Private crop estimators released re ports last week which generally in dicated Improvement in the winter wheat crop but poorer prospects for spring wheat The net result of these early estimates which may prove high or low according to their present reliability and the effect of growing conditions during the rest of the season, is an indicated crop in the United States of 100,000,000 to 105.000.000 bushels of all wheat less than last year. As has been brought out in previous reports, the greatest shortage will be in soft red winter wheat, a type which is low in protein and is in demand for making biscuit and pastry flour. Harvesting is expected to begin in a few days in the southwest which with improved crop conditions in Europe tended to weaken both do mestic and export markets last week. . Some decline was noted in barley under influence of less de mand and improved new crop con ditions. Cash corn was firm al though new crop conditions are more favorable. HAY, FEED AND PASTURES. Hay markets generally are improv ed because of the low condition of the new hay crop and the lateness of pastures, but on the Pacific coast demand for old hay is not keen. New alfalfa was being contracted at Yakima at $12.50 to growers the latter part of May. POTATOES. Shipments of pota toes continue to exceed normal re quirements. The movement of new potatoes now exceeds that of old stock. There is prospect of an in creased supply of early and second oarly potatoes judging from acreage and present condition of the fields. No definite information is yet avail able regarding the probable produc tion of late potatoes other than that growers declared intentions to plant about 12 per cent more acres; there was a large supply of certified seed. and the trend is toward greater yields per acre because of better practices and concentration bf po tato production in the hands of specialists operating in most favor ed districts. Altogether the out look for potato growers does not appear too favorable, unless these acreage Intentions have been changed or growing conditions lim it production. DAIRY PRODUCTS. Pacific Coast butter markets were firm to higher last week, with prices a cent or two above the level of a year ago. Eastern markets were somewhat unsettled with storage operators still slow in taking hold at present prices until more is known about the volume of production which will come from improved pastures. In the meantime, stocks in storage are now materially below a year ago in contrast to the situation on May 1 and production, while In. creasing rapidly during the last two eeks, is still short of last year at this date. Supplies of medium and lower grades are more liberal than good butter and the latter is mov ing most freely in the markets. Copenhagen butter markets have declined somewhat recently, the quotation on May 21 being 34.6 cents against 36.1 cents a week earlier. LIVESTOCK. The first spring lambs from the northwest arrived in eastern markets last week, sell ing at highest prices since war days. However, only choice lambs brought the fancy prices. Cold spring weath er has delayed lamb marketing this season so that large runs are not expected before the middle of June or later. RABIES. What Pasteur's experiments have done for man's protection against mad dogs": Before the days of Pasteur the bite of a mad dog meant probable death. In 1885, while experiments on rab bits were still in an early stage, a little Alsatian boy, Joseph Meister, was brought into Pasteur's labor atory. This child had been attacked by a rabid dog and the wounds on his legs, thighs and hands had been cauterized not at once by a red hot iron, but by carbolic acid, twelve hours afterwards. Pasteur hesitated to apply a treat ment which was not yet fully estab lished by experiments. Persuaded finally, he performed a series of inoculations over a period of ten days. Each time he injected a sub stance more virulent than the last OILY"" stays OILY!

The material contained In the last Injection, when tested on a rabbit that was not protected by anti-rabic inocu lation, was Strang enough to cause hydrophobia after only seven days incubation. Its injection was a sure test of the immunity established by the treatment The little boy's life was saved. Since then Pasteur treatments have been given successfully to thousands of people. The value of the treatments depends to some ex tent upon a prompt diagnosis of the disease. We must therefore con tinue to work toward the elimina tion of rabies in the dogs themselves. Anti-rabic vaccines for the pro tection of dogs have been developed, but so far the Immunity they con fer is of relatively short duration. Experiments on animals now going on in scienitflc laboratories encour age us to believe that eventually there will be prepared a vaccine ! that can effectively protect thein against rabies. 'If you are bitten by a dog: (1) Report at once to the Health depratment (2) Do not kill the dog unless this is necessary. Lock him up and examine him daily for symptoms of rabies. (3) If the dog that has bitten you cannot be found, and the cir cumstances of the biting war rant the assumption that the dog was probably rabid, apply to your physician or the Board ' of Health for the Pasteur treatment (4) If the dog remains well for a period of ten days after the bite, you do not need the Pas teur treatment PHONE or leave orders at Phelps Grocery Co.
