FARMERS NOT
HOLDING CORN
REPORTS From Corn States Indicate
Holdings by Farmers Unusually
Low.

Washington, D. c., August 2l-That
the unprecedentedly high price of orn
is not due to abnormal holding of sup
plies by farmers is the belief Of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, based on reports just received
from crop correspondents in Illinois,
Ohio, Kentucky, Iowa, and Missouri.
These States are typical Of the great
surplus white-corn producing region
of the United States, the department
declares, and their conditions indicate
throughout the corn-producting erea.
The Investigations disclosed that farm
ers are holding only enough corn to
insure their seed supply for next
spring and to protect their live stock
feeding interests until the production
of sufficient supply from the pres
ent crop is assured; and that the stocks

normally.
Among the conditions making for
high corn prices, according to the De-
partment of Agriculture, are shortage
of the 1916 crop and the carry-over
from 1915, increased exports, increase
in the general level Of prices, and the
increased numbers of live stock on
farms. The 1916 corn crop, it is
pointed out, was 4O0,0OO,0O0 bushels
short of the 1915 crop, and stocks on
farms on March 1, 1917, were 300,-
900 900 bushels short Of the stocks
on farms on the same date the pre-
ceding year. The exports Of corn in
the year eended June 30, 1917, were
approximately 10 per cent. greater
than in the preceding year and about
seven times greater in the year ended
June 80, 1914, the year preceding the
war. The general level Of prices, it is
pointed out, has increased greatly dur
ing the last year, especially as regards

foodstuffs. Live stock in the United
States has increased about three mil
lion head in the past three years,
statistics Of the department show, and
so has helped to increase the demand
for corn for feeding purposes.
With short corn stocks, the depart
ment specialists point out, the highest
corn prices are naturally being reach

COUNTY FARMERS
Business Men Are Active-COuld Make

WILL BE ASKED TO AID IN
WHEAT SHORTAGE.
Letter Will Be Sent to All Farmers
in the County.

The farmers of Letiore County are
going to have to do their bit in the
fight now being waged by the United
States Government for the planting
of more wheat.
The committee now working on the
matter, composed of Messrs. W. P.
Weaver, F. Herr, J. D. Duncan, S.
F. Jones, J. R. O'Neal and G. A. Wade,
will hold a meeting today and COM
pose letter to be sent to every farm
er in the county.
Wants Billion Bushels.
Herbert Hoover says that the farm
ers in this country will have to raise
billion bushels of wheat newt year.
The crop in this county for the past
season was very light. 1t is said that
wheat raised in Lefore in 1914 is the
record yield for this county so far.
According to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, the proposed
acreage for Mississippi for 1917 is
100000 against $4,000 acres for the
year 1916.
Lefore County will have to increase
its acreage accordingly.
When the committee on the matter
finally get together on the let
ter to be sent out to the farmers, it
will also be published in The Daily
Commonwealth. 1t will probably son
tain much interesting information for
tie farmers, who are really patriotic
enough to do their part in not only
feeding the army of the United States,
our allies, but as we'll the people Of
Lefore County.
Why Not Install Flour Mills?
"The planting and growing of wheat
should also interest our farmers fin
ancially said one of the committee.
"The Government will see to it that
they will receive at least 81 BUSH
ell for the grain, and their receipts
should be large enough to at least
pay for the flour that they will be
compelled to purchase"
A number of farmers over the State
have installed flour mills during the
past eighteen months and in most
cases, they have been successful.
Sheriff T. C. CARROT has been oper-
ating a mill and the grain ground
there is known to make good grade
If -four. The bread, as we'll, can be
,lassed favorably with that made by
Jour from the North.
The flour mill idea is not so much
If a hobby as it is necessity.
Best to be Prepared.
According to government figures,
here is already a shortage OF 97,-
700 900 bushels of wheat in this coun-
.ry.
The wheat demand will probably be
he greatest that will be heard next
year.
In the Official Bulletin, Uncle Sans
newspaper, Secretary Redfeld recent
v told of the conditions in Europe and
;aid that in certain sections Of the
allied countries the railroads were
,yailable for commercial traffic only
me day in seven.
1t is remembered that last year in
,ome sections of this country the rail-
.oads were also tied up. With troops
o transport and other government
BUSINESS to handle above everything
Use, the railroads will naturally be
more rushed next year than they were

Therefore, the flour mill idea holds

He said that the declaration of

IF you are q supporter of the

cannot consistently support the
Junior Senator from Mississippi.
If you love your Country which

liberty and freedom, the blood

Harrison said that if Senator
Vardaman and those with whom
he stood had cooperated with the
administration in preparing this
country and in passing the Arm
ed Neutrality Bill Germany

of purpose to maintain our rights
and in all probability would have
