CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, Nov. 4.-Upturns in the price of wheat took place today, helped by Victory bonds at par and by predictions Of frost in Argentina. Closing quota tions of wheat, although unsettled were 3-4 to 1-8 net higher with Decem- Der at 1.01 to 1.o1 1-S and May 1.06 to 06 1-8. Corn gained S-4 to 1-2 cent, and oats 1-2@5-S to 3-4. Provisions finished unchanged to 20 cents higher.
 Al first the wheat market showed a downward tendency, the result of an ac- cumulation of overnight orders to sell. The fact, however that values had brok- en eleven cents a bu6hel within a week caused a reaction to be looked for in many quarters, and the question was raised whether any considerable part of the United States exportable surplus re- mained to be disposed of, estimates be- ing current that 10000 900 to 5o, o6O 900 bushels sold to the seaboard were yet to be skipped. Par for Victory bonds gave the wheat market a decided sttra- ulus at this juncture. Dispatches say- ing the Argentine wheat crop was at 2 critical stage and that frost was looked for tonight counted also in favor of fhe bulls. On the other hand, gossip abo,,t disturbed foreign financial conditions appeared to be acting as more or less of a check on the advance.
 Corn and oats rallied with wheat, Ru- ral offerings Of corn were light. More attention was given to the movement fostered by bankers and government of ficials to aid farmers in holding corn for better prices.
 Provisions reflected the frnnes. o1 hog values.

ORIGIN OF PETER MANNINc's
 UNUSUAL SPEED

Lexington, Ky, Nov. 3-When l'eusI' Manning and Aaron Guy e.,,,1D-.-.-y7>t new world speed records during the fall trotting season held here recent Iy thousands of spectators took the performances as a matter of course while breeding specialists and close followers of the sport went home to cover if possible the origin of the un- usual speed displayed by the two ami malS.
 A study of pedigrees made by Prof. W. s. Anderson, an authority on horse breeding and a member of the animal huSbandry department of the kentuc- key College of Agriculture, shows that the two animals derived their abili- ty for speed from Axworthy, a sire who was not exceptionally fast him. self but one who is noted for the speed of his get and that of hls sons. He ha sa record of 2:14 1-2.
 Studies made by Prof. Anderson show that Peter Manning who set a new worlds record for the mile by reducing the time from 5S to 1:57 3-4 could not have obtained his speed from his mother, Glendora, G., 3, who had a track record of 2.25 3-4 nor from her sire Emmet Grafton, who had a l record of 2:2S.
 "On the other hand one would not pick the sire of Peter Manning, Azoff, i who has a record of 2:14 IA for a mile 1 to produce the greatest speed of any sire of breed but it must be conced- ed that the champions speed came to l him from his sire since he could not have obtained it from his dam." Prof Anderson said.
 The dam of Azoff is Dolly Worthy l TTJt-.

 worthy, who went a mile in 1:5S 1-4
 Peter Manning obtained three of th
 requisites of speed from several diff
 ferent sources, further studies mad by Prof. Anderson show. These re
 quirements are speed, or the abiHt,
 to carry speed for a. mile and to re , peat and intelligence, or the abilit, and willingness to be raine1 and rae ed. No one family of trotting horse
 has all these requisites, according t Prof. Anderson.
 In spite of the fact that he was no t fast horse, Axworthy, who contribut . ed extreme speed to the makeup o

duced by any trotting sire, Prof. An derson said.
 Tt is safe to say that the greatest contribution which any sire has ever made of a breed is Peter the Great s gift of toughness to his descendants :, Prof. Anderson said. ''He also has pass ed on extreme speed but it's value in his offspring has not been as great perhaps as his contribution of endur- ance. Peter Manning got this tougnness or endurance through his sire Azoff in a superlative degree. Last year he was a consistent trotter and established the world S record for three heats in 2:03, 2;02, 3-4 and 2:02 1-2. He also holds the worlds record for four-year old geldings with a mark of 2:02 1-2. Peter Manning's intelligence could 1 have come to him through more than one line of his pedigree. This is an i'm portant factor which is sometimes un- derated by people who view a trot- ! ting race. No matter how fact a horse
 may be or how great his endurance if he will not start right, stay in his gait or yield himself to his driver he will , not make records worthy of his speed and endurance"

 People who can possibly attend the game should como along and join the school body which will cheer it's team throughout the contest. Bu!keley has been cleaning up not a few games ana 9 victory for them will mean another feather in their hat. They have a good team, their line is powerful and their backf1eld is fast. The Academy VIII have to watch Lyons aT@ Mcdonald.
 For Norwich the probable lineup WI ] be: semple and Meek. ends; Sage and McNamara, tackles; Mousley and Vel lfngton. guards; Van Wagener, center Coyey. quarterback; Capt. Reed, right ha'f, williams, left half; and Brown fuilback.
 Boynton, the fighting fuilback, has been taken sick and will not in all prob ability play in tomorrow's contest. Bulkeley's lineup: Leary center, DaTi. so nand Chapman guards Bliven and Smith ends, probably Watterson, Sn1'tf or Zepp tackles: Lyons quarterback St. Germain, Fowler and Mcdonald, backs.
 The team will leave Norwich around o'clock and will be followed later by tht student body.
