LATTER SAYS THAT GOVERN
MENT CROP REPORTS OVER
ESTIMATE CONDITIONS.
PRICE not Due TO SCARCITY
SUFFICIENT GRAIN IN AMERICA
TO MAKE BREAD UNTIL THE
NEW CROP.

Washington, April II. - "If we
seek an honest class Of community,
and hesitate to take the words Of the
American farmers, we will not estab-
lish the truth by going to the gam
bIers." This declaration was made
by Secretary Wilson Of the depart
ment of agriculture today, in an an
swer to the criticism Of James a..
Patten Of Chicago. the wheat king" {"
who said the government crop report
over-estimates conditions.
There is sufficient wheat In the
country at normal prices, to make
bread for America up to the time
when the new crop comes in and
those who attempt to keep the prices
up at the present rates, expect to get
their money ont of slse common ness1
ple.''
Z The reporters Of the department OF
agriculture are farmers living on the
farms and know ii anybody knows. A
large majority OF the wheat has left
the hands Of the farmers and a.ficti-
tious price has been created. The
farmers are not beneficiaries and will
plant wheat and next years
crop will be abnormally large. when
the gamblers will not be in the mar
ket and mischief will be done by the
disturbance of the crop season.
To show that the scarcity OF wheat
is not the cause for the abnormal
price. Secretary Wilson showed that
IN 1908, the wheat crop was 665,oOo.-
600 against e34.OOO,OOo for 1907.
