Spring- Farm Work Now the Fea
ture of Greatest Interest -3
to All.
Seeding Will Begin on Monday
Next in Some Advanced
Places.
Oklahoma Reports Winter Wheat
Six to Seven Inches High
and Jointing.
Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, March 29.
The little sunshine this morning staited every
one talking about spring work and has Its effect
upon wheat. KUing temperatures appeared on
the weather map and for the weather to come
Minnesota was down for fair and warmer in the
forecast and warmer weather was also predicted
for Iowa, Nebiaska and the Dakotas. Two
traveling men for Minneapolis line elevator com
panies sent reports saying that seeding will
begin in the Dakotas ne\ week. Their obser
vations covered western North Dakota and a
sandy portion of South Dakota. In the Red
River Talley and on low land generally the work
will not begin so soon, altho a very favorable
start is promised for the entire northwest. The
bulls will have to face this sort of thing from
now on. It is to be expected that all ordinarily
favorable conditions, as good seeding weather or
early completion of the work, will be exagger
ated by the bears. When the wheat begins to
go into the ground the harvest will already be
in sight, to some In a speculative way thls
will have its effect. Someone in Chicago has
figured it out that with 6,000,000 bu long May
wheat held there all the holders will have to do
Is to stand pat. Only Xo. 1 northern and No. 2
hard, says the commentator, can be delivered
and not over 4,000,000 bu contract wheat could
be put in Chicago for May delivery This is
1 harking back to the old talk of a possible
squeeze in Cb.lca.go. It may, be. all rjgnt, but
from the northwest point of view it would ap
pear that anyone who tries to corner May in
Chicago will get more wheat than he can take
care of. A change in the crop promise might
make some bull manipulation possible, but at
present It would appear to be suicidal.
The Northwestern Miller says: "While there
was no snap to trade last week, on the whole
Minneapolis mills seem to have sold an in
creased quantity of flour. It was exceptional
where a mill did not sell its output- But buy
ei^ opposed any advance In prices and It took
1 a.' fight usually- to get business, especially at
lull quotations. Buyers appear to be not yet
satisfied as to values being at low point, and
.the most of them ai taking flour only in lim
ited qualities. Tho shipping directions on
orders earlier placed were reported to be com
lng in more freely, some mills felt the lack of
them. A few good-sized orders for patent were
reported booked during the week, occasional mills
reporting such business."
Local elevator stocks increased by 45,000 bu
for five days. Minneapolis received 293 cars,
against 258, Chicago 4. against 23. and Duluth
72, against 2. Other comparisons were 123 and
88 for Winnipeg, 38.000 bu and 59.000 for Kan
sas City and 43,000 and 45,000 for St Louis.
Primary receipts. 432,000 bu, against 372,000.
Clearances, 232,000 bu.
Cash demand was good with some outside
mills in the market and No. 1 northern moving
at over May.
Rains fell in Texas, Kentucky and other minor
winter wheat states, and the situation generally
Is much changed and very favorable. The
Price Cunent says, "Continued suspension or
delay in agricultural affairs from weather con
ditions, present heavv snows largely absorbed
by ground being beneficially favorable, situation
of wheat crop maintained."
The Market Record presents the following
summary "The receipts of wheat at Minne
apolis and Duluth from the last crop are 111,
163.000 bu. against 93,993,000 bu from the pre
ceding crop Of these receipts a little above
2.000.000 came from states outside of Minnesota
and the Dakotas from the last crop and a little
li'ore than 8 OOO.OOu bu from outside states tne
preceding rear for the same period. After mak
ing these allowances the excess of receipts of
grain of Minnesota and the Dakotas production
at thfse two terminals is about 23,000.000 bu
more fiom the 1905 crop than from the crop of
1904. By adding to the 23.000.000 excess 4,000.-
000 bu more now in country elevators than last
year and 8 000.000 bu more in farmers' hands
than la- jear as shown the government re
volts the last ciop must have been 35,000.000
bu larger than that of 1904 The crop of 1904

woman the greater the ability of the
actress. If one has an aptitude for one
of the arts or sciences, by all means she
should study that art or science. To1
learn as much as possible of everything
should be the chief aim of a dramatic
scholar, for all arts, all professions, all
trades aVd all conditions of life have
their bearing on the art of .acting.
There is no limit to 'the number and
variety of the subjects that may be
studied with advantage, and one never
reaches a point where constant study
ceases to be a necessity.
Purposely, I have avoided until now
mentioning one thing that is extremely
important. I is not a thing that can
be studied it is not even something
that can be defined. In the dramatic
profession, however, it counts, possibly,
more than in any other occupation. I
on readers.
I will put it in this way.
The microbe of success is personal
magnetism.

Showing. The movement was irregular and con
stant reactions went hand in hand with the
advances. Atlantic Coast Line went up 1%,
Northern Pacific and Sugar 1%, and St. Paul,
Great Northern preferred, Louisville & Nashville,
Rock Island preferred, Republic Steel and Pa
cific Mall 1 to 1%. International Pump fell
away 2 and Smelting preferred 1.
The firmness of tbe call money market acted
as a restraint on speculation and prices In the
general list were held back. Special stocks
showed strength. North-Western rose 2, Smelt
ing, Colorado Fuel and American Ice above 1%,
and St. Louis & San Francisco second pre
ferred 1.
Delaware & Hudson lost 1%. Large buying of
Amalgamated Copper carried it up Bonds
were firm at noon.
Speculation became heavy in tone and there
was a decline In prices to the lowest. Over
night losses, however, were mainly fractional and
largely confined to the coal stocks. Northern
Pacific, Great Northern preferred and Consoli
dated Gas fell 1% to 1%. Republic Steel pre
ferred gained a point.
Unexplained selling of Consolidated Gas which
had been free from urgent liquidation for a
long time, unsettled the market and there was
a further decline in values. Consolidated Gas
sagged 4% to 148%. People's Gas yielded 1%
and Reading and Missouri Pacific 1.

SKATING CLUB OF PARIS
Friday Mornings at Palais de GlacA
Moot Elegant runction at tbe Capital.
New York American.
ParisFor some occult reason the
Friday morning exercises of the Paris
Skating club at the Palais de Glacs
have been thronged ever since the ex
ploitation of the upset in the Boni de
Castellane menage. It is this famous
club that was organized by Mrs. John
G. *A. Leishman, wife of the "United
States ambassador to Turkey, and of
all the pretty women who go to the ice
palace on these Friday mornings there
are four who may with certainty be
called the quartet of attractionthe
same being Miss Marion Clarke, Mile,
de Vejola, Mme. Giard de Souze and
Baroness Henri de Rothschild.
Both of the latter women are littto
creatures, but both are very fascinat
ing, and in their trim skating suits
of black are recognized as the most
charming patineuses of Paris.
Another and more prosaic reason for
the unusual attendance at the Skating
club lies n the fact that the winters
of Paris have for years been skateless,
sleighless, disagreeable seasons in
which good healthy open-ait exercises
have been almost an impossibility. It
is on record tliat not since 1879 have
sleighs been seen on- the streets of
Paris, while for about the same num
ber of years there has been no skating
on the'lake of the Bois de Boulogne.
Except on Friday morning the Palais
de Glace is open to the public, but on
these occasions it is closed rijroroaslv
to the profane, while those who do At
tend have the opportunity of seeing
"elegant Paris" in the most graceful
of all exercises.
THE LIMIT.

"Hold on,"* interrupted the speaker, hefting
his gavel and measuring the distance to the
Missourian's seat "bold on. That's all the
'crats I know bat democrat, and if yon call
that I'll get riled."
Fearing a scene, tbe Missonrian was muzzled,
equipped with blinders and led forth.
