"a FAIR PRICE FOR WHEAT
"Don't Let EN- Bluff You" Writes
Farmer to Governor Capper. NJ

Topeka, Aug. 24.-Farmers near
Sylvia who want the government to
fix the price of wheat at IS pei
bushel, claiming that they cannot
produce it at a profit at So per bush
ell, are not looked upon as especially
patriotic by those trying to raise the
army. They are accused OF being
wheat hogs.
In view OF the clamor for S. wheat
the following telegram from west
ern Kansas man sounds refreshing:
Il was raised on farm. Have
been raising wheat for the last TWEEN
ty years; Sc per bushel for No. 2
hard wheat at the country elevators
is a fair price to producer and con-
sumner, Present cry for higher price
is instigated and fostered by food
spectators who bought large stores
at higher price, expecting to extort
enormous profits. AS usual, farmers
are playing into their hands. A big
crop will be sowed on So basis.
This message was received by
Governor Capper and he was urged
not to be bluffed by the Sylvia farm
ers into boosting for S. wheat.

Storing Potatoes.

1t is evident that farmers respond
ed to the demand for an increase in
the potato acreage last spring, fol
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture estimates that this year s
crop will amount to $4,000, 900
bushels as compared with as, ooo, 900
last year, indicating an increase OF
So per cent. This ought to 60 a
long ways toward making it possible
for everybody to eat potatoes again.
After a big crop has been produced
the next important thing is to find
ways and means of storing it. and of
keeping losses from decay down to a
minimum. 1t is not difficult to store
potatoes, provided diseased tubers
are not mixed with the healthy stock.
Those carrying disease not only rot
in comparatively short time but
they also transmit the disease to adj
joining tubers thus injecting the
whole lot. In view of this it is of ut
most Importance to as nearly as pos
sible eliminate all diseased tubers
from those to be stored. Tubers hav-
ing bruised skins should also be dis
carded.
In regard to storing potatoes in
pits w. Fl. Lawrence, of the Univer-
sity of Missouri, sends the following
directions:
Select high place in the field
which will afford surface drainage Of
<ainfall. If possible, locate the pit
near a tree or other shelter where |
it will be shaded during the hot hours |
of the day. Scoop out several inches
of soil, down to solid earth, from m
area large enough to receive the po-
tatoes. Add layer of potatoes
about one foot deep each day, prefer
ably during early morning when the
Of the tubers is low.
Keep the pit covered from day to
day with a tarpaulin or blanket to ex-
clude dew or rain. The potatoes
should not be piled more than four
to six feet high. When the pit is
finished it should be- covered with
layer of straw, deep enough to ex-
clude light and heat. Weight the.
straw with boards to. prevent the
wind from blowing it away. An
opening should be left at the top to
provide ventilation and to permit the
escape of excess moisture and heat
rom the pile Of potatoes. 1t is also
advisable to cover the pit with a tenn.
,orary shed that will turn rain. IT
he LOCATION is such that surface wat
r. will not drain away readily; dig
hallow ditch around the pit to pro-
tide an outlet so that the water
which runs into it can escape. [.
The pit must be covered with
arth before freezing weather. About :
welve inches of soil will be neces-
airy to protect the potatoes. This
oil should be. placed on top OF the
and Steekman. :

Farmers Attention.

Wheat campaign for Bates County.
The need of bumper crop of
wheat in the state Of Missouri for
1918 is very urgent at the present
time as our export of wheat to the
Allies is about four times its normal
volume, as wheat Is one of the most
necessary needs of the warning coun-
tries. -.
In the face of the fact that the sup
ply OF wheat on hands is very made
quate and that the government has
guaranteed a minimum price of two
dollars per bushel for the coming
crop it surely behooves the farmer to
put forth an extraordinary effort to
produce bumper crop of wheat the
coming year.
Under the provisions OF recently
enacted legislation the Agricultural
Extension Service in Cooperation
with the County Council of Defense
and Farm Bureau Board has arranged
to put on wheat campaign in Bates
county. This campaign will consist
of series of meetings scattered over
the county in such a manner that they
will be most accessible to the farm
ers. At these meetings there will Be
representative Of the College of Ag-
riculture whose sole duty will be to
talk Wheat, giving the most ap-
proved methods of seeded prepara-
ton, date and depth of seeding, use
of fertilizers, Hessian fly and smut
control methods. etc. He will also be
able to give information as to where
the farmers may secure good, clean
seed wheat which is best adapted to
this county. The dates and places of
these meetings are as follows
