NO SUCH ANIMAL

A queer kind of bunc is being put
out by board of trade interests in
Chicago. The board reports itself
greatly cheered by items of this kind
appearing in the rural press:
''Many well-posted farmers sold
futures last year above 81 and
bought them in at so to 20 cents.
They knew the crop was larger than
the market could take care Of, as
the government told them. They
bought in their contracts, collected
their profits on their hedging sales
at the decline and have their. cash
corn left to feed on the farm"
The average farmer knows as
much about buying and selling
futures as the average board of trade
man knows about inducing COW to
give down milk. About as many
board of trade men are milking cows
as there are farmers gambling in
grain.

sue; and yet today we see her hunt
for something else to do. She loves
her high uplifting trade, and quits
it with sigh, but she can't live on
what she's paid, and can't afford to
die. For years she studies night
and day, to qualify to teach; and we
behold her on her way and say she
is peach. We hand her nosegays
when they're cheap, and call her
Buttercup, and say the blessed
6schoolmarms keep our bulwarks
right side up. Without her this en-
llightened age would sadly be bereft;
she guards the priceless heritage
our well-known fathers left. We
hand her taffy with a spade, but
when she makes complaint about the
measley wages she is paid, we sweat
some blood and faint. We may con,
fess to spendthrift ways. hold miser

Some Gems From
Capper's Weekly

all the United States -four has de-
cline least but bread has declined
most
Boston. the city farthest removed
from the wheat belt and paying high
transportation charges on wheat or
flour for nearly 1900 miles of rail-
way, is the second city showing the
largest decline in the price of bread.
Bread in Boston is So per cent
cheaper than it was year ago. altho
the retail price of -four at the Hub
shows a decline of 22.7 per cent.
Washington. famous for rampant
profiteering, and some other things,
reports decline of 10 per cent in
the retail price of -four, but no de-
cline in the price of bread. The
was isn't over so ia ras the Washing
ton bake shops are concerned, they
are still bayoneting the enemy and
charging the public for all it will
stand.
In the wheat belt, wheat has de-
clined 37.7 per cent within the year
flour 17.5 per cent, but bread only
81 per cent.
Measured by the decline in price
the present price of bread ranges
proportionately higher than the price
OF wheat by from 80 to 80 per cent.
The science of economics is an in
teresting study. To reasoning mind
some of its theories are beautiful.
But what has it to do with toll-tak-
ers. open price associations and
other groups and organizations
which tell the producer at what price
he may sell the products OF his labor
and inform the consumer at what
price he may bargain for and buy
the necessities of life-the we'll
known customary limit being about
all that either can stand.

PRICE RIDDLES

This is what the conservative Fed
eral Reserve Board declares to be
the present price situations:
Raw cotton lower than the 1918
level. but cotton goods 20 per cent
higher; wool 1-3 higher than before
the war. but wooden goods twice as
high; hides 1-S under pre-war levels,
but price of shoes twice as high as
in 1918.
The Reserve Boards speciality is
supposed to be defation of inflated
values. Why not debate a little here,
that is, unless the board must do il
the way it Debated crop values. No
body wants any more Of that.

BREAD PRICES ACT STRANGELY

Man does not live by bread alone.
and maybe it is a good thing that he
doesn't, for if he relied, on decline
in the price of bread for relief from
the high cost of living, it would be
necessary at this time for somebody
to throw out the lifeline to the ITO
million bread consumers in the Unit
ed States.
The foregoing table gives the Gov
ernment's price figures for flour and
bread at retail in the 10 principal
cities, in two contrasting columns.
The table gives the percentage of de-
cline in the price Of these two prod
ucts. for the year beginning March
Is, 1920 and ending March 5,1921.
The figures in the first column, show
ing the decline in the price of wheat,
are our own and were cleaned from
the record of the cash market in Chi
cago and Kansas City, the two larg
est wheat markets of the country.
This price table, seemingly. def1es
all the laws of economics and also
some of the laws of mathematics and
possibly of the United States. There
is no rhyme or reason to it, no more
sense or conference than exists in the
Authorizations of crazy man.
With a maximum cash decline in
the price Of wheat of nearly 3s per
cent for the year, and maximum
decline in the price OF -four of 81
per cent, the size Of the crust the

the state food commissioners has de-
cided to revive Rooster Day this
year. Saturday, June IL, has been
chosen as the date for disposing of
all male birds in the barnyard flocks,
and on that day farmers are urged

enjoy fresh eggs should help the
cause along by ordering in advance
roosters for Sunday dinner, June IL.

spoil is so we'll known that all care
full egg producers now keep their
flocks of laying hens free from male
birds during the entire year. Fer
tilted eggs become stale within two
days in warm summer weather,
while fertile eggs Withstand the heat
much longer, says Commissioners
Frary, and the removal of roosters
is therefore simply means of in
surfing fresh eggs in the farmers

gather them every day, keep them
