GERMAN WAR GRAIN
 ORGANIZATION WILL
 BE DONE AWAY WITH
Prussia Seeks Better Way in Which the Harvest Can Be Handled During Coming Year and Makes Preparations.

BERLIN, July 21-The War Grain Company, which the last six months has had charge of the organization and purchase of food supplies in Prus- sia is to disappear shortly It will be superseded by a central body act ing under the direction of the Imper- ial government and composed of equal numbers of producers and consumers. The main purpose is to improve the economic war machinery during the next harvest year especially as rel gards the fixing of maximum prices and the control of the food supply.
 The closing sessions of the Prussian Diet which adjourned on June 24. were devoted to economical problems. Extended reports were presented by a special committee which has been considering the matter from all points of view, and the Diet endorsed the committees various recommendations.
 The German government is now pre- pairing to establish a systematic con trol of prices of all goods necessary to the conduct of war, taking all mat ters of this kind out of the hands of the individual states. Practically all raw materials and half-dnished goods are already liable to condscation, but the machinery for regulating prices
 is inadequate and it is necessary to establish some adequate means of checking systematic eQorts to fore prices upwards This is to be done through a central Court of Arbitration
 which is to settle all questions con- corning the value of goods. While it is admitted that war prices must . inevitably be higher than peace prices the Court will settle exactly what a. mount of profit is permissible.
 One of the reports presented to the Prussian Diet by its special committee on the economic outlook had to do with the industrial situation It em- phasized the importance of coal and ] iron production as decisive means of eXerting political influence. Germany it was explained, was able by drawing ] on the Belgium supply of coal. to pre- vent her neutral neighbors from be- coming entirely dependent on England Coal moreover is the foundation of the manufacture of explosives, accord 1 ing to the report, and in many ways serves the most yotal needs of the navy
 The iron industry is equally impor. tant according to the committee. Since the beginning Of the war the
 production of iron ore has been in-
 creased by about one million tons a month and the manufacture of finish ed iron and steel has been doubled.
 But even with this increase there is no excess of these products, "for the manufacture of shells has been larger than anyone dreamed possible before the war" But, in the words of the report "it has been proved that we can supply all the labor that is nee | essary without in any way diminishing the strength of the army. It has also | been proved that Germany can get over all the difficulties caused by the interruption of importations of raw materials, and we are confident that Germany will emerge from the war both economically and politically more independent and stronger than ever before"

Financial Resources Reduced to Marked Degree While ExpenS- eS Soar on; Loss Attributed to Absence of Salons.

An interesting basis for comparison of financial conditions as eXistant under open liquor conditions and pro hibiton, is afforded by a study of the Pima county budget which has just been published. The figures given in. dicate a considerable deterioration of financial resources under the prohibi ton regime
 While the budget of Pima county indicates an increase of S33,OOO, esti mates show the receipts from outside sources are reduced S42,0OO, owing to absence of saloons The increase thus made in the amount fixed for assess ment amounts to 2S per cent

COLORADO
FARMS
Crop Payment Plan
One Crop Gets Deed

If you produce a single crop of wheat
on the land that we offer for sale in
Eastern Colorado, we will accept it in
full for all deferred payments due US on
the purchase price. Or you may pro-
duce two crops and give US half of each
and we will give you warranty deed. If
you cannot move to the land now and
plant the crop, you may contract with
US to do the work for you and pay US
the actual cost price.
We can produce inst as big crops ev-
cry year IN Eastern Colorado without
irrigation or fertilization as are now
produced on the high-priced lands in
iowa, Illinois or Indiana Eastern Colo
radO lands can be purchased for a price
per acre that is little more than the an
nual interest charge on the acreage
value of the best farms in middle ives
tern states. The cash payment per
year required to buy an Eastern Colo
radO farm IS little more land In many
cases 1t IS actually less) than the annual
cash acreage rental now paid by tenants
TO owners of farm lands in Illinois and
the tenant has no hope of ever being
able to buy the Illinois farm. But he
can become the owner of a Colorado
farm, and pay no more annually than
ne IS now paying for rent alone.
The farms that we offer for sale are
level or gently rolling prairie, situated
from half mile to sixteen miles from
railroads and small towns. The dis
lance from town determines the price.
The quality of the land is all the same
rich brown chocolate loan soil, very
deep ane easily titled. No stones,
stumps or swamps. Corn yields from
80 to go bushels per acre; wheat from
20 to so bushels; oats from 50 to so
bushels; barley from 40 to 20 bushels;
rye from 20 to 35 bushels; potatoes from
80 to 200 bushels; alfalfa, to tons;
sudan grass from to tons; broom
corn, one-third ton; beans, 600 to l ZOO
pounds. Other crops successfully grown
are kaffir, feterita, milo maize, beets,
cabbage and onions. Everything has
an instant market when hauled to town.
Creameries pay cash forsmilk.
The land is only six or seven hours
from Denver and only overnight from
the great markets of Kansas City and
Omaha. The climate of Colorado is I'M
surpassed. The summers are cool, the
winters mild. Domestic water IS found
IN abundance and is of purest quality.
Fuel, lumber and cement are cheap.
Taxes are low; only about S40.0 90 per
square mile. Roads are excellent.
You can buy farm on the regular
terms of one-third down and balance in
three to five equal annual installments
anu hSSP dn IuS-CAOPS lOOISSlAs VI we
will contract to plant crops for you and
turn all the proceeds over to you. We
have some farms for sale on ten years
time. A few farms are improved. If
you would like to own one of these
Colorado farms we can show you how
to get it. Prices will be double IN very
short time. Now is the time to buy.

amazing things with your own eyes. A
