Wheat to Sell for
 $500 in 1920.
How to Get From 5 to IS More Bushels Per Acre and Prevent Winter
 Kill and Soil-Blow.

Any farmer can easily make lot of money from wheat in 1920 if he will watch the signs of the times. South American crops can't be shipped on ac- count of lack of boats. Russian fields are implanted, while Australian crops are killed by drouth. Less than one half the usual acreage is planted in the U. S. Spring wheat recently sold for $3 in Minneapolis. These facts insure wheat being higher than ever before in 192O-$3 to s. 50 is certain.
 Next spring thousands of farmers will find their wheat so damaged by winter kill that they will blow it up-but not the farmer who guarantees his crop by spreading strawzzhe will get from 5 to Is more bushels per acre and make more wheat money than ever before. Straw spreading not only prevents winter-kill and soil-blow, it also has more fertilizing value than manure, according to experts, and adds greatly to land values.
 A wonderful invention makes it easy for any farmer to straw-spread his en- tire field in to 10 days-a a simple, scien- tihc machine that will spread either light, wet, rotten or chunky straw or manure 20 to 9 feet wide-1O to 20 acres day. Readers will be glad to know that they can get just such machine in the Sim plex Straw Spreader on 30-day guar

XMAS THRIFT
 PLEA ASKED
 OF GOVERNOR
U. s. Wants Everyone to Give Savings Stamps For Christi
 mas Presents.

The Federal Government has asked the Governor of the State to appeal to the people of the State to give War Savings Stamps and Treas ury Savings Certificates as Christmas presents this year A similar request has been made to all the mayors of the larger cities in the Twelfth Fede- ral Reserve District.
 General giving of War Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certifi- cates as Christmas presents the Gov ernment feels would do much toward bringing prices of necessities back to a normal level by cutting the demand for luxuries, and would help to sta bilize the financial situation, besides starting many of the recipients of such presents along the road of sav- ing and thrift. In it's Christmas cam paign the Government has enlisted banks, clergymen, schools, and fra ternal organizations, and has seen to it that the banks and postoffices have sUfficent supply of securities on hand to meet the Christmas demand.
 Governor John U. Calkins of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank, which has charge of the work of the War Loan Organization in the Twelfth Federal Reserve District, points out the benefits to be derived through the generRa giving of securities of the Gov ernmeAg as Christmas presents in the following excerpt from a letter to the Governors:
 Economists are agreed that the present exorbitant level of prices that constitute not only an economic but a social menace is caused to a great extent by a spending spree being in dulged 11 by the people. Indulgence in luxIries, which, of course, causes increases in the necessities of life, has raised prices generally to such unheard of heights that Christmas buying this year promises a danger ous climax. We, therefore, appeal to you to call upon the people of your
