STATEMENT ON THE
HANDLING OF WHEAT

Several statements have recently
appeared in daily and grain trade
papers indicating that the department
of agriculture is anxious to take
charge 81 the work OF carrying out
the guaranteed price on the 1919
wheat crop These. statements mis-
represent Abe @ttttude Of the depart,
hi 81 81 ~ t;esSsY' W psS
The department OF agriculture, after
this country entered the war. took the
position that emergency food activities
or commercial nature should be
directed by an emergency agency, and
therefore participated In framing the
food control act giving the president
power to create such an agency.
The food administration and its
grain corporation were set up under
the act ard they have handled the
whea. guarantees from the beginning.
The secretary Of agriculture has as
sumed until recently that these agen-
cies would, without question, continue
to handle the wheat guarantees until
the emergency passed and the law
ceased to bc in operation. He still
believes that 1t would be desirable for
the grain corporation to continue to
function ana close out the matter.
The corporation has gained much
valuable experience during the war
and should he able to deal with the
problem as effectively az any other es-
adjustment. The recent wheat guar
anty act seems to contemplate that
this agency would continue to act.
Among other things, II authorizes the
president to use any existing agency
or agencies and to utilize any depart
ment of The government, including, of
course, the Food Administration Grain
corporation.
1t would be difficult for any other
existing agency now to set up the
requisite machinery especially in view
of the short time intervening before
the 1919 crop movement begins, and
even il y were to undertake to do so.
Some Embarrassment would undoubt-
ed!y result. because two agencies. over
a part Of tho period. would be deal
ing with wheat,

HOW SICK ANIMALS
DOCTOR THEMSELVES

Few people realize how many ami.
mails are constantly getting hurt and
sick. The wild animals seldom get
sick from what they eat. hut the do
mestic animals frequently do. Wild
animals get injured from ftghting with
other animals of their lind or in
fights with animal enemies. In all
cases, animals have a way Of doctor
ing themselves that Is remarkable.
