Money to Be Made This Year-Winte,
Wheat OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ity for a Big Yield Of Spring
Wheat

While there is no government guar
anty for the 1920 crop. yet the world
shortage will insure a good price. One
of the best authorities sfys that the
worlds import requirement is 100000,
600 bushels and that the world is con-
fronted with a shortage more acute
than of any recent year.
In the reconstruction period follow
ing the Civil war, the highest price Of
wheat was In 1887. two years after the
close of the war. so IL Is reasonable to
suppose that wheat will continue to
sell at high prices.
The winter wheat crop now In the
ground is disappointing. Last year
the acreage was about 5O.OOO,O 900. this
year IL is only about 39.OOO,OOO and the
condition was much higher all through
the winter season than ii Is this year,
probably from 10 to Is per cent.
The normal crop for spring wheat Is
S5OWW.ooo bushels on an acreage Of

- 100000. Every acre should count
because il will he up to the Northwest
to furnish the discrepancy of wheat.
There is good money in wheat prop-
erly raised. Of course the weather has
much to do with it. but wheat is the
standard of value In all the Northwest,
Without wheat We should 90 bankrupt.
Many farmers think that they will
not SOW wheat. but what can they sow
which will do any better? liz some
places they can put In corn and there
Is much talk of live stock, but owing
to the scarcity of labor and the com.
parative ease with which wheat il
handled and harvested, there is MOTH
ing more profitable as a usual thing
than to grow wheat but grow IT prom
erly and profitably.
II is folly to argue that BY reducing
the wheat crop we can make more
money. What would 1t profit any man

farmers who perhaps would make a

There are three serious diseases
