Consider Wheat Supply

The English cabinet is considering
important recommendations concerning
the supply of food, particularly wheat,
made by the commission appointed in
June. 1t is intimated the recommend
ations include plans to increase the
home grown supply by guaranteeing to
producers minimum price for their
product.
The Times urges the government to
act promptly, pointing out that farmers
are gathering the present harvest and
must decide on the uses of their land
for the coming season.
Owing to the magnitude of wheat
importation from America, the action
of the cabinet on the recommendations
of the committee will probably have a
considerable bearing on the overseas
trade.
The fact that the government is con-
sdering the wheat question is suggested
as possible reason for the reported
cancellations of orders for wheat from
America by the entente allies.

CONCRETE CONTRACT LET
WEST OF ROUND BUTTE

Bids for large amount of ditch work
west of the Round Butte were opened
at St. Ignatius last Wednesday and the
contract awarded j. q. Hilton was
awarded the contract for the concrete
and the remaining dirt work on all the
lateras around Horte made by Mr..
Markus, and also for about IA miles Of
laterals in Valley View. His contract
is to be completed by April lst, 1916,
and is said to amount to about $50, 600
This will insure water for irrigation
purposes next year in all that section
of country lying between the Round
Butte and the Flathead river, and will
be good news to the farmers Of that
section. The bumper crops raised there
this year, with an ample rainfall, dem
onstrates what the land with the proper
amount of moisture, and with assur-
ances of water in the future, the farm
ers will be encouraged to greater efforts
in the future.
Engineers are now at work running
lines for the laterals in the country
east of the Round Butte and it is
thought these bitches will also be com
pleted early next spring, possibly in
time to provide water for next year s
crop. 1t is also stated that the cor
tract for the construction of a canal
from Mission creek to the Agency will
| be let in the near future.
