SOME HIGH WHEAT PRICES.
The Highest Price Ever Reached wa
-. go per Bushel in 1912.

The Highest Price Ever Reached was
So go per BusheI in 1912.
Wheat at 50 a bushel seems re-
markable, in view of the positive as
sertiOns made year ago that dollar
wheat would never again be realiz-
ed in this country" says the COun-
try Gentleman. But even this high
figure does not represent some of
the war prices. or famine and corn
err prices that have prevailed in the
past. In August Of 1912 wheat
reached the remarkable price of
So 60 bushel-the highest on rec
ord. This was due to the failure of
the English crop and to the prohibit
tive tariff on cereals at that date.
Fluctuations in the prices OF wheat
were violent in those days, before
crop statisticians had developed
their science of forecasting the flu
ture. In August of 1910 wheat sold
in England at $500 a bushel, and the
following June it fell to $3.50; then it
advanced sharply to SO. so a bushel in
August OF 1912 and dropped to $3.50
in 1918. In 1865 we had period of
violent fluctuations in wheat prices.
Early in the year cash wheat sold
in Chicago at II cents a bushel, but
in November it was selling at $2.03 a
bushel. Following this came the
celebrated corner in wheat
which forced the price up to so So
by May /. This is the highest level
reached in this country in modern
times Several high levels, how
ever, have been touched by wheat
since then, but they were caused
chiefly by spectators who corner
ed the market and gave an artifl-
cial value to the cereal. In August,
1872, wheat sold IN Chicago at $l6l,
and by November it was down to
Sl.0l. In 1887 an attempt was made
to corner the wheat market, and
when cash wheat was selling at 50
cents it was freely predicted that so
wheat would be reached inside Of
three months, but the syndicate of
spectators had not made good cal
culations. The stocks in the coun-
try were much larger than they an
ticipated, and wheat poured in from
every quarter. On June 10 the
corner collapsed and in three hours
wheat dropped from 90 ga to " 4
cents a bushel. In 1898 spectators
cornered the market successfully
and forced the price Of wheat up
from II cents in April to 50 a bushel
on September 3d."

ADULTERATED FLOUR.

1t Has Become One of the Evils of the
Day.
One of the provisions of the war
revenue bill, which is pending in
Congress, requires that every barrel
of adulterated or "mixed" -four shall
be stamped with 4 cent stamp and
plainly branded "miXed flour"
There have been several measures
in reduced requiring that mixed
-four shall be specifically branded,
and imposing penalty for any dis
regard of the law. Legislation to
compel honest branding of flour is
greatly needed. Not only should
congress pass law to this effect,
but every State should have a law
compelling the proper branding of
-four, lard and eve'y other food
product. The people should be pro-
tected from the dishonesty which
decpives them and imposes upon
them adultecated foods under lying
brands. The manufacturer who
sells an adulterated article of food
for pure article is a cheat, and
none who cheat the public by the
use of false brands should be allowed
to pursue the dishonest practice.
In many publications concerning
"miXed" or "spikeed" flour it has
bee n insisted that the authorizations
are not uDwholesOme; that corn
-four is principally used for the pur-
pose, and that the corn is as nutriti-
Gus and wholesome as the wheat.
But there ia evidence to show that
the most deleterious substances are
also used for adulterating flour, and
it follows that if the practice of
adulteration is not interfered with
by the strong arm of the law, the
public will be constantly imposed
upon to their hurt. In the senate
the other day Senator Mason read a
confidential circular letter from a
North Carolina firm, addressed to a
Pennsylvania milling company, Of
fering a substance called "miner'
aline" as the greatest existing dis
covery" for cheapening flour. An
analysis of the sample sent shows
that this "mineraline" is ground
clay, 50 per cent. of which is in
soluble even by acid,-Nashvillt
