wheat market took a decided upward
swing during the first hour of trading
Removal of hedges on 100000 BUSH
els, chiefly Canadian wheat taken from
Europe, tended further to hoise values.
However, after the December delivery
here had risen more than four cent s
above it's recent low point and had
virtually overcome all the loss occa-
stoned by recent big Canadian crop es-
Inmates. profit taking sales reached
such volume that a downturn in prices
ensued. All months dropped below
yesterdays finish. hut sonnet hing Of a
rally was again in progress as the day
drew to an end.
Bears in the wheat market put stress
mainly on the continued liberal re-
ceipls at Winnipeg and on the fact
that cash premiums there were lower.
Besides. more hedging pressure was
noted than for some time, and in this
connection it was said Canadian wheat
was nearly at price basis for i'm
port into the Omitted States. The fact
that the cabinet at Washington today
considered raising the tariff on wheat
was practically unknown here until the
market had closed.
Corn and oats We're dominated as
heretofore by frost damage and corn
scarcity. New high price records for
the season resulted both in corn and
oats.
Provisions reflected the better for
eign outlook.

Through a
Sieve Woven
Finer: Than
Silk

Raw materials Of which portland
cement is made come out Of the
ground usually as solid rock.
They must first be crushed,
ground and reground until at least
IS per cent of the resulting powder
will shake through sieve that will
actually hold water.
This sieve is considerably finer
than the finest silk fabric. 1t has
200 hair-like bronze wires to the
inch. That means 10000 holes to
the square inch.
But the several crushings and
grindings necessary to reduce solid
rock to this extreme fneness are
only the beginning of cement
making.
The powdered materials must then be SUBJ
,ected to intense heat for several hours in
huge rotary kilns. Here they are half melted
and become substance much harder than
the original rock-clinker, it is called.
Then the clinker must be crushed and
ground until at least 70 per cent Of the result
ing product will pass through the sieve woven
finer than silk This is portland cement.
More than 80 power and fuel consuming
operations are necessary in cement making:
The electric power alone used in producing
barrel Of portland cement would, if pur-
chased at usual household rates, cost $1.7O
Few manufactured products 60 through
so involved or complicated process as port
land cement. And it sells for less per pound
than any comparable manufactured product
