Out of respect to the memory of Mri.
Woodrow Wilson, wife of the president
of the United States, the grain market
of the country cloned at noon, but this
did not prevent price moving up to hitch
poinU of the year. Crops Injured by dry
weather and the war In Europe cauned
the must erratic market In years. Tho
fluctuations were so rapid and the spreads
letwem the hlffh and the low were so far
apart that Chicago shut out all tho Uttlti
dealers and Omaha quickly followed suit.
Originally 10 carried a buying or sell-
in order on 1,000 buphela of grain. Later
i on as the war progressed 5.004 bushels
! was the smallest order that would be
given consideration, and a margin of 10
cents per bushel was required on this.
Now Chicago has adopted a rule that a
dealer in options must not only put up
10 ccnte per bushel on a 5,000-buahel
trade, but must keep this margin good
all the lime. The result has been that all
the small speculators have been shut out
of the game.
Wheat nonaM l a Vast.
The Omaha Grain exchange started the
Monday business with 119 ears of wheat,
12 cars of corn and 100 cars of oats on
sale. The wheat was quickly bought up
at prices ranging between &8 nnd l2
cents, the assertion being made that it
would all go Into storago to be held for
higher prices and probably for May de
livery. The Chicago market set a pace thnt
was hard to even catch, letslnne to keep
up with.
The September option closed at ;
cents last Saturday night and opened at
94 cents Monday morning. It sold down
to H cents and quickly rebounded, going
to DS'i. December moved about in the
same fashion, the 8aturday close being
at an even II and the opening at 99 cents,
which was low for the day. From that
point it climbed rapidly, touching I1.03',,
the highest point it haa ever reached.
Mar Optloa W 114.
The May option was wild from the
start. Saturday's close was 11.07. The
opening was $1.07, which was the low
of the day. From that price there was a
steady climb until $1.10 was reached, when
the option sold off at to i cent per
quotation. Then it took on new life and
rebounded to $l.ll'., the high of the year.
; Corn followed wheat and the changes
I woro almost as great. Dealers are now
predicting $1 and even higher and that $J
wheat will rule long before next May.

Ironing Troubles Disappear at the
Fairy-Like Touch of the Electric Iron
If your home is electrically lighted,
you can always enjoy an easy, f retless iron
ing day. You can do the work in far less
time, too, than with the old-fashioned, inef
ficient sad irons. There is no reason why
ironing should exhaust you because
An Electric Iron is Inexpensive
"To Own and Operate
An Electric Iron means better ironing the elimination
of scorching or sticking. The clean, polished surface of an
Electric Iron is always at the right temperature and it
stays so even on heavy wet work. For the summer
months especially you will appreciate the cool comfort
