chicago, july -N.--tsPl
Wheat and corn parted company to-
day, wheat prices going down where
s corn went up. Showers and lower
temperatures northwest. helpful to the
spring weat crop. had a decided bear
lsh effect on wheat values. Hot, dry
weather in the west lifted the corn
market. Closing quotations on wheat
were unsettled, 20 to &c net lower. with
corn AT &C to lac gain, oats vary ing
from &c decline to &c advance and pro-
visions &C to 45c down
The wheat market appeared over
bought and there was no denying that
houses recently active as purchasers
were among the leading sellers today.
Some increase Of hedging sales was
also an outstanding feature and the
July delivery here dropped to a dis
count as compared with September. In

thus disposed of was only 10, 900 BUSH
els. but talk was current that heavy
movementof new winter wheat from
the central states is beginning and
that ready absorption of large arrivals
in Chicago may prove difficult.
With cutting of wheat expected TO
start in South Dakota next week, some
doubt was expressed whether under
such cirCum stances any crop improve
ment would result from rains or cool
err temperatures either in South Dako-
ia or southern Minnesota. ON the
other hand. export demand was slow,
world stocks Increased 2.170.000 bush
els for the week, and domestic arrivals
from the southwest continued liberal
with 740 cars at Kansas City alone.
Temperatures of around 100 in the
west, together with lack of rain. gave
notable stimulus to buying Of future
deliveries of corn. regardless of the
action of wheat. Oats, however, sA M

New Irrigation System

In the "City Beautiful" program
innaugurated last year along Alb

feet high, have been planted. A

made for laying pipes. Although
the water line is laid underground
there are projections sticking up
so that it can be lifted and used
for irrigation purposes. The sys-
tenn eliminates the hose lines gen.
orally used for this work, and is
self-draining and no%n-freeZing.
Fresh soil will top the leveled
ground and a fertilizer will be
put on. This completed, grass
and flower beds will be started
similar to those in the Brighton
and Albany ave. Parks.
