Today
Farmers Day.
A Coolidge Speech.
The Spirit Voices.
Watch Railroads Merge.
By ARTHUR BRISBANE
y -/
Thursday was a cheerful day for
farmers. Wheat went up for July,
September and December, closing
at $1.32 for December.
In Winnipeg the price was even
higher, although our farmers are
protected by a high tariff. Cana
dians think their crop is half de
stroyed. That "act of God,” plus
the determination of the big re
publicans to help Cootidge by put
ting prices higher, will certainly
put them higher.
Cotton growers yesterday saw
July prices go up $5 a bale. That
rise, unfortunately, was caused by
sad news of the crop. Growers
can always get good prices for
what they haven’t got.
For the Wall street gentlemen,
betting on Davis, a guardian should
be appointed. In all friendliness
to Mr. Davis, it must be said that
the odds against him ought to be
at least 1,000 to 1.
Seibold, who knows politicians,
says Tammany Hfdl is asking:
"How can we vote for Davis
without voting for Governor
Bryan.”
They shake their . heads when
told it can’t Le done.
Seibold doesn't mention the fact
that, out west, many citizens are
asking the other question: "How
can we vote for Governor Bryan
without voting for Davis?” That
also cannot be done.”
Democrats say they will elect
Davis on the “oil issue.” Here is
a speech now being expanded into
a longer speech that will go to all
republican spellbinders:
Concerning oil, republican speak
ers will say:
“John W. Davi*, democratic can
didate, was solicitor general, mildly
and gently, ‘prosecuting’ Standard
Oil, while the prices of Standard
Oil shares rose steadily.”
When he left that job, Mr. Davis
became general attorney for Stand
ard Oil. And while Mr. Davis was
the lawyer of Standard Oil, that
concern “acquired,” with a scienti
fic accuracy that marks great cor
porations, the naval oil wells in
California. Presumably Mr. Davis
did not tell his client, Standard Oil
company, how to do it, but he cer
tainly didn't tell his client not to
do it.
For information as to how great
corporations get the people’s oil
reserve, republican speakers will
refer you to Mr. Davis, yesterday
Standard Oil lawyer, today demo
cratic candidate for president.
That speech will have influence.
Far off, near Spirit Lake, on
Mount St. Helen’s, a party well
armed, is hunting a “tribe of devil
men, or ape men,” that have bom
barded the cabins of miners. In
dians say they know the tribe of
old. They are called Seeantiks,
tut were supposed to be extinct.
According to Indians, they “are
seven or eight feet high, with hairy
bodies like bears. They have a
trick of throwing their voices in
different directions like ventrilo
quists, and practice hypnosis.”
What would Barnum have given
for such a tribe? He had to find
his “wild men” in New England.
But the hairy, giant, bear-like
Seeantiks wfll probably be a dis
appointment. In New Jersey,
.crowds were hunting "a devilish
creature, shaped like a kangaroo,
that jumped over people’s heads.”
It turned out to be a gentle deer,
that jumped over picnickers sitting
■down.
All the old wonders are gone, no
sea serpents, giants with one eye
in the forehead, mermaid Even
the dime museums that contained
them have vanished.
Senator Wheeler, Montana, a
democrat, bolts the Davis ticket,
saying he cannot support a candi
date from Wall street. There have
been many candidates from Wall
street and some have been elected.
But they have not started with
quite such frank advertising.
Watch the railroads gradually
grow into bigger and bigger units.
The Pennsylvania road is said to
be buying the New York, Netf
Haven & Hartford road, sometimes
called “the man from Jerusalem,”
because it also fell among thieves.
Mr. Rea of the Pennsylvania will
put the New Have., road on its
feet if he gets it.
Stock exchange gossip say that
Henry Ford is trying to buy the
St. Paul. That probably is not
true. Ford says:
“There is nothing in railroads.
Automobiles will do the carrying.”

By MARKET BASKET.
Vegetables which have heretofore
been very abundant, are now less
plentiful, according to the various
markets. This is particularly true of
lettuce and tomatoes which arp
scarce. The recent heavy rains and
storms are accountable for this con
dition.
At this time last year, tomatoes
could be purchased for 7 1-2 cents a
pound. Tills year the home-grown
tomatoes are very late in arriving.
Those seen on the market are shipped
—
while green from the south. When
they are received by the Omaha mar
kets, it is necessary to pick them
over, resulting In considerable loss
and high price. At present tomatoes
are selling for 25 cents a nound.
Head lettuce is scarce in compari
son with last year, and the little on
the market sells for 20 cents a head.
Cabbage, however, is abundant.
Stacks of extra large heads of cab
bage are seen in all the markets and
they can be purchased for as low as
50 cents a dozen. Oreen peas are
plentiful, retailing for 35 cents and
29 cents a market basket. Cucumbers
are selling for 40 cents a basket.
Keets still remain at two large
bunches fqr 5 cents, green onions
three bunches for 5 cents. leaf let
tuce 5 cents .a bunch. New potatoes
continue to drop in price and large
ones can now be bought for 33 cents
a peck. First shipments of Arizona
sweet potatoes are now included In
the vegetable squares at 10 cents a
pound. Sweet corn is another late ar
rival but Is expensive as yet. Sum
mer squash is on display for 10 rents,
each.
(aiming Season Hera.
Canning season for plums and
peaches is on hand. Burbank plums
can be purchased for $2.39 a case.
Plums in baskets range in price from
59 cents to 66 cents-n basket. Peaches
are coming in riper and a nice size
basket can he purchased for 20 cents
or if desired for canning purposes,
they can be bought in bushel baskets
for $2.39 each. New pie apples are
three pounds for 25 cents or 75 cents
a basket. Of interest. Is the fact that
extra fancy last year's wtnesap ap
ples can still be procured. Rocky
ford melons, one of the sweetest
cantaloupes on the market grown In
Rockyford, Colo., are attracting many
shoppers at 30 cents each.
Watermelons are coming In In
great abundance and are falling In
price. They are now selling for 39
cents each. Oranges arrive In large
quantities, ranging in price from 1
-il
cent each to 45 cents a dozen for the
.pxtra large and sweet. In berries,
fancy red raspberries and black ber
ries reign. They range in price, ac
cording to quality, from 12 1-2 cents
to 20 cents a box. Cherries are larger
and riper but a slight trend in price
is noticed. Currants are abundant
and can he had by the market basket
for $1.35 each. Strawberries are few
and sell for 20 cents a quart basket.
Pears are sweet though green for 30
cents a basket.
Cold meats continue in popularity
and will probably hold first place
among the eaters for the next month
or two or throughout the hot weather
season. Pork has taken a slight ad
vance In wholesale price, but the
Omaha retail markets have as yet
made no change in their price.
In the fish department Lake
pickerel, which makes an excellent
dish whether boiled, baked, or fried,
is seen for 25 cents a pound. Smoked
white fish at 35 cents a pound is ex
ceptionally good for the cold lunches.
Aunt Sally's pickled beets, delicious
when served with salads, were the
feature attraction at one market this
week. They are all large beets ami
sell for 5 cents each. For the dls
Dlgestible—No Cooking. A Light Lunch

criminating housewife or entertainer,
colled cheese sticks and extra tiny
small French peas known as Petits
Pols Kxtra Fins, can be bought at an
other market.
