Postponed by War Work
Berause many of the students of
the University of Nebraska have en
listed for the war, and because many
more of tile young men have been
allowed to go home to the farms to
help in raising a war-time crop, the
University day in Omaha celebration
for May 4 has been postponed until
a more opportune time. Dean Eng
berg, executive of. the university;
Chancellor Avery, and E. V. Parrish,
manager of the bureau of publicity of
Omaha, have agreed upon the post
ponement for the above reasons. It
was felt that under the circumstances

it was last year, nor all that should
be expected in normal times, and it
was believed best to postpone it for
the time being.

Their parents, Mr. and Mrs. John

cider son to fight for Uncle Sam in
the war, but opposed the younger
lad's desire to volunteer.
So a compromise was reached
whereby both boys will serve the na
tion in the war. Oscar joined the ma
rines here Saturday, while Harry will
help produce food for the nation on
the farm of his uncle, Arthur Gould,
of Newcastle.
Oscar says he will study and work
for a commission in the marines. The
father ot the boys served in the

GRAIN AND PRODUCE
Cash Wheat Still Anaemic, but
Hard Winter Article Arouses
Much Interest.
CORN TRADE IS ACTIVE
Omaha. April 28, 1917.
The trade In cash wheat was very slow
today and while a few sales of hard winter
wlteat were made at prices ruling around
unchanged to 4c higher, a late break in
the future market caused a dullness In
the cash trade and a numbor of samples
were held over.
There was, however, a pretty fair in
ojilry for wheat and while the sales were
light the general run of samplei brought
pretty good prices. No. 3 hard selling
around $2 90 to $2.94, while No, 3 durum
brought $2.70 and a few cars of No. 4
mixed wheat brought $2 SO and $2 84.
The trade In corn was pretty active, and
there wan a good demand for this cereal,
with tho white variety seliinR at $1
advance and the yellow and mixed selling
about l'tc lower.
Oats sold very readily at a decline of 1
to lc, and white the receipts weru pretty
fair the tables were pretty well cleared
up at an early haul.
Rye and barley were In good demand at
toady prices, but th trade In these cereals
was somewhat restricted on account of light
receipts.
Clearances were: Wheat and flour equal
to 361.O00 bushels; corn, 121.000 bushels:
oats. 34.000 bushels.
Primary wheat receipts were "67,0011 bu.
and shipments 763,000 bit., against receipts
of 763. ono bu. and shipments of 83O.0OU bu.
last year.
Primary corn receipts were 657,000 bu.
and shipments 776,000 bu., against receipts
or 413, ooo bu. and shipments of 659,000 bu.

CHK AOO C1RAIN AND PROVISIONS,
Whea,. and Corn Jnmp Iwmrd on In
creased Demand By Entente.
Chicago, April 38. Feverish advances) of
lio here In the price of wheat today
were followed by a sudden collapse of
6o, owing largely to official denials that
the entente allies had been purchasing fu
ture deliveries at Winnipeg and because of
action of tho Winnipeg exchange In pro
hibiting all speculative trade.
A wild finish In the Chicago market re
sulted, with the market varying from 2o
under yesterday's close to 7o advance, with
May at $2.7402.74 and July, $2.2602.26.
Corn closed c off to lo up, and oats off
l'4o to lc. In revisions the outcome
ranged from 6c decline to an equal gain.
The wave of liquidation sales was added
to by news In Omaha no more trades in
May wheat would be cleared, except the
closing out of old contracts. In the last
fifteen minutes, week-end evening up ot
business led to something of a recovery,
but the day ended with the pit In a de
moralised condition.
Uncertainty of wheat traders at the fin
ish was due in great degree to the tact
that the recent great advance In Chicago
prices was based largely on the assumption
that upturns in the Winnipeg market were
due mainly to purchases for Great Britain
and Its allies.
Corn broke sharply with wheat after
having Jumped with that cereal to new high
levels. Trades waa relatively small in corn,
and the market had no Independent action.
Business In oats attained large proportions,
but olherwlae the cereal duplicated the
ci urse of other gral , especially with re
gard to dovelopmenis at Winnipeg.
Provisions, like other commodities, ad
vanced to fresh top records and then
crumpled down. Fluctuations were mainly
in y -.pit thy with thu changes In the neigh
boring pits.
