JEFFERSON CITY, May 12.-That
Missourl's 1921 wheat crop to be har-
vested upon 2,764,000 acres, with con-
dition of 81, indicates a yield of 1929
bushels per acre, or a total of 42,262,-
900 bushels, is the joint announcement
of E. A. Logan, Agricultural Statisti-
clan, and Jewell Mayes, Secretary Of
the State Board of Agriculture.
The report shows Audrain county
has 26,960 acres in wheat. Its percent
is 81; estimated yield per acre II
bushei. Condition of rye in Audrain
10ORe, hay s8%s, blowing 300, sow
ing 1870, pastures 91%, oats 5000.
Missouri wheat was seeded last fall
on 1890, 900 acres, and the winter was
favorable, resulting in an abandon
ment of but 2% against $50 last year,
Farmers estimate that 2,764,0O0 acres
are going to harvest against slightly
less acreage in 1920; last May, condi-
ton was rs with final yield of 12.t
bushels per acre totaling 32,500,00(
bushels.
Wheat has not recovered fully from
the many spring freezes, the marks Q.
which are easily seen and will not b,
entirely overcome. In many place
the crop looks brown and dead blade
are much in evidence from the freeze
and not from insects or disease a
thought by some. The crop also look
thin in many sections. April-Ma,
weather has not been favorable, an
the condition is slightly lower than
month ago.

A. LOCAL CONTRACTOR
WHO Is ALWAYS BUSY.

Contractor S. Bruce Wright never
lacks for work, even in these dull
times and the fact that he has always
given satisfa ction probably accounts
for It, Mr.. Wright is general CON
tractor and has handled some of the
largest jobs handed out here. He does
general contracting business and
erects and repairs brick, cement or
frame structures and it may be said
that no building is too large and none
too small to receive his attention. He
has been in the general contracting
business right here in Brunswick for
many years and various structures are
standing monuments to his skill and
ability. He is always ready to give
estimates on any and all classes of
work and his promptness in finishing
jobs has been the cause of favorable
comment on many occasions Every
body who knows Mr.. Wright is aware
of the fact that he is a man of his
word and his past in this community
is proof Of this.

POWDER AND FREIGHT
MINES THROTTLED BY

Between railroad rates and pow
der cost the mining industry has been
throttled," declared Ravenal Macbeth.
secretary OF the Idaho State Mining
association, at the Davenport hotel
IN Spokane a few days ago. These
two factors are mainly responsible
for the present mining shutdown. 1t
is true we need tariff, but mines
could still struggle along if the cost
OF powder and freight rates were not
prohibitive.
Lead is now quoted &. a cents a
pound and of this cents is paid TO
the railroads for freight. Bullion
rates, which before the war were
Si0.5o to New York are now 500. &c.
IN addition to which cost of the crude
ore TO the smelter must be taken into
consideration. Powder before the war
was i0.5 pound and now is % cents.
In the advance of lead during the
war powder kept pace with great cell
el1ty, but once raised TO the high
price, il has stuck and refused to
come down.

tiOns of,teachers will come up for de-
cisi0n in which there Is manifest gen
eral interest throughout the commun-
ity, equalling in Importance the COM
ing municipal election.
There are seven. or eight applica-
tions already on file for the teaching

piled up to Tuesday last but there

ing earnest thought to the matter of
the selection OF teachers for ensuing
year with view of securing an effic-
lent staff. One member who has Civ
en- special attention to the necessi-
ties on this score said he thought the
Salmon schools ought to get along
without employing a so-called super
intendent at all with the hiring of IA
working staff of teachers of proven
ability, one of them to fill the place
of principal but to teach classes like
all the rest and all to be busy and to
keep the classes busy throughout the
