Growth "From Outside

One can not help but be optimistic

Striking features of this town are
it's natural beauty, its situation and
it's outstanding indelible invitation
for the home-seeker, grove owner
and business man, that five years
hence will prove wonders for this
one town of Polk that has the pecu-

prices comes simply from profit
taking and that general trend will
continue upward.
Gilt-EdEed Isues Firm.
Support for that point of view
may be had. 1t would appear. from
a study of the character of bonds
which lost most ground during the
day. Gilt-edged issues, and even
those of middle grade. are holding
their own territory in good style
SO far, and there are a number of
poorer bonds which have suffered
little or no loss, hut speculative
issues whose recent Improvement
has been sharp have been unloaded
at the market in many cases While
prices today for this type OF bonds
sagged slightly. there. was nothing
like an open market in any group
and the, poorer tone appeared to
come rather from cessation of buy
ing orders than wholesale unload
ings by traders fearful of a COL
lapse in prices.
Business in the foreign govern
ment department turned much uui-
eter today. and, with only a few
exceptions. was done at prices more
favorable to buyers than sellers.

were steady around their levels at

CHICAGO. April 2s.-Evening up
continues under way in May wheat
and while there was some scattered
selling which made a lower range
the breaks found support and the
inside prices were not maintained
with some buying by houses with
Eastern connections. The Greek or
der for $500. 900 bushels No. Mani
TOBIAS for May shipment was placed
over night. and there was also
around 100000 bushels more sold
to the continent in addition to 5oo.-
900 bushels new crop winters. The
resumption of hedges against the
old grain and buying of July as a
hedge against the new had some ef-
feet on values, and while the aver
age was lower the undertone was
not weak. There is a disposition
to go slow on either side of the
market by traders at the present
time waiting to see how the de-
lfvertes on May contracts were
taken care of. Political develop
ments at Geroa had an important
effect on Liverpool, which closed
1a2 d lower, but the effect of the
decline was very limited here. Crop
reports from the Southwest show
Improvement and those from Europe
are unfavorable, especially from
France.

Corn and oats showed a firm under
its bid on cash corn and the price is
now said to be practically the same
as a delivery basis as compared
