THE WHEAT PRICE EXPLAINED

Although there has been much
said by way OF explaining the gov
ernment price OF wheat many peo-
pie arestill asking for information
on the subject. and this is not at all
strange for the problem OF price
fixing by the government is entiree-
ly new to our country.
The price now is s2.20 at Chica-
90 for No. l. wheat OF the different
varieties. This price was de;eTmin-
ed by committee of twelve selected
by the President. the membership
OF the committee being composed Of
two prominent economists. two rep
resentatives OF organized labor. two
representatives OF big business. two
presidents OF state agricultural col
leges. three representatives OF organ
lied agriculture and one individual
farmer. There were on the commit
tee four men actually engaged in
farming.
The price OF s22O for No. wheat
at Chicago is price fixed for the
1917 crop and will not be changed
before July l, 1918. The govern
ment will buy all wheat offered at
that price. provided there are no
other buyers who will pay that
much. but not permit any buyer to
pay more. So that. althouh the gov
hn oil NJ ho
wheat yet this price is fixed price
that will be paid by all buyers and
which will be made neither more
nor less.
In the legislation establishing
food control the Congress placed a
minimum guaranteed price on the
1918 wheat crop. This minimum,
below which the price cannot go. is
$500. but is based on "the principal
interior markets" and moot Chicago
alone which means that the price
cannot go below $500 at any one OF
those principal primary markets"
such as Minneapolis, Omaha. Kan
sas City. etc.
The price OF $500 is only a mini
mum guarantee. 1t will become ef
fective July l, 1918. and continue
in effect until May l. 1919. 1t will
not be withdrawn or changed. 1t Is
not rule OF the Food Administra-
tion, but an act OF Congress. No
matter haw large the crop raised
next year may be. IL there are not
other buyers for the wheat who will
give $500 the government must take
it at that price. On the other hand
il costs OF production increase or
there is light yield. or IL for any
other reason the costs of production
are unduly high or the demand very
urgent, the price may be above 50. 90
as 1t is now
The present price of $2.2O is a
fixed price that will not be changed
in any way until July 1. 1918. The
S2.O0price for next year is only a
minimum. The actual price for
next year can not be less than that
but it may be $500 or more

she was pluCked, never to suffer
from sin and sorrow again.
Sadie was a dear, good girl and
all that knew her loved her. She
was a kind, studious pupil in
school, ever willing to do that which
she could, never shirking from a
hard lesson. She was an obedient
and loving child to her homefolks,
and was a light in their household.
But God needed this light to illum-
mate a spot in that heavenly home.
How hard it was to give her up
when she tried so hard to get well,
and how we miss her from the
home and from the school.
Sadie, dear, how we miss her,
For her voice we cannot hear;
But some day we will be with her,
In that home where comes no tear.
On September s, 1902, she glad
dened the hearts of her parents and
on January %, 1917, the hearts
once sladdened we're saddened and
Sadie was called away. She was
buried in the Hopewell cemetery
She leaves a father, mother, three
sisters, five brothers and a host of
friends to mourn her loss. Weep
not, dear ones, but prepare to meet
her in the skies.
A precious one from US has gone
A loving voice is stilled;
A place is vacant in the home.
Which never can be filed.

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that science
has been able to cure in all stages,
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure IS the only positive cure known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being constitutional disease, re-
quires a constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken intern
ally, acting directly upon the blood

thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the consti-
tuition and assisting nature in do
ing its work. The proprietors have

Gratis, Gronna of North Dakota,
Works of California and LaFollette
of Wisconsin, republicans, In his
address on the resolution Senator
Kirby said, in part;
"G regard this as a preliminary
declaration Of war, if the resolution
shall be voted upon favorably to-
day. do not believe that the time
has come in the history of this
country when we shall side with
Germany or when we shall side
with the allies. Under the consti-
tuition and law the president has no
power to declare war, but he has
the power to plunge the nation into
war and to make it necessary for
congress to declare it, and he has
almost done So"
