rect supervision. Inc Corporation
charges each miller per cent Of the
value Of the wheat he grinds to cover
the costs of administering the cor
poration for the $4,000 200 capital il
to be returned to the United States
Treasury, unimpaired.
j. The agreement has its compensa-
ton, however, for the policy of Uncle
Sam Is to provide each mill with all
wheat possible. To do so, every mill
signing up was required to furnish an
estimate of Its possible milling capaci-
ty for the season. This nationwide
survey of milling capacities, when bal
anced against the available supply of
wheat, enables the Grain Corporation
to equalize supplies in way never
done before. In fact, the schedule Of
prices arranged for the primary mar
kets had for an. object this equaliza-
ton. For instance, if the proprietor

The New York jobber took for his
own, in this case, profit Of so cents
per barrel. He sold part of this ship
ment to a retail merchant.
This merchant did a small business
and was not licensed, but even here
was another social check. For the
retail merchants Of the large cities
and those of many small cities and
towns find each morning and after
noon in the daily papers a price list
for flour and other commodities which
are considered fair by the Federal
Food Administrator for their State.
These prices are usually arrived at
through the machinery of the whole
salers' and the retailers organizations.
The retailer also discovered that the
jobber who sold him this -four was
keenly interested in the prices paid by
the consumer. For the Food Admins
trati0n has discovered an indirect

means of control of the retailer by
making the jobber a voluntary police
man to his customer. The jobber is
licensed to sell only to traders who
deal fairly, and If it should turn out
that a jobber persists in doing busi-
ness with retailers guilty Of profiteer-
Ing in staples under control the Food
Administration has and may exercise
the right to revoke the license Of the
jobber.
The other part of this shipment con.
tanned our second bushel of wheat and
went over to the East Side into a small
bakery. which quickly made it into
creamy loaves. These loaves were
placed in groceries and delicatessens
and the next day were eaten by hun
CRY little boys and girls with dark
eyes and big noses and quaint ways.
Brings Out Startling Truths.
Government control has brought out
these startling truths:
More people unnecessarily make
their living out Of wheat distribution
than was suspected. Thousands and
thousands of little spectators have
had to turn elsewhere for livelihood.
A number OF commission men have
had to close shop. There are places
where elevators should be built and
other places where there are too many
elevators The Government, dominat-
ing the wheat market, carries it's own
marine Insurance. Wheat handlers at
terminals have had their activities re-
stricted.
But most of all It is interesting to
see how the price Of flour per barrel
tumbled from the time Uncle Sam took
a positive hand in the matter. The
Food Administration has recently COM
pleted an interesting chart on the
prices of wheat and bulk -four at Min
neapolis. In statement of Novem-
Der &c, the Food Administration says:
The farmer received for the 1916 har-
vest between $1.45 and $3.50 per bushel
for the harvest. taking the country by
large and =. Last year he received
under 20 per cent Of the price Of the loaf
Today he is receiving over 40 per cent Of
the money paid for the cash loaf. this
being the result of the sterilization of
prices and the total elimination of hoard
ing and speculation in this industry
The statement reports that farmers
on November 26 were receiving with
freight charges included from the ter
ritory represented to Minneapolis, ap-
I proximately $3.50 for ~ bushels Of
wheat. The price Of bulk -four at the
Minneapolis mill is about $1O.25 per
barrel, showing that the miller is now
receiving about Is cents per barrel,
which must include both his operating
expenses and profit.
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1918-04-19

half that of year ago, or 100000, 900
bushels less. It was nothing short of
master strategy.
The total number of bushels pur-
chased by the Grain Corporation from
the time it commenced activities to
February 1 is 97,276,145.59. Arranged
by months, the purchases in bushels
were: September, 7,841, 209.20; Octo-
Der, 19,359,646.59 November, 30,920,-
O74.26, December, 21,456. 249.06. and
January. 17,69S966OS.
During July and August our flour
exports were about the same as in the
same two months of 1916; but In Sep
TENDER, October, and November, the
expectation was so per cent larger
than year ago. So the Grain Cor
poration has discharged our o5liga.
tons to the allies and restored our
flour reserves, which is the larger as.
pect of the question.

buy on the open market.
About the same time our cooperative
elevator manager had listed a shipment
with his terminal representatives.
highly reputable commission firm, also
under Grain Corporation license. This
firm caught wind of the Georgia order
and secured permission to sell the Mis-
souri, wheat. The second bushel was
among those poured into car and
hustled along to its destination. This
shipment did not pass through any
terminal market. It moved straight
to Atlanta, where it went between the
rollers of the mill.
Controlling the Jobber by License.
Now, the flour which came from our
second bushel of wheat was rolling
serenely along in another direction,
but the car was diverted by special or
der of the U. s. Food Administrator
and received by large wholesale job
Der in New York City. This jobber
also does business under a Food Ad-
ministration license, but administered
by the distribution division; Under H.
cense terms the jObbers must sell at
a fair profit only, although the exact
amount of this profit is not determin-
ed, the Food Administration reserving
the right in each case to call a halt
when a licensee has gone "the limit"

the Grain Corporation was making
large purchase for the Allies and was
utilizing it's knowledge of available
stocks by having on the job a trans
portation strategist-Edward Cham
bers, vice president Of the Santa Fe.
Mr.. Chambers was assisting the Food
Administration and has a remarkable
"way with him." Even before he was
called to assist Mr.. McAdoo, the Direc-
tor General, his suggestions to the rail-
roads had wonderful effect in dis
couraging their hesitancy as to finding
available cars and in clearing up con-
gestions that looked as though they
never could be uncongested.
How Uncle Sam Keeps the Whip
Ease in getting the needed cars was
one of the advantages enjoyed by this
particular elevator after signing the
voluntary agreement which ceded to
the Grain Corporation the right to con-
troll storage and direct shipments and
sales of all wheat bought by the pro-
prietor.
While voluntary, this agreement Is
almost compulsory since railroads give
priority recognition to Grain Corpora
ton requests for cars; and elevators
or mills outside the official fold must
''rustle'' for themselves. In return the
Government guarantees the elevator
proprietor against losses and protects
him in every way as to price and pays
him rentals for all storage space reQui-
sitiOned by it.
All elevators, local and terminal,
must take out licenses or face shut
down. What is the power of the Ii.
cense? It requires the operator to lay
all cards on the table as to his busi-
ness dealings. For the time Of the
war the elevator becomes public util-
ity and it's proprietor must furnish in
formation as to his business at any
time when required by the Grain Cor
poration Each week he must make
and mail reports showing the amount
of wheat, rye, or their derivatives, pur-
chased, stored. and shipped
Under present license terms, the IL
censee can keep on hand for only 30
NIT, any stocks of these grains or
their derivatives. He is also forbid
den to contract for the sale Of any
product which can not be delivered
within 80 days after the contract is
made. A.
How the Wheat Was ,MiIled.
Away went our bushel of wheat on
its journey to the terminal, where it
met other bushels Of wheat from all
parts Of the territory that fed this
market. There it was regarded for
special requirements, marked for i'm
mediate milling and rolled on to a
large mill in Illinois. The miller
bought the wheat from the Grain Cor
poration, for each miller in the Unit
ed States is under license Also and
most Of them have filed out another
voluntary agreement which binds them
either tC purchase all supplies from
the Grain Corporation or under ito d.

period in 1915 In September, October
and November, under the supervision
of the Food Administration, flour pro-
duction was III per cent Of the same
period in 1915. What this means in the
great national situation, with depleted
domestic flour reserves and clamoring
foreign buyers, can hardly be over
emphasized, when movement of wheat
into primary markets has been hardly

mako. They also tend to correct !
many abuses prevalent in the past,
such as cutthr0at methods adopted by
mills to secure supplies and indiscrimi-
nate moving of wheat to terminals. /
! For all practical purposes the wheat
business Of the country is apportioned, ,
and whenever possible mills are sup
piled from wheat in the territory near
est them. This policy has for an OBJ
tation. In another way saving is
made: Formerly large quantities Of
undergrade wheats have been difficult
to dispose of on account Of unco-ordi-
mated purchase of the competing mills 7
but under Uncle Sans domination
each bushel Of wheat must now 20
somewhere. and the poorer wheat will
move just as freely as the more de-
sirable grades.
Limiting MilIers' Profits.
The Illinois miller who received the
carlot containing our bushel of wheat
milled it promptly and shipped it's flour
to port for expectation. The miller
was permitted by the Food Admins,
tration to make fair profit, not ex-
ceeding maximum of 20 cents per
barrel on the -four and a maximum
profit Of so cents per ton on the feed
stuffs left over All mills. however,
must furnish at regular intervals to
the Milling Division full statements OF
manufacturing costs, which are scru-
tinted carefully. The derivatives OF
this wheat the miller sold for domes-
tic consumption, as the policy OF the
Government is to keep in the Unl,ed
States all available feedstuffs in order
to encourage livestock production.
