" an administrative arm OF INK SON-
eminent formed to buy grain or super
wise its sale at the prices determined
by the commission, and II must do its
work on the basis of the new grades.
But to return to our farmer and his
expectations of price.
introducing Two Bushels Of Wheat.
Lying side by side In his wagon had
been 2 bushels of wheat that fate had
marked for strangely different ends.
They were very much alike, those
bushels of wheat, and to look at them
you would moi have suspected the
strange and wonderful adventures in
store for them. Yet one was destined
to travel abroad for consumption in
France; the other to find its way into
Georgia, where 1t was milled and Its
-four finally reached a New York
baker on the East Side. But in the
sum OF the travels made by the two
as we shall follow them, will be I'M
folded the international panorama of
wheat marketing in time of war.
Finding a Price at a Country Point
High war costs of production gave
our Missouri farmer much concern as
to his returns and accounted for his
depression over the prospects of his
wheat grading down; for that meant
a reduction of 3'cents per bushel I'M
der the No. l grade. But it graded
No. 2.
The elevator would also deduct an
additional 8 cents a bushel to We the
fixed charge made In this locality for
handling and selling. The 5-cent
charge included the commission OF /
cent per bushel customary in 1917
among commission men for selling the
wheat to domestic millers or foreign
buyers.
The elevator man was none too sure
as to how to get at the price which
this wheat should bring. He knew
considerably more about human nature
than freight rates and decided t
CHECK up" the problem to the nearest
zone agent of the Grain Corporation.
So he wrote a letter to the representa-.
tive stationed at st. Louis. That let
ter was referred to the traffic eXper.
in the New York office, who transmit
ted the following rule for determining
the price of wheat at any country
point:
There Is only one price for wheat II
a country point. That price is Away Us
to be arrived at by taking as a basis
the price at the most advantageous
primary market where we have fixed
a price and deducting the freight to
that market and a fair handling profit.
That is the price to be paid for wheat
at any station, regardless Of the point
to which 1t may be shipped.
Working out the price which should
be paid for wheat at your station is
a fine occupation for an Off day. II
you cannot find the answer, write to
the Food Administration Grain Cor
poration In New York City and its
traffic expert will give you aid.

STREETS OF ELY ARE IN
DEP[ORABLE CONDITION

Now that Dame Nature has re-
moved her temporary covering from
the streets Of Ely, which made au-
tomoile travel rather pleasant for the
past two weeks, the of cars
are finding it hard to get accustomed
to a corrugated road bed.
There is very little need Of a spes6
limit through Ely or en- the road Is
tween the town and East Ely. The
driver who attempts a speed much
greater than four miles an hour is
taking chances of either going to the
hospital or the repair shop.
Experts on roads are OF the opin-
ion that when the surface of the
streets are in a soft condition it is
a practical thing to scrape off the
crown and fill in with a good quality
of cracked rock and insure for many
years a good solid road.
Good roads and streets in a city
are just as sure a sign of health and
general good condition as q smooth
clear complexioIe is in man. AS this
bad piece of road through the city
of Ely is a part of the Lincoln high
way, it is hoped repairs will be made
in the near future.
