Whe, the cotton seed SEASON opened
last fall the price was around $40 per
ton to the producer at his home station.
The food administration at once fixed
the market price arornd $50 per ton,
causing the farmer to lose at least $40
per ton on his seed crop, one OF the I'M
portant money crops of the southern
states. With slight variation this price
has been mali tanned by the food admini-
stration since then until last week when
all restrictions were removed. Before
the food administration took action on
the price of seed and seed products last
fall, manufacturers of lard substitutes
out of cotton seed oil were satisfied
with a profit of cent and a half to
three quarters per pound on the oil,
the food administration raised their
profit allowance t. five and half cents
per pound and lard substitutes went up
on reduced seed prices in instead OF
down as would seem natural. Now the
seed crop is gone from the producer
and the oil is in the hands of the lard
substitute manufacturer and the food
administration removes all restrictions
as to prices of seed products and the
price Of lard substitutes again advances.
Pretty tough on the seed grower. that
the .. ice Of his seed is reduced.

Much criticism has been heard ir the

what is the condition Of the crops OF

for nearly every criticism came from
a farmer. Weather conditions the

not a lick of work could be done on

When one calls the local telephone
exchange he might as we'll make up
his mind to spend five minutes getting
an answer, for it generally takes that
much time and several rings to get the
answer, and in saying this no criticism is
intended for the local exchange or local
operators. There is not sufficient help
in the exchange to handle the business
and service can never be improved ur-
oil more help is allowed there. Patrons
are paying for service that costs thS m
