SCARCITY OF SEED.
Rock Island Agricultural Expert IN
Topeka on a Hunt.

There is a scarcity Of seed for cereal
crops all the way from Nebraska to
Texas, according to H. NJ. Cottrell. agri-
cultural commissioner and immigration
agent for the Rock Island system, who
together with E. G.. Bennett, irrigation
expert for the railway, was in Topeka to-
day.
Mr.. Cottrell is looking for seed. There
is plenty Of grain to be had but not the
kind that will bring the best results. This
Is due to the unprecedented drought OF
the summer season of 1913.
There Is good corn seed in small
pockets in Kansas" said Mr.. Cottrell,
but the supply is extremely limited"
The great trouble at the present time is
that the farmers did not take the trouble
to select their seed at the time the crops
were harvested. thinking that they would
be able to procure a good supply. In the
case Of kafir and other sorghums the
birds have devoured large amount OF
good seed.
The Rock Island man dropped in al
the office of the Kansas Farmer this
morning to get information as to where
seed supplies may be obtained

Member OF Grocers' Committee Ex-
plains High Cost of Living.

Chicago, Jan. 7.-Blame for the high
cost of living was today placed on the
consumer by an official of the Retail
Grocers' National association. the ex-
ecutive committee of which is meeting
in Chicago. ~
Did you ever hear a foreigner cry
ing about the high cost OF living?' de-
manded Sol Westerfleld, chairman of
the trade relation committee of the
association. You did not. 1t is the
American or the very much American
lied foreigner. who does the shouting.
Your real foreigner-and he is to be
found in practically all neighborhoods-
may be great meat eater; but when
meat is high he cuts down his supply.
No, not on his quality but on his sup
ply. He is thrifty body and after a
few years of thrift Of that sort what
happens?
THAT foreigner owns row of houses,
occupied by a lot Of ar1stocratic Amer
leans, who want what they want when
they want it.
These Americans call up the corner
grocer six or seven times day and
order the best of everything. Once a
month they stroll over to their land
lord and hand over their rent for the
next 80 days. That's the answer"
