visions unchanged to 80 cents down.
Announcement that domestic visible
stocks of wheat showed 4,530,0 900 bush
els decrease todaya much greater
shrinkage than had been looked for,
was promptly followed by decided
rally from price setbacks which earlier
had been the rule. Then, too, reports
began to pour in telling of lack of
snow protection against low tempera-
lures predicted for the entire winter
wheat region of the United States.
Under such circumstances the market
climbed quickly and the finish was
the days tip-top figures.
Prior to the late advance, wheat
values were dominated to consider
able extent by reports that the Ar
gentine harvest was making rapid
progress, and that new wheat of ex-
cellent quality was on the movement
to Argentine ocean ports Current
trade gossip said also that crop dam
age in Argentina was less serious than
had been reported, that European de-
mand for North American wheat con-
tinued slow pending further down
turn of ocean freight rates and that
price setbacks abroad were largely
due to inferior wheat at Liverpool be-
ing graded as contract.
Corn prices headed downward today
in anticipation of a bigger run of re-
ceipts on the other hand the increase
of 900 bushels, shown by visible
supplies of corn was less than had beer
expected. Oats were responsive to 8

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-R)-Strength
and activity of the motor shares over
shadowed all other developments in to-
days irregularly higher movement of
stock prices. The advance took place
in the face of stiffening of call money
rates and a revival of rumors of mo-
tor car price cuts. AS in most ses-
sions in recent weeks, trading was
largely professional in character with
so-called public participation limited
largely to the purchase of high grade
stocks for investment due, in part, to
the low yields of obtainable on most
high grade bonds.
The higher call money rate followed
the calling of over $25,O00,000 in loans
in preparation for federal income
taxes and other mid-month payments
The weekly statement of the New
York federal reserve bank showed in
crease of only $S,125,OO0 in brokers'
loans in the week ended last Wednes-
day. The credit situation generally
continues favorable with indications of
further easing of rates after the first
of the year.

Standardized Cities

Fifty years from now the traveller in
America will be, impressed with the
similarity in general plan and appear
ance OF American cities. This has
been made certain by the passage of
zonins ordinances in practically every
important center of population in the
United States. Latest figures by the
Department Of Commerce indicate
more than half of the urban popula-
ton live in zoned cities and towns. In
1916 only tenth resided in comuuni-
ties where coming ordinances governed
building activities and city develop
ment. The number of zoned cities in
creased from 6 in 1916 to 70 in 1921,
265 in 1923 and 425 in 1925. Grouped
according to population, AZ of the IS
largest cities in the United States hav-
ing over 100000 population and $50 Of
the 287 cities and towns having over
$4,000 population have coming ordi-
nances in effect.-Lincoln Star.

Rose-Trellis Worth While

An alluring little rose-trellis is a
fascinating adjunct to any country or
suburban home, or, in fact, any home
that is not cramped for space.
Even the amateur carpenter can
construct an article like this, since it
is little more than an arch over a
seat. The arch is made of lattice
work so that climbing vine may find
a firm hold. A back of open wood
work for the seat is in keeping with
the airy nature of the trellis.
The whole should be painted either
white or green. White is the more
effective as background for the
greenery of the vines and the bright
color of the pink or red roses. A COM
paratively small space will provide
room for this bower.

Avoid Butterfat
Losses in Cream
Washing and Cleansing of
Separator Is Big Factor
in Swimming.

Thorough washing and cleaning of
the cream separator is an important
factor in clean Swimming. Many dairy
farmers are losing butterfat in skim
milk unbeknown to them. There are
many causes for loss Of butterfat In
skim milk, as 1t comes from the sep
arator. The speed Of the machine,
temperature of the milk, rate of in
flow, cleanliness of machine, smooth
ness of running and other factors will
affect the amount of butterfat lost.
The only way to guard against it is
to test skim milk regularly.
Minnesota Investigation.
An investigation by Goodwin Rog-
ness, COW tester in Minnesota, re-
vealed definite advantages in favor of
clean separators. Twenty-four separa-
tors were inspected and divided into
three groups as to methods of clean
Ing. Group one, composed Of five ma
chimes, was washed twice daily. After
each separation, the skim milk was
tested for butterfat. The loss per
month on 300 pounds of skim milk
daily was Is pounds butterfat, worth
SO cents. Group two, composed OF
eight machines, was washed once a
day and flushed out with warm or
cold water in the evening.
The loss per month on 300 pounds
skim milk daily was 81 pounds butter
fat, worth $1.13. Group three was
composed of IL machines washed
once day and flushed with skim milk
or not at all. The loss per month on
300 pounds skim milk was 5.22 pounds
butterfat, worth $2.19. 1t was noted
that the morning Swimming in each
case contained the most butterfat.
Yearly Saving.
Putting the above figures on year
ly basis, it is seen that those in group
one were paid at the rate of $1S.72 a
year for washing the separators twice
day. Running warm or cold water
through the machine after the. evening
separating saved $12.72 year as COM
pared with group three where little or
no attention was given the separator
between the evening and morning
skimming.
This investigation and others that
could be cited, show the Importance
Of washing the separator after each
separation.-Floyd E. Ball, Deputy
Colorado Dairy Commissioner.

Latest Developments in
Cucumber Pest Control

The latest development in the con-
troll of the cucumber beetle consists
of a buster equipped with length
of tubing and metal cone a foot or
more in diameter The cone, or hood,
is placed on the ground over the plant
and the dust applied. The beetles
have no chance for a getaway.
Another refinement is for four
tubes inside the cone which carry the
dust close to the ground so as to
reach the under side of the plant.
Holes at the top of the cone provide
an upward draft and assist in giving
excellent application. The material
used is nicotine dust containing a high
percentage of nicotine.
Of course, the old way is still effec-
tive, namely, repelling the beetles by
busting with / Id. of calsium arsenate
and Is lbs. of gypsum, or with l lb.
of calsium arsenate, lbs. of wheat
flour, and 10 lbs. of lime. The new
method, however, gives that added
satisfaction that comes from killing
the pest outright!

Most Successful Method
for Controlling Weeds

Now is the time to destroy the
weeds. Do not wait until they have
taken the field, but get out the har-
row and kill them before they get
the root started. Every weed that is
permitted to get start takes some
Of the essential food elements that
might be used in producing healthy,
strong stalks of wheat or corn.
It is pretty well established that
the man who delays his fight against
weeds until about all of them get
inch or more in height is decreasing
the yield of his crop
The more successful method of con.
trolling the weed crop is to not de-
lay until all the weed seed are germi-
mated but get busy and fight them as
soon as they break through the
ground. A man who follows the prac-
tice Of never ceasing his warfare
against the weeds never has to buy
corn for his hogs and horses.

Schedule of Odd Jobs
Will Help Home Gunner

1t is good thing to have month
by-month schedule of repairs for the
home, so that the various odd jobs can
be anticipated and done in the proper
season. A midwinter blizzard is no
time to patch leaking roof, nor is
the fly period suitable for repairing
screens. There is also the point of
service and economy in buying equip
ment, as heating plant in the Off
season, and likewise in hiring certain
work to be done. f
The following schedule of odd jobs
and repairs for the summer and fall,
which may be modified to suit local
conditions, is recommended by John R.
Mcmahon, national authority on
home ownership, in Popular Science
Monthly.
July; Make thorough repairs on
the roof. Replace alt missing or rotted
shingles and stop leaks. Inspect gut
tiers and leaders for patching, paint
Ing or replacement.
August: A good time for excava-
tons of any kind. If foundations or
cellar walls need tarring or cement
plaster, do it now. All kinds of gen.
eral building can be done without
much need for weather protection.
September: If new heating plant
is needed install it now. Apply wealth
er stripping. Renew floors. Fix up
the coal bin and put in a supply Of
winter fuel.
October: Get the heating plant
ready to fire up. Clean chimney from
the roof down. Point up loose bricks
with cement. Connect furnace smoke
pipe-new if required.
November: Take down screens and
screen doors. Rake up leaves around
the house. Start furnace.

New Whitewash Formula
Gives Durable Product

Whitewash acts as a germicide by
covering and cleansing the wall and
ceiling surfaces, and for this reason
is excellent in the poultry house, dairy
barn, hog house, and other outbuild-
ings.. A new formula developed with
l. ecent years gives product
b closely approaches paint in
d, fifty.
1.e old-fashioned whitewash is
made of quicklime and water mixed
in the proportions of one pound of
lime to one gallon of water. This has
the disadvantage of being not very
durable and of rubbing off badly on
the clothing of workers.
The New Jersey College of Agricul-
ture advises that whitewash may be
made durable, hard, glossy. and prac-
tically waterproof by the addition of
salt, alum and sulphate Of zinc. Such
a mixture is good for both interior
and exterior use. To make it, /
bushel (62 lbs.) of quicklime Is
Stacked in II gallons of hot water
Then another solution is made up of
the following: l pound of sulphate Of
zinc, l pound of alum, pounds of
salt, dissolved in 2 gallons of boiling
water. These two solutions are then
mixed together and 2 gallons of
skinned milk are added.
Keep the mixture thoroughly stirred
while applying.

Prevent Egg Eating by
Darkening All Nests

Egg eating is another vice that hens
sometimes learn when kept in close
confinement, or are not fed sufficient
animal material. The trouble usually
starts from a hen scratching in the
nest and accidentally breaking an egg.
If she does it once, the chances are
good that she will try it again, and
the habit is soon formed. To avoid
the formation of such habit and to
cure it, in case it is formed, all nests
should be more or less dark. A long
covered box, with single entrance
at one end, is most practical for the
nests.
