Calm down. Pretty Lillian Metzger, at the extreme right, seems to have made the camera man go wrong. The first picture is of a film beauty, Raqucl Torres—it's easy to see where the naughty camera man was looking. Johnny Brown, also of the films, is the only male sufferer in this cameraman's spree. His legs are certainly long enough to reach the ground. The second picture is of a young lady who may have got that way eating at board ing houses.

The new crop continues to make considerable progress and pri 1 vate estimates at the first of Sep ! tember place the crop at 40 million 1 1 0 50 million bushels above the offi 1 cial August 1 estimate. The crop is probably safe from frost damage ra ther generally in Illinoi and soutlsfrn Missouri, Kansas and in the south western states. Some damage from drought has occurred in the central portion of Nebraska. Feeders and in j dustries were the principal buyers in ! the markets and also at interior points. In some points in Kansas and of Nebraska the local supplies are prac tirslly exhausted and old corn was selling at from 85 to 95 cents per in bushel at shipping points. No, 3 yel 3c i ] ow corn was quoted at the close of the week at Chicago at $1.02% to $1.03, at Kansas City 95%c to 97%c, , and Minneapolis 98%c to 99%c. At ; the latter market prices were slightly i lower than a week ago as a result of increased receipts. Notwithstanding the increased oats crop this season the country move m ent has been relatively small and the market recently has developed firmer tone. With farm stocks of old crop co rn an d 0 ats practically ex hausted farmers are apparently keep- 1 j n g a larger percentage of the new j crop oa t s for feed. No. 3 white oats | was selling at the close of the week 1 a t Minneapolis at 3694c to 3794c, an advance of about 1 cent for the week. n,o. 3 white oats was quoted at Chi caff0 a t 39 to 41 cents and at Kansas efty about 40 cents to 41% cents, No. 2 red oats was offered f.o.b. Tex as common points at 48 cents and at Oklahoma shipping points at 45 cents per bushel. The rye market was easier. Re ceipts were somewhat larger but de mand was rather slow, have taken very little rye this season, exports to date totaling only 853,000 bushels compared with about two mil lion bushels for the corresponding period last season. Domestic mills were good buyers of high quality rye, but premiums were somewhat lower than a week ago. No. 2 rye was quo ted at Minneapolis at 2c to 4c over the September price of 89 l-8c. Ros rye was bringing 7 to 9 cents over the September price of 96c. No. 2 western rye for export was quoted f. 0. b. New York at $1.09 per bushel. The barley market was rather weaK although an active demand for good malting grades held cash prices fairly steady at most markets. Increased offerings of native barley in Europe an markets are competing actively with American barley and export de mand is rather slow.

Best malting grades were quoted at the close of the week at Minneapolis at 63 to 6414 cents and at Chicago at 66c to 70c per bushel. Feeding grades were quoted at Min neapolis at 57c to 60c and at Chicago at 6214c to 64c. Special No. 2 bar ley was quoted at Milwaukee at 69c to 72c and at Omaha at 60c per bush el. Exporters were bidding 72c for barley delivered gulf ports. The movement of flax from the northwest increased materially during the week, receipts at Minneapolis to taling 645 cars compared with 245 cars last week. Arrivals at Duluth were small but threshing was pro gressing favorably in that territory. Demand was good and crushers and elevators absorbed the offerings at a a fairly steady price.
