CONTROL BINDER TwINE.
Food Administration Arlanges tt
Care for 1913 SuDDly.

Washington, Jan. THE food
administration has arranged to con-
troll during 1918 the supply of bind
er twine so important to farmers
particularly those of the granger
states. Reasonable prices-thougl
not SO low as former ones, are ex-
pected.
This control will be effected
through voluntary agreements the
binder twine makers have made with
the food administration which will
centraliZe the buying and eliminate
competition. Henry Wolfer, former
warden of the Minnesota state peni.
tentiary, where he built the largest
binder twine manufactury in the
world, will have charge Of the work
in the food administration.
An official announcement today
says the food administration ar
rangements will stabilize prices, pre-
vent undue advances, eliminate
waste, speculation and boarding, and
give the product to the ultimate
consumer at the lowest price pos
sible.
1t gives warning, however, that
high costs of materials and reason
able differentials for manufacturing
will not permit the price to be as
low as in former years.
