Remarks were current on the exchange
floor that the high-priced grain was seed
corn, but President Bewsher of the Bew
sher Oram company, which aold a oar
load at the high figure, aays it waa taken
by a feeder. The Nyo-Bchneider-Fowler
company waa another that sold at the

Buyers from western and Pad Ho coast
markets. It la said, are partly responsible
for the high selling prices here. From

!SUNDGREN'S
TIMELY
The fear of a Coal Strike has hastened orders
for Gas Ranges and Gas "Water Heaters. They are
coming in rapidly, but not so rapidly as they will
come when the threatened strike causes a coal fam
ine, or, at best, prohibitory prices.
Be timely; order yoor Gas Bange and Water
lleater NOW and laugh at the etrike when it dot-s
come.
And even if there is no strike, yon will be ahead,
because Gas is much more economical than any
other modern fuel with which to cook and to heat
water, and much more convenient.
A telephone call or a postal will bring a repre
sentative to your door.
