Uniting with other Pacific coast
grain growing sections in protest
against the passage of the Gronna
bill to abolish the United States grain
corporation at once the Pendleton
Commercial Club has wired to all
members of the Oregon delegation and
numerous private wires have also gone
forward from this county.
For several days past resentment
has been shown here over the possi-
bility the Gronna bill might be passed
and the arrival today of II W. Collins
brought the matter to a head
In the view of Mir. Collins the pas
sage OF the Gronua bill would be a
breach of faith by the government
with disastcrous results to milling men
all over the nation but it would also
be a powerful influence towards de-
pressing the price of new crop wheat
this summer.

side OF the grain corporation. We're
carrying 4S7.o0O,oOo bushels OF wheat
in the United States on January 10.
With this large amount of wheat on
hand the suspension of exporting
would leave an enormous carry over
at the outset Of tho new crop season.
The mere possibility of the Gronna
bills passage forced Il drop of n dollar
a buahel in the price of some grades
of wheat ian Minneapolis and it is Mr.
Collins belief that the passage of the
bll could easily result in depressing
the new crop price to one half the

TRAIN TICKETS
LEGAL TENDER
IN MEXICO
Dearth of Small Change in
Mexican Capital Forces Gen.
eral Use of Substitute
Nv Ralph H. Turner

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
City of Mexico, May l (By MaiD-
Having made ten-cent purchase,
the resident of Mexico City extends
the store keeper so centavo or one
peso bill. He waits for change. The
clerk, fumbling in his pocket or the
cash drawer, produces a stack of
street car tickets. The proper change
is counted out, in tickets, the GUS
toner pockets them and the trans
action is complete.
Such is the situation in Mexico
today as regards small change.
Time was, a few weeks ago, when
the customer would grumble at the
sight of tram tickets given in ex-
change for real money-and tickets
for which he had no earthly use. But
one must learn to expect anything In
Mexico and having learned to expect
| it, become reconciled to it.
The situation is improving how
ever. Not that there is any prospect
of an increase in the amount Of small
change. The outlook in that respect
is as gloomy as ever but the trades
men have agreed to accept the tick
cts as legal tender. When everyone
in town has acquired so much
"change" that there is no need of
walking, even for block, the rest of
ones natural life, the merchants de-
cided it was only fair that they take
some of it back.
So now the senor-about-tOwn pays
for his cocktails in tram ducats, and
the woman in the market place lays
down the same currency in payment
for her Vegetables.
Just why this change shortage
should exist nobody seems to know.
The people blame it on the govern
ment. just as everything is blamed on
governments the world over, but the
Ministry of Treasury declares it has
been issuing small bronze pieces in
increasing amounts The fact re-
mains, whatever the cause, that al
most every variety OF "change" in
Mexico is sold at premium ranging
from to Is per cent. Government
authorities blame spectators for
this condition. They have been hoard
ing the coins, it is declared, so as to
exact a premium on their sale after
they have cornered the market.
The shortage is greatest, and most
annoying, in the case Of S, 10 and 20
cent bronze pieces. Formerly there
were silver pieces, but these have dis
appeared altogether, just as the So
cent silver coins disappeared when
the government began to issue paper
bills. Never was there better illus
tration of the economic theory that
cheap money always crowds high
priced money" out of circulation.
| Just now the situation shows no
sign of relief.
| The bootblack, when you hand him
so cents, continues to give you a
slip which is good for another
shine" declaring he has no change.
While the baggar woman, when you
brush her aside on the plea that you
have no change, appeals to you IRE
sistibly:
| Then give me street car ticket. y

Next to radishes, the vegetable
crop that can be raised the quickest
is probably that of the small bunch
of onions or "scallions" grown from
onion sets. Planted in April these
will be ready in few weeks and will
later furnish an early crop Of large
onions for general use.
Buy a pound or more of one OF
these kinds of onion sets: Yellow
white, red, potato onions, top or but
ton onions. Oraer as early as pos
sible, before the sets have begun tc
sprout.
Prepare the soil thoroughly as
early as it can be worked. Rake
the surface smooth. Line the rows
inches or more apart. Make the
drills 2 inches deep. Place the sets
up in the drills to 2 inches apart
right side up with care. Cover ar
inch deep.
Give good surface tillage between
the rows from the time the sprouts
come up. Weed thoroughly. Pull
the onions as they get large enough
to eat. Leave any not gathered tt
grow larger for later use. Do moi
try to save these large onions until
winter.
Carrots.
Carrots are among the most health
full and delicious of all root crops
They are easy to grow. They may be
readily stored for winter use. There
are three main types of carrot roots:
The short or round, the nalf long
and the long. Earliest Short-horn OF
French Forcing is good variety OF
the first. Chantenay and Danvers

Statistician Cites Ten Reasons Why
Business Outlook In United States
Favorable 10 Continued Prosperity

wellesley, Mass. Nov. 2O.-Ten
epasons why the business outlook
~ the United States is favorable
md why business men should as
3ynn1e q more optimistic attitude
Rre given by Roger w. Rabson,
famous statisticsln. Here they
are:
First, the working people in
this country are In possession OF
HE great majority or the bonds
1ssued BY the United States gov
1safnment during the war. This is a
very favorable sign. for It shows
1hat the great mass Of people are
IN q sound financial condition.
Second, that as a result of the
sc0ming Of national prohibition two
and one half billion dollars previ-
ously wasted in this industry year
ly is now available for business
projects that are more useful anu
more likely to promote the well
fare Of all people.
Third. that in spite Of the wide
spread opinion to the contrary. the
federal reserve banking system
mas been an important factor in
sstabilizing financial conditions in
xhis country.
Fourth, that advertising is now

be sighted in any consideration
aof the future OF industries in gen.
eral.
Seventh, that all statistics gath
cred recently offer overwhelming
proof that seasonal fluctuations IN
production in this country are rap
idly decreasing. This will prove 20
be very beneficial, as it will tend
to make the demands for labor
more constant.
Eighth, that taxation will be
radically reduced in the near fu-
ture.
Ninth, that rapid progress is
being made in Industrial education
with the result that. the men em-
ployed in Industrial plants are
much better trained for their tasks
and are performing them with far
greater efficiency. The trade
schoosl that are now established
in all sections Of the country are
accomplishing wonders in this
way.
Tenth. that the United States
as a result of the war is now C
creditor nation instead Of a debt
or nation, and, therefore, is in a
very powerful position in the bus
mess world"
