The day of high.priced wheat, as a per
manent thing, says the Cincinnati Price
Current, has passed by. Nothing but ar
exceptional and world wide loss of crop!
can give high.prlccd wheat again for any
length of time When wheat struck fft,
cents in Chicago, IN 1894, it probably
struck bed rock, because it reached tn,
same price per pound, practically, a
corn, oats and barley, and thus went into
the great feed-bln Of the world, whlcf
absorbs ten bushels for live stock where
one only is consumed BY the human fam
lily. Whenever wheat declines to 4(
cents in the country west Of tho Missls
sippi river, 1t being superior to any othel
grain for animal food, it will 90 tc
market on foot, as corn has done for tn,
last quarter OF century.
Editor Dunlap says in his paper, tn,
Valley City Times. Record: While in Bis
marck. recently, the writer had a very
interesting conversation with Oscar II
Will, the tree and seed man, who in
formed us that the area Of corn to b.
planted IN different parts of the state
this year will be largely increased and
that his sales of seed corn would be
larger than ever. Mr.. Will said that
many of those who had intended saving
their own seed would be compelled to
buy, for the reason that the seed corr
had been hung up in grauary along.
side Of wheat bins. and the sweating pro.
cess of the latter grain will kill the germ
Of corn iu less than sixty days. lfany
Barnes county farmers have hung thei,
seed corn IN their granaries, they should
begin testing it now to see whether OF
not it will grow.
