Rains of Sunday Relieve
Pasture and Wheat Land

Over the greater portion OF north
ern Nebraska, South Dakota and a
large part of Wyoming, rain has
been falling since Sunday night, is
the report that comes to the rail-
roads. Out in the state, north of
the Platte, it has been raining since
early morning. Nowhere is it a
dashing rain, but instead, a contin-
uous downpour and is all soaking
into the ground.
In portions of Wyoming and in
the Black Hills country of South Da-
kota there was considerable snow
during the night, with temperatures
down to freezing.
The Burlington reports light rain
over a considerable part of its Ne
braska territory last week, enough
to revive the pasturage and in some
localities put the ground in fairly
good condition for the sowing of
winter wheat.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS
War Prices Move Downward as Hopes

Chicago. Sept. 3O.-Hopes Of a speedy
general peace captivated traders today

tinuous heavy selling and an extreme
break of Use. the corn market closed

Oats showed a setback Of IL 92Ec. In
provisions the result varied from 81 de-
cline to 15c advance.
Belief that the corn market was far
too high on a peace basis dominated the
pit as soon as business got we'll under
way At first the chief influence was
the news that the signing of an armistice
had made Bulgaria's surrender complete.
This contingency had been largely dis
counted beforehand, however, and quick
rally followed sharp breaks with which
the market opened. Then came word of
unexpected rapid forward sweeps by the
entente allies, and of signs that peace
move by Turkey, if not by Austria. might
apparently soon be looked for. Pressure
to liquidate holdings now assumed big
proportions and throughout the rest of
the day all support was lacking except
from shorts which had profits.
Oats and provisions succumbed to the
same factors that carried down corn.
Theories that peace talk was bullish as
to provisions failed to work.

FOOD HEAD URGES
$3.50 AS FAIR
FIGURE FOR HOGS
Administrator WattIes Ex'
plains His Departments
Position With Respect
to Price of Swine.

Eighteen dollars, 50 cents pei
hundred. Chicago market basis, is a
fair average price which should be
paid producers for hogs during DC.
tober, according to announcement
OF Gurdon w. Wattles, federal food
administrator for Nebraska
Mr. Wattles MAKES this statement
to correct an incorrect report re-
garding the price of hogs. The fair
price was announced by the food ad-
ministration, following a report by
its committee, on the Interpretation
of the order last November, sug-
costing price per hundred of IS
times the value of corn fed to pigs
now ready to market.
Minimum of $3.50.
The food administration also
states that it is its intention to
maintain the minimum of $3.50,
continuously during the war.
The committee recommendations
were:
1T is recognized that the food
administration has no power to
fix the price of hogs or corn and
can only influence the hog price so
far as the volume of controlled or
ders for the army, navy, allies and
export trade will absorb the surplus
production.
IF prices should go so high as to
curtail consumption at home and
abroad, then in this event the
sterilization of prices during the
next winter would be likely to fall,
with disaster to the producer.
"On the other hand it must be
recognized that the costs of produc-
ton are necessarily greater and that
to maintain production, fair returns
must be assured the producer.
1T is therefore in the funda-
mental interest of the producer and
consumer that extreme high and
low prices should be guarded
against.
Dealing With the Packer.
"In order to carry out this policy,
it is recommended in dealing with
the packer in respect to the CO.
ordinated purchase of pork pro-
ducts that directions should, if nee
essary, include definite price basis
in advance from month to month
for the packers purchase of hogs,
upon which such orders will be
based.
1T is further recommended that
the average cost per bushel of corn
for the purpose of determining the
price of hogs be considered at the
average farm value of corn or the
average selling price of corn at
local railroad stations as determined
by the Department of Agriculture,
and that the general corn figures
be arrived at by taking these aver
ages and weighing them according
to production over the eight lead
ing hog and corn producing states
for a period of five months pre-
ceding the month the hogs are
marketed or prior to the month for
which directions are given the pack
ars.
Prices of hogs should be calcu-
lated on the average of packers
drives at Chicago.
"On this general policy, it was
agreed that the Chicago price
should be $3.50 for October. 1t
cannot be expected that the day-to-
lay market price, with the fuctuat-
ng flow of demand and supply, can
De maintained at any fixed figure,
out it should be the aim to MAIN
ain the average during the month"
