Markets LIVESTOCK SUMMARY Record prices were made last week at South St. Paul on steers, hogs and sheep, }geepxng step with the record-breaking figures in the grain trade. It was one of the best weeks since the open weather of last week, and a feature was the stimulated demand for stockers and feed- ers. Buyers were eager to get goed stock for finishing, and speculators hoisted their prices accordingly. Packers also came in for some competition on the cat- tle fit for slaughter, especially the cows and heifers, and took ssome of this class away from the yard dealers. A load of steers bought as feeders last fall at $7 was turned back as fat cattle to the packers at $11.40 setting a new record for a carload at this market. Prices on animals a little inferior to this were also strong throughout the week, the sellers having the edge of buyers most of the time. Easter trade coupled with the chronic ghortage of lambs was responsible for the mark of $18 per 100 paid for a choice lot and several small bunches brought the customary $12 to $14 figure, but the sup- ply was small throughout. Hogs hit the $16 mark after fairly steady climbing from the region of $§14 the week before, this price being paid for some choice heavies. Bulk were going between $14 and $15 and hugging the top.™ Dairy cows continued to find ready sale at good prices, being a continuing feature of the livestock situation, al- though few of them are reaching the market.

The grain men figured - that a ‘‘vigorous” prosecution of the war would mean the use of the navy to protect At- lantic shipping lines and facilitate the shipping of wheat to Europe and wheat went up to a new high level at one bound. Throughout the week the war situation was the prominent factor and wheat steadily climbed, the bears, who were making’ desperate efforts to hold down the price, being mainly forgotten. | Along with the war talk goes the belief that the winter wheat belt, due for the first delivery of the 1917 crop before many months, is 70 per cent short of normal and weather unfavorable. As an offset to this the bears got up rumors that there had been some valuable rains in Kansas and Nebraska, that foreign governments have little grain now in this country, and that the United States government probably will follow the precedent set by a.nada. apd put a limit to the prices of grain. Rains in Ohio were said to have occurred with beneficial results to the crop, and that prospects there are unusually bright for this time of the year. MINNEAPOLIS WHEAT FUTURES | May ] .

ADVERTISEMENTS Doctors Stand Amazed at Power of Bon-Opto to Make Weak Eyes Strong---According to Dr. Lewis Guaranteed to Strengthen Eyesight 50 per cent In One Week’s Time in Many Instances A Free Prescription You Can Have Filled and Use at Home Philadelphia, Pa, Victims of eve strain and other eye weaknesses, and those who wear glasses, will be glad to know that according to Dr. Lewis_there is real hope and help for them. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored by this remarkable prescription and many who once wore glasses say they have thrown them away. One man says, after using it: "I was almost blind. Could not see to read at all. Now I can read everything without my glasses and my eyes do not hurt any more. At night they would pain dreadfully. Now they feel fine all the time. It was like a ml‘racle to me.” A lady who used it says: The atmosphere seemed hazy with or wn]wpt glasses, but after using this pre- sceription for 15 days everything seems clear. I can read even fine print witl out glasses.” Another who used it sa “I was bothered with eye strain caused by overworked, tired eyes which induced fierce headaches. I have worn glasses for several years both for distance and work, and without them I could not read my own name on an envelope or the type- writing on the machine before me. "1 can do both now and have discarded my long distance glasses altogether. I can count the fluttering leaves on the trees across the street now, which for several years have looked like a dim green blur to me. 1 cannpt express my joy at what it has done for me.” It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a reason- able time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the troub’e and expense of ever getting glasses. [Xye troubles of many descriptions may e wonderfully benefited by the ues of this 1resceription. Go to any active drug store 2nd get a bottle of Bon- Opto tablets. Drcp one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of a glcss of water and let it dissolve. With 5 liquid bathe the eves two to four times daily. You should notice your eyes clear up perceptibly right from the start and inflammation and red- ness will quickly disappear. If your eyes bother you even-a little it is your duty to take steps to save them now before it is too late. Many hopelessly blind might have saved their sight if they had cared for their eyes in time. Note: Another prominent Phys whom the above ‘article wa said: “Yes, the Bon-Opto pr ription is truly a wonderful eye remedy, Its con- stituent ingredients are well known to eminent eye gpecialists and widely pre- scribed by them. 1 have used it very suc- cessfully in my 'n practice on patients whose eyes W ained through over- 1 ian {o bmitted, gle work or misfit s n highly recommend it in of weak, watery, aching, smarting, itching, burning red lids, blurred vision or for eyes in- flamed from exposure to smoke, sun, dust or wind. It is one of the very few prepa- rations I feel should be kept on hand for regular use in almost every family.” Bon- Opto, referred to above, is not a patent medicine or a secret remedy. It is an ethical preparation, the formula being printed on the package. The manufactur- ers guarantec it to strengthen eyesight 50 per cent in one week's time in many instances or refund the money. It can be obtained from any good druggist and is sold in Fargo by Fout & Porterfield and other druggists. (R PSRN GEEY GRS N R Oen B TEE RN DR (e RN G DN N R BN First Class Cafeteria in Connection.

Farmers’ Banks Would you advise us to start a FARMER’S BANK? This question is frequently asked us. If your banker will not take the Federal Reserve money at three per cent, and loan it to you for three or six months at six per cent—if he does not serve you to the best of his ability—and if there is a real need and room for a successful bank in your locality, then we advise you to start one and get this Iederal Reserve money. There is no reason why the farmers of this state should not have five or six million dollars of this money. You have paid taxes to the government, and Congress intended that the government, through your bank- er; should loan some of the taxes back to you at six per cent. Make a careful investigation, and if you find that there is room for a farmer’s bank in your town, and that it would be supported by the farmers and you are satisfied it will be a financial success, then write the League Exchange. The League Exchange will organize a bank for you without charging you anything for the service, except the actual expense. organized to serve you. The Exchange is your Corporation and it will gladly do this work for you at cost. If you are going to onganize It was a bank in your town, write the League and it will send an experienced banker to aid and advise you; and you can do the work yourselves at very little cost. - Do not pay promoters ten per cent, or any percentage for organizing a bank. The money you pay them is thrown away. the bank. They have no interest in the success of They are interested only money.
