Miss Sage Pleases
with Clever Reading
of HARRINGTON Plav

Miss Grace Sage, talented reader
presented Booth Tarkington's 1.-THE
Country Cousin" last night at the
Universalist vestry under the aus
pices OF the Y. P. c. U. of that
church. Although the weather was
bad. good number of people were
present to hear this reader and they
were very well pleased with the play
and the manner in which it was rem
dered.
Miss Sage delivers the play with an
inf1exion and change OF voice that
leaves no doubt as to the person
speaking. She also uses little mo-
tions and mannerisms which bring
the action clearly before the au-
dience.
The play deals with a girl from
Ohio who has been living with her
mother since she was a little child,
her parents having. been divorced.
She becomes heir to a large sum of
money and later her father induces
her to leave her mother an dto 60 to
New York where they live. In leav-
ing she also leaves country sweet
heart behind her.
Later her cousin goes to visit her
and finds that her father il living in
a manner beyond his means and then
finds that the girls money is being
used to support the family and to
make costly presents to the girls
stepmother. After more or less trou.

PRICES
ARE ERRATIC;

(By Consolidated Press.)

Chicago, June 1s.-Trade in
wheat was decidedly uninteresting.
Trend of prices was erratic but the
greater part of the session they
were lower. There was a sharp
break at the start on scattered
pressure and the lack of buying.
A rally ensued the next hour on
buying by cash houses and short
covering. On the bulge there was
wheat for sale. A northwest house
sold July and bought September
and an export concern sold Sep
TENDER and bought December dur
ing the later trading. Weather
was cooler over the greater part Of
the country. Rains accompanied by
heavy winds were reported over
Kansas and this caused a temper
airy halt in harvesting. There was
a better milling demand for wheat
and sales of $4,000 bushels were
reported. Drop in foreign exchange
rates curtailed export business.
&c lower Visibly supply decreased
1,194, 900 bushels last week. Kan
sas City receipts continued heavy,

Corn followed wheat. Trade was
local. Lack of buying caused a
slump early but support from pro-
fessionals followed. Later the in
crease Of 202, zee IN the visible sup
ply induced some pressure. Cash

slow both for domestic and export
account. Receipts continue large.

New York, June 19.-There was
some action of buying orders in the

however, showed no inclination to
sag, and the market for 64x60's

particularly active and there was
considerable demand in drills. Pa

CROP REPORTS
AREFAv0RABLE
Statistician Says Corn Outlook l.
Distinctly Good; Winter Wheat
Ripening.

According to the semi-monthly
report of A ]. Surratt, agricultural
statistician for Illinois, a satisfac-
tory termination of corn has fol-
lowed late planting, ripenipg OF
winter wheat is favorable, the rye
harvest is beginning and there is
favorable outlook for an excellent
fruit crop.
Corn has terminated quite even
ly as a rule and growth has made
good progress under the prevailing
high temperatures. Advancement
of growth for different fields va
ries sharply due to wide range of
planting dates. Scattered early
fields show stands nearly up to
average with some of the later
fields just above the ground. Guilt
walton has gone forward rapidly
with the second cultivation OF
many fields completed. Reports
indicate little change in acreage
from that of year ago.
Winter wheat ranges from rip
ening in the south to well into the
filling stage in the north. The crop
shows unusual straw growth this
season with spotted lodging in
heavy stands especially in the cen
trail and\ northern areas. Due
chiefly to the adverse effects OF
heat during the present critical
filling stage much of the crop, and
to a slight extent to rust and i'll
sect impairment, the crop outlook
is slightly less favorable than on
June l but continues above aver
age for the state as a whole.
coats outlook is below average
due to the late and generally an
satisfa Glory planting conditions
Earlier fields are heading short and
inclined in show patchy growth
Spring wheat and barley below
average but somewhat/better than
oats as the acreage of these crops
is largely in the northern area.
Rye harvest is starting in the
south with prospect for a good croI
generally. Alfalfa and Glover har-
vest is now in progress with favor
| able yields reported.
THE general fruit crop outlook
is above average with the peach
crop prospects especially favora-
ble."

FINANCIAL NOTES

The automobile trade is watch
ing anxiOusly for the return of
Henry and Wilfred Leland into the
production field. Many believe that
the relief from the management of
the Lincoln Motors is preparatory
TO a new start in the production of
a high grade car, to be named the
Leland. This is backed by reports
that banking interests in the east
have offered financial aid which
will provide new start in the au-
tomobile industry for the Lelands.
