I.ale weakness of wheat was a bear-luli factor to corn, with rains In the eastern part of the winter wheat belt having considerable Influence on wheat prices. The, wheat market gave signs of an over-bousht condition, and speculative sellers found support for values lacking. Corn.

The corn market was a big broad affair with prices advancing sharply early on account of bullish construction placed on tha government report as to farm reserves Later, however, prices declined as repldly. and went below the flimli of previous day, nevertheless good support was In evidence on the dips. Country offerings were small, and weather unfavorable for the movement.

Ames, March 9 Iowa dairymen were not quite as vigorous in ihdr campaign to got Tid ot unprofitable dairy rows In February as In juecfding months.j according to the monthly cow testing association report, released today at Iowa Stat college. The 2.091 farmers who are members of the 82 associations reporting culled 471 cows in February compared with 696 in January, 555 in Decembrr and 6fi9 in November.

In the last frw months more cows have been culled by cow testing association members than ever before, probably due to" the high price of beef, in the opinion of Burt Oder-kirk, extension dairyman, who Is In charge of cow testing work In the ftate, Because of the high prices prevailing for beef, dairymen have been culling their cows unusually close and sending many to the butch-rr that might be kept with lower beef prices, he- points out.

Despite starvation runs fat steer values melted away, last week's advance disappearing. Only the better grades saw the downturn, such kinds predominating In the steer run. Heavies lost more than medium weights and long yearlings, the premium recently paid for weight narrowing sharply.

HOGS: Hog values declined 1015r Monday due to the unusually heavy run ing and profit-taking sales and a reac not Join the bureau, according to Mr. McElhinney, Is because they do not investigate the work it Is doing. Most of the criticism of the bureau conducted dairy schools in breeding and feeding, also encouraged and helped organize cow testing associations, which have saved dairymen In Tama county hundreds of dollars in feed alone; organized girls1 and boys' clubs; 'and sponsored home project work for women. It has tested soils and encouraged use of lime. Many carloads will be used In Tama county this year.

The bureau has advised use of legumes in rebuilding soil as well as for hay and forage; co-operated with the stale farm bureau federation in procuring legislation favorable to the farmer and In the reduction of land valuation for taxation, which amounts to $8 less tax on every quarter section In Tama county. Land Coming Mark. Mr. McElhinney Is a firm believer in Iowa land, and thlnkj it will come back when all financial adjustments are made and land again gets In strong hands, with legislation favorable to the farmers. He thinks within five years land values will become stabilized around prewar prices.

Members came to the conclusion they would have either to feed the beans or to market the product themselves with the farmers. Twenty members listed 2,800 bushels of seed for sale. Since Jan. 1, last, the association has marketed 1,200 bushels for them. Demand Is Strong.

"I think there will be a greater demand for soybean seed than last year," County Agent Z. R. Mills, who is assisting with the marketing work, said today. "Orders have been coming In rapidly and our present supply may soon be exhausted. More beans are available, however, since the growers didn't list all that they had, some of them thinking they might have opportunity to do some selling on their own account." All but three bushels of the 1.200 have gone outside of Tama county to other points in Iowa.

Will Krue per, Cresco, Is the largest purchaser. He took 100 bushels. A seed house took one order, paying the same price that farmers give. All orders of 50 bushels or more get a discount of five cents a bushel, Mills said, but the seed companies are not favored any more than the farmer. A St.

Louis company has just Inquired about possibility of getting a carload. Shipments are made f. o. b. Tama county.

The grower delivers to his nearest station. Orders are given by lie association to the growers in the order that their surplus of beans were listed for sale. More rw-ani in Tama. Each of the 20 ha.s received an order and the first six have got their second orders. Black Hawk County Tuberculosis Eradication association was organized at the courthouse here yesterday afternoon.
