to ascertain the aus
when sheep become unthrifty will
often prevent serious loss.
Parasites of sheep are divided into
two general groups, external and in
ternal. Among the former, lice, sheep
ticks. and scab mites are the most
common. One application of sodium
fiouride in the form of a powder
rubbed into the skin will kill biting
lice. but not sucking lice. Both kinds
of lice, sheep ticks, and scab mites

Improved Roads Make Farm only a
Suburb and Land Has Increased
Greatly in Value.

The biggest booster for good roads
In the country today Is the farmer.
A few years ago he felt that the por-
tlon of his taxes used In the construc-
tion OF permanent highways repre-
scented n benefit only to the motoring
tourist and the city automobile owner.
The farmer argued that he was pay
Ing for their pleasures, and the result
was a superstition against the good
roads movement, which, unfortunately,
has not as yet been entirely overcome
in some sections of the country.
Now, however, when the farmer
finds that his land has trebled In val
ne: when the merchandise for which
he has telephoned In the morning IA
be delivered by noo of the same day (;
when the market for his own produce
Is brought hours nearer; when the
winter and its following spring thaw
possess no terrors for him-all this
because of the improved highway
which makes his farm only a suburb,
as II were. of the nearest city-he
naturally becomes a Woodworking
and h~ard.voting enthusiast for good
roads.-Lesiie's.
