Legislation that will fix a maximum

Some farmers complain that their

will not make as much grain as was

PRODUCE REVIEW

The production of butter is heav-
Ter than a year ago; storage stocks
are heavy, considering the probable
outlet, and as dealers have about
discontinued storing domestic pro-
duction, more butter has been fore
ed on the market, causing a drop
during the week in the selling price
of butter and a corresponding de-
cline in the price of butterfat in the
producing sections.
Production of eggs is somewhat
lighter and some eggs are being
withdrawn from storage to make up
the deficiency. There has been very
little change in the price situation
during the week. Withdrawals of
storage stocks probably will check
any tendency to advance prices for
the present.
Receipts of live fowl have been
lighter and higher prices are prevail
ing in consuming centers, which is
reflected in producing territories.
The volume of live springs NOV
ing this week is much heavier and
this has caused a decline in prices
throughout the producing territor-
les.

It was an "unessential." We would
greatly appreciate it if the Federai
Reserve Board would specifically
name the things it classes as "unes-
sentials and Injuries" and those
commodities of which it has brought
about increaed production. Indeed,
edare the Board to try to name
them and then to make it definition
square with the facts in regard to
deflation of credit. Come On, gen.

and not glittering generalities as to
"unessentials and luxuries," which
you have lessened in output, and
your list of commodities you have
increased by your deflation work.
The public eagerly awaits enlighten-
ment.
The public would also like to
know why if there are such stores
of credit still available in the Fed
eral Reserve Board the business Of
the country is being throttled by the
policy of the Board in forcing all
member banks to curtail credit.
Possibly the Board is beginning to
comprehend the terrific significance
of its unwise policy of the last seven
or eight months, against which the
Manufacturers Record has unceas-
ingly protested, and is trying to find
way to reverse itself. That it will
reverse itself is, in our opinion, alb
