Indications from the Department
of Agriculture are that feeder lambs
will be high in price this fall, due
to their scarity. The better the
corn crop the higher the price will
be.
Slaughter lambs are moving to
market earlier than last year, but
the total number slaughtered this
year will probably be less than
last. There has been a slight de-
crease in production in the north
western area. Lambs in this sect
ion have moved to market earleir
and have heavier weights than aver
age. The situation is generally
favorable.
In the case of wool, the market
has strengthened considerably in
the last month. Larger sales have
been made in faster fashion than
has been experienced any time the
last year in the wool trade. The
London wool sales reports indicate
about a five per cent advance over
a moth ago.

preictded recently that legislation
similar to the McNary- -Haugen
Farm Relief bill of the last Con-
gress, will be presented during the
next session of Congress and ex-
pressed the opinion that proponents
of the bill would have enough votes
to pass it over the Presidential vote
if one should be forthcoming.
The Public Health Service re-
ports that due to economic condi-
tions and causes related to the re-
cent floods in the lower Mississippi
Valley, there has been an increase
of pellagra in that area from 1920
reported deaths and 10000 reported
cases in 1920 to an estimated total
of 2300-2500 deaths and 45,000-5O,-
600 cases in 1927. The recommend
atiOns made in the report are:
1. Immediate action to supply To-
cal relief agencies in the flood area
with foods which contain pellagra
preventive vitamins.
2. Encouragement of diversified
farming in the four States mention
ed, for the purpose of stabilizing the
economic condition of the tenant
farmer and enabling him to supply
himself in the future with proper
food
3. Establishment of community or
plantation Aries and plantation
truck patches to make a more bal
anced diet.
4. encouragement of cattle, swine
and poultry production in the area
mentioned.
The small grain crops of the
world in 1926-1927 have now been
harvested or have nearly matured,
except in some of the later areas.
The reports of the Division of
Foreign Crops and Markets show
that for the southern hemisphere,
the wheat havest was unusually
large, being about 20 per cnt above
that of the preceding year and
about so per cent greater than a
average. The northern
hemisphere shows about 1 per cent
above last year and per cent above
the average for the preceding three
years.

MANY SHOCKED AS

Quite Usual for Women to Dis play Their Limbs Nowadays"
 Lord Chief Justice Remarks

London, Nov. 1 P1A staid Brit ish court gave spectators the shock of their lives today when it per- mitted a woman's knee to be shown to a jury.
 A woman plaintiff in a suit for damages was asked by her counsel to exhibit her knee. The crowd, ap- parently expecting Lord Hewart, the lord chief justice, who was presiding, to forbid the display, watched him with concern.
 The judge. however, surprised the crowd by remarking Tt is quite us- ual for women to show their limbs nowadays"
 There upon the plaintiff, Miss Marjorie Rosebeck, lifted 1~r skirt just a trife and showed her right knee to the jurors.
 Miss Beck was suing for damages from a surgeon on the ground that her knee had been severely burned by hot water bottle while she was under an anaesthetic.

TRAIL OF VIOLENCE
 FOLLOWS YOUNG GIRL
Fall River Miss Again Featured in Attempt to Kill
 an Admirer.

Fall River, Mass, Nov. 1 (R - A trail of violence which for three years has followed Thelma Berard came to light today as the police investigated the shooting of Dalpha J. Pelletier of this city while he was calling on the girl last Sunday night at her home in Swansea, just outside Fall River.
 Pelletier was still in a serious condition at a hospital here today.
 The police said that three years ago. when the girl was in high school, a boy who had been paving attentions to her received several threatening letters warning him to keep away from her. Then came an explosion in the boys home in which he escaped injury. It was found that other boys had stolen dynamite from a construction job nearby.
 In the summer of 1926 there was another explosion, this time at the girls home. A crude bomb had been placed in the doorway of her bed room. She sustained slight cuts and bruises. No clue was found. Pelle- tier, who had been friendly with the girl before the second explo- sion. also had received anonymous letters. These have kept coming since then.
 While he was sitting with her on a couch in the kitchen on Sunday night some one outside the house fired a shot gun through the win dow. Pelletier was wounded in the back. The Berard girl and her mother, who also was in the room, escaped injury.
 The police have questioned two suspects, one Of whom was said to have been seen in an automobile near the Berard home shortly be- fore the shooting. Both satisfied the authorities that they were else where when the shot was fired.

while the suggestion for a downward revision of surtaxes rates on in- comes between s16,000 and s90,00O evoked much discussion in which party lines crept to the surface.
 But little, however, was heard re- garding the other two treasury rec concentrations: one proposing that corporations with incomes less than $2o,000 and without more than 10 directors, be permitted to file re- turns as partnerships or corpora tions at their option; and that in- come derived from American bank CTS acceptances held by foreign cen- tral banks of issue, be exempted from taxation.
