HELD At COLLEGE
Seventy-fiye Boys and Girls .Partiel.
pate in Event ia Charge of Ma.
tiOnal Leader

TThe first boys and girls club fes.
tival ever held in the state of Wash
ington was conducted at the State
College Wednesday of this week
with rs boys and girls from the var
lous Whitman county clubs in at
tendance. The event was a purely
Whitman county affair and the clubs
at Rosalia, Albion, Palouse, Garfield

tons, the greater part of the youth
ful visitors coming in automobiles
The festival was under the auspices

A big basket dinner was spread in

program of sports and judging
events. The youngsters we're taken
on tour of inspection of the college
and it's big plant, each group being
guided by some person connected
with the college, who explained in
as much detail as time permitted the
work of the institution.
Ice cream and lem onade were on
tap all day and that the visitors en-
joyed the treat was evidenced by the
fact that 10 gallons of ice cream, to-
gether with gallon after gallon OF

MORE FINE SHEEP
FOR PULLMAN BOYS
First National Bank Distributes Car
load of Blooded Shropshires
From Bozeman, Mont.

The First National bank on
Wednesday received another carload
of Shropshire sheep for distribution
among the boys around Pullman,
who want to start in the live stock
industry. The following purchased
from three to a dozen of the sheen
and number more have phoned in

Patten, Lloyd Stevenson, Melvin

Speaking of the quality of these
sheep, Richard Hanna. herdsman at
the State College, says:

forward and abandoned and others
have been developed, but, in any case,
none has or can be settled until legis-
lation has been completed. Three
facts stand out plainly enough from
our Investigations: First, that in this
situation the farmer will need protec-
ton as TO the price of wheat, and,
second, that large masses of people
in the consuming centers are being
actually undernourished today, due
to the exhorbitant cost of living; and
these conditions, unless some remedy
be found, are likely to repeat them
selves in even more vicious form at
this time next year; third, the specu-
lator, legitimate or vicious, has taken
large part of the money now being
paid by the consumer.
T. 1t seems to be overlooked in
some quarters that the marketing of
this years wheat. is surrounded with
circum stances new to history and
that the old distributing safeguards
are torn away by isolation from the
reciprocal markets abroad and the ex-
Junction of free export market and
free export transportation. The har-
vest has begun to move, and from
these very causes the price of wheat
has begun to drop; and if the farmer
is TO sell his wheat either the specu-
lator must return to the market to
buy and carry not only the normal
flow from the farmer in excess Of
domestic and foreign requirements.
but also the glut due to the rcsctric-
ton upon the outlet to the latter. He
must necessarily charge his toll to
the producer and the consumer, and
this latter probably upon a more ex-
tensive scale than last year. as his
risks will be greater. Practically
the export buyer must fix his own
price for export wheat from the sole
outlook of his own clients, and in ex-
ecution of his duty he will, in all nor
nal circumstances follow the market
down by buying only his time-to-time
requirements, as he can not be ex-
pected to carry the load of our do
mestic accumulation. Or, on the
other hand, the government must buy
the surplus wheat at some reason
able minimum price, allowing the
normal domestic trade of the country
to proceed with proper safeguards
against speculation. Nor would the
services of the Spectator be neces-
sary, for the government should be
able to stabilize the price of wheat
without his assistance and can con-
troll the price and quantity of export
wheat. We are practically helpless
to safeguard either the farmer or the
consumer until the pending leglsla-
ton Is passed

HOOVER'S LETTER
July 10, 1917.

July 10, 1917.
Dear Mr.. President;
In response to your request l send
you herewith the following notes
compiled by myself and my associ-
ates upon the present situation with
regard to wheat:
/. The 1917 harvest promises to
yield 67S,000,000 bushels. The
normal internal consumption and
seed requirement assuming carry
over OF same volume in 1918 as in
1910 amounts to about 100000
600 bushels, thus leaving a theoret-
ical export balance of $4,000, 700
bushels. The conservation measures
are already having a marked effect
and ii is not too much to hope that
the national saving may be 8O,000,-
600 to 100,000,000 bushels, and
therefore the export balance in
creased to, say, 158,O0O,00O to $780,
100000 bushels.
Results of Speculation
=. Tho experience this year in
the rampant speculation, extortion-
ate profits, and the prospect of even
narrower supplies than 1916 harvest
and carry over, must cause the deep
est anxiety. No better proof of the
hardship worked upon our people
during the past year need be adduced
than the recitation of the fact that
the producer received an average of
ST. l. per bushel for the 1916 wheat
harvest, yet wheat has been as high
as 1926 at Chicago, and tho price
of flour has been from time to time
based upon this speculative price of
wheat, so that through one evil cause
or another, the consumer has suf-
fered from so to 100 per cent and
the producer gained nothing. After
much study and investigation it is
evident that this unbearable increase
in the margin between producer and
consumer is due to not only rank
speculation, but more largely to the
wide margin of profit demanded by
every link in the chain to insure
them from the great hazards of trade
in the widely fluctuating and dan
gerous price situation during a year
when all normal sterilization has
been lost through the interruption of
world trade and war. All these fac
tors render it vitality necessary to in
itiate systematic measures which will
absolutely eliminate all possibility of
speculation, cure extortionate profits,
and effect proper distribution and re-
striction on exports to a point with
in our own protection. These meas
ures can not be accomplished by
punitive prosecutions of evil-doers,
but only by proper and anticipatory
organization and regulation all along
the distribution chain.
3. During recent months the al
lied governments have consolidated
their buying into one hand in order
that they might relieve the burden OF
speculation from their own consum-
ers, and as the restricted exports to
neutrals are but a minor item, the
export price. If not controlled, Is
subject to the will of the allied buy
er, so that in a great measure the
American producer is left to that
buyers Judgment and is without
voice. Furtherm ore, In normal cir
cumstances United States and Ca
