Mckinney, a Topeka aviator, left To-
peka to deliver by air, a boys bicycle
to Harry I. Smith, an Eldorado oil

to find a BICYCLE the, right size for his
son, finally locating one at the Hard

He bought the bicycle, and ordered it
delivered by aeroplane, so that his son
might be sure to have it by July 4.

1%c to SIC compared with q week ago
Corn finished the week at. sc off to Hc
advance with oats showing losses Of 1lac
to 1k G2c, and provisions varying from
10c set back to 35c advance.
On the downward plunge Of prices, ex-
porters were prompt to see an opportunity
to buy to advantage and then market re-
bounded. Rallies, however, were not well
maintained as many bulls preferred to
realize on holdings rather than to face I'M
certainties of the weather and other fac
tors until trading could be resumed on
next Tuesday.
Corn aud oats dropped with wheat and
were steadied later by chances of crop
damage.
Provisions averaged a little higher ow-
ing more or less to buying for Europe.
