The
movement 13
still marked by much Irregularity
and results In some' Quarters have
, not met expectations but the main
trend is npward. Nothwlthstand-
ins price uncertainties, demand
for steel, especially from the rail
roads is larger; pig iron output
rose ten per cent in September;
the textile traders are recovering
gradually and dealings in hides
and leather have broadened fur
ther. These are some of the
concrete evidence of revival and
they are supplemented by another
weekly statement of freight car
loadings which shows conclusively
there is a notably heavy distribu
tion of merchandise. Bank clear
ings moreover are unsually largs
with a gain this week of 7 per
cent over last year's figures and a
new monthly ; total for this year
has been reached in a number of
commercial failures.
"Weekly bank clearings $8,318,
953,000." !

He ware! Cheap' Merchandise, that is merchandise
of -unknown and poor quality is the direct cause of many
ailments and much sickness in these days. Truly the
vitality of a nation is built on its pure food consumed.
In the great cry of economy, thousands are making the
awful mistake, that cheapness is the beacon fight in
stearing for success. Listen! Quality cost something to
produce. Quality will save you money' but you never
will be able to purchase qualHy by hunting the cheapest.
Merchants have to ransack the cheapest markets to fill
this kind of trade. Beware! ,

CHICAGO, Oct. 3. Big selling
to realize .profits, overbalanced the
grain market today, and brought
about a setback . after, an exciting
advance that upset numeroujs high
price records. On today's pinnacle.
wheat to be delivered next : May
was worth $1.53 7-8 a bushel.
Closing prices for. wheat were un
settled at half net gain, December
$1.45 5-8 to $1.45 3-4 and May
$1.49 5-8 to $1.50. Corn finished
1 7-8 2 5-Sc down, oats 1-2
1 5-8c off, and provisions varying
from 22c drop to 35c gain.
Wild rushes to the buying side
of J the wheat .market . took place
immediately on the opening ot
business and appeared to be large
ly a result of new estimates of the
world supply indicating 54,000.-
000 bushels less of wheat avail
able than a month ago. Besides
unofficial figures which were cur
rent put the total world supply
on October 1 at .only 3, 056, 000,
000 bushels as against 4,430,000 -000
bushels the corresponding day
in 1923. With fresh export buy
ing that ran up to 1,000,000 bush
els of wheat today and 500,000
bushels ot rye, the markets climb
ed rapidly until wheat .showed
2 5-8 and rye exactly 5c a bushel
advance.
Tumbling of prices ensued when
a battle royal in the wheat pit
demonstrated that for at least the
time being, the volume of .selling
had broadened to an extent which
the buying power, although of ex
traordinary iorce, was insufficient
to meet. Reports telling of en
larged domestic acreage of winter
wheat being seeded were current
and foreign crop advices were re ceived
making the outlook appear
somewhat more two sided than
has recently been the case. The
undertone at the last was by no
means heavy, but on the other
hand, the price level waa about
lowest of the day.
. Corn and oats swayed with
wheat, corn being also ' weakened
by summer like weather.
Hogs at the highest prices in
two years lifted the provislou
market but the effect was later
more or less offset by the1 fall of
grain.
