Anthony. " NJ JULY IS
Editor Il Paso Herald;
We have read, with great interest,
the question Of C. B. Stevens as TO
why wheat was 81 per bushel higher
I'm PIainview than I'm this valley, and,
with amusement, the answer Cd OF
the mlIlers
il might be Of interest to know that
certain mills were paying SlN5 Der
cyrr for wheat from this valley last
year and sails for Arizona wheat ar
the same time. OF course Arizona is
hard winter wheat. that state being
iu the cold regions Of the country
We think 10 was close enough TO Cali
ifornia 20 enjoy competition ana NAY
Arizona farmers are really interested
in the southwest and keep posted
IT. also may be Of interest 10 Know
that we sent samples OF our wheat
70 Dallas mills. makers OF q very Wei
known and high priced grade OF flour
and they came back with the state
weut that the wheat ran high In flour
values and they would be pleased 90
have us make them price on all we
could obtain We had then sold three
carloads 10 Galveston and We're un-
able TO make them price w e know
of several cars besides ours that were
shipped TO Galveston and graded No
white winter, though we call it
spriuE
In conclusion. we viii state that any
farmer. either i'm the lower or uDpe-
valley. who has clean lot OF wheat
running up to car or more. $4,000
pounds. or can get ueiEhbor TO help
him fin out a car. who viii Commuui-
cate with us. can secure SOL per
busheI from US OF we viii put him In
touch with dealers who can and viii
pay this. We were obliged TO refuse
a request for prices on 5000 bushels
last week at price which would have
offered above. We would also be glad
to have a few cars of feed barley Of
fered us
In conclusion. our only idea is to
help the southwest grow" being I'm
terested in no other section.

who wanted Information last fan as
