CHICAGO BOARD

CHICAGO. Dec. -Notwithstand- ing that cold wave predictions for the winter crop belt, together with lack of moisture in the southwest, gave considerable strength to wheat today. profit taking at the last led to declines The close was weak, A to S4c net lower, with May 1.14 to 1-14k, and July 1.031h to 1-03ss Corn lost + to 5sc. and oats Is @A to A O Sc. Provisions varied from un- changed figures to cents lower.
 With a forecast out for zero tenn pcratures as far south as northern Kansas and with complaints current that the western half of Kansas had received no rain or snow and that the western half of Oklahoma was excessively dry, wheat averaged somewhat higher until the final half hour.
 Setbacks in Winnipeg quotations, however. and satisfactory progress of the harvest in Argentina were more or less of an offset. Holiday curtail- ment of trading tended to deprive the market of support. Near the end sellers clearly outnumbered buyers, and the finish was at the days low.
 Corn and oats were easy in the ab- sence of any special demand. Pros- pective colder weather was construed as hearish.

VIRGIN LAND IN THE NORTH

For 132 years white men have been travelling the Mackenzie River route to the Arctic, yet that stream flows through land the possibilities of which are as yet unrealized. Vast stretches of forest reach away to every horizon. Great lakes and riv- CTS swarm with fish. Untapped min eral wealth abounds. Yet in more than a million square miles of vast possibilities are to be found not more than five thousand people, and of that five thousand perhaps 250 are white.
 Here to the north lies a vast un- developed expanse of untold re- sources. It IS the least developed land of North America, furnishing now only a few bales of fur each year. Iron, gold, and copper abound. Oil may be there in quantity. Great veins of coal are often visible along the river banks. where some of them have been burning since before Mack enzie first traversed the river that bears his name
 Development of this land must come. How long will it be before cities stand where now are tradine posts? How long before railroads make mere memories of the stream packets of the Mackenzie ?-Haw- thorne Daniel in the Worlds Work.

 The money market probably ac- counted in part for these uncertain tendencies. Call loans opened at 5 51s per cent. the highest initial rate in several weeks, subsequently advanc- lng to per cent. Time funds were less plentiful
 Foreign exchanges made further rallies from last weeks setback a circumstance attributed to latest ad- vices on Sermany's separations pay nlents.
 Junior steels and equipments, mo- tor accessories, food specialties and utilities of the gas and power divi- sion rose l to ? F points. Rails. oils, ruhbers and tobaccos eased almost to the same extent. Sales, 535, ,000 shares.
 More price reductions in raw su- gar and other foodstuffs and pros poets of further downward revision of schedules by independent steel producers were accepted as logical result of backward conditions in these and kindred industries.
 Dealings in foreign remittances were light. aside rom the demand for British, French and Dutch bills. Except in the Danish rate, which for felted part of yesterdays substantial advance, all European currencies, in- ciuding German marks, showed a strong undertone.
 Various junior railway issues in the bond list were strong but the gem eral trend was in keeping with the reversal sustained by the Liberty group. The public offering of Dan ish sSo. .o0o, 900 bonds was soon over subscribed Total sales, par value, aggregated $19.250,0 ,000.

C%reameries in Ozark
REGIONS Set New Record

Approximately 12,305,5o lbs.
of butter, valued at S7,400, 600,
were produced by creameries in
the Ozark region of Missouri.
which is an increase of 111.2 per
cent over the output in 1919, &C
cording to figures compiled by
A. j. Mcdowell, Frisco dairy
agent. The ice cream produc'
ton was 650,491 pounds last
year, an increase OF 11O.6 per
cent over the previous year. De-
spite this increase in butter pro
duction in the Ozarks, the total
output in the United States de.
creased II g per cent last year,
Mr.. Mcdowell said, due chiefly
to the scarcity of farm labor.
The output in 1920 was T4,'
262,O5o pounds and in 1919 was
$50, 312, 500 pounds.
There are $4,000 dairy cattle
in the Missouri Ozarks, which
are owned by between 5000 and
5000 farmers, Mr.. Mcdowell
says, and the majority of these
