important that our farmers, as soon

Concerning the guaranteed mini

Fod Administrator, II. A. Morgan.
has issued the following bulletin to
county food administrators:
President Wilson has issued a pro-
clamation the same minimum price
for wheat for the crop of 1919 that
was guaranteed for the crop of 1918,
that is, 1920 per bushel. Accom-
panying his proclamation the Presi-
dent issued a memorandum stating
that before the next harvest dis
interested commission would be ap-
pointed by him to ascertain the in
creased cost of farm labor and sup
plies, and that from this information
he would determine whether there
should be an increase in price above
