Wheat the Least Profitable.

These figures show that both relatively
and intrinsically wheat is the cheapest
and least profitable of all our farm pro-
ducts. And this accounts for the fact,
well known to all, that in these portions
of our state where little wheat is raised
and where dairy, diversified and mixed
farming prevails, there is far higher de-
gree Of wealth and prosperity prevailing
than in those sections of the state where
our farmers confine themselves to wheat
raising. It has been the fashion of windy
and reckless reformers In the past, and I
presume it is still the fashion among these
men, to insinuate and charge that our
farmers receive much less for their wheat
here than the foreign markets warrant,
and that large and unreasonable margin
Of profit is absorbed by the middle man or
exporter, and hence comes the exceedingly
low price. Those who have at all been
versed in the subject, have known and al
ways maintained that these charges and
insinuations have been unfounded and
false. Fortunately, proof positive is now
at hand.
The legislature Of 1893 directed the
board OF railroad and warehouse COM
