3. The vital Importance Of consery-

OF the wheat supply the price might
have gone so high that our country

Oklahoma directly by Mr. Hoover
Mr. shorthill emphasized the fact
that it IS absolutely necessary that
the government take charge OF the

That the price fixing is not to stop
with wheat was evidenced last week
when the government entered into an
agreement with steel manufacturers
whereby the prices of their products
were reduced practically one half.
Since steel and iron both Of which
are affected N this agreement enter
largely into ,hc manufacture Of tools
and Implements that the farmer uses,
It is evident that the process Of price
fixing is going to work both ways.
Furthermore the government has al
ready fixed the prices to be paid to
the ngducers VI coal and the machinl
cry IS in motion for fixing retail
prices.
Arthur capper, of Kansas in his
farm paper says "The western wheat

Reports Startled Trade and Future Contracts Made on COnten-,

IMPORT TAX IS CERTAIN
Duty Can Be Borne More Easily by Public Than on Other
 FOodStuff.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2G.-The coffee
 trade has been interested lately in reports, said to emanate from orfic- ial Washington. that one of the measures the Democrats will adopt
 in an effort to wipe ou the $279,OOO,- 900 deficiency in the treasury, pre- dicted by Secretary McAdoo in 1918, will be an import duty on coffee. The prices for coffee futures have made advances on the reports, and it
 is probable a real bull movement would follow the actual confirmation Of the stories. But traders are rather divided in opinion as to the liklihood of coffee duty. One broker recalled from his IS years of experience on the Coffee EX- change no less than six occasions when talk of duty on coffee has been an important factor without the duty becoming a fact. On the other hand, an important operator regards an import tax on the con- modity as sure as fate"
 Washington reports place the amount of the duty at F of cent a pound, but in the opinion of prom ineut traders, the levy will be larger probably nearer five cents a pound. The annual reports of cCffcc into this country are estimated at about S,OOO,OOO bags, or 1,O4O,OOO,OOO pounds. A duty Of F cent would therefore yield about $5,2OO,OOO, while a five. cent tax would net $52,OOO,OOO.
 It is pointed out that a duty on coffee could be much more easily borne by the general public than q similar levy OF almost any other foodstuff, since coffee is about the on- ly commodity that is not selling at war prices A pound of coffee at 30 cents lasts the average American family a week. and increases in the cost owing to a duty would be i'm portant. American roa5ters, on whom the chief burden of the tax would fall, are not worried over the levy, provided it is small, say one cent 1 pound, but they declare that a five cent rate would work a decided hard. l ship
