According to the best posted grain
growers here, Chase county farmers
are this season holding larger guam
titles of grain th&n they have done in
good many years before. Good
crops have made grain prices fall and
rather than sell at what they consider
is below actual worth, they are stor-
ing as much of their own crops as pos
sible In some sections of the country,
it is said, there is not single empty
bin and that many farmers are still
building granaries to take care of their
