DENIS ANO WHEAT
CROP DISCUSSED
Halvor Steenerson Of Minnesota
Gives Some Illuminating
Figures.

Washington, June 22.-An an.
nouncement Of special interest to the
spring wheat farmers OF the United
States was given out, today, by Hal.
yor S%teenerson, representative in con.
gress from the Ninth Minnesota dis
trict. Mr.. Steenerson's statement
shows that the Democratic tariff law
has cut the prices of spring wheat by
nearly the amount of the duty which
the Republican tariff law had i'm
posed.
Important statement.
The Importance OF the statement to
spring wheat growers may be seen in
the fact that Mr.. Steenerson first oh.
tanned the daily wheat quotations in
six Of the big wheat markets of the
country, Minneapolis, Duluth, Chica.
st. Louis, New York and Kansas
City, and also In Winnipeg for a per.
Tod three months each year for -four
years. The months arc October, No
ye,nber and December, and the years
are from 1910 to 1913, inclusive.
Tariff Increased Price.
These quotations the Minnesota re-
preventative submitted to the depart.
ment ~ Commerce and Labor, which
computed the averages for each year.
These averages, which may be regard
ed as official. show t.lat the duty I'M
der the Republican tariff law increas-
ed the price which the spring wheat
farmer received for his product by
nearly the amount of the duty. al
though there have been fluctuations,
according to variation In the suppN
and demand" says MI. Stevenson,
"there is No. other way, generally
speaking, to explain these. price tables
than upon the theory that the duty
increased the price that the spring
wheat farmer received for his prod.
.uct."
Has Not Made Living Cheaper.
Mr.. Steeners0n's reasons for going
SO thoroughly into the subject Is be.
cause Of the continued debates In
congress relative to tariff duties and
prices. In these debates, 1t has been
emphasized by Democratic orators
that the lowering or removal OF duty
on foreign products under the Under.
wood law has not reduced or tended
to reduce farm prices of these prod
ucts in the United States. The Dem
ocrats have appeared in some cases
to have the best of this argument,
since they have asked ''how could q
man buy wheat In Minneapolis and
export 1t to Liverpool unless the Liv-
erpool price was higher by twenty
five cents a bushel, representing the
cost of transportation, handling and

lag. Mr.. Armstrong has asked Mr..
Guy Nichalls, and Mr.. e. F. Gianaini,
OF the New York Athletic Club, to as.
sist him in the active coaching and
training. Yale will aot row the stroke
used In recent years.
Yale Eislat Was Last.
Under the coaching of Nichalls and
Giannini the winter and spring train
ing routine moved smoothly until the
Yale eight finished last in the tri-
angular regatta against Cornell ana
Princeton en- Cayuga Lake, Ithaca,
May %. Cornell led Princeton by a
length at the finish while the Tiger
oarsmen swept home four lengths
ahead Of the Blue in a two-mile q
Friction followed among the Yale
coaches as a result of the showing,
but matters were adjusted to, the sat
isfaction Of all and improvement in
the rowing has been marked during
the past few weeks. Since the crews
have been quartered at Gales Ferry
the varsity has had several time
trials covering the four-mile course
just under or over twenty minutes.
The Preliminary Race.
Harvard's preliminary races were as
unsuccessful as that of the Eli oars
men. On April 25th the United States
Naval Academy eight defeated the
Crimson first crew by. one-half length
Over q mile and five.sixteenths

time being 6 minutes 43 seconds.
Just q month later Cornell defeated
Harvard on the Charles River Basin
ut Boston by a little over aflength In
q mile and Seyen-eightias a c in 3
minutes 80 and three.fifths seconds.
Harvard spurted throughout the entire
race but could not quite hold the Cor
nell crew despite the effort which left
thu Crimson oarsmens exhausted at
the finish.
Second Crew Successful.
Better success attended the efforts
Of the Harvard second crew which
will meet q Yale eight In place Of the
varsity four race Of the previous
years. This combination, which is
entered to row in the English Henley
July IA, defeated the Naval Academy
second eight and won two races in
one day at the American Henley at
Philadelphia on May 16. Many x
.perts declare that thers Is little din
ference in the ability Of the Harvard
varsity and second Fights and the fact
that the second crew defeated at
Philadelphia the Union Boat Club
eight. composed Of former Harvard
oarsmen who are also entered for the
English Henley, makes this shell q
stro2g ifayorite over the Yale second
crew for tomorrow's race.

ing, with the exception of the Har-
ward second crew, which sails for Lon
don on Saturday, and the shells and
sweeps stored for another year.
~ Although the Harvard rowing star
has been in the ascent during the
past few years the history Of the dual
regatta shows that so far % the var.
sity races are concerned the rival uni.
versities are evenly matched. Forty
seven races have been rowed since
the first crews met on Lake Wilni-
piseogee on August 3, 1852. Today
the score stands Harvard "a; Yale %.
The advantage a in cycles, how
ever, for after an even break between
1852 and 1866, Harvard won eight
races out Of nine rowed between 1866
a1d 1879. The six races between 1880
and 1926 were evenly divided between
the years 18S6.19O7. Beginning In
1903 Harvard swung to the front and
today has six consecutive victories to
her credit, tying the record made by
Yale between the years 190O-1905. To
Yale goes the record Of the fastest
time for the four.mile course made by
the 1883 crew which rowed the dis
tango in 20 minutes and 10 seconds.

HOW TO GET STRENGTH

after any sickness Is purely 9 matter Of
n%ourishment, whether the attack was
an ordinary cold or severe illness; the
weakened forces cannot repulse disease
germs, and this is why a relapse IS 50
often fatal or why chronic weakness often
follows sickness.
Restoring strength to millions OF people
for forty wears has proven the real need
for taking SCOTS Emulsion after any
sickness: nothing equals it-nothing
compares with It. It's pure, medicinal
nourishment, free from alcohol or opiates,
promptly creates rich blood, strengthens
the nerves and 1ungst to avert tuberculosis

SCHOOL CHILDREN AID
FIGHTING FOREST FIRES
State Forester Would Have the Public
Schools Assist Him in Keeping
Down the Fire loss.

State Forester and Fire Warden E.
w. Ferris is seeking the cooperation
Of school children, campers and the
public generally, to assist his depart
ment in keeping down the fire loss
during the coming season. Teachers
in all public schools have been asked
to take up, once each week, with the
pupils. the necessity of guarding
against forest fires, and thus protecting
the state timber that is one of the
main assets Of the public school sys-
tenn. Mrs. Josephine Preston. state
superintendent Of public instruction, is
supporting this movement.
During the past year losses have
been kept to the minimum and only
one-fourth Of the $4,000 appropria-
ton has been expended. Mr.. Ferris
asks the taxpayers to assist him to con-
tinue this record, pointing out that the
destruction Of timber by FIRE necessi-
tates additional tax burdens on remain
ing property.
