WHEAT STRAW VALUABLE

If all the wheat straw raised in
kan>es in one year were properly
applied to the soil it not only would
supply organic matter but increase
greatly the productivity Of the soil.
but would also add more than Sl2,-
600, 900 worth Of plant food annually,
according to r. I. Throckmortop, as
sistant professor of soils in the Kan
sas state agricultural college. T
"Wheat straw" says Mr.. Throck-
morton, "is one of the most valuable
by-products of the farm and if it is
burned not only is the organic matter
destroyed, but most Of the plant food
as we'll. The most economical meth
cd of Utilization is the use of all the
straw possible for feed and bedding
and the application of the manure 20
the soil. Whe,: this is not possible
straw should be applied as surface
dressing during the winter at'the rate
Of one to one and half tons per
acre. A heavier application should
be avoided.
"When top dressings of this kind
are made the straw acts as a surface
mulch and aids in the conservation
of moisture. Later it becomes incor-
porated in the soil mass and supplies
organic matter and plant food"

RESOLUTION RETRACTED
Food Trades Conference Rescinds
Husbandry Resolution.

One of the interesting points
brought out at the Congressional hear
ing on mixed -four held by the Ways
and Means Committee early in Feb
ruary had to do with the retraction
of a resolution passed some months
ago by the Food Trades Conference
of New York City. 1t appears that
the resolution, which was adverse to
the passage Of the Cummins- Rainey
bill repeating the tax on mixed -four.
was originally passed with but one
side of the question having been
heard. When fully posted as to the
merits of the controversy the confer
ence promptly rescinded. its earlier
action. .,-..
The Cummins- Rainey bill seeks to
repeal an Internal Revenue law Of
long standing, which, it is claimed by
corn growers and manufacturers, op-.
crates to the disadvantage of Indian
corn and in no way is conducive to
the welfare of the public. -
1t is the contention of Senator AL
bert B. Cummins, of Iowa, and Repre-
sentative Henry T. Rainey, of Illinois.
that the Food and Drugs, Act, COM
monty known as the Pure Food Law,
is all sufficient as a means of regu-
lating the manufacture and sale of
food products. Mixed -four, which is
a mixture of cereal products with
wheat -four, can be sold at a lower
price than that necessarily asked for
all wheat -four, and as it makes ex-
tellent bread, will be a boon to the
American housewife. At present it's
manufacture is practically prohibited
by taxes and other obnoxious regula-
tory provisions.
The Repeal Bill, known as H. R.
9409, is endorsed by the National Corn
Association, the agricultural depart
ments of many states, scientific in
vestigators and humanitarians, as we'll
as by the National Grange of the Pa
irons of Husbandry. It calls for ex-
plicit labeling-the relative proper
tions of all ingredients, as well as
their names, being required: to n be
stated: conspicuously on each con.

FRENCH MARKETS
In WAITING MOOD
Proposal to Remove Tariff
from Metals Strongly
Opposed
By YVES GUYOT
Paris. December 10.

Paris. Dccember ~.
The markets are extremely quiet.
German peace talk has not inspired
confidence. Ordinarily. it is not the
victors who offer peace. but the con-
quered who ask for it. The markets
are waiting to see what it all means.
The proposal is made to remove
the tariff from metals during the
war. The plan was suggested at the
beginning of the war, but was OPP
posed by miners and manufacturers,
who did not think the war would last
so long. 1t still seems doubtful if
either the manufacturers or the gov
eminent will accept the plan. Tie
government. on the one hand. needs
revenue from this source, while the
manufacturers are still afraid OF
competition.

FORECAST OF A
NEW WAR LOAN
Allies Likely to Ask More
Credit Here, Despite
Peace Offer

Suggestions emanated from Wash
ipgton Yesterday that preparations are
heiro made 10 float a new Allied loan
in this country.
The bankers here who control the
financing Of Great Britain's purchases
in the United States said the discus
sion is premature. AS was stated by
them when the s3OO,ooO,000 81 per
cen. United Kingdom loan was placed
in October it is expected that new
British financing will be taken up soon
after the turn of the New Year.
This statement was repeated yester-
dav with the reservation that the mat
ter of a new loan will depend largely
on the nature Of Lloyd Georges reply
in the House of Parliament to-day to
Germany's peace offer. II was eX-
planned. however, that even should the
new British Premier's remarks lead
10 peace discussions this would not
necessarily mean 10 50
further American loans. The willing
ness of the Allies to be represented at
Hague conference, it was limited,
would be of Importance in that it
might mean a smaller loan than If the
war was prolonged.
In the meantime the Allies gold con-
tinues TO come here in large amounts
from Canada. This week s25,Ooo,o0o
is expected 10 arrive consigned TO j. 2.
Morgan & Co. This will bring the
total shipped to New York since the
first of the year to sum in excess OF
s6OO,oOo.Oo0.
As the Federal Reserve Board has
indicated some reservations as TO IN
secured obligations of the belligerent
European countries, it is expected that
the next loan will be secured. In gem
eral the plan followed will probably be
similar 10 the last British loan where
the securities forming the collateral
were represented TO have a market
value considerably in excess Of the
face amount OF the loan.

There mas taken place in Wall
Street deep and fundamental
.Asage OF feeling toward the stock
:narkc;. Enthusiasm for "bulling
securities on war profits is gone. lr-
respective Of what happens TO Ger
many's peace proposal, it will not
return in its former character. The
other side Of the picture has come
suddenly into view. Though the de-
mand for war goods should continue
undiminished, the profits, It IS ar
gued. would tend 10 fall, for the rea-
son that the cost Of production Is
rising at an accelerated rate. In the
mean time, Notwithstanding the
liquidation that occurred on the
Stock Exchange last week, brokers
have a great many stocks on mar
gin. The West is heavily committed.
As money has been moving in that
direction, so have the stocks. Per
haps never before was the specula-
tive account in stocks west Of the
Hudson River so large as now is the
case. II follows that a great num-
Der of casual spectators are wait

even more emphatic, but that such
warning as was issued was forth
coming at the right time it regards
rs zone of the most hopeful indica-
tons of the usefulness Of the re
serve system
Those in Wall Street-and they
were many-who agreed in principle
with what the board said. neverth'-
less complained that its manner Of
saying it was wrong. The same re-
suit might have been accomplished
without publicity. AS to this, the
Journal, in a very refreshing spirit,
says:
Another singular suggestion. pur-
porting 10 come from New York
bankers, was that the reserve board
should have proceeded with more
inesse. L should, for instance. have
passed word quietly 70 bankers in
stead Of giving out statement for
publication. That is what the Bank
Of England does. II there is more
gold available for use than the man
ayers of that bank think is necessary
and the decrease of the discount rate
does not drive it out rapidly enough
they will borrow il and lock it up.
Such an act is great secret official
~. but everybody knows about it,
Such cameral procedure may do well
in England. but there is the proba
bilty of danger in such an under
taking in this country. One can
only imagine The rumors that would
be incident TO a secret message from
the reserve board TO bankers. Wise
heads would be wsgging, the air
would be charged with mystery and
there would be as many varying ru-
mors as there were reporters chss-
ing them. In the weller the truth
would be lost completely.
The Journal then calls attention to
a fact that has been almost lost,
because nobody was concerned about
saving it. IL is this:
The mystery was not of the re
serve boards making. There was no
inhibition. There was not even =
hint that il would be better if the
Treasury notes should be withdrawn
There was, in fact, no reason for
Withdrawing them. They may have
been very proper under restrictions,
accompanied by the reserve boards
advice about liquidity.
The board did not object to the
sale in this country Of British and
French treasury bills. What It hal
in mind was the undertaking to print
and float among commercial banks
an unlimited amount of that ind
Of security. 1t really expected that.
Notwithstanding its warning, several
hundred millions would actually be
sold. 1t did not ask or expect that
the idea of placing such bills at all
should be abandoned. Neither has
it ever objected to the placing Of
foreign loans in this country. 1t has
discussed only the kind Of loans
that ought not to be placed.
