BLUESTEM WHEAT
S
I
With one dollar per bushel being
offered for bluestem wheat and 95
cents being offered for club, the local
grain market is the best that it has
been sinvce the opening of the present
harvest, season. That it will go still
higher before the next harvest season
la 'Cnfi'lf ntly believed by those far
mers who are still holding.
The only difficulty 8t tho present
time is the fact that there Is tto blue
stem wheat left In the country arid
none whatever being offered for sale.
The quantity of club remaining In the
hands of the farmers Is also limited
and those who have It, for the most
part, say they will have one dollar for
It or hold until spring.
One of the largest sales made re
cently was that of W. W. Harrah, who
sold 7000 bushels at 90 cents. This
is the price now Being offered by the
local buyrrs, while It is understood
that the Walters mill offered 92
cents for one lot of club wheat and
95 for another. Since the local mills
have shown a disposition to go so
much stronger than the grain buyers,
it Is probable ,the" greater part of the
wheat remaining in the hands of the
growers will rCTnaln at home.

YOUNG SOMNAMBULIST
HAS MURDEROUS INSTINCTS
Kansas City, Mo What is the
strllnge impulse mat leads Walter
Schoonover, 1 1 years old, one of tho
kindest and most devoted boys to his
parents In his waking hours, to de
sire to murder them when darkness
falls.
For months his parents who live In
Kansas City, Kan., have attempted
to determine the cause of the strange
oilment that displays itself only by
night, but which makes of him a veri
table fiend. Fading, they have ap
pealed to Judge Van Prather to help
them solve the case.
Several times of late the boy's
father and Ktopmother have been
awakened to find the youth stooping
over them with a hammer drawn,
prepared to dash out their brains. It
Is with the greatest difficulty that
they restrain him from injuring them.
When awakened, he returns to bed
peaceably.
The boy stoutly maintains that he
loves everybody and does not know
why he has such homicidal impulses.
The court ordered him sent to a sanitarium.
The only way to keep some men
straight is to give them a big load to
carry,
