In all the Displays throughout the

the show window OF the Butler Store,
at All Market street. While not
elaborate, 1t in of unusual interest for

there which were made In 1905, 1e
years ago, by Robert w. Tadman, Sir,
who, was then connected with the
Wilmington q Brandywine Leather
Co. located at that time Mt 20s West
Fourth street. The feathers have
never been retouched, oiled or glazed
and they are as good today and as
clean and fresh looking as the day
they were turned out at the factory.
Mr.. Tadman is exceedingly proud OF
the product and claims 1t demon

qualities OF the far famed Whining

BILL W0ULD
HELP FARMERS
Carl w. Riddick, Congressman
From Montana Introduces a
Measure to Solve Mar
keting Problem.
WOULD HELP IN HOLDING
Issuance of Negotiable Paper Through
Elevators Would Allow Farmers
to Hold their Grain for Higher
Prices. Bill Endorsed by
Best Authorities.

Grain farmers will be enabled to
hold their crops for higher prices by
receiving for them upon delivery to
the local elevator a negotiable paper
which may Immediately be turned into
cash, if a bill introduced today by Rep
resentative Carl w. Riddick, of Mon
tana, the only member of congress
whose sole avocation is farming, is en-
acted into law.
"Under my BILL" said Mr.. Riddick,
"if the price level of grain is too low,
because of a glut on the market, far
mers may organize and Withhold their
products so as to permit the natural
law of supply and demand to bring
prices to a more equitable level, based
upon world offerings and consumptive
demands. My bill provides
"First, for a clear definition of the
warehouse receipt as a negotiable in
strument subject to the same restric-
tons as other negotiable instruments
and protecting the rights Of purchers
as such,
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1921-03-18

"Second, that grain deposited in To-
cal warehouses may be deliverable at
the local warehouse or any warehouse
at any terminal point.
"Third, that the warehouseman may
move grain deposited in his country
warehouse to a warehouse in any ter
minal market for the purpose of de-
livery upon the payment of accrued
charges.
Fourth, for the protection of the
holder of the certificate and of the de-
positor of the grain in all cases.
"Under my bill individual farmers
at country stations are given the same
marketing advantages as are 10Y en-
joyed by the grain trade in which the
use of terminal warehouse receipts is
ii common and approved custom. The
Importance of this may be seen when
it is remembered that the licensed ell
evator capacity of the country eleva-
tors is 521 900, 900 bushels, of the mill
elevators $50 1000, 900.
"The provision in my bill that grain
in storage may be deliverable on track
houses will enable country elevators tC
do a w~arehousing business far beyond
the actual capacity of their own eleva'
tors"
Herbert Hoover, former food admin.
istrator, and Julius Barnes, forme,
chairman of the United States Grair
Corporation and all the leading farm
organizations have endorsed the prin
ciples of Mr.. Riddick's bill.

TWIN CITY

During the week sentiment in both
the financial and grain markets has
apparently abandoned faith in any i'm
mediate or permanently higher levels.
Rather depressing economic conditions
adversely affecting industrial stocks
have in no small degree affected in like
manner the value of all grains.
Threatened labor troubles growing
ut of the reduction of wartime wages,
sluggish business generally, the Eu-
opean unsettlement and controversies
tending further toward depreciation Of
foreign credits, the prospective suf-
flciency of wheat and over-production
OF coarse grains, and, barring minor
insect damage, favorable reports of the
condition of the southwestern winter
wheat crop have all in a measure con-
tributed to the lowering of values.
The government figures on grain
on farms and in all other po-
sitions were surprisingly larger than
the trade anticipated. Wheat on farms
to March 1st, is shown as 2O7, 591 900,
comparing with 165. 539, 900 last year
at the same time. The smaller stocks
at country mills and elevators, how
ever, greatly offset the large farm
stocks so that the average wheat sup
plies of 317,696 900 are under the
March /, 1920, total of 1886, O4O, 900.
The latest government figures on
wheat supplies have not, to say the
least, cleared up the actual situation.
The difference between the published
reserves for January list and March
LIST is too much under the actual re-
ceipts of wheat at primary markets
for the same period allowing for du-
plication at the primary markets. The
farm stocks shown however, have had
the effect of modifying, if not entirely
changing, the belief that hits years
wheat statistics are extremely bullish,
for if these reserves be nearly accurate
it means that present wheat supplies
are only about II million less than the
corresponding time a year ago. The
wheat is simply in a different position
on farms instead of in the visible
stocks.
In conjunction with only moderate
export sales, cheapness of Argentine
wheat, favorable growing conditions of
the winter wheat crop in the south
west, the effect of these farm reserves
is being felt and while this sentiment
prevails it is difficult to conceive ar
upward trend.
Corn export sales continue in good
volume. Clearances exceed those of
previous years. Corn is the cheapest
foodstuff on the market and American
corn continues to undersell that of oul
principal competitor, Argentine. There
is little independence to this market
however, and while the weight of large
stocks is undoubtedly discounted by
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1921-03-18

Herbert Hoover has asked for L.
600, 900 bushels of white corn to be
used in the manufacture of grits, hon.
my and corn flour for the use of the
under nourished children of central
Europe. Only corn of the finest quality
will be accepted for this purpose.
Corn of Highest Grade.
Such orr as is not up to standard
will be sold on the open market, and
with the sale price corn of the right
quality will be substituted for milling.
It is of the highest Importance that
the starving children have only the
best, as their weakened constitutions
can not cope with improper or low
grade food says Mr.. Hoover.
Not only have the great trunk line
railroads offered to haul the corr free
of charge, but the train crews have
also volunteered their services free.
The mills will grind the corn without
cost. Carl S. Vrooman, of Blooming
ton, Ill.,, and former Assistant Secre-
tary of Agriculture, is director of the
Farmers Gift Corn movement.
Communities shipping corn for Eu-
ropean relief are labelling freight cars
with distinctive banners showing the
origin of the gift corn.
