stated.

bureau said.
while there are well recognized
alterations in climatic conditions, as
of wet and dry, hot and cold, ETC.,
little, is known with regard to def!

of change, if any, is too small and
the extent of the territory involved
too indefinite to be of economic in

CHICAGO, April 23.-Wheat started lower
but the market had some recovery in the
later trading. The selling at the start was
by May longs and there was pressure on the
deferred months because of the lower cables
and the further rains over the west and
southwest. On the dip commission houses
absorbed the offerings on resting orders and
later active local traders bid up prices en-

the better conditions over the winter wheat
belt. The milling demand for wheat con-
tinued slow and only moderate business in

quest of the interstate commerce
commission to drop a petition made
some time ago in regard to the aban-
donment of the service over the Ma

large number of big peach growers
along the line. Assurance has been
given that the Central of Georgia
railroad will handle the peach ship
ments up and down this line. 1t is

part of the line between the two
cities. Service over the M. & B. was
