Today run of wheat waa the lariceflt
In the history of the local exchange, Thera
were 67 samples of thla cereal placod
on the tables and fully 10 per cent of the
mplM graded No. 1 and No. 1 hard. There
have been other yeare In Nebraska when ,
the quality of wheat was an kood aa that
of the present crop, but there has been 1
no year whn woather conditions have
Men auch that the farm era were able to
harvest all of their wheat without lomi
of It being spoiled by heavy ralna during
harvest time.
The demand today waa easily strong
enough to take rare of the heavy recelpta,
but prlcea were somewhat lower, and sev
eral tradera preferred to hold their sam
ples over rather than aell them at a de
cline. Most of the aamplea sold at un
unchanged prices, but a few sold le to 2c
lower, and some so lit aa much M I cents
under Saturday's prtcea.
There waa not much cash trading In
corn, because of light recelpta. and the mar
ket ruled from e to c lower.
Oats sold generally from unchanged to
o lower, the bulk selling at cents de
cline. Barley sold a fraction higher and rye waa
quoted nominally unchanged.
i a verpooi close : w heat, ateady : corn,
unchanged to 4d higher. .
Primary wheat recelpta were 1.857,000
and shipments 1,026,000 bu., against re-
Ipta of 1.477.000 bu. and shipments of
106,000 bu. laift year.
Primary corn receipts were 804.000 bu.

ers bronght 91.19, not a great deal different
from laat week. The market waa about
steady ss far as really desirable beef waa
concerned and alow to 10a lower on the

4 there was some country demand, but any-

C. J. T-anc, general freight aeent
of the Union Pacific, who passed
through much of the Nebraska corn
country Sunday while returning with
a party of Union Pacific officials from
Cheyenne, was optimistic over the
corn situation, saying. The corn has
at least a week's fighting chance. If
we get rain in a week the corn will
pull through in fairly good shape. Of
course, a day or two of bad hot winds
would 'fire' it out very quickly, but
with average weather it can -et along
for a week without material damage
from lack of rain."
The Burlington crop report for last
week was not very encouraging, but
was more hopeful than was antici
pated after a totally dry week. The
corn yield estimate has decreased
during the week on all divisions, but
the crop in the Omaha division is not
believed lo be materially damaged,
the agents estimating it as 94 per cent
of a fuM crop, against per cent a
week ago. The greatest damage was
on the Wvmore and McLook di
visions, where there was a drop of 20
per eent. A week ago the Wvmore
division had prospects of a full crop
and this week it is reported as 80 per
cent. 1 he McLook division de
creased from 95 per cent to 75 per
cent. The Lincoln division dropped
from 99 per cent to 83 per cent I he
July estimate of the federal govern
ment gives Nebraska an 84 per cent
crop, indicating that the Burlington
estimate is reasonably correct.
Not Damaged Yet.
In commenting on the outlook the
report says: "On the three eastern
divisions corn is in that state that it
is difficult to say whether actual dam
age has been done from the hot
weather or whether the limit before
actual damage has been done is still
a few days off. The early corn is at
the most critical state, in the silk and
tassel, and if corn is already dam
aged, the greatest damage is, of
course, to the earlier corn. On the
McCook division there seems to be
no doubt that considerable damage
has actually resulted from the hot,
dry weather. If within the next few
days, or possibly a week, we should
have general and sufficient rains we
could reasonably hope for a fair corn
crop.
For the week ending last Friday
the Burlington shipped 2,265 cars of
grain, as against 397 tars during the
same period last year. This is due to
more favorable Conditions for thresh
ing.
The second crop of alfalfa was
shortened in some places by the dry
weather and the third crop will, of
course, be very slqw in starting and
the fields will dry out rapidly when
the crop is mowed off and no new
growth started to cover tne grounu.

Aviator Able to Look
Over Big Area of Land
rrorrsinandcnD of The Associated Presa.)
, Paris, July 21. An airship at 4,000
cubic vards height is able to make
observations over a surface of ground
300 miles in diameter, according to
information co ected in the discus
sion of the services that aircraft has
rendered during the war. An aviator
at 1,000 yards height has within his
vision a zone seveniVTiive mucs
diameter. Accordingly, the Abbe
Moreaux of the Bourges observatory
has figured out that an aviator of

Receipts Broken
For Omaha Market
All oast records of wheat receipts
were brokenon the Omaha market
the first of the week, when 676 car
loads of wheat appeared.
Prices held up well under the flood
f wheat offered and at the close of
the buying only a few samples re
mained. In these vast receipts Omaha
led all primary grain markets in the
United States for the day and was
second only to Minneapolis, which is
not strictly a primary market.

90 per cent was new wheat. Grain
men hnd that this is ot excellent
quality. In fact, the Nebraska crop
this year bids fair to lead all states
in quality and in the quantity per
acre.

AND NO RELIEF IN SIGHT
The driest July ever recorded in
the weather annals of Omaha is the
month just closing.
Less than half an inch of rain fell
during this July .45 of an inch, .to
be exact.
The average rainfall for July, taken
froi . statististics of forty-five years,
is 4.33 inches. In July, last year, we
had 7.45 inches of rain. The
wettest July ever recorded here was
in 1884, when there was 10.35 inches
of rain. The driest July except the
present one was in 1874, when thert
was only .54 of an inch of rain.
Regarding the heat it's the same
old story. "Fair and continued high
temperature tonight and tomorrow."
A very dry atmosphere, assisted
by a brisk northwest breeze, made the
heat less noticeable Monday morn
ing. But even the north wind these
days is hot, for it comes from places
that are just as hot as Omaha.
Five Deaths at Dubuque.
Dubuque, la., July 31. Five per
