The heaviest rain of the season fell
last Saturday night and every rancher
coming into town, no matter from
what part of this county, reports that
the indications point to a bumper
crop. The price of wheat will be
higher this year than it has been for
sometime, for the reason that the
states on the great plains are going
to fall short in their wheat crops and
every report of that section of the
country seems to indicate that the
outlook is more discouraging this week
that it VISA sometime ago Reports
from Europe are not encouraging and
with Canada just seeding, it seems that
good prices are an assured fact. We
might not get dollar bushel but

Dealers and others might we'll be

To agent: Referring to coal short
age as it existed during the past fall
and winter, we wish to call your atten-
ton to the Importance of impressing
upon fuel dealers, consumers and all
others in your town the necessity of
putting in large supply of coal dur
ing the coming summer.
Please take up with your local
newspapers and suggest to them to call
the attention of their readers to
conditions as they existed last year,
urging all concerned to put in stock
of coal early in the season to avoid
conditions as they existed year ago.
"You should use your influence with
coal dealers and other receivers OF
coal to increase their storage capacity
and also urge all mills, factories,
ETC., that are large consumers, to get
in a good supply of coal prior to

Urge receivers when sending in
