5 i ¥ THURSDAY, MAY 7, MARKET NEWS Biot) Markets By jociated Press WHEAT PRICE LOWER AGAIN Heavy Selling Lowers Value of Grain in Chicago (By The Associated Press) Chicago, May 7.—Heavy selling to/ realize profits made wheat prices average lower today during the early dealings. Most of the selling came from commission houses that were active buyers of late at levels con- siderably under current values. One of the factors which induced selling was an estimate that spring wheat acreage in the United States showed an increase of 15.3 per cent as com- pared with last year’s total. Open- ing quotations, which ranged from % cent decline to .1%ce advances, with May $1.67 and July $1.53% to $1.56, were followed by an irregular descent to $1.65% for May and $1.53 4; for July. A further decline ensued, but then a transient rally took place on ac- count of a low estimate of the pro- bable yield in Kansas. Renewed weakness was due to selling on the part of traders who sought to avoid a possible surprise in the government crop report. Wheat closed ‘nervous, 1 to 2 1-2 cents net lower, May $1.64 1-2 and July $1.52 3-4 to $1.53. CHICAGO Hee ock Chicago, May 7 (U. S. Dept.

Temperamental actresses, whose best moods for the day’s work may have been upset by a clumsy maid or an ill-fitting gown during the make-up period in the morning, left many directors in desperation until the innovation of “sideline” music. In 1916, when this adjunct to temperament was introduced, the in- trument was a rickety portable or- gan, but it served to soothe the emo- tions of the actr Its deep so- natas, the directors the actresses’ memories of the maid and unpleasant gown. Pianos were tried, possible to move to the various sets about the studio, and had to be aban- doned altogethey when the company journeyed to location, ~perhaps hun- dreds of miles away. With the innovation of “sideline” music, the quality of the music and the musicians began to improve. Then came the demand for musical com- binations, which usually consist of a violin, organ and ’cello. The limited repertoire of the musi- cians is past. Monotony has des- troyed its usefulness.

Cooling and Ventilating Farm Cellar Nearly every farm has a well or creamery near the house that can be used to advantage for cooling the cellar. A simple method. of doing this, using water to cool the air, which is drawn through an underground pipe into the cellar, is shown in the illustra- j tion. In the upper figure fresh air enters the well and is cooled by the water before entering the pipe, and an electric blower sucks the air through the pipe and into the cellar. The humidity of the air is also in- creased by passing over the water. \ If this method is not possible, a simi- lar cooling system shown in the lower detail can be made to work in con- nection with the water tank in the | creamery, if, this is not too far sway from the house. The duct, Gee fa which the cold air is drawn, is rough the water tank ‘indicated.

Winter storms impose a heavy strain on the aerial and masts, and these should be gone over thor- oughly to.see that they have not been damaged, or the. aerial accidentally grounded.

What the World Is Doing \ As Seen by Popular Mechanics Magazine Two Hundred Inventions Daily Reports of the patent office for 1924 show that applications were re- ceived at the rate of about 300 a day and that some 200 were granted daily, | including designs and trademarks. Those issued totaled 63,062, an in- crease of nearly 6,000 over 1923, and the number of applications was 101,- 134. The office reduced the number of applications awaiting official action by nearly 12,000 and lowered the av- erage time to four and one-half months for new work and to between three and four months for old work. All fifty-four divisions of the office were less than eight months behind at the close of the year, while on January 1,-1924, twenty divisions were more than eight months in arrears. 8 A Stain for Glass Windows Window Staining, for privacy or other purposes, can he quickly and cheaply done at home withqut call- ing in a professional workman. The only materials required are white shellac, dye of the desired color, and waterproof varnish. For a white window, which admits light, but which is not transparent, coat the glass carefully with white shellac, dissolved in alcohol. After the shellac is dry, apply another coat, if neces- sary; then, after drying again, cover with the waterproof varnish. Such a window can be washed indefinitely without removing the stain. Colored windows are made by mix: ing ordinary cloth dyes into the shel- lac until the desired shade is attained. For instance, for photographic dark- room use, mix orange and crimson ayes into the shellac until it is very dark, ee @To hy black on glass or briglf metal, use a mixture of water glas | (silicate of soda), 1 to 2 parta, and liq | uid india ink, 0 varts.

Looking Ahead With a Savings Account NE of the best habits we can form is to save money, but to do it syStematically so that it accumulates by its own value—that is a far better conception of thrift. The man, woman or child who can look years ahead —when money saved will take care of them in the winter of their lives — is the person who has foresight. Such a future is made possible by saving weekly or monthly a certain sum, allowing it to accumulate interest, all of which grows with amazing rapidity. Start looking ahead today!
