FARMERS MAY GAIN
BY HOLDING WHEAT
News Indicates Great Export Busi-
ness in Sight; Many Ships Char.
tered.

That northwest farmers can make
money by holding their wheat is the
view of men very well informed on
the situation and in position to judge
the market both from the standpoint
of the buyer and seller. 1t is assert
ed the present lull in the market is
due almost if not entirely to artifi-
cial causes. When the market
slumped two days ago it was an
nounced the change was due to ru-
mors of peace movement in Europe.
1t is evident, however, that peace is
far away.
Other elements in the situation
that indicate high prices are the fact
of short world yield in wheat, and
the fact it is generally regarded that
war will make it impossible for Eu-
rope to raise crop next year.
From confidential sources it is re-
ported that the heads of big buying
concerns expect wheat prices TO soar
higher but would like If possible to
cause uneasiness among farmers so
as to get them in a mood to sell. That
their move has in part been success
ful is shown by the fact farmers to-
day have been inquiring in vain for
prices and showing some anxiety.
OF much significance in connection
with the present status of the mar
ket is the East Oregonian's special re-
port from Portland today telling OF
record breaking contracts having been
made for the exporting of wheat to
England. The story recites that many
ships have been chartered and that
the business promises to be the heav
lest eve rknown here. The report al
so declares that Europe will need all
the surplus wheat of America

lost and expressed the opinion that
all danger TO Paris is over.
II was his belief that by sending the

had changed the entire situation. BY
this move the allies have been given
