Cblcaco. Auk. I. Mlwclvinrs which turned
out to be correct that tbe government crop
report although bearish would not Indicate
o large a yield ot corn aa bad been gen
erally predicted, led today to a moderate
upturn In corn price. The market closed
firm. 461ke net higher, at 1 1.17fe)1.17H
for December and 11.1401-1 for May.

Dd-provisions, I70c
Wary aborts In the corn market began
In the laxt half of the session to take meas
ures to guard against any possible surprise
la tbe government report. As a rule tbe
trad had been 'looking for an estimated
leld of about 3,700,000,000 bushels, but
finally concluded that this total was too
hlgb at present, aa tbe official figures would
not . take account of the full-benefit from
recent generous rains. Then, too, there
were advleea from Kansas to the effect that
crop In some sections bad been Irresparably
damaged and that benefits therefore from
moisture could not be general. The reault
here was a gradual upturn In values that
much more than offxet a decline, which had
been witnesaed In the earlier part of the
dsy, when favorable weather and a pros
pect cf further showers had given temporary
eaae to the market Discussion of dangers
from frost counted somewhat as a factor 1n
hardening quotations In the dealings near
the close. '
Damage reports from Kansas and even
ing tip by aborts to perpare for any possible
sxnprlse In the government report led to
a gradual advance. The close was firm at
a net gain of H9"4 of a cent, with De
cemb.r at $1.1791.17 and May at
11. 14 01, UK.
Wheat traders failed to anticipate the
falling off which the government report
showed In the probable yield of wheat. The
fact that harvesting had commenced In
Canada tended somewhat to favor the'beaT
aide of tbe market, i More or less depression
was also due to opinions eipressed that to
all practical purpose the passage of the
food bill would stifle business In future de
liveries. Later the market appeared to be at a
virtual standstill and there was a general
Impression that to all purposes the passage
of the food bill would result In the wheat
trade being stifled. The close was steady.
tc net lower, at 11.25 for September.
Oats rallied in sympathy with corn.
Houses with seaboard connection were the
best buyers. The government report as to
oats was about what a majority of dealers
had looked for.
Strength characterized provisions through
out the day. The chief bullish Influence came
from an advance of maximum prices In
England, shipments of fresh and cured
meats from her were much larger than
was ths case a yesr ago.

The PERFORMANCE, UTILITY and CONSTRUCTION
ot the CLEVELAND TRACTOR Have Amazed Fremont
Performance
Those hundreds who saw the
CLEVELAND marveled .at its
. performance.
Yesterday they saw it sur
mount mud filled ditches.
They saw it turn in a twelve
foot circle, without even the
guiding hand of a driver.
They and other hundreds will
see it pull two fourteen-inch bot
tom plows and with them plow
up eight to ten acres a day. And
this even though the land be wet
and soggy.
The CLEVELAND Is built to
work in rain or shine. So the
condition of the land to be
worked is immaterial.
Wet soil or dry soil, level or
hill; they are all alike. For the
CLEVELAND just won't stick or,
mire.; " r '
It can't Itsconstruction
makes' it- impossible that it
should.
Utility
The utility of the CLEVELAND is
almost beyond belief.
It is capable of doing a wider range
6f work--doihg it more quickly and
more economically than any tractor
of its size on the market.
Make us prove this statement at
Fremont. We can do it easily.
The CLEVELAND will do more
Work than three three-horse teams
and three men.
And this not for one day, but day
Jn and day out, under the most trying
conditions;1 v
Plowing, 5 harrowing, discing and
all kinds of stati6nary work are but a
few of the things that the CLEVE
LAND can do for you, more speedily
and more cheaply than you are now
doing them,V ' l'''.

Apprehension Felt for

apprehension is felt for the safety of
S. Wooding, contractor, of this city.

expected to enter into a building con
tract. Jie has not been heard from

port that he has not made his pres
ence known there.
As time passes with no word from
him, his friends are. beginning to feel
that he met with an accident or foul
play. Mrs. "Wooding left for a trip
to California a few days before the
disappearance of her husband. ..
