GOVERNMENT TO PAY $2.25
AND SILL WHEAT FOR SIPS

Washington, Teb IL While the
farmer world De paid the 1925 gov
ernm MT qua antee FOR the 1919
wheat crop the wheat would be sold
to the consumer a. a price to be die
ltated by tie 'aw Of supply and de-
mand un le legislation approved
tonight by the Fouse agricultural
committee The government would
lose the differ ence between the pur-
chase and 0ale prices.
With the government given abso-
lutte control of the wheat market in
the United States, members of the
committee SAID, it world be difficult
to determine what would be the
price if the Usual law of supply and
demand were in operation, but they
thought it would be based largely on
the world market price. Some wit
nesses wha lave testified at hearings
before the committee have predicted
a world pric; Of 81 rs bushel.
| On the hasis Of such price the
government would stsnd a loss Of
about 81 a bushcl, blt committee
members would rot venture a pre-
diction as 70 what the total loss
might be, as forecasts of the 1919
crop depe3d UPON many factors. The
crop is estimated row at about
/ 900, 0000GU bushels.
The bill approved bv the commit
tee is a substitute for that presented
by the food administration and de-
partmant Of agriculture. 1t gives
the president discretionary powers
to continue the present agency for
handling the wheat crap or create
"a new one. and aprcpiates $1,000
100000 as a revolving fund to carry
out the 2uarentet.
Members o. the committee believe
that a regulatory body similar to
the food administration and a COM
mercial agency like Che United States
Grain Corporation viii be necessary
to enable the government to take
over and DISPOSE Of the crop
Licensing system similar to that
now N effect, Placing all agencies

contr,l is authorized by The bill, and
whatever agency the PRESIDENT may
will he given lroad powers

THE TEACHER, HER SALARY
AND HER VARIED TASKS

A school teacher is one who teach
es things to people when they are
young. She comes to the school at
1870 am, and when she has gotten
enough pupils together for mess
she teaches them writing, reading,
geography, grammar, music, draw
ing, cooking, beard-sawing, crochet
ing, deep breathing, birdcalls, scien-
tific eating, patriotism plain and
fancy bathing, forestry, civics and
other numerous sciences.
After school she remains with five
or six Of the worst scholars, and tries
to save the state the job of reform
ling them into good ciizns lrtea
ing them into good citizens later on.
Then she hurries home to make a
new dress and snatch bite of sup
per before going out to attend lee
ture by an imported specialist on
the tribal law in Patagonia, to gain
some information that is thought to
be useful to her Then she sits UP
until daylight correcting the daily
test papers.
The teachers salaries range from
$50 per month up but not far
enough up to make them dizzy. On
the salary she must dress nicely, buy
Inecessaries for her work, go to TWEEN
ty-nine lectures year, pay her way
to the teachers Institutes, and try
to get some enjoyment in the SUM
mer vacation out of the rest of her
salary.
Then she is expected to store up
enough money so that when no long
er able to teach she may live hap
PLY ever after on her income.
