Most trsders think that had supplies twin any heavier there would have boon a much greater decline. Packers simply did not want to take on any mors than was neces sary, for while the local car shortage hHs been relieved to a great extent, eastern markets are congested, coolers being over loaded and demand for all kinds of dressed mutton slack.

Estimates that only 89,000 bushels of wheat remained for ex port from the United States during the next four months had a decided bullish Influence today on prices. Largely In consequence the market at the close, although unset tled, was 20 to 4o net higher, with May at 11.88 to $1.88 and July at $1.69 to l.&u. uorn gamea io to s7ac oats 10 to lo and provisions 32c to 86c, Bullish sentiment developed rapidly In the wheat trade after the probable smallness of 'the exportable surplus had been an nounced. The estimate, was from a leading expert' here and was accompanied by a surmise on his part that the government computation of the 1916 yield Jiad been a.ouu.ouu ousneis too mgn. Asiae from tne figures on the exportable surplus, however. tne mantel naa an upward tendency owing to- prospecta that American vessels noon would resume sailings and that shipments to Europe In consequence would be much Increased, Improvement In railway traffif facilities to Oulf, of Mexico porta counted also to aome extent In favor of higher prices. snow rails in tne souinwest retarded more or less the advance of new-crop deliveries of wheat. Besides, on account of the week end profit taking, there was a moderate reaction all around from top prices as the day approached finish. Nevertheless the buying power in the market seemed to show no curtailment and there were but few traders sufficiently venturesome to put out new short lines. Corn established a new high price record. The reasons were that the bog market attll was soaring, and that the latest reckon ings put i the domestic farm reserves of corn at the lowest aggregate since 1892. Oats responded in lively fashion to the strength of other grain. Trade was much larger than recently has been the case, and it was said rural offerings also had increased. Urgent export demand for lard was a factor In hoisting the entire provision market to unprecedented levels. Other causes were the ccontlnuance of the hog shortage and of the remarkable accompany ing advance ot tne value of corn,. .

Limit No Man Knows the HUDSON SUPER-SIX ,,,--.;v.r'-.- .yv'v ' -: ';,,;r.'1;:,f:..-;;,'' . . ; A hundred rivalries have proved it the greatest motor car V , f performer that's built. Neverhas a single type won all the worth-while records. But it still is an enigma. Every month reveals some new supremacies some unguessed possibilities ' - i 1 I 0 1 S8l i P Few of us, probably, will ever know how long r i'ih nsr ' We called the Super-Six, when it first came out, a 76-horse power motor. That was 80 per cent more efficiency than was obtained from the same size theretofore. Since then we have seen it develop vastly more power thari that. t . ' We watched it break all the speed records for stock cars. Then it broke its own records by still bigger margins. ' In a hundred cities, Super-Sixes broke the records on local hills. Then one, day, in competition with twenty of the worlds fa mous mountain racing cars, all specially built, a Super-Six special broke the record up Pike's Peak, and became the world's. master hill- climber. , , . A stock Super-Six chassis broke the 24-hour record, to prove supreme endurance. And broke it by 52 per cent f ; A Super-Six touring car, heavily loaded, ran from San Francisco to New York. It broke the record of a famous eight by 2 days. . , But the car wasn't even fazed. So we turned ' around and went back, and agin broke the record. : How Long Will It Last? For 14 months, in the severest tests known, we have tried to prove how long a Super-Six will last. But we haven't a line on it. . . We have run a Super-Six at record-breaking speed for over 3,000 miles. But no part or" , bearing in the Super-Six showed evidence of wear.'',' !1 last. i I P t . A New Condition The Super-Six, which is a Hudson invention, brings up a new condition. v Friction has heretofore been a motor's great est foe. Here it is almost nil. i , The result, we know, is such performance, such endurance as never was known before. But we have no idea of the limits. Be Glad It h a Six Men should be glad that tlys great motor is a light arid simple Six. That was always, save for vibration, the ideal motor type! And now in smoothness the Super-Six excels "all other types. ' ' - ' All these supremacies are attained without adding, size or cylinders. We still have the Six simplicity. ! And this year, by a gasoline saver, we greatly increase its economy. In the past year we have brought Hudson bodies tip to the Super-Six standard. Now every Hudson Super-Six looks the ruler - that it is. ' . r ' We built 25,000 last year, yet thousands were unable to get delivery and were disappointed. We shall build 30,000 this year. .Just think how much better the Super-Six is known, and therefore how much greater will be the de mand. A fine-car buyer who is well-informed can have no other choice. . You will save delay and perhaps disap pointmentif you see your Hudson dealer now. .

' Architects and Contractors throughout the East and the best local architects have recognized its merit and demanded that it be add to specifications of building. ' It '' stops rot and splintering of wood does away with all dusting and makes CONCRETE F L 0 ORS water, acid, grease and oilproof. The penetrating oils used in it are not even inflammable, and the gummy substance which develops as it seeps through the fibers of the wood gradually oxidizesNand . the metamorphosis shows an ada manting hardening where the pre- '. 3ervative comes in contact with the oxygen of the air and yet remains in a liquid state in the interior of the treated ; surface indefinitely. There is no evaporation at all. , This is the reason that a Saum's- treated floor needs no other treat ment during the life of the build- : - ing. There is always a fresh supply, of the material just below the sur face ready fo become oxidized if, for any reason, the top or wearing' surface. is removfid by traffic or abrasion. - ' That Saum's does not disappear by evaporation even when entirely exposed to the air is proved by the - fact that if a small quantity of the , oil is placed on a sheet of glass and : allowed to oxidize, it will be found to weigh'a little more after oxidiza tion than when first placed on the , glass.
