New Upturns in Grain Follow
Set Back at Start
(By The Associated Press)


Chicago, June New upturns in
wheat today quickly followed set
back at the start. Initial declines
were brought about largely by fail
ure of Liverpool quotations to re-
fleet the advance scored yesterday
on this side of the Atlantic. Not
understanding the course of the Liv-
erpool market however, many traders
began acting promptly on an opin-
ion of unfavorable domestic condi-
tions which outweighed the influ-
cncc of world supply and demand.
Prospects Of hot winds in Kansas
added to this tendency. The market
closed unchanged to 1 Use lower,
July $163 1-2, to $1.64 and Septcm-
Der $l.59 IA to 1-2 were followed by
a rise which carried July to $l.67
Is and September to $1.63.
Near the end of the day increased
commission house buying led to a
further bulge in values. Offerings
were scarce. September and Deem
Der delivery both touched the high
est prices Of the season. Wheat
closed strong 2lsc to Az c higher,
July $16s to $685. and September

STARTS WAR

Rodents Undermining High
way and Making ii Dan
gerOus For Traffic

War on muskrats which have been
undermining the road and making 1t
dangerous for traffic is just one OF
the incidental Jobs of the state high
way commission. The battle front is
located about a mile and half west
of Napoleon and is about half mile
in length. 1t has been persistent
struggle for over two years with the
rats mining and countermining and
the maintenance squad of the high
way forces retaliating by filling IN
the weak spots of the road. The
rodents appeared to be getting the
upper hand even though the state
had spent over 100000 in one year
to counteract their mischicvous ac-
tivities. With Commissioner Her
man Hardt, Il resident of Napoleon,
in charge as gcneralisimo the high
way forces organized a poison gas
squad and have gone after the evil
with renewed vigor.

riders found their horses penetrating
a soft spot now and then. Had con-
ditions continued, it is possible that
a casualty might have resulted and
perhaps even forced the abandon

which was built about four years ago
runs westward from Napoleon, ira
verses swamp or marshy ground
for about three quarters of nile
and offers Il short west end entrance
to the city. TO make it perfectly
safe and rat proof, it was elevated
five feet above high water level and
liptapped solidIv on both sides. One
