NATIONAL WHEAT
BODY ADVOCATED
ILLINOIS FARM AUTHORITY SAYS
FEDERAL CORPORATION COULD
STABILIZE PRICE

Springfield, Ill.-(A. P.)-Creation
by the United States of national
wheat corporation which would estab-
llsh a basic minimum price for all
American wheat, and employ other
measures for stabilizing the wheat
market is advocated by /. A. Madden,
farm advisor for Sangamon county,
and well known in Illinois as farm
authority
Allowing the surplus of American
wheat to set the price of American
farm crops must stop if the farmer
is to be saved from ruin" said Mr..
Madden in outlining his plan
The United States should charter
national wheat corporation and ap-
propriate sufficient funds for work.
ing capital. This corporation should
then establish a basic minimum
wheat price for all American wheat
Offered at the basic minimum price,
then the national wheat corporation
should step in and buy wheat.
Until conditions are more stable
in foreign countries, the wheat ex-
ported would have to be sold at less
than the basic minimum price. To
make up the loss sustained on ex-
marketed should be assessed with a
dlfferential tax. This tax would vary
with the surplus produced. If the
baslc price was such that there was
an r-production, then the tax
would lower the farmers price to
where over-production would be dis
couraged, while if there was a short
age of wheat the tax would be
lessened and production stimulated.
This plan would not interfere
with the present grain trade, with the
development of cooperative market
ing, nor with the chance of a price
above the basic minimum to the far
mer who chooses to hold his wheat
until after the harvest rush. 1t
would, without subsidizing agricul-
ture, put the labor and capital of the
American farmer ON a plane with the
capital and labor of other industries.
1t would eliminate market gluts
due to production placing the
burden of reproduction entirely
lpon the farmer. The consumer of
wheat in the United States would be
asked to give the farmer an equal
chance. Only the extremely selfish
would deny this.
Approximately six hundred mil
ion bushels are consumed at home
md two hundred million bushels are
This surplus is a mill
tone around the neck of agricultural
rices."
The suggestion that American citi-
ems should be induced to buy wheat
vas denounced by Mr. Madden, who
aid this plan would only aggrevate
he situation because, it increases
he amount of the surplus held in
.merica, which sooner or later will
ause prices to fall to lower levels"

RAMS FROM j. FLOCkS TO
SALT LAKE CITY SALE

Thirty rams, the first consignment
ever made from the University of
Idaho flocks to the annual ram sale
at Salt Lake City, are now being
prepared for the sale, which is to be
held August 27, %, and 20.
The rams have been carefully
fitted, and it is expected that they
all will bring high prices, as they are
from unusually good blood lines, and
the university flocks have produced
many prize whining rams and ewes
in recent years.
In the total consignment of thirty
head there are 81 yearlings and three
two-year-olds from the Lincoln, RAM
bouillet, Hampshire, and Suffolk
breeds. Among the Rambouilletts
listed is a son of Monarch, conceded
to be one of the greatest rams of
that breed.
The Suffolks are a breed that was
into the western states by
the college of agriculture Of the Uni
versity of Idaho. The start of the
flock was a ram and three ewes,
presented to the college by the Eng
lish Suffolk society.

OVERSMITH PLEADS
FOR LATAH FARMERS
LOCAL ATTORNEY BEFORE BOARD
OF EQUALIZATION, AGAINST
ARBITRARY VALUATIONS

Boise-Six speakers, five of then
tax agents of utility corporations, ad-
dressed the state board of equaliza-
tion at it's session Tuesday.
One of the speakers was A. H
Oversmith, of Moscow. He did not
speak for any utility but as he said
for the agriculture interests of Latah
county. Mr. Oversmith urged the
board to allow the evidence of sales
and mortgages to have weight in
placing farm values, rather than to
accept arbitrary valuations.
G. A. Murray, tax commissioner of
the Northern Pacific Railway COM
pany, in an able address on condi-
tions affecting the ability of railroads
to pay taxes, asked that the main line
of the Northern Pacific in Idaho be
reduced in valuation Is per cent and
it's branches 20 per cent
Jess B. Hawley asked for reduc-
tion from $4,000 to 100000 for the
power transmission lines of the Bos-
ton & Idaho Gold Dredging company.
for the Pullman company
Mr. Hawley asked that the valuation
of its rolling stock in the state be
reduced to flat figure of $175,000.
A. D. Decker, tax agent of the
Idaho e. Montana rail
road, sought a reduction of the pro-
perty's assessment. F. NJ Saunders
requested that the lines of the Wilder
company be assessed at
$40 mile.
E. G. Kiersted, special agent Of the
Idaho Power company, made the re-
quest, based on the earning expert
ance of the company, that reduction
be made from the high valuation
placed upon it one year ago.

COOLIDGE TALKS TO
PRESS With FRANKNESS

Washington = President Coolidge
went through one of the critical ex-
periences that falls to the lot of pre-
| sldents-his conference with Wash
ington newspaper men.
The new president had let it be
known that he would follow the pol
icy of President Harding of holding
semi-annual press conference after
the cabinet meetings with the cor
respondents privileged to present
questions once a topic was opened
for discussion.
Consequently Mr.. Coolidge early
Tuesday afternoon looked up from
his desk to find newspaper men
ranged around it and many more
standing through the door. He
hastily arose, smiled and nodded his
head in way of greeting.
After announcing that he favored
continuance Of the policy of never
quoting the president in the press re-
ports, Mr.. Coolidge made brief
statement as to the cabinet meeting
which had just adjourned, and then,
taking up the sheaf of questions
which he had carefully sorted, began
to answer them
He spoke slowly and distinctly and
went from one subject to another
without hesitancy. His statements
were SO complete that none of the
$50 newspaper men present requested
amplification. When he had disposed
Of the last question he looked around
and said:
"Well, guess have given you a
stickfull"
The conference was over.
