rangements have been made to show
his works to some critics who are
considered competent to pass on their
quality. To the ordinary observer
there is a wonderful realnesS to
these paintings that have been done
by a man near to the desert and
familiar with his subjects
One of the most interesting Of
the collection is water color OF
a yucca with its natural surround
ings. This entire piece was done
by Wenck in his spare time in a
little room at the stage offices and
each detail was done from memory
without a subject at hand.
The paintings are to be considered
by Mrs. E. E. Ainsworth as possible
subjects for the galleries of the
Rancho Manzanita and the officials
of the Douglas community hotel pro-
ject are also interested in the works
There are scenes showing the great
naked buttes that rise straight up
from the desert floors There are
scenes showing the desolate brilliaf1ce
of Arizona skies at sunset and in
every picture, disregarding any errors
that there may be in technique, there
is that realism of solemn, solitariness
which characterizes Arizona scenery.

CHICAGO, Nov. 4 tR)-Prospects OF
heavier deliveries of wheat by Canad-

complete did much to pull wheat
values down today. Besides, new ex-
port demand for North American
wheat apneared to have flattened out.
Closing quotations on wheat were un-
settled, 10 to 11zc net lower, with corn

provisions varying from 15c decline TO
a shade advance.
ADDING 10 selling pressure on the
market today were predictions which
were current that the Canadian gov
ernment would raise its estimates OF
the 1927 yield. In this connection a
Canadian trade expert was quoted as
saving that Alberta province may pro-
duce nearly as much as Saskatchewan
although Saskatchewan was about
double the acreage of Alberta The
contribution of Alberta according to
this authtT-ty, is the remarkable fea-
ture of this years Canadian crop, and
even better than expected, whereas
Manitoba and saskatchewan actual
returns are disappointing.
Numerous standing orders to sell out

were forced into operation here by to-
days setback in wheat prices. One OF
the contributing factors was word that
harvesting in advanced sections OF
Argentina is expected to start around
November 20. Meanwhile future sell
ing of wheat into store here was noted
and another shipload arrived fHom
Duluth. This cargo was of premium
grade and unlikely to be delivered on
Chicago speculative contracts
Corn and oats were relatively i1irm
in the face of wheat weakness. 1t
was reported that the Pacific coast
trade is reaching into Kansas and Neb-
raska for Corn at better prices than
Omaha or st. Louis are paying.
Scattered selling Of lard eased the
