Joe Myers says we are wrong
when we say that 1t is safe to pre-
dict that we will not see much
more$2 wheat, and that he OK
poets to haul 1t to market for better
than that price before spring. He
may and we hope he does, but at

by the farmer for less than 81. than
over that figure In any event the
old COW is the safer proposition
Of the two. and that is what we
