Cash Corn is Unusually Weak and Takes Record Slump of Twenty-Four to , Thirty-One Cents. Omaha, August 11. 1917. The cash corn situation was extremely weak today and all varieties of this cereal sold at an unusually heavy decline, the bulk of th offerings being quoted from J4o to 31c below the quotations of the previous day. The heavy decline In corn was caused. In a large measure, by a noticeable absence of the distilling demand which has been So keen during the last few weeks, but the local floor demand was moderatly active, and quite a few of tho offerings were re portd sold before the close of tho cash session. , The wheat market wn-i very dull with prices quoted from 4c to 4c lower and while arrivals of this cereal continued very light the demand was very poor and as a. result not one sale of wheat was potted up to 12:30. The oats market was fairly active with moderatly heavy arrivals and sellers re ported a rather good inquiry for this article at prices ruling from unchanged to Ho lower. There were, no sales, of No. 2 whit or standard oats reported and the bulk of the offerings, which graded No. 3 white sold at 74itc, while to No. 4 white brought 74o and 74Vic. , The better grades of white corn sold up around 81.88 to (1.90, while the yellow ranged from $1.79 to 81.81 and th mixed sold generally at $1.78 to 81.80. Rya .and barley were quoted nominally unchanged and the trade In these cereals was dull with continued light arrivals. Clearances were: Wheat and flour qual to 104,000 bu. Primary grain receipts were 891,000 bu. and shipments 492.000 bu.. against receipts of 1.883.000 bu. and shipments of 1,114,000 bu. last year. Primary corn receipts were 603,000 bu. and shipments 328,ono bu.. against receipts of 608.000 bu. and shipments of 551,000 bu. last year. Primary oats receipts were J. 069.000 bu. and shipments 463.000 bu., against receipts of 2,016,000 bu. and shipments of 961,000 bu, last year, CARLOT RECEIPTS, Wheat, Chicago 71 Corn. 103 Minneapolis 135 1 ul u'u Omaha s. ....... 6 )4 - 21 it Kansas City ....150 St. Louis 190 Winnipeg 40 These sales were reported today: Corn No. 2 white: 1 car, $1.90.

FACE DIFFICULTY IN SEEDING WHEAT Farmers Find Corn Rows Are Too Close Together to Use Standard One-Horse Drill. Great difficulty is encountered in getting the fall wheat crop seeded in Nebraska this yVar. The com rows are too close together to admit the standard one-horse drill between them. The trouble has been looked "into by the University of Nebraska, Col lege of Agriculture, and the situation is believed to be serious. The authori ties at the college of agriculture im mediately canvassed the implement manufacturing concerns of the coun try to see if a narrower thill could be quickly manufactured for the mar ktt here, but were told this is im possible, owing to the shortage of steel, and the crowded condition of manufacturing in the country at the present time. The situation arises out of the fact that much of the wheat was winter killed last winter and that this ground tvas listed into corn in the spring. Now the only way to get that corn land back into winter wheat is to go through t now with a one-horse drill between the rows and drill in wheat, which will come up now, lie dormant in the corn stalks through the winter, and then produce a crop in the spring. Difficulties Arise. However, the fact that corn was listed into the wheat land in the spring with no markings to go by, made it difficult to calculate the dis Buy From These Omaha Firms Premium Oleomargarine Sweet Piire Clean Will Cut Your Butter Bill in Half Sold By All Dealers .

When corn is listed into old corn laud it is an easy matter to follow the old rows, but when it is being listed into plowd ground or wheat land, there is no standard to go by, and the tendency was to run the rows too close together, rather than too far apart. Especially did this tendency grow out of the constant cry for con servation and ;he eternal urge upon the farmer to produce more on his acreage. The standard one-horse wheat drill is made to fit exactly between corn rows, the standard width apart. Corn that is checked with a planter is al ways of this standard width as to rows. Considerable alarm over the situa tion that has thus developed is felt by the authorities at the University of Nebraska, ami by those farmers who have already purchased one horse drills and fcntnd them useless in some of their fields.

Power for Milling Omaha as With the announcement of the or-' ganization and incorporation of the Omaha Roller Mills company to take over the property of the Gate City Malt company and produce 1,800 bar rels of flour per day, began a lot of active thinking in Omaha as to Oma ha's possibilities as' a flour milling center. Plenty of Wheat. The coining of the new roller mill means that Omaha's daily output of flour will be practically doubled. Oma ha now produces 2,000 barrels of flour per day. That is the output of the 'combined flour mills of the city. The new mill is to be, built for a capacity output of 1,800 barrels per day. When interested parties began to examine the figures they found that Minneapolis receives 225,000,000 bush els of grain per year and mills 80,000 barrels of flour per day, or about 24, 000,000 barrels per year. It was found that Omaha receives 75.000,000 bushels of grain per year and puts out only TAFTS DENTAL ROOMS NEW LOCATION 318 Rose Building 16th and Farnam Sts. Douglas 2186.

Tit Is as Cheap in It Is in Minneapolis 2,000 barrels of flour per day, or 600, 000 barrels per year. Thus it was found that Minneapolis receives only three times as much grain as Omaha, but puts out forty times as much flour. Power Is Cheap Here. Omaha manufacturers and business inen are beginning to see that there is no longer any excuse for this dif ference. For many years the opinion prevailed that Minneapolis had a great advantage over Omaha in the matter of power. It was commonly supposed that water power was very cheap and very generally used in Min neapolis. Those who have looked into the situation very closely now maintain that most of the big mills there are rim by electricity, and that water power was used only when the milling industry was young in Minne apolis. The new mill in Omaha will use electric power, and that is what the Minneapolis mills use. Officers of the new company in Omaha say the power here is just as cheap now as it is in Minneapolis.
