y the general level of North Dakota MARKET TREND I$ UNCHANGED Indications Are Wheat Prices Will Remain at Present Level Indications are that the present trends in industrial activity and in nonagricultural prices will maintain present business conditions until the end of the year, according to a statement issued today by 0. M. Fuller, assistant farm etonomist at the state agricultural ee “The ee unfavorable factor is the higher level of interest rates,” he said. “The rising trend in non- agricultural prices which has been in progress on a_ moderate scale since last fall has been accompanied by a continued recovery in general business conditions from the reces- sion of last winter. “Wholesale market prices reached the highest level so far this year during the second week of Septem- ber and have declined since then from an index of 154 to 151 Oct. 2. The index of farm prices Sept. 15 at 141 was 2 points higher than Aug. 15 and only 1 point higher than the index of a year ago. The index of farm prices for Oct. 15 is 1 point higher than that of a month ago, “Prospects are that wheat prices will hold near present levels during the next few weeks with fluctuations due to reports of crop conditions in the Southern Hemisphere. A con- tinuation of low prices will probably lead to an increased consumption and some increase in the price of hard red winter and spring wheat may be expected before the end of the sea- son, Forecasts and estimates of crops in 31 countries of the northern hemisphere total 3,235 million bushels compared with about 2,998 million bushels produced in the same countries last year, an increase of 8 per cent, The world wheat supply outside of Russia and China now ap- pears likely to be 5 per-cent larger than the supply available for last “season but this increase will be off- set in part by an increase in demand for heat. Estimates of rye pro- duction in 19 European countries now total 815 million bushels compared with 751 million bushels last year. Wheat Production Increases “The estimated production of durum wheat in North Dakota Oct. 1 was 66,715,000 bushels. This is an increase of 10,799,000 bushels over that produced in 1927. The total estimate of production of other spring wheat in North Dakota Oct. 1 was 74,158,000 bushels. This is an increase of 151 thousand bushels over the Sept. 1 estimate and an increase of 5,204,000 bushels over the 1927 cxop. Ni “Indications are that the present yore! of flaxseed prices will be main- ained for the next few months. The roduction of flaxseed in the United Beates in 1928 is now estimated at 22,472,000 bushels. This is consider- bly below last year’s crop of 28,- 70,000 bushels. Potato Forecasts Unchanged “The forecasts of potato produc- tion Oct, 1 were practically the same as those of a month ago. It seems unlikely that Roipiors will advance in price much before the end of the year. The chief factor which might make the actual out-turn of the cro] Jess than now estimated is the ef- fect that the unusually low price now prevailing may have on he amount of stoes left in the field. _ “Information available indicates that the comparatively heavy rattle receipts during September “Toes doting the balance of 1928 will ings 1e ce wil be less than last year. The prosper- ous condition of the cattle industry ]s probably the most outstanding ears ct the agricultural situation in a “With fewer hogs to be marketed this winter, with reduced storage stocks and with a strong domestic and foreign demand, it seems likely that.the decline in prices which has pa into the second week of October will be checked some and that during November and December prices will average higher than last year. Receipts of hogs increased pay during September and dur- ing the last week of the month they were nearly 40 per cent heavier at 12 markets than during the cor- responding week last-year.” BOWMAN PLANS FLYING SCHOOL Bowman, N.

Man Becomes Blazing Rocket After Blast Toronto, Ont., Oct. 25.—(AP)— Dispatches from Rouyn, Que., to the Mail and Empire today described a series of explosions in the coal pul- verizing plant of the Noranda smelt- er yesterday during which a laborer was hurled through a second story window, his clothes ablaze, but alighted on his feet and suffered little injury.

WEBB BROTHERS THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE HORNED PEOPLE ROAMED SOUTH Bones and Relics Found Be- lieved to Be Left by Pre- historic Race Tampa, Fla., Oct. 25.—(4)—Re- cent excavations lead local archae- ologists to believe that this section once was inhabited by a sturdy race of small statured people, some of whom had horn-like projections above their ears. On a ‘mound near the home of George Henriquez, ‘near Tampa, were found bones and relics which A. M. Wade, Tampa Archaeological Society, be- lieves. were left by a prehistoric tribe of men. “The size of the thigh bones leads to the conclusion that this race averaged not more than five president of the feet in height, but were very sturdy,” Mr. Wade says. “This is indicated not alone by the thigh bones but by the massive jaw bones which form nearly a square, as compared with the triangular jaw bones of the modern man, The strong teeth, which have been worn jto the gums in many instances, in- dicate a race of a long-lived people, possibly running inte a hundred years or more. “Many of the skulls found in the mound have strange characteris- tics. Some of them have horn-like projections, some are several times as thick as the ordinary human skull, some of them slant back A THREE DAYS’ COUGH IS YOUR DANGER SIGNAL Coughs from colds may lead to se- rious trouble.
