Corn Grower Tells
How To Cure It

VINGSTON-Elmer G. Biddick,

warns farmers against the antiquated
method of curing seed corn under the
caves of barns and porch hoods. His
method of producing the very best
seed corn and oats is fire cured, and
the same system is employed at the

made in the field and not at the corn

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY
MARKET REPORT

Kansas City, Sept. 28.-The best fat
steers and stockers and feeders were
steady compared with late last week,
but the bulk of the supply which was
in the medium class was Is to rs
cents lower At the decline trade was
active. There was large outlet for
stockers and feeders. The corn belt
is now buying freely and will continue
to do so. Hog prices were down Is to
25 cents compared with last weeks
close, but still 25 to 40 cents higher
than a week ago. Lambs were Is
cents higher than Friday and fully 50
cents above the low point last Wednes-
day.
Beef Cattle
The offerings of fat cattle today
were plain quality, mostly grass fat
and short fed, kinds that sold Is to
25 cents lower. Where steers showed
any material amount of feed or had
enough quality to attract feeder bid
they were steady. Receipts of 81 900
cattle in Chicago and 25,0O0 in Omaha
tended to weaken the situation. Chi
cago had 1000 straight grassers from
the northwest and a liberal run of

BOSTON Wool MARKET

Though rather more quiet than a
week ago, there is still a fair amount
of business being done, and Summer
street reports net only much interest
on the part Of mill buyers, but also
great urgency to have all purchase
shipped at once. That buyers Of for
eign Mools in bond are withdrawing
current purchases is regarded as an
other indication that the mills are
getting good business and raHicu-
larry that they are unusually short Of
wool. The use Of rayon is increas ne
and wool men see a certain degree Of
menace in the possible displacement
Of wool in certain fabrics, especially
in women's-wear goods. London con-
tinues strong, and the same is true of
the Australian auctions. Yet there is

new RIVER CONFERENCE
SEEN IN VARIOUS MOVES

Phoenix.-At the capitol are ru-
nlors of a new conference with Cali
fornia over the Colorado river for ap-
portionment Of the water of the
stream But this conference is not
to be with the California and Nevada
representatives who met here the gov
ernor of Arizona ard his committee
on August II and who went home soon
after Gov G. w. P. Hunt had issued a
pronunciamento.
1t appears to be planned that there
shall be continuance Of the governors
committee, which is COMPOSED of his
secretary, H. S. McCluskey, F. A.
Reid, president of the Salt River Val
ley Water Users association; Thomas
Maddox, who was state engineer un-
der republican administrations; G. S.
VanDyke, a Miami capitalist, and A.
C. McGregor, a Bisbee mining engi-
neer.
1t is said to be planned that the
next conference shall be in Los An
geles or some other southern Cali
fornia city, but with Californians who
will not demand that acceptance of the
Boulder canyon project must be an
Initial concession on the part of the
rArizonans. Just who these Cali
fornians will be is not to be learned
just now. Possibly they have not even
been selected.
Just where their authority to repre-
sent their state will have derivation
cannot be learned, or whether they
will be members of the state legisla-
ture or not. The tale still is incom-
plete, rather woozy in its constitution
because of its immaturity. Yet adj
vices from around the throne appear
authentic on the main point that a
conference is being arranged.
The Arizona legislative committee,
with its own assent, has been left
wholly without consideration, though
is declared that the California and
Nevada river delegations would meet
with the local legislators any time
they care to get into conference. But

they would a hot poker, and they are

Have YOU ever been to the Grand

which are part of the Fred Harvey
system at the big cash in mother

next to the big world wonder, the
Grand Canyon, comes the service and
