| John Dechow of Woonsocket. S. D.,
says the farmers out there have an
abundance of grain as crops this year
were unusually good. Unfortunately
the market is poor and the farmers
are lightly stocked and cannot feed
their grain. 1t seems that when grain
prices rose a few years ago the
! farmers sold off their stock and went
into grain exclusively. Now they

time to restock and probably when
| that time comes the grain prices will
be up again. So it goes, John says.
He returned home this week.
