The Price of Wheat

Number one dark northern wheat sold for $l.21
in Bismarck yesterday. This marks a drop Of ap-
proXimate.y "a cents bushel within two months
and L. a bushel during the past month. In
dications are cereal quotations will be hammered
to lower levels in the next few days.
Explanation for the steady decline in the last
two months appears to lie in the strengthening
belief at Chicago that European demand this year
will be sufficient to cover the Canadian export
crop before Argentine and Australian wheat comes
onto the market. Reports that Russia is buying
Dominion wheat heavily, which until recently
served bolster up wheat prices, in the light 0!

There is another and more obvious explanation
for the slump in cereal prices Heavy post harvest
grain shipments terminal markets have the e1
feet of cutting grain prices. This post harvest
slump in cereals is annual. With "a short crop i:
the United States this year, however, it will hardl!
account for the slow but gradual downturn whici
has marked wheat quotations during the last
month.
Meanwhile prospects for two dollar wheat in De

A Nice Row Stirred Up
(Wichita kas.] Beacnn)

When the first instament of the prohibition re
port of the Federal Council of Churches came out
predicted that the vets would get considerable
consolation out of it, and that seems to be the case
Reports from Washington indicate that it has
set the dry leaders to fighting among themselves.
This fact, it is indicated, may be rather damaging
to the prohibition cause.
On second thought. won't it eventually help the
prohibition cause?
The American people are great people when
they get mad, some wise said. There
hasn't been enough zip in the fight against booze
The good folks have been too complacently good
They have lifted their noses above the mess occa
stoned by law violation, particularly In New York
Chicago, and other metropolitan centers. They
have not taken enough interest in lit. There has
been too much Of spirit of letting George do it.
If George is going to do the prohibition job he IL
going to need a lot Of aggressive help, aside from
resolutions and manifestoes. The good folks viii
have to get down into the dirty and soggy trenches
and do some fighting themselves. The vets ART
always fighting.
1t is true that the vets have been shouting will
gee since the frankly pessmistic report of the fed
eral council came out. That report, in SO far a.
opinion is concerned, contained too much abou
prohibition being an experiment" whose success
is doubtful But possibly the rest Of the dry forces
need little disagreeable prod. Perhaps they ddn
know just how bad the situation was. There i
only one way open and that is strict enforcement
of the law. And the sooner the listless prohibition
element in the country awakens to this fact, get
uneasy, makes a loud and insstent demand upo
government officials and lawmakers, and gets dow
to actual hard work itself, the sooner the probler
will be solved.

ADVENTURE or
THE TWINS
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

1t was funny that Daddy Crack
nuts forgot to tell his wife about
somebody stealing the gasoline out
of his car.
But by the time he got to the
Post. office and looked over his
mail, and stopped at the Twins
garage to talk to his friends, it was
lunch time.
And at lunch he and Mrs. Crack
nuts were so busy talking about the
children's new school shoes. and
about the postal card from Mrs.
Gray Tail saying that she was COM
ing to visit them, that it never en-
tered his head. It's Just like man
to forget to tell his wife that he's
been robbed, and that all his friends
were coming that night to help him
watch for the burglar.
The Cracknuts family lived in
an apartment in the maple-tree,
some three flights up. But of
course their garage was on the
ground floor.
That afternoon Daddy said he
thought he'd go nut-huntine SO as
to find out exactly where the best
nuts were. He wanted to be ready
to set in q store the minute the first
frost came.
Mrs. Cracknuts said she was glad
to get the whole family out of the
way as she had so much cleaning
to do.
"The children spot up things
So" she complained, 81 never can
bear to have Mother Gray Tail come
! and see the mess things get into
She always says l don't raise them
! right"
So Daddy spent his afternoon
looking up chestnut and hickory.
nut trees, and hazel bushes. and
Mrs. Cracknuts spent it cleaning.
Mrs. Cracknuts was so tired that
night that she went to bed the very
minute she had the children settled
And Daddy said he'd just smoke
one pipe and then he would come
up, too. He was almost as tired as
she was.
BY, that time Daddy had forgotten
| all about the stolen gasoline him
self, md about his friends telling
him that they were coming to hunt
the burglar.
