CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, August 3 CP.-Unofficial
crop estimates suggesting total yield
of about $50, 100000 bushels of wheat III
the United States this season gave a
decided upward swing to wheat prices
today. The amount named is only
little in excess Of domestic require
ments Another private estimate put
the total at 672 900, 900 bushels. Crop
damage reports from Saskatchewan
province in Canada tended also to
lift values and led to buying, in which
houses with foreign connections were
prominent. The opening, which
ranged from half to 2 cents higher,
September 1.54A to 1.5412 and De-
cember 154a to 1.55A was followed
by a further advance that carried
September TO 1.55 and December to
1857.
Corn and oats sympathized with
wheat strength. After opening at
half cent to l cent higher, September
1.O47s to 1.05is. the noon market con-
tinued up grade, September touching

Oats started at a shade to half cent

STOCKS RUN HIGHER.
Upward Movement at Opening of
Market Today
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 3.-Respond-
ing TO favorable trade reports and
earnings statements, stock prices re-
sumed their upward movement at the
opening of today's market. General
Electric opened 21a points higher at
300, the highest price reached since
the segregation of the Electric Bond
and Share holdings; Houston Oil ad-
vanced a point and scores of other in
dustrials and rails showed substantial
fractional gains.
Pools again were active in a number
of speciaIties. Additional new 1925
high records were established in the
first half hour by International Tele-
phone, Standard Gas & Electric,
Frank G.. Shattuck, Spicer Manufac-
turing, Gold Dust and Coco Cola.
General Electric quickly extended its
gain to 61a points. A strong demand
also developed for the Steels, motors,
mail order and merchandising shares.
Gain of a point or more above Satur-
days final quotations were recorded
during the first hour by United States
Steel common, Sloss-Sheffield, Sears
Roebuck Montgomery Ward, Wool
worth, American Can, du Pont, Fisher
Body. Mack Trucks, Chrysler and sew
eral others. Nash Motors broke 10
points on one sale and Cuba Cane pre-
ferred sank TO a new low level for
the year.
Trading in the foreign exchanges
was quiet. due to the observance of
the bank holiday in Great Britain, and
most rates We're little changed. De-
mand sterling and French francs held
steady at S4.S53s and 4.74 cents, re-
Spectively. Danish kroner rallied over
90 points to 22.57 cents.
Sharp Break in Nash Motors.
A sharp break of 30 points in Nash
Motors unsettled some of the other
motors before midday, and brought
about Irregularities in other sections
of the list, but the main trend con-
tinued upward. Heaviness of the
equipments was in anticipation of
poor earnings for the first half of the
year because of the low rate of oper-
ationS of some of the larger COM
panieS.
Speculative interest in the rails
was confined largely to the South
western carriers, particularly those in
which favorable dividend develop
ments are believed to be pending.
The sharp advance in several special
ties indicated scanty floating supply
of those stocks, United States Cast
Iron Pipe jumping points, Brown
Shoe Az and Great Western Sugar,
International Harvester and Frank
q. Shattuck selling to 312 points
higher before the end of the second
hour. New York Gamers fell back
points on profit taking. Call money
renewed at 4l4 per cent.

SEES BIG COTTON TOTAL.
New York Exchange Estimates
100000 Bales Available.

NEW YORK, August CR.-A
cotton crop of 100000 bales this
year, with the carry-over from last
year. would make over 1900, 900
bales of American cotton available for
consumption next year, Edward f.
Bartlett, jr., former president of the
New York Cotton Exchange, pointed
out today in his weekly review of the
cotton market. THE bullish en-
thusiasm which followed the last Gov
ernment condition report" he said,
has been dissipated within the past
few days by the most important de-
velopment of good rains in Oklahoma
north and west Texas. These rains
have been sufficiently copious to COM
pletely break the drought in these i'm
portant areas, and have improved the
prospect to an extent estimated as
high as 10000 bales.'

BACTERIA ARE BOTH
GOOD AND EVIL

the tester is composed Of white blood
corpusclcs which have been rushed
to the infected area to destroy the
harmful bacteria. ...
This is natures way of protecting
harmful bacteria. When the white
cOrpusclcs arc not present in suffi-
cicnt quantities or are not able to
destroy the harmful bacteria. the in
fection spreads. This spreading is
due to the fact that bacteria multiply
with amazing rapidity.
Sometimes, although not usually,
bacteria can double themselves in AS
short Il space Of time as 30 seconds.
While the body, by means Of its white
blood corpusclcs, destroys many of
these harmful bacteria every day, it
is Of the utmost Importance that as
sistance be given whenever Il foreign
substance enters the body.
A good disinfcctant should be used
immediately-for small injuries iod
inc or some other simple disin
fcctant which your doctor can recon-
mend. Any deep or long cut should
be treated by physician at once.
Prompt treatment will prevent the
growth Of harmful bacteria. Since
bacteria multiply SO rapidly, treat
ment should be administered immc-
diatcly. Watch the small cuts,
splintcrs, needles, pins. knives--all
may carry bacterial infections which
unless promptly disinfccted may re-
suit in serious and painful consc-
quences.
