Special to The Journal
Fargo, N. D., Sept. 27-There is one phase of
the low grade wheat situation that worries the
farmers. On account of the rust much of the
wheat is low grade and under weight. Below
No 3 grade the local milers seem to have great
difficulty in getting returns, and many of therl
have decided not to purchase anything lower
than No. 3 for their own A lot of the low
grade wheat can be used in the big milling cen
tiers for mixing. but the action of the millers in
this tie is having rather depressing effect
on the farmers -. 90.
Another feature that has developed recently
Is the goodly amount of old 1903 wheat still
held In the state 1t hobs up in most unexpected
places and results surprising in many in
stances. There is an effort, wherever the old
wheat be located, to have it held for seed
purposes next spring, as it will be better than
the wheat generally grown this year. The mill
ers making vigorous, effort to secure all
that is offered and little If any, is being shipped
from the state. -Ht 2. -, T.. ~
