It «was recalled that in 1905 and in 1915 the northwest raised bumper crops under present condi- tions and it.wag suggested that a epetition of the ten-year cycle might be, witnessed this season. Apparent dearth of important new export business tended also to induco a selling and to weaken values. The opening which ranged from quarter cent decline to 1c advance, May, $1.50 to $1.61 and July $140% to $1.4114 was followed by numerous fluctuations within limits of about | 3%c, May touching $1.47%. Subsequently a reduction of more than 40,000,000 bushels in the esti- mated wheat yield of India had a rallying effect on the market. Wheat closed unsettled at the same as yes- terday’s finish to 1 cent lower, May $1.49% to $1.50% and July $1.40 to $1.40%. Despite a good deal of commis- sion house buying in the corn mar- ket, corn and oats were easy, taking their cue mostly from the action of wheat. . After opening unchanged to 1%c higher, July $1.13% the cern market underwent a setback to below yesterday's finish. Later the market was influenced by the fact that eastern demand was only fair and by reports that plant- ing in the south was showing rapid progress. Corn ¢losed nervous, at the same as yesterday's finish to 1 cent lower,. July, $1.125% to 1.12%. Oats started at 44c to %e up, July, 43% to 43%c. Later there were small losses all around. Provisions had a downward slant, in the absence of any aggressive support. } Wheat-- Open High Low Close May -150 1.61 1.46% 1.49% July ~ 141% 1.41% 1.38% 1.40 Sept. --- 1.34% 1.94% 1.91% 1.32% Corn— May ~ 1.0915 1.10% 1.07 ~ 1.08% | July ~ 1134 LIK LILY 1.12% Sept. -.. 1.13 1.131§ 1.10% 1.12 | Oats— May - Ali 41% 42. 41% July 48% 4314 427 48% Sept. --- 43% 44 43% 43% Rye— May 1.09 1.07% 1.08 July ; 1.08% 1.06 1.07 Sept. --- 1.00 1.01%, .99 99% Lara— May -15.10 July 18.45 Sept. -=-16.72 Ribs— | May | ----16.20 | July 16.30 ] Sept. ..16.26 Bellies— May 95 18.

But.to plunge into the details of most interesting evening of the two- weeks’ Scoutmaster’s school. ery member of the three patrols who are fitting themselves as potential scoutmasters was present. A tay- alcade of twenty automobiles carry- ing the school members and many visitors left Episcopal church promptly at six o'clock last night and a few minutes later were at t camp grounds. The school author! ties had previously selected a beau- tiful site and provided in addition to material for a bonfire, other nec- essary equipment including salt and pepper, buns, doughnuts and coffee, each person bringing their own piece of meat. Scoutmaster Edmonds Kuittle having previously lafd out a course for trailing and tracking, started off at five minute intervals. The experience was keenly interesting and instructive and there was great activity among the patrols in con- testing for merit points. Bulldog patrol covered the course first, win- ning five merit points for its patrol making the fastest time. Jack and Bear patrols never lagged made creditable showings. It might be stated here that a keen interest is being worked up by the patrols to excel In all contests in order to garner the most merit points. At this period In the schoo! the contest for merit points is so close as to preclude any prediction as to which will prove the winner when the school ends next Frida; night.
