ENLIsTING FOR WHEAT.

The average man who has not en-
listed in the army feels that he
would like to do something to help
win the war. The women are hard
at it with their knitting but this
looks inconsequential to man. he
wants to do larger things but he
does not know what to DO.
To the farmer the call has been
sent out. He has been asked to
grow, more wheat and in Iowa that
means more winter wheat. The gov
eminent food administrator has ask
ed Iowa to raise more wheat and ten
acres is little enough for the average
farmer to contribute toward this
food supply.
Prof. Curtiss, dean of the agricul-
tural college. advises that. the in
wheat instead of spring wheat and
now is the time to pillow and SOW for
winter wheat. winter wheat says
Prof. Curtiss, lis more reliable and
will make on the average so per cent
larger yield.
If a farmer can grow twenty-five
bushels of winter wheat per acre at
$500 per bushel he will not lose
much while showing his patriotism.
He can put in his crop this fall when
other work is not rushing him. He
can harvest HSAo yctil .lAOAu " ehS
oats harvest and he will arrive at
his market with winter grain several
months ahead of the spring crop
which is a safer bet considering the
possibility of peace being declared
before fall of next year.
However, the main consideration
is that men should perform whatey-
er service in support of this war that
they can perform When piano
factory is asked to make aeroplane
wires and an auto factory is csked
owners promptly accept their as
Segment and they make the mul-
nitions for which they are equipped.
The Iowa farm is equipped for win
ter wheat. The farmer has been ask
ed to grow wheat. Let all patriots
respond to the colors in whatever
capacity they can serve best.

1920 FOR 1911. WHEAT.

Last week, the committee APP
pointed to fix the price at which the
government would buy the 1871 Z
| wheat crop, made it's report, and fix
ed price of 1920 per bushel for
No. / northern wheat at primary
there was a disagreement in the
committee The representatives OF
the farmers insisted upon price OF
$3.50, and the representatives of
capital and labor stuck for price OF
sl.S4. The price fixed, therefore,
represents a compromise. The prices
for other grades of wheat will OF
course be adjusted to this price.
Some who have made estimates. fig
grades at primary markets will be
$21O, while No. dark hard winter
and also dark northern spring will
sell for about 1924. Of course, the
price the farmer will receive will be
less than the price at the primary
markets by the amount of the
freight and the cost Of handling.
Looking at it from the. cost of
production alone, and eliminating
from this cost of production the
value of the fertility used in making
mittee is perhaps fair price. Look
ing at it, however, from the stand
point of the wheat available, and
the demand for it, the price is too
low. III the government had not fix
ed a price, but had allowed the law
of supply and demand to operate,
the price would very likely have
been considerably above $3.50, even
if there had been no unwarranted
speculation. The official fixing of
the price will unquestionably pre-
vent the farmer from receiving the
profit that would have been his I'M
der normal conditions of trade.
The only justification for fixing
the price Of wheat or any other farm
products at less than the prices nor.
mally would be, is that the govern.
ment proposes also to fix prices OF
other commodities which both farm
ers and people generally must use.
If the prices of steel, for example,
and all steel manufactures, are per-
mitted to be governed wholly by the
law of supply and demand, then the
farmers of the country will have just
cause to make most grievous COM
plain-Wa llaces' Farmer.
