Bedbug Nemesis
In Wee Scorpion

Winnipeg, Man., May s "a. P. by
maiD Presented to the world by
Prof. v. W. Jackson of the Manitoba
Agricultural College, scorpion is
reputed as sure death to the bed
bugs. The little warrior. which has
been waiting a name, was brought
in by a small boy when Professor
Jackson broadcast by radio his sus-
picion that such a scorpion might be
in Manitoba.
The new scorpion Is smaller than
a bedbug, but in numerous expert
mental combats has always killed
the famous nocturnal tormentor.
The bite of this scorpion is not in
furious to humans. Unlike scorpions
in the tropics and in parts of Man
itoba.. the bedbug slayer has no tail.
After the boy produced his speci-
men the bedbug slayer was found
all over Manitoba.

Chicago Produce Market

New high price records for the sea-
son were reached in the wheat market
today both by September and Decem-
ber deliveries. Crop damage reports,
especially from Indiana, Ohio and
Kansas, together with complaint of
dry weather northwest, led to much
increased activity among speculative
buyers. Closing quotations on wheat,
though, were unsettled, ranging from
one cent net decline to 43c gain, with
May 1.704 and July 1.653 to 1.65a. Corn
finished unchanged to age higher, oats
Z to 1gc up, and provisions ranged
from the same as yesterdays close to
a rise of tic.
Except during the first hour of busi-
ness wheat traders gave no attention
to anything other than crop news.
Lower quotations at Liverpool had
did somewhat better weather condi-
tions in this country, but then crop
damage reports began to pour in and
brought about persistent demand
that swallowed up proft-taking sales
