That much feeling between members

of Patrick Dunn has been aroused by
this lawsuit is shown by the averments
and denials of the application and an

The application says Raymond Dunn
is weak intellectually and incapable of
handling the property ne inherited from
his father. This consists of eighty
acres of land, a life estate in twenty
three other acres and about $1,000 of
personal property.
The application alleges that the sis

IGNORING ONE FACTOR

There are two equally important
factors which govern the price of
wheat. The quantity raised and the
quality. The government crop re-
ports and the buyers this year seem
to be ignoring the latter factor.
There is little doubt that the farm
ers of the United States have pro-
duced a bumper crop of wheat, but
they have not saved it yet, and
weather conditions in many sections
of the grain belt have been such as
to unavoidably impair the milling
quality of the grain.
In Kansas and several other OF
the middle western states, but little
grain has been threshed on account
OF the abnormally wet weather and
the quality of the wheat which has
been standing in the fields or in the
shocks for weeks, has necessarily
been seriously impaired. The crop
report of the Kansas Board Of Agri-
culture, issued August 80, shows
decrease of over 1900, 1000 bushels
from the July estimate and adds;
Continued wet weather, render
ing impossible the harvesting OF
much wheat that a month ago 1t was
expected would be cut, was a CHIEF
factor in this reduction. Threshing
returns in many localities are not
holding up to expectations, suggest
Ing that the waste of grain has been
large, especially where wheat was III
the shock. Comparatively little
threshing has been done for the sea-
son of the year, and in some por-
tions particularly in the Northwest
the separator has not yet began to
hum"
Similar conditions have obtained
in Nebraska Oklahoma, Missouri
and several other states and when
the harvest is over it is almost GER
tain to develop the fact that a con-
siderable per cent of the wheat crop
raised, has not been cut, and that
a still larger per cent has been dam
aged in quality to such an extent
that there will be a strong demand
for good milling grain.
The warning nations OF Europe
are going to need just as much gram
as they did last year, but they have
