MARKETING WHEAT.
Iown Alliance Advises Western Farm
ers to Hold Their Crops for an
Advance in Price.

The Farmers alliance OF Wapeilo
county. la., has issued the following ad-
vice 10 farmers of :he state as TO hold
ing wheat for higher prices: Within Il
short time Il steady advance up to the
.7J-ccnt mark ut northwestern shipping
points is certain as death; and the farm
ers have the game in their own hands
if they play with little caution. The
reason upon which we base our faith in
the better price for wheat is that when
the crop of 1898 was harvested the
worlds supply from former years was
practically exhausted, and the bread
eating world is now drawing its sup
plies from the crop of the present year.
In other years, and for many years, the
old stocks amounted to hundreds of
millions of bushels when the crop OF
any given year was harvested, and in
reckoning en- the worlds supply the
gamblers counted the old wheat as well
as the new. This year there is no old
low price of wheat during ten years
preceding 1897 was due not to a surplus
in any given year, but TO the accumula-
tions of preceding years. The chief
cause has now temporarily disappeared.
Again, the acute distress which for
three or four years afflicted many farm
ers in the northwest is no longer in
sight. Farmers generally are in better
shape to protect themselves against the
vulgar wiles Of bulls and bears; and
those animals are perfectly aware OF
the situation.

statement that one agricultural organ

bership of 100000 people. When the
difficulty of getting American farmers
together is taken into consideration. the
magnitude of the work accomplished by
the Germans in thus combining seems
marvellous. No class of men on earth
seem to be as difficult to handle in ell
listment under a single banner as
farmers, and yet no people would derive
greater benefits from such unity Of ac-
