free-trade in what he produces.

Importing Corn In Our

Chicago received a carload of
corn from Argentina last Friday.
Think of it! Chicago, the me
tropolis of the Mississippi Valley,
Where corn is king, importing
corn from the extreme of South
America, as if Illinois corn rails
ers had lost their knowledge of
how to grow corn! This is the
very irony of free-trade's sacri-
flee of American farmers. 1t is
reported that Argentina has an
export surplus of 25O, 600, 900 bu,
shells of corn this last year. The
harvest is now on in that coun-
try.
Since free trade went into eff.
sect the United States has i'm, |
ported 100000 bushels from Ar |
;entina in competition with our
Wn farmers, thereby lowering
ne price on all corn in America.
