1ncessant rains delayed harvesting of
winter wheat n caused great delay in
marketing. There WAS a sensational rise
In prices in September, The demand
for spring wheat WAS the most insistent
ever known. Foreign Governments or
ganized their buying machinery thor
oughly. and haphazard methods and
speculation were discouraged. The
Canadian Government took a hand in
he situation by communicating large
supplies Of wheat In the elevators at
Port Arthur and Fort william.
A remarkable development OF the
year was the great rise In ocean freight
rates. So many steamships were sunk
by submarines and mines. so many
steamships were withdrawn by the Al
lies for transport service. and the loss
OF Germany's mercantile marine was so
heavily felt. that a tremendous demand
resulted for ocean carriers. Rates went
up to the highest figure ever known.
Owners OF freight ships made fortunes
over night, Recently It has cost so
cents a bushel to carry wheat from this
country to the west coast Of Europe,
and much more to Mediterranean ports +:
carrying charges from Australia and
the Argentine became almost prohlbi-
rive. The English and French Gov
ernments have taken steps TO alleviate
conditions by providing more tonnage
at less ooet, and a steady call for our
surplus products should exist In 1915,
with the American grain growers hold
ing a favored position.
The exports Of wheat and hour IN 10

at 332,ss+,0O0 bushels. OF corn, 47,sS7,-

middle OF December the exports were 1:

corn. 1851 900 bushels oats, 80, 2S9, 900
bushels. The high price for May wheat
was reached in February. $l.S7. From
that time on there was a diminishing
volume of speculation and an irregular
lowering of prices. Trade in corr was

point in the yea for May corn was
reached in February, S3hs cents. Small
grains were greatly in demand. In

Ing n prices recovered from the slump
OF early In the year.
Prospects for 1915 in the grain trade
are promising, with a prediction for
much better than ordinary prices. Com
tinued prosperity for the grain trade and
the farmers Of the country appears to be
assured.

AmonE the notable movements Of the
year was the application of diversified
farming principles in the Southern

the expense OF cotton. This made the

rgentine Wheat Crop Not to Lower Price Of Bread

chiefly through the ports Of New Or
leans and New York. They were made
possible by the removal Of the tariff,
which was done in the Underwood
tariff bill.
A similar provision related to wheat.
1t required that reciprocal concessions
should be made by the countries seek
ing to take advantage of the free mar
ket of the United States. Canada has
never complied with this condition, be-
cause the powerful Canadian railway
interests feared that they would lose
much of their traffic If wheat ship
ments were diverted from the Domin-
ion to American -four mills.
Argentina promptly enacted the nee
essary measures to insure the free ad-
mission Of her wheat and other agH-
cultural products into the United States.
1t was not expected that there would
be much opportunity for wheat ship
ments, but the Argentine government
wanted It's grain growers to- be In a
position to take. advantage of excep-
tional circumstances which might Gre
ate a market in the United States.
That is how the matter stands today.
There is no tariff barrier to the i'm

men in training for hospital work on
the care and nursing of sick animals,
the dressing of wounds, appHcatlon OF
bandageS, etc.
DR.. Vans Agnew also outlines the
ideal formation of a working veteri-
nary corps, as follows:
.In active service, each division of
troops should have mobile veterinary
section consisting of one veterinary Of
f1cer and twenty-five men. all mounted,
and provided with medicines and dress
inss for first-aid work. They should
be divided into sections, one to collect
f1t horses and destroy the unfit ami
mails; the other to collect the sick ami
mails and bring them to the field hos
njtals. railroads and lines of oommu-
nication for base hospitals. The field
hospitals would be simply temporary
STRUCTURES where less severely injured
animals could be treated. The base
hospitals, capable of holding 1000 ami
mails. must be properly stated and
fairly substantially built, composed Of
shods holding about fifty animals EACH
Then comes the large convalescent de-
pot, or depots.
Former President Taft. one of the
vice presidents of the American HUI
name Association, in writing DR.. Still
man of the new work, said:
IT am very glad that you have estab-
lfshed relations with the Secretary of
War. and that you are going to con-
duct a work for voluntary relief serv-
ice for the United States Army horses
and other animals in use by it. 1 have
always been glad to be one of your
vice presidents, because / believe you
are carrying on an efficient work"
The real need of such work as this
is readily found in the European war.
The horse In war is still supreme. So
much has been said about the use Of
motor trucks in transporting troops
and supplies that sight has frequently
been lost of the fact that thousands
and thousands of horses are being used
for transport purposes in the armies at

be very advantageously adopted to
your. society for rendering organized
aid to injured animals in time of war.
If your society will undertake this
work, the War Department will be very
glad to cooperate with you"
The name adopted for the organiza-
tion is based on the International Red
Star Alliance, which was organized
during December. 1914, in Geneva,
Switzerland. with the object of bring
ing about international. Incorporation in
behalf of sick or wounded war animals
DR.. William o. Stillman. president of
the American Humane Association, and
director general of the American Red
Star Animal Relief, in speaking of the
work. said:
this new organization means the forma-
tion of veterinary hospital units.
Veterinary medical supplies. including
not only sets of operating instruments,
but drugs. bandages. blankets. ambu-
lances and all other necessary appIi-
ances and equipment, must be secured
Then the personnel or staff units must
be equipped.
"The work of the organization will be
carried on by local committees, which
will be formed all over the United
States, while the movement will be
financed by voluntary contribution.
Already many contributions have been
received, and beginning made"
A practical outline or what would be
needed by such an organization was
given by DR.. r. Vans Agnew, veteri-
marian in the United State Army. After
detailing just what would be actually
necessary for the carrying on Of the
work, DR.. Vans Agnew tells what would
be needed in time of war, in addition
to ordinary equipment and supplies.
.In the event of a war we shall need
down near the border large conya-
lescent farm. possibly two of them.
Some large land owner might rent or
lend several thousand acres of good
pasture land, where run down and ex-
hausted animals could be turned out to
grase and recuperate. Veterinary
surgeons could be obtained to give
practical lectures and demonstrations to

and threshers. Every year the manu.
facturers send down to Argentina ,
corps of repair men to look after thefr
machipery which has been sold to the
Argentine wheat growers.
Argentine wheat growing is still on
the large scale which used to obtain in
the Dakotas and other parts of the
northwest. although the number OF
small cultivators is increa sing. The
Caterpillar" tractor was one form of
American farm machinery which found
immediate favor in Argentina. Since
contracted with the manufacturers Of
these tractors for practically their
whole output Argentina has not been
SO well supplied with them, but this Is
merely a temporary deficiency.
The Chicago packers who established
themselves in Argentina a few years
ago and now operate their own pack
ing plants were not asleep as to the
question of the grain shipments. Some
of them were said to be interested In
elevator projects on a large scale. II
Argentina is really to ship wheat to
be brought about through the Ameri-
can interests already established there.
But the Chicago packers established
themselves in Argentina primarily for
the purpose of supplying their Euro-
pean market. The shipments of Argen-
tine meat which began coming to the
United States three years ago were
through independent sources.
The same thing may happen in rela-
ton to wheat shipments. But the re-
lief to the American bread consumer Is
more likely to come from the allied
governments drawing more largely on
the Argentine wheat supply and less on
that of the United States than through
direct shipments of wheat in large
quantities to this country.

and pay the higher prices because they
want the wheat
Tho allies would take advantage OF
an abundant Argentine crop and draw
more literally from that source II the
crop proved to be plentiful. Whenever,
IL ever, they get Constantinople and
open the way for the outlet of the
Rumanian and Russian wheat field
they will draw on those countries, and
then the American bread consumer
may see a prospect of cheaper bread,
because even with short crop at home
there will be enough wheat for the do
mestic demand. since the European de-
mand Will be lessened. But that does
not seem. likely to happen within the
next few months. ~
It is not yet possible to predict with

tine crop will be this harvest year.
