CHICAOO CHAIN AMD PROVISION
Srwatwrw of tn Traalag aa Cicala
rVtcea oa Board ( Trade).
CHICAOO. Aug. 12. High condition and
Urge- acreage of wheat almost ready to
harvest in Canada pulled prlcea down to
day several pega. Closing figures were
3tto to VtfeHa under laat night. Corn fin
lahed Q to toe down and oata unchanged
te hia off. Provision made a net gain of
UHo to 86c.
Tha Canadian government's estimate on
the wheat crop proved an unpleaaant sur
prise to the bulls. According to the offi
cial view, spring wheat In the Dominion
as a whole warrants an average as high
as SO per cent and for the northwest
province so to rs. Moreover, tne aumoruies
were counting upon a yield this year
greater than laat by an Increase of 1.600.000
acres. It waa stated In addition that every
day of escape from damage meant Just so
much mora wheat to safety. The American
northwest, too, sent news generally depress
ing as to prices and optimistic aa to crops.
Another source of selling pressure waa te
fact that adverse reporta from Russia re
garding tha smallness of the expected ship
ping surplus had been duplicated last year,
but turned out altogether misleading. Al
though a couple of temporary rallies took
place during tha day's session, a heavy ton
prevailed tha greater part of tha time,
especially at tha opening and near the
do, and was emphasised throughout by
the slowness of export demand. Outside
limit touched by the September option
were MHgr3 and 93c. with last aalea
net lower at M9le.
Corn eased off owing to rains over Illi
nois, Iowa and Nebraska. The market was
also affeoted beartshly by the downward
tendency of wheat. September ranged
from Vi to closing weak c down at
8tVs"flfAe. Cash grade were etaady. No.
I yellow was quoted at ttW&etc
Thar waa a slight drop oa oata a a re
sult of the movement of new crop con
tinuing of good volume, with the grading
excellent. High and low point for Septem
ber were 41c and 42c. The close at the
latter figure showed a net loss of Vto.
An Idea that the recent selling of pro
vision had been excessive brought about
a rally In prices. It Waa argued that hog
product war reasonable aa compared with
other edible. When tha gong struck pork
had risen XiUc to 36a, lard 34c to 2So and
rib Utto to Suo.

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-Wlth practically no
cessation the stock market continued Its
purging process todsv. Prices fell with
greater precipitation 'than at any previous
time In the present movement and losses
increased until they ran from IS to 20
points, compared with a fortnight back,
in shares which for years have ranked
among the certain dividend payers.
I'nlon Paclflo was again the weakest
stock, opening with the greatest loss and
yielding more than 4 points in the first
fortv minutes. The selling of this stock,
which amounted to lCWi shares In the first
hour, was most persistent and gave rise to
a variety of rumors which dealt In part
with houses of International fame.
There were no known developments over
nigbt to which the renewed selling might
he attributed, but the retirement of Mr.
Frlok from the Harrlman directorate was
again referred to as sn Indication of the
attitude of the substantial interests. Added
to this, the mnrket prices touched a level
which might seem attractive to Investors.
London, which seldom participates In this
market on a Saturday, was again reported
a purchaser, but the extent of its op
erations was probably negligible.
The market rallied very generally befor
the end of the first hour, but this was fol.
lowed by another movement In I'nlon Pa
cific which sent that stock lower than
before. At that level buying orders again
lifted the list until some iHsues, notably
I'nlted States Steel, were above the preced
ing dav'a clnslna. The volume of selling
diminished perceptibly and" the Hat - for

CATTLE Receipts of cattle, aa usual on
a Saturday, amounted to the next thing to
nothing, so that there was really no
market.' For th week receipts foot up
26.660 head, being slmost 2.000 head larger
than last week and larger than any recent
week. The market aa a whole has been in
very satisfactory condition. ...
Beef steers have been good sellers all
the week and the best grades of corn
feds are safely ltVjrefte higher that one week
ago, with the general run of fair to pretty
decent kinds of killers l'V(15c higher.
Cows and heifers, owing to the large re
ceipts and to the fact that they were very
high aa compared to beef steers at the
beginning of the week, caused some fltic-
uatlon in prices, but at tne ciose -or tne
week value are substantially the same as
at the close of last week. Very little corn
fed stock Is arriving, the bulk of the supply
consisting of grassers from the range.
Tha volume of business doing in Blockers
and feeders showed a decided Increase last
week and the trade took on more life and
activity than has been the case during most
recent weeks. The country aemana was
good and as a consequence prices are
e-rarlua.il v ImDrovlng. until at the close of
th) week they are safely 152oC higher than
on week ago..

SHEEP Receipts of sheep have been
very liberal this week showing a total of
53,143 head, the heaviest of any week since
the week ending November 19. The arrivals
have consisted almost entirely of rsnge
stock with the majority Of arrivals con
sisting of sheep mostly on the heavy wether
order.
Lamb, owing to ' the moderate supply,
have tteen In very good demand throughout
the week and at the close are safely Xfy&o
higher than a week ago. Good Idaho lambs
sold up as high a-i SUv5.
Heavy sheep were rather slow sale on
most days, but in spite of that fact prices
continued about steady, closing In about the
same notches as last week. Light or bandy
weight sheep on the other hand closed the
week a trifle strong.
Feeders have been in very good demand
throughout the week, but the supply of thin
stock has been very small, most of the
arrivals carrying sufficient flesh to put
them In the killing class. Still the demand
has been so good that the country has
bought a large percentage of stuff thst
would really do to kill. All classes of feed
ers are safely 2crtj50c higher for the week.
Considering ths amount of flesh that a
good many of the feeders are carrying it Is
very evident that buyer Intend to give
them only a short feed, returning them to
the market early In the fall

Amos Kidder, a Nw Jersey farmer, Sj
the only man who la boasting of a pro
perous crop of sweet corn this tesaSotg.
Early in the spring he determined to try k ,
new method of keeping birds from hlg
field, and erected In the middle of hi flv-
acre patch of newly planted corn a woman
scarecrow, the first and only woman tn a
multitude ot men scarecrows In theee part. .
He-dressed her in hobble-skirt styla . "
The crows, which ar proving a verltahi
plague to other farmers, wer evidently "
neither accustomed to Kidder's woman of
fashion nor attracted by her, for with"
esthetic eye and a fine sense of dlcrlmln, .
lion they passed Kidder's field by antic
favored the corn reed of his neighbor,
Kidder has been roundly criticised by varl- 1
ous women's clubs in this section for his
Irreverent and satirical, us of femlnln
fashions. But his corn looks better than "
that of any one else tn the county. ' '
Asbury Park, N. J., has a crow-blackbird
that flies to the beach, perches on drift
wood and rides the breakers for a half
hour dally. Its horn Is near Deal lak.
The bird was first discovered by L8h Til.
ton, captain of the life saving crew,' OS
Sundsy.
Following Saturday's storm th surf was .
full of pieces of driftwood, and tha slrtJ .
had little difficulty In finding a. perch. :
Since then the bird has returned daily. II"
alights on the Casino, and then hops down
to the lifeboat on th beach. Captain Til
ton has a piece of wood that he. throws
into the surf for the bird. It ride with
the smell until the board Is awash, ana
then flies to a bathing pols until Tltlon
throws the stick In again. . , I
Aa snappy a cock flsht as sny etd-tlme
sportsman would hope to see took place In
the tropical bird farm near Kansas City
between a silver pheasant and a- golden
pheasant. It was part of a long feud.-
The sliver pheasant has been the bully o J
that part of the inclosure south of 'tht '
chicken aire. He Is about twice th Slat
of the red and yellow bird known as tht '
golden pheasant, and his spurs are Ilk
steel gaffs. But something stimulated ths
red fowl's courage and ha bored tn with
his bull-like neck until th silver bully's
head was as red as his and there waa
new bully in the poultry yard. ' .
"The golden cock's strength Is mostly ta
his neck and head," the keeper said. "Bul
th feud Isn't over yet. It's discouraging
to th big fellow to have his silver coat all
mussed up and his face scarred. But tin
fight In him will com back 'with his goof
looks.'.' . .. ..
There was a good deal of croaking an
nervous twitching of heads among tht
flamingoes 'and pelicans Just, beyond ;tht ,
fence while the fight was In progress.
