Sioux City, April S.-The federal
food administration has announced it
will locate a federal wheat buyer here,
a buyer who will buy for the United
States and its allies. At the same time
the announcement came from Wash
ington that grain rates from here to
the seaboard are to be made the same
as from Omaha and Minnea polls, thus
making it convenient to move much of
the grain grown in North and South
Dakota, southern Minnesota and
northern Nebraska thru this port.
These two announcements make it
seem certain two or three more eIeva-
tors of large capacity will be erected
here during the next few months, in
time for handling the 1918 crop.

girls have proven their ability to do
many tasks. Railroad work is di-
versified, and offers a field for the
women who are dependent upon
themselves. and it affords openings
for others to replace the men who
have heard the call.
Rest periods are allowed the wom-
en- twice daily, and their comfort is
looked after by the management. 1t
is interesting to note that the ladies
devote their rest time to knitting for
the soldiers and sailors. They are
patriotic and willing to do their bit
for their country in any way posi-
BILE. They encourage enlistments by
announcing their willingness to
work, rather than go on record as
dependents, and their splendid patri-

FUNDS NEEDED TO
INSURE SEED STOCK

Corvallis, Ore, Jan. 23.--Another
step in insuring ample stocks of seed
for the increased food production
called for by the United States gov
ernment is the request by Secretary
Houston for congressional appropri-
alton of six million dollars to buy
seed, test it, and distribute it to farm
ers at a reasonable price. In a let
ter to Director Center, chairman of
the Oregon seed stocks committee,
the secretary says:
The seed situation still presents
many difficulties. Under a former
appropriation large stocks of corn.
cotton and sorghum seed were provid-
ed to farmers in the drouth-stricken
districts of the south, and now, If the
money is provided, like action is to
be taken for other portions of the
country. Farmers must have help in
meeting the seed situation If produc-
tion is to be maintained.
Director Center says that when
funds are provided the federal de-
partment, through the Oregon seed
stock committee. will locate, test, buy
and store seed off the most important
crops as needed, and sell same to
farmers at cost where the need is
greatest. a great deal of seed was
distributed last year by this method,
with the exception that no funds were
available TO buy surplus stocks and
II was not always possible to handle
them for this reason. Another ad
vantage of the new method will be
the testing of all seeds at the o. A.
C. and U. S. seed-testing laboratory
at the college, so that farmers will
know the quality of all seed bought
under the appropriation.
