Ia the Matter Of Giving Farmers a
Low Rate on Corn.
NO RATE HAS YET BEEN ANNOUNCED
But Senator Wsyland Is Positive That n
Win Be Satisfactory When

eruoon The Post correspondent met SEN
ator John A. wayland chairman Of the
corn rate committee appointed by a mass
meeting Of the farmers of Robertson and
Milan counties held In Calvert on the eth
instant. Colonel Wayland was asked what
the committee had done toward securing
from the railroads of Texas a special rate
on corn which It was necessary for the
farmers to buy from Northern markets, to
which he replied that the committee had
conferred with the various railroads of the
State, settling out the condition Of the
farmers of tubs section or Texas aud the
present necessity for a low rate on corn.
Colonel Wayland has recently been to Dali

railroads Of Texas to deal literally with
the farmers. and that while no rate has
vet been fixed, he feels certain that the
farmers will get a rate which will enable
them to purchase at a reasonable figure the
necessary corn for next year.
