formal debut and Wednesday widely
scattered sections Of the country and
Canada reported nantes Of fleecy

It was the heaviest October fall in
Al years. Other places in the state
reported varying degrees Of snow
with Bemidji and Gonvick in the
northern part covered with six and
seven inches. At St. Paul and Min.
neapolis there was just a trace of
the Duluth storm.
In the far east at Saranac Lake,
N. Y, the mountain sides were COW
cred with a two-inch layer after a
six-hour fall. The storm spread out
over wide area as far as Utica and
Gloversville, and in the northern
Adirondacks falling temperature to
just below freezing kept the snow
from melting.
Two residents Of Pittsfield, Mass,
enjoyed the roses in their gardens
while snow fell in the Berkshires
Tuesday, and in other sections Of the
state violets and strawberry bios
SONS were reported.
The storm spread into Canada,
most parts of Ontario being caught

In Chicago lower temperatures
were accompanied by high winds and

VIGOROUS ADVANCE
N,PRICE OF wheat
SCORED AT CHICAGO
Main Factor u Rise in Gold
Prices Due to New Action
by Government

Chicago, Oct. 6.-B-v Vigorous
advances In wheat values swept the
market for that cereal more than 1
cents higher Wednesday, with the
greatest gains scored in the late
dealings.
Big margins demanded for specu-
lative transactions, however, tended
to keep the general public from par
ticipating as largely in grain trad
ing as the steep upturns Of prices
would ordinarily indicate. The main
factor was apparently a rise Of prices
for gold as shown In Wednesdays
initial transactions under latest plans
established by President Roosevelt.
Wheat closed unsettled, 2M-3h
cents above Tuesdays finish. Dec.
877s-88, May 0l-91A: corn 2-2N up,
Dec. 47%-&, May $685.: oats IN
2,s advanced, and provisions un-
changed to rise Of As cents.
Buying which came chiefly from
eastern sources and which met with
but slight resistance from sellers
hoisted wheat q maximum of 3M
cents before any important price re-
action took place. The upturn car
ried the wheat market to more than
20 cents above last weeks low level,
the bottom-mo6t point reached this
season.
Wheat and corn values moved up
ward as practically unit. corn soon
gaining an extreme Of 81 cents q
bushel.
Provisions paralleled the action of
grains.
About mid-session, wheat was 81
3h above Tuesdays finish, and corn
was 2h-2h up.
