Agriculture E. T. Meredith. He con-
Quoted a hearing at the Hotel La
Sale yesterday concerning proposed
changes in wheat standards.
In an interview Secretary Meredith
declared that the farmer already is
doing his part, and that il those in
other walks OF life cooperate the
high cost of living problem soon Will
be solved. He added:
Farmer DOING His Share.
AS there are more men farming
more acres, each acre and each man
producing more and giving every
body more OF the six leading cereals
than we ever had before, the farmer
seems to be doing his part pretty
well.
Farm production has kept up with
the INCREASE in population. Fifty
years ago the average leading cereals
was thirty-two bushels. From 1915
70 1919 it was fifty-two. Corn in
creased from % to % bushels per
capita: wheat from SO to 8; oats
from 81 to 1879; cotton from 36.S 10
52.T pounds, and milk from 81 gal
Ions IL 1899 10 So gallons In 1919.
Meats Show Slump.
Meats have shown a reduction in
production per capita, but we have
larger variety of foods today than we
ever had before-more fruits, vegeta-
bles. cereals-and our diet is more
varied. In 1900 the production was
PAS pounds of meat per capita in
1919. % pounds. Notwithstanding
this we are still exporting large
quantities.
Farm workers have increased In
numbers from 100000 in 1870. to
approximately 100000 in 1921.
From 1856 to 1874 each farm worker
produced an average Of 2SS bushels
annually; in the Ave years from 1915
to 1919. the average production was
4ls bushels"

seven Republican and Five Demo-
Gratis Appear in Primary.
BY Associated Press.
Detroit Mich, April S.-The pre-
ference OF Michigan republicans and
democrats for presidential nominees
will be registered next Monday In the
states second presidential preference
primary.
Republicans have a field Of seven to
choose from, while the democrats
have enterered five In the lists. Two
of the latter William J. Bryan and
William G. McAdoo. made unsuccess-
sul efforts to have their names re-
moved from the ballots. Withdrawal
after certification, however. Is not
pc rmitted under the state election
laws and the two names remained on
the ballots.
An unusual situation results from
the fact that the name of Herbert
Hoover appears en- both republican
and democratic tickets. The double
fling for the former food admins
traitor was made possible when the
states attorney general ruled in
operative, as applied to the presiden-
tial primary. the amendment passed
by the last legislature requiring from
candidates an affidavit OF party at
filiation.
The republican ticket comprises
Senators Poindexter, of Washing
ton. and johnson OF California; Gem
eral Pershins. Maj. Gen. Leonard
Wood, Governor Lowden. Of Illinois:
Mr.. Hoover and Mt. William q.
Simpson. OF Detroit.
On the democratic ticket besides
Mr.. Hoover. Mr.. McAdoo and Mr..
Bryan. are Governor Edward I. Ed
wards. Of New Jersey, and Attorney
General Palmer.
Eugene v. Debbs, OF Indiana, Is
TIE sole candidate on the socialist
ticket.
How far the preference Of the
voters expressed in the primary will
be regarded as binding upon the
thirty delegates Michigan will send
to each national convention. II a
matter of speculation. No provision
is made in the primary law binding
tie delegation to the primary ex-
o. essfon, and the states representa-
tives at the convention may, II they
so choose. swing their weight to
another candidate after the nrst bal
lot Is cast.
Vigorous campaigns conducted by
several Of the leading candidates and
the fact that in many cities and
townships important local issues are
tC come up at the same time is ex-
rected to bring out large vote this
year. Bonding issues are to &c bal
lcted upon in many communities.
That q heavy vote will be brought
out in Detroit Is regarded as q fore
gone conclusion. Here . street rail
way bonding proposition is expected
to overshadow interest in the presi-
Dental primary. The proposal Is to
bond tho city for 31s.0oo,oo0 with
which to establish a municipality
owned traction system to compete
with the present Detroit United Rail
way. A hot campaign has boon made
on this proposition. Mayor James
