eves in farm storage rather than city storage 1t proposes
make the demand seek the supply instead of the supply
overwhelming the demand 1t knows under the old system,
that when the year around all of the crops consumed
prices made by producers SPECTATORS packers food
trusts and mathematician any reference what it
produce them 1t believes under the system of
contr oiled marketing and price making the farm, that
there will be greater consumption, because prices will

Philadelphia, Pa, Sept. SIT is
stated that the Midvale Steel Com.
pany has a new secret process for
making armor plate that may reyolu-
tionize that industry as well as reduce

has been kept a profound secret, but
a is declared that the plates will
stand every test required and can be
made for perhaps slOO a ton, whereas
the lowest price ever paid before a
at least $500 a ton.
