WHEAT PRICE SAGS
IN LATE DEALINGS
Corn Also Hits Air Pocket and
Goes Down in Week
End Session.

by Inc ASSOCldteu FTeSS.
CHICAGO, June 11.--Wheat and
corn bumped against an airpocket in
demand from buyers late today, and
both cereals underwent a sudden
drop. Price downturns were accelerat-
ed by the fact that many standing
orders to sell out and stop losses If
necessary at various fixed limits were
forced into operation. Wheat harvest
ing was reported as having begun in
Kansas with weather conditions ia
vorable.
Wheat closed heavy. 21a to 27s net
lower; corn, "a to IN off; oats, e to
IA down, and provisions unchanged
to a setback Of 10a12.
Cessation of buying in wheat and
corn came during the last hour of
business, and happened to coincide
with somewhat enlarged selling on
the part of houses with Northwestern
and Southern connections. It then
quickly became apparent that for at
least the time being the market was
without any aggressive support. On
the ensuing collapse of prices, the
execution Of stop-loss selling orders
added to the weakness, and the finish
was at the days bottom level.
A display of strength which earlier
had shown itself in the wheat mar
ket was ascribed to black rust news
from Indiana and to a bullish con-
struction placed on the Canadian gov
eminent crop report. Besides. Liver
pool quotations were firmer than had
been looked for. According to au-
thorities here, the Canadian govern
ment figures indicate 100000
bushels wheat yield this season, as
against 1872, 100000 bushels harvested
in 1925. On the other hand, Indiana
black rust appeared to consist only
of some spores on the lower part OF
stalks, and not indicative OF damage.
Favorable weather in the corn
belt was a bearish factor today as
to corn and oats.
Provisions went downward on ac'
count of weakness of hog values ana
.of cereals as well.

NEW YORK. November 21.-There

The largest gain was in Porto

sold up to 105. a gain of -, points

Some of the older industrials like

IN line with the universal searching
out by the investor of issues that will

Going into hiGh-Grade bonds, the
market was Quiettr but StlonG. The

up to last weeks best. Fractional
gains occurred in the STANDARD rail

Canadian Northern IS rose a fun
point. Junior rails were dull and not
greatly changed.
AS the week opened with the level
of German bonds the lowest of the

in the action of this group. 1t showed

figures were below the expectation of
local traders who had been talking

garded as tending to confirm the

Southern selling as we'll as rather

Spring Tonic for Fall Use.

A study OF the iodin content of
foods, manures and animal products
in relation to the prevention of goiter
in New Zealand was recently reported
by c. +. Hercus and X. c. Roberts in
the London Journal of Hygiene. These
investigators found that the amount
of iodn in the soil is accurately re.
f1ected by the amount of iodin IN the
food, vegetable or animal, grown on
the soil. They also found that the
iodin content Of vegetable or animal
food shows a seasonal variation. For
instance, vegetables showed the maxi
mum content of iodin in the late Ar
tumn and Winter when growth is at
a minimum. Eggs contain the most
iodin in the Summer. Milk contains
its maximum amount of iodin in the
Spring.
Cooking had little effect on the iodin
content of SeaWeed root vegetables.
bread and fish, but it reduced by two
thirds the iOdin content of greens.
Hercus and Roberts found that the
iodin content of human milk is lower
In the woman with goiter than in the
normal woman. In America many
physicians now advise the eNpcctant
mother to take internally minute doses
of iodin or an iodn compound
throughout the period of expectancy

dose for the expectant mother to take
once a week IodiZed salt is common
table salt to which a trace of sodium

persons if iodized salt be used ex-
clusively in place of ordinary salt.
1t is likely. though l am not Ger.
tain, that sufficient iodin is furnished
IN cod liver OIL when the eXpectant or
nursing mother takes cod liver oil

The New Zealand investigators
found that fish varies in iodin content
according to the iodin content of the
environment. This agrees with our
conception in America that fresh water
fish is of little value as an iodin food.
but fish or shelltish from the sea con
tain considerable iodin. since fresh
water is likely to be poor IN iodin and
sea water Is Il source of iodin.
TIercuS and Roberts found that the
addition of minute quantity of iodids
potassium or sodium iodid( to the
feed Of animals increased the iodin
content of the animals thyroid glands

the best ways TO provide iOdin ration
for domestic animals is through the
use of iodized salt instead of ordinary
