The Wheat Price Explained

Although there has been much saic
by way Of explaining the government
price Of wheat many people are still
asking for information on the sub.
ject, and this is not at all strange fol
the problem Of price fixing by the
government is entirely new to our
country.
The price now is S2.2O at Chicago,
for No. l wheat of the different var
ieiics. This price was determined by
a committee Of twelve selected by the
president, the membership of the com
mittee being composed Of two prom
inent economists, two representatives
Of organized labor, two representa-
tives Of big business, two presidents
Of state agricultural colleges, three
representatives Of organized agricul-
ture and one individual farmer. There
were on the committee four men ac-
tually engaged in farming.
The price of S22O for No. wheat
at Chicago is a fixed price for the
1917 crop and will not be changed be-
fore July !, 1918. The government
will buy all wheat offered at that
price, provided there are no other buy
crs who will pay that much, but will
not permit any buyer to pay more.
So that, although the government may
not buy all of the wheat yet this
price is a fixed price that will be paid
by all buyers and which will be made
neither more nor less
In the Legislation establishing food
control the congress placed minimum
guaranteed price on the 1918 wheat
crop. This minimum, below which
the price can not go, is $500, but is
based on "the principal interior mar
kets" and not on Chicago alone, which
means that the price can not be below
$500 at any one Of those principal
primary markets." such as Minneapo-
lis, Omaha, Kansas City, etc.
The price of $500 is only a mini
mum guarantee. 1t will become eff
fective July l, 1918, and continue in
effect until May /, 1919. 1t will not
be changed or withdrawn. 1t is not
a rule Of the food administration, but
an act Of congress. No matter how
large the crop raised next year may
be, if there are not other buyers for
the wheat who will offer $500 the
must take it at that price |
On the other hand if costs of produc-
tion increase or there is a light yield,
or if for any other reason the costs
OF production are unduly high or the
demand is very urgent, the price may
be above $500 as it is now.
The present price Of 1920 is fixed |
price that will not be changed in any
way until July /, 1918, The $500 |

necessary. The ends are sloped so
that wagons can drive in, over the
tops, thus packing them down. Al
ternate layers of straw may be put
between layers of tops. Straw takes
up some of the moisture from the
tops, thus improving both feeds. When
the trench is full, it is covered with
straw and earth. The silage is cut
out with a hay knife and taken out
from the end.-Chas. l. Bray, Colo

SHERIFFS PoSSEE RAIDS CED-
AIRS
Recover Number of Stolen Cars
Seventy Miles Southwest OF La
mar in the Cedars

On Sunday, October 7, Sheriff
Downing received word from Sheriff
Long at Springfield that deputy
sheriff from Dalhart, Texas, was
there in search of stolen car. Mr..
Downing decided this would be a good
time to search the cedars with a
posse. He called Undersheriff Rho
denbaugh and Claiming Pyle, owner
of one of the cars recently stolen, and
they went to Springfield that night
and next morning in company with R.
C. Shindler, Mr.. Smith, the Dalhart
deputy, a driver, and the Springfield
officers they left for the ccdars.
Messrs. w. Grant of Springfield,
Rhodenbaugh and Pyle made the first
haul at a barn on Butte creek about
30 miles northwest of Springfield,
where they found the car stolen
from Mr.. Shindler. They took the
car and arrested the man in whose
possession it was found. They then
went into the Little Mustang Canon
looking for another suspected man.
They had to camp on the prairie and
wait for him as he was away at the
time. He came at night in a car and
they seized him and the car. This
party then returned to Lamar bring
ing the two prisoners and two cars,
arriving here at two o'clock on Tues
day morning. AS they had obtained
very direct clews as to the location
of Mr.. Pyle's car they returned at
once taking Marshal Harding of La
mar with them. They joined the bal
ance of the posse about seven o'clock.
The Texas men took the car they
had recovered and returned home. The
many hours Officers Rhodenbaugh and
Harding succeeded in capturing the
man who it was believed had stolen
Mr.. Pyle's car. They found him in
hiding on the mesa south of Butte
creek near Flues, Colorado, and i'm
mediately brought him to Lamar In
the meantime Mr.. Downing had re-
ceived word that a hidden car had been
located and the officers returned and
found Mr.. Pyle's car at the place in
dicated. Sending it home by driver
from the Sunday Garage, they went
in search Of two other suspects but
failed to land them. However, Sher-
iff Downing later located one Of these
men at Elkhart, and he was brought
here and placed in jail.
The result of this raid was the re-
covery of two Lamar and one Dalhart
cars, and the arrest Of three men, two
in Jail here and one taken to Dalhart
for trial. 1t has long been the theory
Of our sheriff's force that many Of
the cars stolen along the river towns
had been hidden in the cedars and
they have tried to interest the other
counties along the line in a general
plan for a concentrated raid on that
section. Had this been done it is be-
lieved many more cars would have
been recovered as the posse saw more
that they thought looked suspic-
ious. At least it was very successful
in accomplishing the return Of sever
al cars and probably putting a con-
siderable check to future operations

The Lamar register., 1917-10-17

In Lamar alone there are 100 wom-
en- knitting, 80 doing gauze work, 81
doing garment and bandage work.
Others doing work at home make
total of about 231. They have COM
pleted to date 2255 articles consisting
of garments for hospital use, band
ages, gauze work and knitted sweat
ers, scarfs and helmets.
There are eight instructors, two
of whom have charge of the work at
headquarters each day.
More women are wanted to receive
the instruction and can be accommo-
dated in the classes as follows:
Gauze room, Monday, two more;
Wednesday, two; Thursday, four; Fri
day, four, and Saturday five.
In the other branches there is room
for great many more on every day
except Monday, which is full.
Only one shipment of completed ar
ticles has been made. This shipment
consisted of muslin bandages and hos
pital garments almost exclusively and
contained 656 pieces. Another ship
ment of gauze work and knitted work
will be made in a few days.
There are now five auxiliaries to
the Prowers County Chapter as fol-
lows: Bristol, Holly, p. f. o., Cath
olic Ladies', Lamar, and Busy Mac
cabee, Lamar.
An effort is being made to organ
ize other auxiliaries so as 10 COM
pletely cover the county.
The total membership of the county
is about 600.
The following amounts have been
expended by the Prowers County
Chapter from August 18th, A. D. 1917

The damage done to corn in the
corn belt is estimated to be 100000
600 bushels annually. In our mad
scramble to get corn into the ground
this year, we do not want to overlook
this tremendous waste. Next to poor
seed corn, the corn root worm is the
greatest source of loss to corn. The
remedy is the rotation of crops. Never
grow more than two crops Of corn con-
secutively on the same ground. If you
had corn root worm bad last year and
it is too late to put in anything else,
you had better change to barley. Your
scotsman can still furnish you with
some excellent seed barley. IT you do
put in corn on that land, be careful to
give your land more than a usual
preparation The time is late and we
will have to bend every energy to
plant our corn crop.
