DROP IN WHEAT CAUSES
REGRET AMONG FARMERS
GROWERS NOW WISH THEY HAD
SOLD AT THE SIPS MARK
Decline in Market and Prospect of a
Bumper Crop This Year May Not
See Price So High Again

Those who have been holding their
wheat for fancy price are likely
regreting they did not sell when the
price was in the $1.25 neighborhood,
as the present big drop in price is
likely to hold somewhere about the
dollar mark. according to the judg-
ment of most dealers though there
is nothing more uncertain than mar
ket prices. The fall in price has
caused a sharp drop in the price of
flour, and city bakers have already
increased the size of loaves of bread,
which means the saving of thousands
of dollars to the poor.
1t is confidently predicted that the
high cost of food has reached its
limit, and that meats and other food
products must fall Hogs have
fallen over S100 a hundred, this
week, in the Chicago market. Sew
eraI reasons are assigned for the fall
ing off in wheat prices. Chief among
them is lack of export demand, due
to fairly good crops having been har-
vested in other wheat growing
countries. The Argentine crop is up
to the average. The India crop is
also of fair size. while from Russia
comes the report that its crop is the
largest grown in years. Again the
millers throughout the country in an
ticipation of a shortage and not
wishing to be caught short as they
were in 1909 stocked up early in the
/ season and have had on hand sufficient
wheat to carry them over. Then
too, the prospect for bumper crop
this year have had it's effect on the
market. According to all reports
there is every indication that this
years crop is going to be one of the
best harvested for a long time.
Wheat is not the only food commodity
that has declined in price. Old
! potatoes are lower now than they
have been for several seasons. In
the retail market the ruling prices
range from about SOC bushel up, ac-
cording to quality, but the statement
is made that out West, where great

bill came up for the final reading
and also the budget, Greenbaum and

eral budget, and when Councilman
Lachmund gained the floor and spoke
on making an additional mill levy
to assist in wiping out the $25, 900 de-
ficiency, it was the signal for flow
of language from the councilmen-a
regular flood. Councilman Lachmund
maintained that the deficiency was a
debt that had to be met, and we
might as well meet 1t now-meet 1t
as far as possible Bonding for 1t had
been suggested. he said. but there
was sentiment against 1t among the
people, and he deemed 1t the better
and wiser policy to levy tax OF one
mill, and clear up $4,000.
This brought Mr.. Greenbaum to his
feet with the remark that he was tired
of having insinuations made against
the present administration. He ia
vored bonding, and cited the fact that
Seattle had at one time isued bonds
for the general expenses of the city,
rather than impose heavier tax levy
on the people.
Lachmund Immediately asked the
opinion of City Attorney Corby as to
the bond issue, and Mr.. Corby replied
that. under the law, the city could
not legally issue bonds for current ex-
penses-that the charter, IL that
should be done, must be amended.
Takes Shot at Papers.
Councilman Stoltz followed with a
review OF the whole situation-he
likes to review--and In the course of
it he took a shot at the papers for
having come out in favor OF tax
levy. 1t was only exciting the people
on the subject. and making them adj
erse to 1t. He quoted figures to show
that the levies had been going up
higher and higher each year, and
maintaised that an S-mill levy was
enough for the new administration,
and that the deficit could float. He
also felt as though inslnations had
been made against the present admin
istratlon and was ON hand to resent
them.
Mayor Rodgers Favored Levy.
Mayor Rodgers then took the floor.
He prefaced his talk with the remark
that he did not feel as though any in
sinations had been made against the
present ADMINISTRATORS that he did
not think II was the disposition OF any
of the councilmen or the people to
criticise IL. as II was known that the
money had all been judiciously and
wisely spent. "I do not believe in
borrowing money from Peter TO pay
Paul" he said, "but believs that We
should wipe out as much of the deh-
cheney by a levy now as possible. I
am heartily In support OF one-mill
levy. and would support two. II II was
necessary.
Councilman Carson congratulated
the mayor on his stand, and assured
him that there had been made no In
