1T cannot be repeated too often that
the world needs every ounce of food
1t can produce this year, and that the
growers of that food are sure OF good
prices. When men now of middle age
were casting their first ballot, dollar
wheat was the farmers ideal OF pros

wheat, with other grains and meats
and vegetables in proportion; and lndi-
cations that any shift from these
prices is as likely to be up as down.

who increases his crops Is performing

Now that the United States has
Joined with the Allies, the sentiment
of the past has merged into the per-
