Bemidji Basketball
Schedule Appears To
Be Unsatisfactory'

Bemidji. Minn.. Dec. ,5.-Bemidji
high school basketball players have
begun practice for the coming season,
and the schedule Of games for the
winter as arranged by the high school
athletics committee Of the third ath-
letic district has been received, but
unless many changes are made In
the schedule for the Bemidji team,
1t is believed the locals will not play
the games arranged by the commit
tee as every contest has been ar
ranged in such manner as to make
it most unfavorable to the local boys
The arrangement Of games with the
weakest teams in the district has
caused intense dissatisfaction with tho
students here as Bemidji for many
years has boasted of one of the
strongest teams in the state and the
prospects this year are excellent.
The schedule as arranged by the
district committee is as follows: Be-
midji at Blackduck, December 20;
Park Rapids here, January 10; Walk
err here. January II: Bemidji at Cass
Lake, January "a: Bemidji at Ashley,
January 81: Brainerd here, February

Owing to the holiday OIL Thursday,
the weeks -four output naturally
showed q decline as compared with
that of the week before, but on the
whole the mills ran heavily. The de-,
mand was fair, though III some mar
kets 1t was quiet. Most of the mills
appear to have. plenty of. orders on

disturbed by the coal shortage than
by lack Of business. The scarcity Of

has seriously diminished flour. ship

The offer Of. the Grain Corporation
TO sell its export grade straight flour
at retail has had little: or no influ-
ence on the ma ,ket.. The price indi-
Gated is 75c per 12-lb bag, or $3.50

If the Gain Corporations plan sue

increased domestic market for

without materially affecting, the de-
mand for first patents. This straight
flour has always been on the market,
has not been widely offered at retail.
and there has been little call for, It
except from bakers.
The Wheat Supply. ~
Deliveries Of wheat last week were
smaller than ever. with the result
that many mills were forced to con-
slider curtailment of output as not
improbable before long. The bad
weather which prevailed over most Of
the country had something to do with
the reduced receipts, but the real
scarcity of frst-class milling wheat is
beyond question. Official figures show
that there Is plenty of wheat in re-
serve, such as it Is, but the quality
remains a matter of considerable
doubt. Unless some Of the wheat still
on the farms can be pried loose, and
proves to be Of better quality than is
generally believed. there appears to
be no reasonable prospect of lower
wheat prices, for the present at least.

managers for next season and they
week at the annual meeting of the

doubt as to who is to replace Hugo

Bert Shotton is to relieve Branch
