MARKRT QUILTS DOWN,
BY STUART p. WEST
tCopyright. 1921

The market today followed the
customary procedure after the cul-
minatlon OF very sharp decline
and the ensuing first sharp re-
bound. Traders of the in and out
variety who bought Tuesday morn
Ing were inclined 10 take their prof
Its while there was again disinclin-
alton to follow prices UP. This
combination of moderate selling
and reduced buying power was the
technical explanation of the uncer-
tain drift after a further advance
at the opening. Street sentiment
was mixed as to the probable course
OF prices. but on one thing all were
agreed, and that was that a period
OF much quieter trading lay ahead
SHIPPING STOCKS.
Shipping stocks had a sharp rise
at the outset on President Hard
ing's letter to the chairman of the
house rules committee threatening
TO call an extra session of congress
! in case the ship subsidy legislation
was not put through at the regular
session. Marine Preferred ran up
two points, Marine common over a
point and American Ship and Com
merce point. Those advances
were. however, more or less senti-
/ mental and did not hold long.
STUDEBAKER
The rumor of an extra dividend
on Studebaker is making its ap-
pearance once again. This time
street hears that the directors will
make an extra payment of IS a
share at the next meeting of the
/ board which is scheduled for the
! last week in July. Studebaker earn
! ings continue at the same marvel
/ GUS rate as in the early part of the
year. The showing for the full
/ year it is expected will be in the
neighborhood of $50 a share.
MARTIN PARRY.
The merger of the Atlas and Sell
: den Truck companies will bring
! much new business to Martin Par
ry. The dominant interests in the
! new industrial motors are also
identified with Martin Parry. Mar
tin Parry earnings for May are I'M
derstood to have established anoth-
err high monthly record.
BARNSDALL.
/ Inc TepoTtS HedTu several WeeAs
ago regarding the possibility OF new
banking interests taking over the
control of the Barnsdall company
were heard again today, but with
this distinction: negotiations are
nearing completion. Barnsdal, as
nearly everyone knows, has a - J
cheap gasoline process, one thai
will bring the price of motor fuel
down considerably from the price
at which it is now selling. This
fuel has been given thorough try
out in Cleveland by bus company
and is said to be all that its spon-
sors claim for it.

L. S. Yards, Chicago, June IA
Steers reached the years high wa
ter mark today when on l0-cent
higher market for choice beeves
two loads sold TO local killers at
975. Fresh supplies were mod
crate, but demand for grades OF
beeves over the SIS line was ac-
tive. An advance in hogs placed
the market on a firm basis at the
weeks highest levels. Live NUT
tons continued in poor request and
while sales were delayed the mar

Receipts today were 1900 cattle,
90 900 hogs. 10000 sheep and p
600 calves.
CATTLE.
Common to fair beeves were in
moderate call at steady prices. IN
ferior offerings were dull. Butcher
stock was generally slow, but with
out material price changes. Bulls
were strong to dime &igher, bo-
Iognas reaching 4 80. Calves were
hard to sell. packers demanding
cuts of 81 so as to place the cost of
veal in line with the reduction in
lamb prices this week.
HOGS.
The stale supply of hogs amount
ing to 7.1S1 brought the average in
the market to a respectful level,
but nevertheless buyers became
anxious and competition for lights
and butcher weights. the market
rose another sc to 10c, putting the
top at 1915 and the bulk of good
butchers at 1910 tc 1866. Packing

CROP SCARE IS
BIG FACTOR IN
WHEAT BULGES
tBy Consolidated Press.)

Chicago, June 14.-There was a
crop scare on and this was respon-
sfble for the bulge in prices early
The start was easier, there being
some selling for northwest account
and locals Black rust reports
from North Dakota, damage by hail
in that state and reports of heat in
the major portion of Nebraska,
Kansas and Missouri caused pit
traders to cover their short wheat
and accumulated long lines. There
was commission house selling
around top price. Weekly crop re-
ports talks of premature ripening
in parts of Kansas There was an
improved export demand for wheat
at the seaboard and United King
dom was reported in the market.
A local house reported $4,000 bush
els of wheat sold to exporters. Re-
ceipts at Chicago were light but
they were of good volume in the
southwest and northwest Mime
apolis reported a little improve
ment in the flour. trade but cash
wheat was unchanged to &c lower.
Mills took a moderate amount of
wheat out of this market.
Corn was firm from the start,
although the strength in wheat en-
abled bulls to force good advance.
Trade was slow and the feature
| was the lack of selling pressure
nti prices advanced over a cent.
! There was a better cash demand in
J evidence and spot corn was firmer
| in tone. Receipts continue of good
voume but primary arrivals were
under a year ago.
| Oats were firm with other grains.

news is disquieting.

DruGoods Market
By STUART p WEST
Copyright, 19Z2-J

New York, June 14.-Prices were
firm in the market for cotton cloths
today but caution until the raw
cotton market shall have stabilized
itself still was a marked feature Of
operations. Some business was
recorded in spot print cloths with
the narrower constructions in most
demand. Mills held firmly for
prices slightly above spot quota
tions for future deliveries and
goods were not pressed for sale.
Sheetings were taken in limited
way by jobbers but sateens were
slightly les sactive. Cotton duck
was quiet but drills were in fair
demand
Buyers in the raw silk market
resisted strongly the advance in the
trend of prices noted in Oriental
centers ana buying was largely OF
a filing in character, manufactur-
ers purchasing to fill incompleted
runs.
WOOL.
Boston, June 14-Some wool was
sold here today but the market was
quiet though firm. This tendency
was strengthened by the slight ad-
vance in East India woods at Liver
pool and the comparative steadiness
of the better grade of woods at the
London sales. The kerrville Texas
sales will open tomorrow and ad-
vance reports gave no indication OF
! weakening in prices by the grow
ers. Some of the Missouri growers
have refused bids of 43 cents fol
combing and 80 cents for medium
woods and taken their clips bach
home. New wool is arriving here II

HARD TO EXPLAIN RAIN

The weather men have been try
ing to answer the question, "How
does it rain?" It is a hard question,
says DR.. W. J. Humphreys of the
United States weather bureau. Z
'Iots of people are content to say
that the droplets at the top Of the
cloud pick up others on their way
down and come out at the bottom
full-sized raindrops," he said. "That
sounds nice, but those who give this
explanation seem to overlook the fact
that clouds can float in the sky for
days without giving drop Of rain"
4 He has calculated how big a drop
would result from such a fall, and
it turns out that cloud particle
falling from top to bottom of dense
cloud mile thick and picking up
every other droplet in its way would
come out only one-sixteenth of an
inch in diameter, much smaller than
an ordinary raindrop.-Kansas City

Government Recipe
For WhiteWaSh

During t b e spring months
many farmers plan to renovate
and whitewash their buildings
and for their benifit the tested
Government recipe for making
whitewash is printed:
Slack one half bushel of lime,
dissolve one peck of common
salt an d boil three pounds of
rice until it is thick paste. Mix
these together and add while the
mixture is still hot one half
pound of plaster of paris and one
pound of dissolved glue. Then
add five gallons of water and let
it stand for few days. Apply
hot to the building with small
brushes. A quart of carbolic
acid makes this mixture a good
disinfectant.

BEST MAKEUP FOR FRIEDRICH
Exhaustive Researches Seem to Have
Definitely Settled Matter for
Good Results.

LIE !Chatelier and Bogitch have
been engaged for some time in re-
searches upon firebrick and the best
makeup to be employed. Such fire
brick is composed of granulated
silica and various oxides in powder
used as a binding material. 1t is
found that the best binding sub
stance is impalpable quartz powder,
which is produced in special crush
ing mills. The use of this powder
considerably increases the strength
of the bricks at high temperature
Of 1000 degrees centigrade, and this
is one Of the most important quail
ties of frebrick.
Again, the proportion of rs per
cent of the powder gives much better
results than rs per cent, for when
too much of it is employed the bricks
all show small cracks after heating,
which will become larger under a
long heat.
