GRAIN FUTURES
HOLD STEADY
IN DULL TRADE
FirmneSS of Foreign Prices
Over Weekend a
Factor.

CHICAGO, Feb. "A. - Wheat
opened steady on the Board of
Trade in a light trade today. The
steadineSs in foreign markets over
the holiday and the firmness today,
although Liverpool March was weak
owing to the arrival of Argentine
cargoes of undesirable wheat, en-
couraged some buying.
Pressure was light at the start.
Corn was easy and major frac-
ton down on the continued good
weather and expectations of larger
arrivals. Oats were weak with
corn, the nearby month getting pres
sure.
At the opening wheat was I'M
changed to Is cent lower, corn was
Is to Is cent lower and oats were
Is to q cent off. Provisions were
slow and steady.
Price changes at Winnipeg and
Liverpool over the holiday are not
of much Importance. Liverpool was
lower than expected today, March
being under pressure and LIS cent
lower at afternoon though the
other deliveries were off Is to II
cent. BuenoS Aires opened Il to II
cent higher.
Argentina and Canada are re-
ported to have lowered their offer
ing prices. The southwest received
enough moisture over the weekend
to relieve apprehension, but east of
the Missouri river there was very
little precipitation. Much colder
weather is predicted for the north
west.
The cash situation in corn gives
little indication of improvement.
Other terminals continue to ship
here although the farmers offer
little direct. Weather remains mod
crate over the belt with vegetation
three weeks to a month ahead OF
normal.
March oats has been coming
under pressure as the first delivery
day approaches, but the other
months are steady. There is no spe-
cial news in the pit.

Following is the explanation of
Ripley's Believe 1t or Not" which
appeared in Mondays Times:
Washington Was Taller Than
notwithstanding to General
Hugh Mercer, who was Washing
tons physician, the Father of Our
Country was "aS straight as an
Indian, measuring 6 feet 2 inches
in his stockings, and weighing ITS
pounds, when he took his place in
the Virginia house of BurgesSes
in 1859"
On the other hand, we know
that Lincoln always evinced GER
tain pride in his great height, ex-
aggerating it by affecting tall hats
and high-heeled boots. He was
in the habit of measuring himself
with every tall man he met.
To this vanity we are indebted
for most reliable clue as to his
real height. He was outmeasured
by the huge Governor Morgan of
New York, and repeated this ex-
perience with an unnamed petit
toner who called on the President
at the White House.
Governor Morgans height is on
record as feet inches in his
stockings, and as to the tall
stranger, "he left the White House
quite abashed that he dared to be
taller than the President, while
measuring feet 21a inches in
tall boots
See: General Carrington's
Washington the Soldier"
Washington's Birthday Comes
Earlier in the Year Than Lin
Washington was born Feb.
IL, 1871. At the time of his birth,
the old style calendar was in eff
feet in England and its colonies,
and the New Year then began on
March %.
The calendar reform reduced
September, 1852, by twelve days,
and at the same time the COM
mencement of New Year was
advanced to Jan. /.
The Stone That Is God-The
White Stone I depicted is wor-
shipped as a god possessing great
healing powers. It's temple, to
which pilgrimages are made for
the purpose of invoking it's divine
curative powers, is situated on the
YangtSe river near Suifu, in the
province of Szechuan, China. Mil
lions of people believe that this
stone is a god.
