MODIFY WHEAT GRAD
IS PROTEST. SUBMl iaI
Farmers In Spring Wheat Section H1s1so.
Been Penalized Millions, 1t
is, Claimed.

Farmers inathe spring wheat section
have been penalized millions of dollars.
on an average Of six cents bushel, BY
the operation of federal grain stand
ards, members of the; legislative COM
mittee of the MINNESOTA Farm Bureau
federation said, ina statement protest
Jug a continuation of hearings by the
Upited States department OF agricul
1ture on notifications of the federal
grades.
The protest, was forwarded to Henry
=. Wallace, secretary Of agriculture, In
reply to request by minneapolis mill
ers that further hearings be granted.
We sincerely hope'a the statement
says. that Secretary Wallace, without
further hearings, q will modify the
grades on wheat so that they will con-
form practically to Minnesota grades.
The opponents Of such mOdificatiO
had ample opportunity to be heard, ana
were fully represented in force during
the hearings recently conducted in
Washington. At a time when the
farmers financial resources are at their
lowest ebb, we respectfully protest
against a further continuation of these
hearings as imposing an unnecessary
burden 81.
The statement specifically denied that
lowering of the federal standards 10
conform to old Minnesota grades. would
work, injury to the producers. ~
Farmers Of the spring wheat sec
ton have been penalized on an average
six cents q bushel because OF the pre-
mitigation Of wheat grades by the fed
eral bureau Of markets, statements
said. 1.-THE facts are that certain tEi
quirements, now J, exacted from the
farmer and the country elevator man,
are not necessary for the production of
high quality Of -four, and may be used
as means to, penalize the producer
Of wheat and make profits for the ter
minal elevator man and miller larger
and more certain.
Some Of the finest wheat ever grown
in this section, weighing more than 60
pounds q bushel, bright, and of good
milling quality. has been graded down
to No. 3 lsecause it contained 10 per
cent Of moisture, when it has been
proved beyond doubt that wheat never
spofs in this northern country with Ii
per cent Of moisture.
1.-THE old Minnesota grades provided
that No. 1.s2,s3 and could contain 10
per cent of moisture. 7. 80
"This same kind of wheat has been
graded down to No. 3 and because of
the presence Of a few, more wild peas
than the federal bureau of markets
said. were permissible in the higher
grades. The Minnesota grades PRO
vided that No. 1 wheat could contain
three per cent of rye and barley, singly
or in combination, but the federal ybu
reau of markets has determined that
that quantity Of rye or barley makes
| the wheat No s. even though the wheat
has all other requirements necessary
for No. L. Chemists have proved that
the quality Of the -four is not depreciat-
ed by the prevalence of as high asathree
per cent of rye or barley"

DEATH-DEFYING STUNT DONE

What types Of men suffer most
from nervous fear?
Antonio Moreno, popular star of

sensational serial of adventure and
romance, believes that the inactive
man-the man who shields himself
from danger and hazards more apt
to suffer from nerves. than the
man who daily faces life and it's
dangers with a cool confidence.
Mr.. Moreno is a living example of
his own philosophy. While he never
actually feared the rigorous work
demanded of a modern serial thrill
err star, he freely admits that it
was with some trepidation that he
entered this field of fin, activity
He has proved to be one of the cool
est and most courageous of the film
stars, as he always refuses to allow
substitutions in the dangerous spots
and insisting upon realism and ma
terialism in cases where it was pos
sible to "fake."
In Episode 4 of "The Yelled Mys
terry" which is offered at the Prin-
cess theater ON Wednesday, Moreno
undertakes one of the most difficult
tasks of his serial career. He is
sent hurting through space from the
top of a large office building by the
villainous crew he is seeking to out.

BY the County Agent

The Minnesota Seed Law provides
that all agricultural seeds offered for
sale in this state in quantities of
one pound or more shall have the
comtainer labelled or tagged to show
the kind and variety of seed, the per-
centage of termination and purity
and date Of termination test, the
state or country where grown, and,
if Minnesota seed corn, the county
in which grown, and the name and
address of the scotsman. IF any
seeds of quack grass, Canada thistle,
perennial SOW thistle, or dodder are
present in the sample the percent
ages of such seeds must be shown on
the label The purpose Of the law
is to enable the buyer to know what
he is buying. It. should be noted
that the law applies to seeds offered
for sale in this state and does not
protect the buyer who buys seed Of
fered for sale in other states. It
follows, that farmers who send to
seedsmen, outside Minnesota should
insist ON knowing the quality Of the
seed offered them and should have
both. purity and termination tests
made before buying. Such tests
will be made free Of charge by the
county agricultural agent or the
State Seed Laboratory. As q gener-
al rule, seed grown locally, If Of
good variety and vitality, is likely to
prove more satisfactory than that
which has been grown under possibly
widely different conditions But
whether local Or other seed Is OBJ
tanned, only the best should Be used.

chances Vhicla can not be avoided

Idaho Millionaire.

Agreement Reached When They DIS.
covered That the Shortage Could
No Longer Be Concealed
Money Spent in Specializing.

Spokane, Wash.-John B. Milholland,
investment broker of the firm of MIL
holland G Hough of Spokane, accused
by Jay B. Hough, his partner, in an al
legged confession which the police said
was made to them, to have with him
embezzled $350,0O0 in bonds and
money from James r. Callahan, mil
lionaire Wallace, Idaho, mining man,
committed suicide by shooting himself
at his home here while the police were
searching for him.
Prosecuting Attorney Lindsey, i'm
mediately after receiving the confes-
sion Of Hough, issued warrant for the
arrest of Milholland.
Made Suicide Pact.
According to the alleged confession
Of Hough, he and Milholland had en-
tered into suicide pact and were to
have shot themselves in their offices
at II o'clock Saturday night. This
agreement was reached Friday noon,
according to Hough, when he and Mil
holland discovered that the shortage
OF the Callahan account could no
longer De concealed.
Hough, according to police authori-
ties, said the suicide agreement was
not carried out at that time because
after he had consulted an attorney re-
garding the matter he was convinced
the only thing for him to do was to
make clean breast"
Hough Is being held in jail in lieu
Of 100000 bonds, according to Prose-
cutting Attorney Lindsay.
Hough stated to police authorities
that the embezzlement~was accom-
plished through forged bonds worth
$315,000 and spending of large cash
fund of Mr.. Callahan's over which the
frm had direct supervision. The forged
bonds, Hough declared, were delivered
to Mr.. Callahan instead of genuine
bonds and the interest coupons on
them were paid by he and Milholland
at regular intervals. In this way he
declared, Mr.. Callahan did not dis
cover that the bonds he holds are
forged.
The money obtained through the
forgery Of the bonds, according to
Hough's statement to the police, had
been spent in specializing on the New
York stock exchange.
