It waa evident that new .'incentives

waa current that an embargo against
mportatlon of agricultural products
nto the IT. S. had been decided im toy
t-rewuent Harding but ther was no
lonfirmatlon and the moderate upturn
tailed to last Then renewal of mis
givings concerning the Industrial out
look attracted notice. , It was at this
stage that selling ascribed to an e:e
ator Interest weakened the morals o
the bulls and left the market bare of
buying orders except from shorts.
Corn and oats were firmer early with
wheat, but quickly went lower whon
wheat started down grade.
Some export business In lard had
stimulating effect on the provision
market. Besides, fresh pork loins
were selling at the highest price this
year.

" Your Oid rurulture Taken in EM-hangc as Part Payment on Siew.
PARTS March 18. (A. P.) The
French householders are still paying
more than four times the pre-war
prices for the necessities of life, al
though there has been a big decline
in ths cost of thing.
The French government has made
public figures comparing the living
cost in France with those In the TJnl
ted States as given by Bradstreet'a
and for Great Britain, as given by
the Statist. These show that the peak
of the cost of living in all three coun
tries was attained in April, 1920. Tak
ing the prices of 1913 as normal, oi
100 per cent, the prices of necessl
ties In April last year -are given as
E87.5 per. cent in ' France, 225.1 In
the United States' and 313.1 in Great
Britain. ' -
According to the government fi
gures these, percentages, had declined
in. December, las! ia AH. jcr. cent-io
France and 243.5 in Great Britain
The figure for thevtrnited States in
November last 'was given as 147- per
cent. Tha December figures were not
given.'; ;'. ''-"
Most of the French newspapers
find the joy of the reduction in the
coat of living tempered by, knowledge
that it is still more than four times
higher thatt in 1913 and that it is
accentuated by much unemployment
