Wheat Acreage % Per Cent Short.

Wheat Acreage % Per Cent Short.
Mr.. Howard reported that the best
estimate showed the wheat acreage,
was % per cent short because of the
agitation against the producer.
Now non-producers of crops are de-
string a continuation of price fixing
on wheat. Nothing but a strong
organization of farmers can prevent
this. Such a move will only make
matters worse. The chances are that
in the central West pork, beef and
corn will likewise come up short.
The level of high prices will never be
reached until somebody demands a
stop to such foolishness. The coun-
try had best take its medicine for
tampering with prices and make the
best of still higher prices for 1920,
that production may again become
normal.
Farm Bureau Membership
The Farm Bureaus have import
ant functions in these questions.
This is the golden opportunity for
agriculture. All Farm Bureaus are
increasing their membership. 1t is
hoped Jefferson will do its part.

NOTICE TO OUR SUBSCRIBERS.

After january /, 1920, the sub
scription price of the Spirit of JEFF
ferson will be S1.25 a year to all
subscribers in Jefferson county, and
$3.50 a year to all those whose adj
dress is outside Of Jefferson County.
It is with great reluctance that we
announce this advance, as it has al
ways been our aim to keep the SUBJ
seription price Of the Spirit of
jefferson as low as possible. But
paper, other material, labor and
nearly everything else going toward
the making of paper has about
doubled, and it is impossible for US
to absorbe all this increase in the cost
of production without advancing the
subscription price, and we have no
doubt that cur subscribers will re-
alize the reanonableness of our do
ing so.
The reason that we make the price
higher outside of the County than in
the County, is that under the zone
postal rates it costs US considerable
more to mail papers outside of the
county Assuring our subscribers
that we value their patronage very
highly, and that we are only raising
the pr4ce because we are compelled
to do so, we take this occasion to
thank them for past favors, and hope
that they will continue to receive the
Spirit of Jefferson in the years to
come
