 Tn the corn pit the central fact to be that rural holders gave no evi- dence of being more inclined to sell and that on the contrary corn was still being fed freely on farms.

 In the provision market the stimu- Jus of huge exports together with corn strength operated as more than an offset for big receipts of hogs.

North Dakota, chairman OF the agri-

Extension OF the act TO apply 10

ney general. He also asked for the
punishment OF fine OF not more
than 5000 or imprisonment OF not
more than two years, or both for
those who restrict the production OF
food Under the terms OF the food
control act az II is now drawn there
are provisions which prohibit any re-
