COTTON MARKET
Short Crop Forces Government to
Consider Sterilization of Prices

WASHINGTON.-The war indust.
ries board, with the approval of Pre-
sident Wilson, is soon to appoint a
committee to consider the desirable
ity and feasibility Of effecting sta
bilization of cotton prices and other
matters connected with handling the
crop. This was announced tonight
by Chairman Baruch.
1.-The announcement of another
short crop Of cotton" said Mr..
Baruchs' statement. "raises in acute
form the problem of satisfying the
needs Of the nation, as well as those
of the allies and of securing an
equitable distribution for the pur-
pose of winning the war. Involved
in the distribution is the problem of
bringing about a reasonable .stabili-
cation of prices to the interest of
both the producer and consumer"
Mr.. Bartch said the committee to
be appointed will study the present
cotton situation, the problems of dis
the marketing Of low-grade
cottOns and the desirability and
feasibility Of effecting a sterilization
Of prices"
The committee will hold hearings
at convenient points.

FIXED WHEAT PRICE FOR 1919
Farmers who are considering how
much fall wheat they will sow, and
how much effort they will make to
get the ground in condition for
spring wheat are advised that the
price for the 1919 wheat crop has
been fixed at the $2.2O price, the
same as at present. a3l
This undoubtedly means that all
the wheat grown next year will be
taken over by the government or the
dealers under government protection

LOOKS BAD FOR MARGARET

few days ago We received tele-
gram from woman suffrage head
. quarters in Washington, D. c., stat
ing that Mrs. Margaret Cakes of En-
nett, Idaho, had been arrested and
imprisoned for participation in suf-
frage demonstration in that city, and
requesting us to protest. Nothing
doing. If Margaret hasn't any more
sense than to go gallavanting over
the country and making a show Of
herself in these war times, the Wash
lngton police can run her in and keep
her on the rockpile for forty years
for all we care.
II Margaret belongs to Emmet-
which we very much doubt as no one
seems to know her-she is no credit
TO this town. Her sisters here are
too busy in helping to win the war to
have any sympathy for woman who
shirks. They call such women slack
ers here. .@
The fact of the matter is, impris-
onment is light punishment for
Margaret and her stripe. She, with
others, was arrested for sedition-
for the display of banner condemn
ing the president of the United States
and likening the senate to the Ger
man reichstag, for its failure thus
far in the present session to adopt
the constitutional amendment resolu-
ton granting suffrage to women.
The suffrage cause is not only helped.
but is harmed by such displays of
and disloyalty. We hope

BADEX is pure Corn product,

about 1O% less yeast than normal.
Formula No. 2 Use 12 1-2% BADEX, IL 1-2% Corn,

With this formula about half the normal

On account of the color and nature of BADEX,
