MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY Omaha Grain Omaha, March 14, 1923. Omaha receipts today totaled 108 cars, as compared with 87 cars last year. Total shipments were 143 cars against 115 cars a year ago. Demand for cash wheat on the Oma ha market was fairly good, with prices firm and a shade higher. Corn was in good demand, 1-2 to 3-4o higher. Oats were unchanged to 3-4c higher, being generally l-2c higher. Rye was quoted 1c lower and barley nominal ly unchanged. s Prices of grain In the Chicago fu-' tures market displayed a very good undertone in the early session to day. Liverpool wheat cables did not respond to our weakness of yester day and Instead of being lower were higher. Some export business was re ported marked consisting mainly of Manitobas, hut including some dur ums and the western part of the wheat belt is said to be still without moisture of consequence. Dullness ruled during most of the day, the trade being mostly local, the county being still cut off on account of lim ited wire service. WHEAT. Xo. t dark bard- 1 car, $1.17. Xo.

Chicago, March 14.— Wheat emerged from a dull session today with mod- j erate gains. At tho outset the drift- j looked lower, but the firmness at j Liverpool and the uncovering of the j be*t export business in weeks in the I east injected a firm undertone which persisted to the last. Wheat closed 1-8 to 3 8c advanced; corn wa sunehanged to l-8c higher; oats were steady to l-8c up; rye ruled 1-Sc higher and barley closed un changed. Favorable news on crop conditions over thfe winter wheat belt was fol-1 lowed by pressure from southwestern ' houses during the first hour, but the j market again repeated its well known ; characteristic of recovering from all depressions, t 'oarse grains moved [ along with tlie leading cereal.' ( urn Market Firm. Corn arte*! firm throughout, although; final jtrl'fs showed Jittl« change. There was fairly good buying by commission houses and local bulls during tho early trade, but profit taking and a let-up .n t lie buying power witnessed a reaction at tho bell. Oats furnished little excitement, but held firm with the rest. Northwest -houses were buying May and soiling July rye In tho way of shift ing hedge* Local whorls covered on the dips Provisions were Irregular but firm, j Lard closed 6$j 7‘jc higher and ribs were unchanged to 5c lower. Pit Note*. Nebraska farmers are said to be pre paring to set*I spring wheat lu many i fields where the winter grade is consid ered in too low condition to hist until harvest time. Th * general run of crop rows gives th** impression that the bulls will I.Hvf a difficult time in forcing a scare this year. The presence of chinch bugs an 1 green bugs h.is been noted in Texas ;ind Oklahoma, but little damage so far has b*;« o reported. News from nbtoad has been acting ns a stimulant in tho domestic grain mart of late l. \ erpool advised that its advance of *« i 'ad was due to the improved con tinental demand for which stocks of wheat throughout Kurope are law natu rally, for purchased supplies there have been going into Immediate consumption. According to a foreign statTatlclan, Kus *i;t ha* sown about 70.000,060 acres in cereals this year, compared with the re vised estimate of 56.000,000 acres last year. Acreage sown to wheat in Italy tills season is on a par with last year. The world's available wheat aupnlv showed a decrease of 2,.':0fi,000 bushels for the week, and now totals 202.S53.000 bushels, compared with 176,264,000 bushels Ihst year. Crop news has been coming in _ more j cheerfully for the bears Th*' Kansas state report advised that th worst j drouth in the history of the state was broken the past week by the generous rainfall over the greater part of the belt.

FEDERAL BANK GUARD TELLS ABOUT TROUBLE Attack of Flu Left Him So Weak and Shaky He Could Hardly Stand Up, Declares Hightower. Gains 15 Pounds Taking Tanl ac and Feels Fine Now. It i* doubtful if a more widely popular and highly esteemed officer i an be found In all Missouri than Elmer Hightower, who resides at i-'TOl Trooat Ave , Kansas City, and whose position at the Federal Re serve Rank makes unnecessary any - comment as to bis character, in tegrity or trustworthiness. "When such a man. in terms of hearty en thusiasm, pays public tribute to a (medicine, it goes without saying that the preparation has outstand ing merit. It was only a few days •go that Mr. Hightower spoke as fol | lows of Tanlae: > "I just had to handshake my way ! through the crowd of friends the other day and bow my acknowledg ment* to their congratulations. " Elmer, you're looking the best j you have in years! Tell us the se cret—maybe we can get on the right ! track ourselves,' was the gist of their ! pleasantries. "Well. I got a heap of satosfac jtlon In telling them I had taken Tan I lie, the world's best health tonic. I That was my ‘secret.' "About six via-eks iiefore starting ! on Tanlae, a bad attack of the Flu j put me flit -on my back and left me i so weak, nervous and shaky I could I hardly dress myself. Why, I couldn't j stand steady. T just ached all over land was so dizzy my head was In a whirl. I could scarrely eat anything. ( suffered torture from indigestion, and the only sleep I got was to doze off I occasionally. "Then, my mother in U»*'tt. Mo., w ho is eighty six years old, wrote ELMER HIGHTOWER me how Tanlac w as helping her, so I started faking it. Well, after the Klu had manhandled and nearly wrecked me, Tanlac got right to the root of ray troubles and when I finished the treatment, all my ailments had been ousted and I had gained fifteen pounds. My dolla-s go pretty fast now satisfying this big appetite X have, and sleep—why, 1 could sleep ten or eleven hours every night! Nowadays. I go about my duties at the bank happy and cheerful for 1 m in the finest sort of trim." Tanlac is for sale by all good druggists.

When you tell the operator she says, ‘‘I will ring them again.” Finally when you get your party, do you feel that the opera tor has not given you prompt service, or do you realize that the person you called may not have answered his telephone at once ? It will help greatly to provide prompt service for nil, if every subscnl>er will answer the telephone as soon as the hell rings. May we count on you ? Northwestern Bell Telephone Company
