This does not mean that you cannot
see the strange formation Of the
shell covering the creature. Through
the clear water you may see how
each shield of the f1attened shell
rises to a point and how this gives
its back the abnormally rough and
hilly appearance. This Is sort of
camouflage, too. as it is an aid to
making the creature less conspicu-
Gus as it lies in the wake of schools
of fish.
The serpentine neck of this turtle
is altogether too long to be tucked
wholly back into the she'll So
part of it is folded sidewise along
the inner margin of the shell. When
something occurs to frighten the
matamata, this long. weird neck is
thus folded by natures plan as
safely from danger as possible.
That is why these turtles and cousins
have been called "side-neckers."

Chicago Grain
BY the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, Sept. 26.-After regis
tering gains of about a cent
bushel or more, wheat and other
grain prices backed down today,
losing most of the advance.
Early buying was attributed to
traders who sold short recently, with
the firmer tone Of securities and
bullish implications of wartime con-
ditions. the loan and lend-lease
programs stimulating support. Mills
and other professors were in the
trade.
Selling on the reaction was at
tributed partly TO tagging demand
from elevator and other interests
because of the scarcity OF storage
space. a circumstance blamed largely
for the discounts at which actual
commodities, except old-crOp soy
beans. are selling below futures
prices. Cash grain men said the
general spot market price level is
at the 'sharpest discount under fu-
lures in several years. Expanded
receipts of wheat at some terminals
also created pressure Of hedging
sales.
Wheat closed 2s-s4 higher than
yesterday, December. 1.2134-7s; May,
126-1261s; Corn, 14-5s up. Decem-
Der, S112; May, 871s; oats, al
higher; rye. Is off to l up; soy
beans, unchanged to 314 higher.
Demand for oats was attributed
to feed and food professors, while
strength of July rye was due to buy
ing of spreaders. Demand for old
october soybean contracts. in which
trading is limited, impaired strength
to other deliveries. which were up
as much as 2 cents at one time.

u. ). Wheat Stocks
At Highest Point
In History
Increase Of 246, ,000, 900
Bushels Over Lost
Year Reported

BY the Associated Press.
The Agriculture Department re-
ported today that a record supply
of 1.344O00,0O0 bushels of wheat
was available in the United States
for the marketing year that began
on July l.
The department said that this
was 246.O0O,000 bushels larger than
the supply year ago and lOO,OO0,OOo
above the previous record high in
1881. Government authorities estl-
mated that the carryover of old
wheat stocks next July l may total
$50 900 900 bushels, or 100000 ,0OO
bushels above the supply of 267,-
100000 bushels on July l.
Despite the record supplies. the
department said wheat prices ad-
vanced sharply during the month
with September 9 prices at the high
est levels since the summer of 1887
The price advances were said to
reflect active buying of cash wheat
and futures.
In a talk at a farm credit con-
ference here today Secretary of
Agriculture Wickard congratulated
Government officials for finding
storage space for the record supplies
of the bread grain. The Secretary
said that wheat was taking the
place of cotton as the chief surplus
problem crop.
Although storage space was found
to keep the new crop "off the
ground Wickard said This can't
go on forever
The departmental review of the
wheat situation noted that the price
for United States spring wheat at
Buffalo. N Y. was from IA to about
18 cents a bushel higher than the
price for Canadian wheat of equal
quality. Import restrictions on wheat
and flour have kept out this lower
price Canadian wheat.
The report said farmers in the
United States received an average
Of SO cents bushel for wheat COM
pared with so cents for Canada
Al cents for Argentina and SO cents
for Australia. Prices in this country
are supported by government loan
while farmers in the other three
wheat producing nations received
guaranteed minimum prices.
The department said there had
been little change in world wide
wheat production for the year.
