tttt xr- i ? mm .Ilia in Ml.' GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET I There is Possibility of Unfavorable Developments in Spring Wheat PROSPECTS ARE FIRE FOR CORN Xo ierloae Damage Reports Hare Beea Received, bat Weather Is lafavorable la Some Seetloas. OMAHA, July 15. 1112. ' Cables were very Irregular this morn-tng-Vi higher to i lower. Weather gen erally continues comparatively cool in the northwest, with not much precipita tion over Sunday. Scattered showers are general In the southwest and It Is ex tremely hot. There is a possibility of un favorable developments In the spring wheat country that will give bulls an excuse for supporting prices until spring wheat is out of danger an J a nervous market is to be expected. The latest re ports bear out estimates of extremely light yields of red winter wheat The small receipts so far also keep the selling in check. Mr. Snow, an expert, predicts a record crop for three states, Minnesota, North and South Dakota. He says these states have a chance to raise over 250,000. 000 bushels of wheat. One or two spots are burned out, but the ground Is ta-atly very good. Chances of rust la very small. Cash wheat was lfcl'ic lower. The weather was very hot in tne south west over Sunday and this may cause some buying support in the far off de liveries which have been lagging behind, namely July and September,-on account of the generally fine crop prospects. No serious damage reports have ooeu re ceived as yet, but the weather Is un favorable in sections. The cash n.arket still continues strong to Hlc tower. The oats harvest promises to be so large that without any accident there will be selling pressure in September and the late months. Cash lHc tower.

CHICAGO, July 15.-Record breaking crops that experts today declared to be fairly In sight smanhed the price of wheat The market closed demoralised, 30Qc to 4044c a bushel lower than forty-eight hours before. " Corn finished at a decline of c in 1W 14o down, oats lo to 14o down and pro visions from Me down to an advance of 24c. One of the best known authorities in the wheat trade announced that the conditions In North and South Dakota and Minnesota pointed to a yield of 2ti0, 000,000 bu., a total fur above any ever previously reached for the three states named. There -was evidence that Kan sas would have to be credited with 90, 000,000 to I00,v00,ii00 bu., an amount much In excess of the estimate. Holders of wheat showed discouragement from the start. -Canadian grain men put the final stroke to the breaking prices In wheat. Winni peg sent word that the three northwest provinces could be counted upon for 350, VOO.000 bu. and showed faith by lowering quotations In a hurry. The September delivery In Chicago, which during the day had ranged between 96c and 1.00, an almost continuous decline, stood' at WV when the gung closed the pit, leav ing the loss for the day 4044o net. "The fact that current arrivals of corn are light averted pressure from that cereal, despite the excellence of the crop outlook. September fluctuated from 680 to K'c and closed easy, 1H014O down at fc80jft4c. Low grades were in poor de mand.

NEW YORK HOB MARKET Steady and Consistent Strength Manifested in Trading. RESULT OF BANK STATEMENT Prices Move la Lelsnrely Fashloa Throasheat Session, hat Galas Are General la Specula tive Isaacs. NEW YORK, July 15.-Steady and con sistent strength was manifested by the stock market today, the result primarily of last Saturday's strong bank state ment which rectified the adverse con ditions of the preceding week when a deficit in the actual reserves was re ported. Prices moved in leisurely fashion throughout the session, but gains were general, particularly in stocks ot specu lative importance. St. Paul, which was the weakest feat ure of the market in the closing days of last week, recovered more than two points from Its low level of that period, despite increasing belief that the ap proaching semi-annual dividend may suf fer further reduction. Union Pacific, Norfolk St. Western and other dividend payers reflected moderate absorption, with a fair demand for some ofv the specialties, comprising the electrical and equipment groups. There were - virtually no transactions in the securities of the several express companies whose earnings are likely to be somewhat impaired by reason of the new rate system ordered by the Inter state Commerce commission. Best prices were recorded in the final dealings, when American Tobacco scored a sharp advance. Another benetlcial effect of the bank statement was the greater ease of money, which showed a relaxing tend ency In call loans although demand was somewhat In excess of rocent days. Western money markets were firmer, however, a condition arising directly from business revival and increased trade activity. Traffic managers in that section report & larger freight movement than a year ago. Bonds were steady, but dull. Total sales, par value, 2,530,000. United States government bonds were unchanged.

With-, more cattle from which to make selections buyers were Incluined to take a little more time In filling their orders, ao that the market lacked the activity so noticeable on most days last week. There also seemed to be an Inclination on the part of buyers to discriminate a lit tle more closely as regards quality, and where, possible to take off a little from last week's excessively high prices. Thus it happened that killing cattle, both cows and steers, sold anywhere from steady to quite a little lower. Stockers and feeders, on the other hanl, were active sellers, and the market on desirable cattle of that description was at least strong to 10c higher than last week. .

HOOS-It .will be remembered ' that Saturday's market for hogs opened higher and closed way lower, making the market for the day very uneven and anywhere from higher to Wig 15c lowr. That being the case it will be readily understood that it is- not an easy matter vodiy to make a comparison In hog prlcos vith last week's close. In a general war It may be said that today's market was not quite so good 'as the ext'.xmw- high point Saturday morning, but on the other hand was better than the very mean close Saturday. While the trade was not particularly active there was a good demand for desirable light and butcher hogs and good even If rather -weighty hogs sold fairly well. Rough bogs on the other hand and trashy light hogs were slow sellers and at bottom prices. In fact, in some cases holders of rough and undesirable heavy hogs thought that kind was not better than Saturday's close for tht reason that buyers are not look ing for that kind of hogs and they aro hard to move any day. v A glance at the sales below1' will snow that good light hogs sold up as high as 37.35, or 2 lower than the best price paid on Saturday. Other light weights sold on down the scale, the common stuff gong under $7.00, the same as at tne close or last ween, tne quamy 01 me light weights did not averagG as good as ast week, which helped to onng aown prices as quality and not. weight deter- mines the price. Heavy nogs were very scarce.- especially Rood heavies. The liullc of all the hogs sold at 37.10&7.20. Representative sales: No. 14... 14... ... M... J...

About thirty-four loads were reported at the yards, consisting entirely of west erns from Idaho, Wyomiuc and Oregon. The shipments included fourteen cars of lambs, seven ot yearlings, nine of wetl: ers, three of ewes and four mixed loads. Fat sheep showed much better quality than the lambs, there being veiy little real good stuff included In the. lamb re ceipts. On the whole quality of today's supply could only - be called fair when compared with the arrivals here durins the forepart of last week. With a liberal supply here and at Chi cago and other points, the market opened slow and 1525c lower on fat sheep. Although there was a fair demand for desirable killers packers were unwilling to pay steady figures, claiming prlcet here too high when compared with the market at Chicago. Buyers apparently were not as anxious for the lambs as for the sheep and a good part of the morn ing had gone before any trade In these took place. Among the early sales was two loads of Idaho ewes at $4.00 and a two-car shipment of Idaho yearlings and wethers that sold for $5.00. . In - the end .pretty much everything changed hands, the barn being pretty well cleared by midday. The general market however, could not be quoted as anything better than 1525c lower than last week; lambs and yearlings being the slowest sellers and showing the most decline.

Fields cultivated at the county rarm were subjected to ill of the conditions that prevailed ltjst year and different results were due wholl to ho different methods of cultivation. Full scientific culture, including tested and highest! grade seed, gave crops from one to two and one-half times greater than the yield from the methods followed a few years aco. In the scientifically cultivated fields the moisture was well conserved) and full crop yields resulted. . , The report shows the great difference j In seed, used and gives some surprising j results. -Samples of thecorn that wasj being used by sixty-six" Potta watamlei county farmers were planted side by sldo on the experimental plots. It was shown, j according to the report, "that if every: farmer ' in Pottawatamle county hadj planted - corn as good as that used by j five of these slxty-slx farmers, approxl-i mately $535,000 would have been added' to the value of the corn crop of thai county for 1911.'' ."..-.. The report declares that one great; cause' for the low yields was traced dl-' rectly to the bad seed used, and that: the actual value of every ear of good seed corn used was $2. Home Grows Seed Best. Another : deduction as the result of -these experiments Is that it ' does not pay to import seed corn. The report says: 'The average yield from samples shipped in from state corn show winners in different states was seven and one half bushels less per acre than the averv age of the five best samples,' of borne-, grown seed. The average yield from eleven samples from seed companies wa9 seven bushels less than the average front the best five samples of home-grown: seed' In addition to the tests made at the experimental farm concurrent expert-, mcnts were conducted with the seed fur.; nlshed by the farmers on their own farms, and these,, grown under their! own climatic and soil conditions, makes the result of especial value to the farm-': ers of the county.. " ,. Oftly a few copies of this report hava been sent to County Auditor Hannan, and an effort is to be made to secure a. sufficient number for general distri bution among the farmers of the county.
