good six horse team was able to exert
a greater tractive pull and could walk
right away with a load which the ele-
plants were able to pull for very
short distances at each effort
The elephant handlers contend that
an elephont is not adapted to pulling
and this is probably true as the breast
harness which is put on them does in
terfere with free motion. The ele-
phantmen insist that elephants can
push with their heads better than they
can pull with breast collars but facili-
ties for testing this out were not
available; hence, this question cannot
be answered.

WHEAT VALUES GAIN "

ing Factors Today.

CHICAGO, October 15.-wheat
scored new price gains early here to-.
day. owing chiefly to firmer quotations
at Liverpool than were looked for. Be-,
sides. indications pointed to wintry
weather in Canada likely to interfere
with threshing. After opening "a to
y up. Chicago wheat values reacted
little and then rose higher than be-
fore. Corn and oats were easy, corn
starting unchanged to Il advance, but
later sagging somewhat. Provisions
tended upgrade. :.
Notwithstanding that Chicago wheat
prices at times today proved respon-
sive to increasing strength of the
Liverpool market, the effect was more
or less counterbalahced by advices
that the principal influence abroad
was advancing vessel rates and scare
,ity of ocean tonnage, a circumstance
construed as bearish on this side of
the Atlantic. Meanwhile, reports
about frost in Argentina said some
damage to wheat had resulted. but
specific details were not yet available
Comment here by crop authorities
is to the effect that If, as reported,
there has been frost in northern Cor
doba, Argentina, it is a serious mat
ter. Cordoba is one of the big wheat
districts of Argentina. and the wheat
crop there Is stated to be now i'm the
