FLOUR M|LLERS RESUME
FOREIGN TRADE WITH A
BRIGHT FUTURE IN VIEW

Kansas City, Mo.-Flour millers in
Kansas City arc resuming their for
cign trade connections. After more
than two years, during which the
export in both wheat and wheat
flour was handled exclusively by the
United states Grain Corporation, act
ual business has been resumed, n lib
crIl volume Of sales having been
made. It is estimated by Kansas City
mllers that so far this year, they
alone have completed the sale Of APP
proymatcly 5000 barrels Of export
grades. The bulk Of the flour, they
say, was sold to Egypt, but there
mas also been some trade with Asiatic
countries ana with Europe.
When julius II. Barnes, president
of tie United States Grain Corpora
ton formally removed all restrictions
ON the expectation Of flour from this
country, on December 10, 1919, an
active effort TO resume foreign trade
was made by Kansas city mills. The
results at the time, millers here say,
were not encouraging. Replies TO
clbegrams indicated that Argentine
ana Canada were offering flour At
lower prices thun those charged by
United States mills. Foreign eX-
change rates offered still another OBJ
sJacle
but miIlers here continued their
efforts, operating on the theory that
Europe required bread and would buy

This is the estimate Of f. l.. Car

The Near East Relief has made

Mr. Carpenter is confident that Ok.

not believe that it will be necessary
to extend the period beyond the time

are encouraging and the outlook ac-

Because Of the comparatively small

this business has not affected the

Auctioneer Harry G. Cranke,
Predicts Better Prices for
Beef Animals
SUPPLY IS LIMITED
Population of U. S. on Beef
Rations Consume Supply
in 65 Days

That the cattle market will have an
upward trend in the near future is the
of Col. Harry O. Cranke,
the well known auctioneer. Mr..
Cranke's work calls him west to
California and east as far as Wyom-
ing, and he has made a special study
OF the conditions surrounding the cat
tie industry In all sections visited. Mr..
Cranke's statement follows:
Il have been asked In my travels
every day what l think about the cat
tie market and have been requested to
write an article ON the situation In
general. l feel sure that you will
grant me n small corner, at least, In
your valued paper.
For the past two or three years
the prices we have received for both
beef and pork are very discouraging
to the growers, but / believe that the
tide IL turnlng and look for aN good,
steady demand from now on for both
cattle and hogs. There IL no reason
why good top steers here In the west
should not bring 13 cents and hogs 20
cents, as through correspondence with
eastern breeders | understand that
they expect 10 and 20 cents for their
steers on the Chicago market OF
course, owing to the fact that their
cattle are finished in the feed lots
they will naturally he a litter better
quality than ours, but l can see no
reason why our western cattle should
not bring IL TO IA cents.

COMPANY TO EXPLOIT
COAL DEPOSIT FORMED

which have turned out to be real pro-
ducers at Franklin and Piedmont, and
other places in the state of Colorado,
and made the statement while here
that the Grangeyille prospect had a
much better showing than any of the
mines at the places mentioned.
"The Neal property" Stated Mr.
Burtock, has the proper formation
indicative of coal slate on top Of the
deposit and sand beneath. Inyestiga-
tion shows that the deposit runs from
four to eight feet in thickness and at
the present time is known to extend
for more than $50 feet in width. The
oil seepages are also indicative of a
coal deposit"
The company is being Incorporated
for S500,000, and the shares will be
placed at $100 each. A sufficient
quantity will be sold to develop the
prospect, a tunnel being planned that
will tap the vein at a depth that will
clearly demonstrate the worth OF the
denosit as a merchantable product
So thoroughly convinced Of the indi-
cations was Mr. Burtock, that he OF.
fered to take a block of the stock
when issued.

ADVISES EARLY START
For Selection of Western Man for Sec
retary of the Interior

The one big project for the peo-
pie of the west to unite on and fight

is that the next secretary OF the III

Reed, executive secretary of the Idaho
Reclamation association. He states
further:
"The west is growing to such proper
tions, and is rapidly becoming a sec
ton of these great United States so
powerful in commerce, finance ana IN
dustry, that it is perfectly right ana
proper that the next secretary should
come from the west.
"The executive secretary is spread
liz this propaganda in 10 states, to sen
ators, congressman, governors, mayors,

religious. faternal, and civic organiZa-
tions of the Is states, and Is arou1lns
the mighty prestige and Influence OF
the press, so that all citizens may JOIN

mot that secretary from the west
would discriminate in favor OF the
west. Not at all. Only, we want a
man who understands the resources
possibilities, and opportunities OF the
great empire west of the missouri
river.
