WHEAT SPECULATIONS WOULD
BE STOPPED BY GROWERS

Hastings, Neb.-Western farmers
and grain growers are preparing to
come to the aid Of the breadeaters
of the big cities and to so shape and
control the process of handling wheat
between the farm and the dining
room that CORNERS" in cereals. such
as the Patten deal, will hereafter be
impossible of manipulation.
No legislation will be created with
which to work these reforms, but the
thousands of grain growers of Ne
braska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Iowa, Min
nesota and the two Dakotas have
banded themselves together and will
put a stop to future manipulations of
this character, according to Theodore
G. Nelson, president of the National
Grain Growers association, whose
headquarters are in this city. The as
sociation was organized less than a
year ago, and already 10000 grow
ers of grain in the Transmississippi
states have signed the articles of
agreement.
The object of the National Grain
Growers association is the control of
the grain from the wheat fields to the
miller, at least, and if possible, right
through to the moment of delivery
from the retail grocer to the kitchen
door. That is not only the main OBJ
ject,but it is the only object, of the
organization.

A-Y-P. STOCK SHOW.
Over $4,000 in Prizes Given at Great
Exposition Stock Show.

Seattle, Wash.-Enough entries
have been promised to insure the
complete success of the livestock
show of the Alaska Yukon Pacific
exposition. The event will be held on
the exposition grounds from Septem-
Der 27 to October 3, inclusive. A
widespread interest has been created
among breeders and dealers through
out the entire United States and Can
ada and several foreign associations
are negotiating with the intention of
sending number of prize winners
across the ocean.
The Canadian government has ap-
propriated $500 for transportation
expenses. and this will be utilized by
the Cattle Breeders Association of
Manitoba in sending several carloads
Of stock to Seattle. The value of live
stock exhibits on the Pacific coast has
been thoroughly demonstrated by the
success following the livestock show
in Portland in 1905. and since that
time, the western sales of two stock
associations in the east have totalled
over S1,OOO,OOO
The official catalogue II the live
stock show will be ready for distri-
button early in May, and this will in
clude all necessary information re-
gardng entries, classification and
awards. Construction work on sheds
stalls paddocks and yards will be
completed long before the opening
exhibit. Thee will be open to exhib-
itors 10 days before the show opens.

Portland--The promise of the
chief Of the United States engineers
that he will recommend $4,000, 900 be
appropriated by congress for the Ce-
lilo canal project at the next session
Of congress, as reported in Yesterdays
dispatches from Washington, means
that the chief has named that amount
in his forthcoming annual report as
desirable for the prosecution of the
canal project
The annual report embodying sum-
maries Of the years work as well as
recommendation for new projects,
Will not be ready until some time in
July, but the fact that the chief of the
department has pledged Senator
Bourne that he will recommend early
completion Of the Cello canal project
is interpreted to mean that the rec
ommendatiOn will be made in the an
nual report soon to be drawn up.
1t is expected here that the chief
will endeavor to have the matter in
corporated in the sundry civil bill and
placed on a continuing contract be-
sis, as there would then be no dan
ger of temporary delays because of
lack of funds when the amounts
available become exhausted.
The exact cost Of the canal has not
been fully estimated. but It is figured
that something like s4,OOO,OOO would
carry it to completion without diff
Guilty. The 100000 that the chief
proposes to recommend would in all
probability make up the deficiency
now in sight.
The Cello canal project is one of
immense importance to the vast in
land empire and the people there are
anxious that no stone be left unturn-
ed in order to get the matter placed
on a col .inuing contract basis at the
earliest possible date. The country is
said to be developing so rapidly that
the water transportation question is
the most vital to that vas section
and keep up with the times no de-
lay can be afforded.
