Vosse Peuss win beg at Toast 14, s Liv wheat failed to Moid Good gains strength at Liverpool and Southern buying ran prices up but support did not last Grain Exchange Winnipeg aug. 13. In the opening minutes or trading tuesday m Orang the wheat Market was fairly Active and prices advanced 2 a to 3vic with Chicago and new York houses lined up on the buying Side but the spurt proved to be temporary and before ninety minutes elapsed prices had Losi. All gains and were fractionally under the previous close. The Market remained Gener ally weak for the remainder of the session with a Dull Ana featureless pit Trade in evidence and closing quotations showed values to be Vic lower to a High for the Day. Unexpected strength at Liverpool was the reason for the Sharp upturn at the Start but it was evident Early. That buying Power in the local mar Ket was very limited and that the Bull forces were not confident of their position. Traders who had Lent support on monday were getting rid of their hold after the Southern buying had spent itself and there was nothing left in the Way of buying orders to take care of the offerings. Pit Trade for the session was not Large and the Market on the whole was very uninteresting. Spreading operations again accounted for a Good portion of the Day s transactions.

So the principal in fluence in the markets at least until the result of Harvest in Europe and North America Are More definitely known will continue to be Parent close adjustment of prospective supplies to actual requirements. If Europe requirements amount to no More than average it is evident tha Over on August first plus tha prospective surplus of North America will be heavily before the new crops of the Southern hemisphere Are available conditions of growing crops in Australia and Argentina will be closely watched therefore. The crop year closed on july 31st, was notable for an entirely hew set of records having been established. From production in the. Prairie provinces., throughout the whole system of marketing and handling to the final carry Over. A few of the figures representing total receipts of Grain during the year Are at country elevators at Interior private and manufacturing elevators bushels at port William port Arthur 774 bushels at Vancouver including new bushels All of which constitute new records. Owing to the unusually Small move ment freight rates both on the great lakes and the Ocean Are strongly in favor of shippers. What Grain is being carried to overseas destinations is in sufficient to fill the space available in liner tonnage and very Low rates have been quoted by owners anxious to by talk stiffening cargoes on the great bakes rates have continued More steady at eight cents per Bushel to Montreal 1% cents to Bay ports and two cents to though occasionally boats have been chartered at cents to Montreal via Erie.

The Western states than on the Western ranges of i1 cent More of their lambs to seven mrs Natlia of age that at seven months their lambs Are from three to six pounds heavier that the ewes give one and a half to two pounds More Wool per fleece which Sells for a higher Price and that their lambs show a better dressing out weight than either Stirop Shires or Cheviot.

Some of these reasons Are their hardiness Freedom from disease and ability to care for themselves without a great Deal of special attention they Are excellent mothers and their Wool production is very High. Prom experiments already made both in the United states Ami Canada it is reasonable to believe that by crossing these Grade ram Bouillet ewes with Good rams More efficient uses of horses in Manitoba by ii. B. Somme held . Manitoba agricultural College one Way to increase profits is to lower the Cost of production. The use of both More efficient horse hitches and larger horse unite will increase the amount of work one Man con do per Day which under conditions such As prevail in Mani Toba where the Cost or Man labor is a major Factor reflects itself in lowered production costs. Farm profits Are determined by the yield per acre selection of most profitable crops and livestock the Bolt openings 3-16 of an Inch. The rope or strap extending from the Bach Down to the draw Cha n or to the Trace of the horse next inside is 6 feet 2 inches in int rvs plus the Large snap which fastens into the draw Chain. This Largo snap is 4v2 inches Ion with Bolt open inv 14 Inch wide and the Cir of pinup is a in the Clear so that h rides easily on a 5-16 draw Chain. Too Small a snap Here will cause disaster As it will not ride freely in o pull on the draw Chain but will stick out straight to the Side it will be easily broken. The tie chains Are the Ordinary Light weight Halter chains 414 feet Long with a snap at each end. They arc attached to the halters of the rear horses and to the race chains of the horses diagonally ahead and Are so adjusted As to length As to re f quire the horses to turn to right or left when the leaders turn. Organization of an old hitch adopt ing the principle of the new or constructing a Complete new is comparatively inexpensive. Any Man who is Handy with tools May construct his own set. Many of the pieces Are Short and May be made from old broken four horse Ovenden and other Timber on the farm for blowing the four and orse hitch tandem is designed for the plow Wagon Wotli trailer and Binder. To hitch horses abreast on plow is not the Best hitch since it Means either consid Erable Side draft or that some of the horses must walk on the slowed land. This hitch also takes considerable of the Side draft away when used of f. Binder. It is a hitch that is much cooler and makes for greater Comfort to the horses than when driven abreast. The five and six horse hitches Are designed primarily for blowing and Are so constructed that Side Dratt is eliminated. The five horse hitch is unique in that to is designed to drive two horses behind and three in front. The Back pair of the five horse hitch Are much More Comfort Able than when three Are hitched be Hind and two in. Front. It is much cooler for the Back horses and pro Vides an excellent place to work in foal Mare or a Green Colt. The eight and twelve horse hitches May be classed As of the larger Type. No doubt the kind of unit that will become More common As time goes on. They Are used on ail types and combinations of implements. They have a wide adaptation and Are used on three and four Bottom plows wide cultivation and seeding machinery and the Combine threshers and har vesters. It is the consensus of opinion that the most satisfactory demonstration can be staged under Field conditions on a farm where the larger simple Are available to hitch to.
