After Midday Setback;
Closes Strong

New York, Oct. 30-(P)-The stock
market got a fresh foothold after a

vigorously Friday, closing with num-
erous gains of 2 to 6 points. The
closing tone was strong. Trading
was active in the last half hour, but
the days turnover was only about

ing news in weeks, providing tangible
evidence of a return Of confidence III
banks A better demand for bank in
vestments was apparent in the bond
market.
The stock market pushed up about
! to 1 points durinb the morning. but
its advance was virtually cancelled af-
ter midday. Pivoal shares generally
sstiffened around last nights final
levels, however. Electric Power anj
light turned weak, losing points.
Heaviness Of this issue appeared to
discourage buying. Some other util-
tiles became heavy, North American
and National Power and Light losing
about a point. Union Pacific sold up
4 points, then lost its rise. Gains Of
/ to 2 points In such issues as U. s.

500 ATTEND annual
CORN show BANQUET
THURSDAY EVENING
Governor Is Toasimaster; WAL
ster, M'kee, and Gilfillan
Give Talks

Three hundred persons, including
IS active corn growers, attended the
annual exhibitors dinner. one of the
highlights of the North Dakota state
corn show, in the World War Me-
mortal building here Thursday eve-
ming.
Presiding over the banquet was
Governor George r. Shafer. who took
the place of George F.. Will, Bis
marck, general chairman Of the corn
show.
Speakers on the program we're DR..
H. L. Walster, dean of the college Of
agriculture at the North Dakota Ag-
ricultural college; Clyde Mckee,
agronomist of the Montana state uni
versity agricultural experiment sta
ton at Bozeman; and Archer B. Gill
fillan, Buffalo, s. D.. humorist. WAL
ster and Mckee are judges of the
corn exhibits.
Walster quoted from records of the
U. S. census and the U. s. department
Of agriculture In support of his claims
that corn Is one Of the most profit
able crops which the North Dakota
farmer can plant.
Good Poor Year Crop
He proved that corn develops bet
ter in the normal year than the
states leading grain crops and de-
clared that poor crop year such as
1881 hurts corn but little while 1t cut
the small grain crops numerically.
He urged North Dakota farmers to
increase corn acreage from the five
or six per cent of crop land on which
corn has been planted In past years
in this state.
Mckee stressed the importance of
corn In the agriculture of North Da-
kota.
"The hundreds of exhibits at this
years state corn show are mute cv-
dence Of the great progress made in
the development of corn in North
Dakota through the cooperation OF
farmers, seed houses, and the state
agricultural college experiment sta
tion," he added.
He said that Montana owes some
thing to North Dakota since the
westerners received much Of their
first seed corn from this state and
added that Montana farmers have
been quick to realize that corn Is q
valuable crop.
Describes Herder's Position
The trials and tribulations of q
sheep herder were described by Gil
fillan.
The sheep herder has only one con-
ISOLATION left. Gilfillan said, "thc Sc
cure knowledge that he is working on
rock bottom; that no matter what
he does. he never can get any lower;
and that any time he makes change
in his occupation. he will automatic
ally rise in the social scale"
while the oyerlords Of the corn
belt are gathered here for a feast" I"
he said, 1T Is altogether fitting that
they should have the lowest form OF
animal life known to science, that Is
sheep herder, here with them. just
In order to add to the general con-
tentment cannot imagine any other
reason 70 rasking a sheep herder to
address an audience like this"
Advantages Over Pastors
The sheep herder, lowly as he is,
has distant relatives in the higher
ranks of life, including the pastors,
the South Dakotan said. "And the
herder has distinct advantages over
the pastor" he said. He can tell his
black sheep at q glance" doesn't "lie
awake nights wondering how he can
turn his black sheep white" and the
herder's black sheep are mostly
ewes Finally. he said. "the black
