LOWER VALUE OF
WHEAT IS OFFSET
BY OTHER GRAINS
Government Figures Show
farmers Position as
Greatly Improved,

United States Department Of Agricul-
ture has released its report of grain
stocks on farms March 1, 1924.
The total value Of wheat, corn,
oats and barley on farms on that date
was $1,236,1S6.427. This is $78,753,111
more than last year. Stocks Of these
four grains on farms March l, 1923,
were valued at $1.157 ,S83,316.
Wheat stocks have a lower value
but the stocks Of corn, oats and bar
ley are worth more than year ago
Corn Supplies Lower
Supplies Of corn are nearly 6O.OOO,-
600 bushels less than March /, 1923;
oats $4,000 900 bushels less and barley
20, 600 goo bushels less. The wheat
stock on farms was reported as being
close to $4,000, 900 bushels greater
than a year ago.
Stocks of grain on farms are poten-
tial income, as this grain eventually
will be sold, or fed to livestock which
in turn will be sent to market. The
figures contained in this Government
release. therefore, mean that farmers,
so far as these grains are concerned,
are $4,000. 900 better off than they
were a year ago.
The farm buying power is by no
means completely indicated by the
Government report on corn, wheat,
oats and barley The cotton crop was
one Of the most valuable in history
and tobacco IS also bringing good
prices. The livestock situation is log
ically working out to a condition ad-
vantageous to the farmer and viewed
from every angle. the farm buying
power is becoming daily strength
ened.

for other merchandising issues such

Ray Issues Reply

Mayor Shank made a statement to
the effect that he would demand an
investigation of me based upon a
plumbing bill which he paid me for
plumbing work done by me on some
houses owned by Mr. Shank. He at
the same time claims that neither he
nor anybody connected with his ad-
ministrauon is guilty OF any official
legal wrong. Does he mean that the
difference between what he thinks L
should have charged him for the work
and what he paid represents bride
given me by the mayor to influence
Atne in my official capacity?
"If this be so. how does it it square
with his declaration of innocence of
official wrong? II this is not what he
means, why did he not refuse to pay
the bill and then we could have settled
the matter in court?
I do not desire. to try these charges
through the press. but insist upon
them being considered by a legal
tribunal. but certainly the mayor
should make his charges concerning
me through the press. where he evi-
IDENTIFY desires to try his case more
tspecific. Certainly the. payment Of the

Livestock Increase

The department estimates the value
of crops and livestock at $l6,064 ,O0O,-
600 This IS based on a preliminary
estimate of production and average
prices az the farms. II includes the
value of crops fed to livestock during
1928. computed at S8.s61 900 600, but
oven after deducting this amount the
estimated value of crops and live
stock reaches the large amount Of
more than $12, 900, 900.
This is approximately a billion and
a quarter dollars greater than in 1922
and is a definite indication Of the
farmers present condition.

fingers removed On this finger
Captain Logan wore two rings, one
mounted with various Masonic en-
blems, the other, seal ring which
had been in the family for genera
tions. The seal was the family crest
of the House of Bruce of Scotland,
engraven and enameled on a violet
colored stone. 1t was the gift from
his father at the time the Captain
started on his journey to America.
The seal ring was recovered three
years later. In 1905 after nearly a
quarter of century had elapsed the
Masonic ring came to light. The
family now have these rings in their
possession.
The annals of frontier history dis
close much of interest concerning the
career of Captain William Logan. His
remains now repose in the National
Cemetery ON the Custer battle field,
having been removed to that sepul-
chre in 1882. Incidentally, 1t may
be mentioned that Captain Logan,
then an officer with the command of
General Gibbon, was on the ground
where General Custer was killed the
day following that disaster.
1t is believed that the first white
man to set foot ON the present site
of Fort Logan was Captain John
Mullan, then lieutenant in charge
of an engineering party under Gov
ernor Stevens, surveying a route for
a railroad from the Mississippi river
to the Pacific ocean. This survey
was made during the adTninistra-
ton Of Franklin Pierce, fourteenth
president of the United States, and
under the direct orders of Jefferson
Davis, then Secretary of War, later
president of the Confederacy. Null
Ian and his party camped at or near
the present site OF the fort on Sep
TENDER 20, 1853.

active in the district in and about

was established and during its ex-

was the headquarters of two COM
panies of United States Infantry
The War Department records show
that the camp was established on
recommendation of Major General
Winfield Scott Hancock, who was in
command of the department of Da-
kota at the time. General Hancock,
who was one of the heroes OF the
Union forces at the Battle of Gettys-
burg, later became the democratic
nominee for President of the United
States, against the martyred Gar
field, who defeated him in 1880.
At the time of its abandonment,

on which the fort was located, was
