acre than spring wheat and also fur
nishes valuable pasturage in the fall
preceding the harvesting of the crop.
That therefore higher price should
be paid for spring wheat than winter
wheat and that natural market condi-
lions prior to the action of the price
fixing commission indicated that
spring wheat would have brought a
higher price than winter wheat, and
that therefore the United States gov
eminent as unjustly Disseminated
against the producers of spring wheat
in the northwestern states by now fix
ing basic price of $3.50 per bushel
foOr our best grades.
Therefore, in the name Of justice
and in order to keep our community
from being seriously disrupted when
our food producing capacity should
be up to the highest possible eff
cheney, we respectfully petition tho
United States government to order its
price fixing commission to reconsider
the prices fixed for the 1917 spring
wheat crop and arrange a schedule
that will give us not less than $500
per bushel at our local market. SO y.
Eve further respectfully beg per-
mission to call the attention of the
United States government to the fact
that we suspect that contracts for
the future delivery of large quaint
ties Of wheat had been closed at $500
or more per bushel prior to the begin
ming Of the session Of the price fix
ing commission, and that if the gov
eminent does not now take all the
spring wheat that is offered for sale
by producers and handlers it will be
helping spectators who have con-
tracts to fill, at $500 per bushel to
buy wheat with which to fill those
contracts at $3.50 per bushel, or to
reap clear profit of soc per bushel
for which not a drop of sweat has
been she'd We believe it would be
greater wisdom on the part of the
United States government to compen-
safe spring wheat growers on the
same basis as winter wheat growers
we're compensated for the 1911 crop.
and take steps to prevent SPECTATORS
from getting possession of quantities
of wheat and manipulate the market
50 as to get eXtOrtionate prices for
wheat and flour after the wheat has
left the farmers hands.
