A custom may not mean much, but
then again it may. As for instance in
some places where we have happened
to wander we have been met with a
cordial welcome, and we have also
noticed that other strangers were
treated the same way. it being Gus
tom to do so. Then in other places
again the custom of leaving the
stranger strictly alone seemingly was in
vogue. To our way Of thinking the
custom Of visiting the sick neighbor,
calling on the newly arrived family in
the community. and doing your best to
get everybody acquainted is an admir-
able one, and could be adopted to adj
vantage in many, as matter Of fact
in most Of our local communities.-'The

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.

A better market tone. more opti-
mistic feeling among the trade was
quite evident during the week.
Legislative action of definite, we'll

ganization of a Federal Corporation to
finance our export business to foreign
countries unable to pay for needed sup

producers enabling them to recoup
present losses on the possibility Of
stronger markets later, has finally de-
| yeloped and has very noticeably affect
ed the public mind. AS usual, the mar
kets quickly responded to such reports.
Higher prices cannot practically he
brought about by legislation. but it is
generally realized that the present seri-
GUS loss to the agricultural industry,
and it's resultant loss to every other
industry, cannot be permitted when at
least partial remedy is available thru
the restoration of more buying conf
dence and the extension of reasonable
credits to foreigners without cash.
The sentiment has become pro-
nounced and wide spread that the
longer purchasing is deferred, the
heavier and the more certain it's fu-
ture development becomes, and conf
dence naturally is returning
Continued wheat exports again re-
surrects the possibility Of a depletion
of our surplus before the expiration of
the present crop year, but evidently
the consensus of opinion at present
holds to belief in moderately higher
wheat prices based on our domestic sit
uati0n where the normal demand has
been SO long dormant and which will
of necessity soon assert ITSELF There
is an unprecedented disparity in the
values of wheat and coarse grains but
because Of the strong export demand
for wheat and the comparatively short
wheat yields and heavy productions Of
corn and oats. it should be acknOWl-
edged that wheat is entitled to a good
premium. g;
The movement Of new corn thus far
has been rather light. Failure to grade
of much of the first arrivals is causing
some anxiety among the cash trade in
the filling of December sales. Pro-
ducers have plenty of corn, but natur-
ally are not frantic to sell at 40c with !

The value of farm crops this year
to the farmers-has declined to the
extent Of several millions, involving
the farmers in difficulties upon the
right solution Of which, according tc
the secretary Of agriculture himself
the ultimate prosperity Of the nation
depends. In such circumstances, the
farmers ask for further credits from
the federal reserve board. These are
denied. Yet at the same time, the
treasury agrees to provide 100000, 600
for the aid of the Cuban sugar planters,
100000, 900 for the railroads and other
odd millions for other needy applicants.
Perhaps it is right; but it will be diff
cult to convince farmers of the fact. 1t
would be very different if the great
decline in the prices received by farm
ers were accompanied, as Of course it
should be. by corresponding decline
IN the cost of farm products to the con-
sumers. But such is not the case. The
farmers are getting much less than
they did. but the consumers are paying
about as much as ever. That apparent
ly means that the middlemen and
spectators are making re;li per cent
profits Or more And the Hon. Alex
ander NJ. Palmer has talked so much
about putting stop to protiteering -

$500 Mile Auto Trip
49,. TO Of Los Angeles, Calf.
Il. +. D., No. 8, Box BOB.

:.
80. 5 a-~.. Los Angeles, Ca&f.
Y Through the. columns of the Sheaf,
to sour friends and its readers, we wish
to give a brief account Of our trip to
Los Angeles, Calf. ~.
On October Sth, with my father, two
brothers and their wives, we-left our
home at Alvarado, MIMI, in two autos,
taking with us a complete camping out
fit.
From Grand Forks, N. D., we follow
ed the Meridian road south, making. a
few brief stops at various towns; we
reached Barker at p. M, where we
stayed with some friends for the night.
On the third day we reached Dell
Rapids, S. D., where we visited the
mammoth stone quarries, and on the
fourth day we arrived ut Yankton,
situated on the banks of the Missouri
river Here we crossed over into
Nebraska, going as far south as Nc
PhersOn, Kas, where we hit the ''Old
Trail" from coast to coast. Parts of
South Dakota and Nebraska were more
or less hilly and not very much farm
ing country to be seen. All thru Kansas
we passed by acres and acres of sugar
cane and beets and also several large
sugar factories.
On the tenth day we reached Animas,
Colorado. where in the far distance we
could see the snow covered tops Of the
Rockies, and which became clearer to
our vision as we approached closer to
them. Here we also encountered bad
roads, a terrible snow storm having
passed thru that vicinity but a few
days previous. We reached Trinidad at
eight-thirty p: m.; being cold and tired
we took lodging ut a hotel. The next
morning after having supplied our
autos with the necessary needs. we
again started out on our journey. As
the road led us up and down thru the
dangerous curves Of the mountains, we
here crossed over the pass into New
Mexico. Being on the summit and
looking into the valley below, the
towns seemed to us like herds of cattle.
All thru New Mixico we passed thru
uninhabitated country and mostly thru
small Indian villages which held our
interest as we passed along.
At Flagstaff, Arizona. we were met
by a snowstorm, this being the coolest
point and about nine thousand feet
about the sea level. After leaving
Flagstaff it commenced to get warmer
and we came to believe we had at last
reached Il warmer climate. Going thru
the desert we were at times compelled
to pitch our tent by the roadside in the
lonely wilderness.
All. or mostly thru California we had
excellent roads and Il part of the way
was paved. which makes touring
pleasure. We were. however, happy as
we peared our destination and on the
t;'c::t::c*h day. ~ 3 I. H.. VIZ arrived 1T
Los Angeles. Il distance of $500 miles.
Since our arrival here we have had
some rain. but at the present writing.
Nov. Goth, we are enjoying just warm
and lovely weather.
Enclosed find money order for sub
scription to the Warren Sheaf.
Thanking you in advance.

Oats are regarded in much the same

declines would be reflection of dis
astrous business conditions which do
not prevail.
Admitting the unlikely development
or Il swift return to materially higher
levels we cannot now view the grain
situation as unstable or subject to new
low levels, but. III the face Of the shift
of public sentiment which now realizes
the seriousness of further depression,
we would rather regard the purchase
