MARKET, FINANCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL NEWS OF THE DAY j Omaha Grain Omaha. Feb. 23. Total receipts at Omaha were only •o car* as compared with 322 cars Jast year. Total shipments were 103 fcars against 151 cars a year ago. There was a fair demand for cash Reheat on the Omaha market, with prices unchanged to 1 cent up, being generally 1 cent higher. Corn was in good demand unchanged to 1-2 cent higher, J)eing generally 1-2 cent higher. Oats were steady generally unchanged. Rye was quoted un changed and barley nominally un changed. A weak Liverpool cable and in creased estimates of the Argentine ex portable surplus of wheat caused a bearish feeling and local traders were the sellers in the early session of the Chicago futures tnarket. The principal weakness being in wheat, corn and oats presenting a steady undertone. Export business in wheat W'as said to be almost nothing, but that good quantities of corn had been worked. The buying on the set-, backs was of the same character as yesterday and was hard to trace. To wards the close bears became discour aged as prices did not yield and when they started to cover found little for sale.

A nVERTJRF.M E-VT SULPHUR IS BEST TB CLEAR UP UGLY; BROKEN OUT SKIN Any breaking out or skin irritation on face, neck i or body is overcome quickest by applying Mentho Sulphur, says a noted skin specialist. Because of its germ destroying properties, nothing has ever been found to take the pluce of this sulphur prepara tion that instantly brings ense from the Itching, hurtling nnd Irritation. Mentho-Kulphur heals ecrema right up, leaving the skin clesr nnd "inoeth. It seldom falls to relieve the 'orment or disfigurement.

It is used like cold cream, | Chicago Grain Chicago, Feb. 20.—Grain markets received excellent support when they needed it most today, and while there was heavy selling of May wheat by houses with eastern connections early, the offerings were readily absorbed around $1.19 on resting orders, the same as has been the case for several days, and the finish was '4c lower for the day, with the deferred futures un changed to lc lower. Corn was »8c higher to *«c lower, oats lie lower and rye off *4c. Wheat was apparently little afreet ad by news developments at the present time and a drop of 78d In Liverpool i was without effect, the decline there bskng offset by advance in sterling to a new high since 1919. Fluctuations were largely the result of commission house and local operations and, while sentiment was bearish, shorts found little for sale when they tried to cover. Export (i.mtiid from Europe eltowed no Improvement and sale* of cash wheat were email, a* they have been for lome time past, Forecast waa for partly cloudy weather 6ver the entire grain belt. Prem iums on red winter here advanced lc with a moderate milling demand. Corn Offering* Fight. May corn wa* wanted by commission houses around 75c on reeling orders and while local traders sold early, when wheat broke, they covered later and found of ferings light, and the May after selling at lc under the July, finished only under. Haeis on spot was easy to *4 c lower, with little shipping business under way here, and the scaboAd reported a l»«ts active export demaol. Focal re ceipt* were 375 cars. Trading in oata was amalier than of late and prices held within narrow limits, with prices closely reflecting the fluctuation* in other grains. Commission houses generally Inclined to the bull side, and support v as in evidence on the breaks. Shipping demand slow, with re ceipt* 64 cars. Rye showed an easy undertone in sym pathy with wheat. There is a lack of speculative Interest and traders generally look for rye to follow wheat closely. Kx port demand alow. The two northwest ern markets had 12 cars PU No tea. Action of the wheat market the past few days suggests to many traders that there is steady accumulation of May go ing on around $1.19, apparently for the same Interests who have been active on the selling aid© on the advances to above $1.20. For several days it has been hard to trace the buying, while the selling has been conspicuous For the time being there is a disposition to go alow on the selling side In some quarters pending de velopment in the market, while in other purchases on the recessions, especially of the July and the September are being ad vocated. A scarcity of cai* for the move ment of grains to terminal market* Is developing, and unless there \s a change in the situation which will permit west ern cars coming back from eastern roads no material relief is to be expected. Kastern Toads generally are in bod shape on account of the congestion at the sea board incident to the severe storms dur ing the past six weeks, and grain In east ern cars sold at a small premium in some case* a* compared with what it would have brought in western equipment. Sentiment in corn and oats 1* becoming somewhat more bullish. The rapidity with which the offerings have been absorbed of late. *nd the prospect of a better for eign demand are factor* in tho situation attracting much attention, and in some quarters the belief prevails that «-orn ia now in a position to take care of itseif. with indications of working to a higher level unless there are untoward develop- , merit*. A very bearish view of the world’* | wheat and corn situation i* taken by ! Arthur W. (Nitton. He bases hi* view* i on the *tati*tlcsl and financial showing and estimate* that unless condition* change materially there will be a world’* carryover of 225,000.000 to 250.000.eoo bushels wheat This 1* e4>ial to the aver- I age prewar carryover when Russia wa* contributing to the world's supply.

This irregularity was vis ible both in the industrial and the rail way shares; it indicated strong under lying tendencies, hut a disposition of professional speculators to take profits quickly and frequently. The uncertain movement which has prevailed on the bond market since the first weeks of the year, continued. This is somewhat in line with the movement of a year ago: it will be remembered that the early bond mar ket of 1922 was regarded by Wall street as both a perplexitiy and a dis appointment. and that it dtd not dis play its real underlying tendencies until the middle of March. Kxchange Advances. If tlis foreign exchange market were to be taken as an indication of stjrh tilings, tho proapect today muat have been more cheerful. All of the principal ex changes, except the Herman mark, ad* vanced again. Probably moat of them moved in sympathy with sterling, which rose 18*0 further today to $4.71 a, . repre senting an advance of Saie since the end of last month an-1 of 8c since l>etember. The rate has only to rise 4c further to reach tlie highest figure of 1J19. 1818 or 1817. The day's advance in frati-s and lire was not great; the mark declined from .0018c to .0040c. It is still twice as high as its lowest January figure, but has lost nearly one-tlilrd of last v.eok'a heat price. Cotton Advances. *??omething of a landmark In the field or commodity price* was provided today j l»y the advance of spot cotton to 29c a I pound, the highest since September 23. ! 1920, when that price was passed <>a the | rapid downward sweep from 43 \e in (July to 144c in 'December. Th* highest | price of 1322 was 2*.90c. The must inter eating fact in connection with thi.- ad vance—the spot market stood at 164c barely a year ago—-haa b*en the absence of any real slackening in purchases by manufat turer.s and consumers. ft is true that our export of cotton last month de ! creased 2 474 bales from th« previous :• ear. Hut this was no great decline, the decrease occurred entirely in business with Germany and Japan, shipments to England and other continental states In creasing considerably, and meantime our own mills bought 15 per cent more than in January. 1922. and more than In any other month on record except one in 1016 and one in 1917. Financial Topics. Trading on the stock exchange to day Just passed the million share mark, making the 19th consecutive million share clay witnessed thus far this year. Approximately half the business was tran sacted during the first two hours of . trading, and as a result of this the mar ket gave appearance of Inactivity during ! the afternoon. The movement of prices, while In the mam again tip ward, did not display the x.gns of buoyancy which ware so noticeable in the markets of last week. Figures were presented today showing the extent to which the Interstate Com merce commission’s rat4 reduc tion in 2,590 - 000 mileage tickets will affect the ! revenue figure* of American railways. For the country at large, estimates show ed. the enforcement of »hi* order would mean the loss of I40.000.000. The new rat*, which is of particular benefit to commercial traveler? will not go into effect bef< re next month, and 1t Is e» peeled that she American r.allwa- as sociation will interpose objections before Jhat date.
