WHEAT.

The administration has decided to maintain
the governments guarantee OF wheat at TWO
dollars and twenty-six cents bushel as reserve
protection so it is stated against higher price
later on.
There is difference of opinion as to the effect
iof This guarantee on the cost of living Experts
Gre divided on the question:; but the general
conviction. as far as can be gathered from the
press seems to be that the fixed cost OF wheat
lis a fundamental factor in keeping prices high
ION everything else. 1t is argued that it keeps
the price of other cereals up and thus the cost
of meat, hides, leather, shoes, wool and other
things Animals fattened on costly grain must
bring high prices; and a fall IN the price OF
wheat would pull innumerable other pr1ces
down.
Manifestly the government must 1--we up 10
it's agreement with the farmers that they should
have two dollars and twenty-slx cents bushel
for their wheat. Tt has been suggested that the
government take the entire crop at that price,
having out of the treasury the difference be-
tween two dollars and twenty six cents and the
world price. determined by competition with
iCanada Argentina and Australia Then our
government should supply our millers at this
world or export price and prosecute them II
