WHEAT MAKES
EARLY SLUMP
Liverpool Unresponsive To
Yesterdays Rise

Chicago, Feb. 18.-Wheat made an
early downturn in price today, owing
more or less to the fact that Liver
pool quotations were irresponsible
to yesterdays late advance. on this
side Of the Atlantic. Assertions
that the 1925 Russian harvest threat
ened to be a failure were given con-
siderable attention but were offset
ny reports that some continental
European countries were selling back
cargoes which had been purchased.
Meanwhile, no important new export
demand for United States wheat was
in evidence.
The opening, which ranged from
one-half to n cents lower, May $l.83
Il to $1.S4 and July $1.54A, was fol-
lowed by moderate further setback
and then by rallies which, however,
proved transient.
Buying on the part Of strong COM
mission houses gave a lift to the
wheat market, during the late deal
ings, strength in corn was factor.
Wheat closed, unsettled at a range
varying to u cents decline to &c
advance. May $1.85 to $l.85A and
July $l.55A to $1.55%.

It was just following their wedding
that Mr.. and Mrs. Skauge entered

Mr.. Skauge said, although there are

there was only one that Mr.. and

"This work has been a great privi-

more than mere money"
The Hard Boiled Kid
Then MIR. Shaupe told the story OF
the "hard boiled kid" his attention
was called to in a Fargo Juvenile
court. That was 10 years ago and
the boy was Is years old. This boy
was supposed to be a bad actor and
Mr.. Skauge was asked by the judge
if he dared to take him. After COM
pleting the school at the institution
the boy was sent to the Agricultural
college Of Fargo. Even at the later
place he was found to be hard boy
to manage. But he made fine re-
cord in the war. The war is not

DON'T BOOST
WHEAT ACRES
SAYS EXPERT
Points to Possibilities in
Next Year in World
Wheat Supply
CONCLUSIONS
II IS'

Rugby, N. D., Feb. 18.-Wheat
growers of the United States should
not increase their acreages this yea,
'as the probabilities are that the
price of wheat year from now will
be lower than at the present time
is the advice given by DR.. w. j
Spillman, consulting specialist of the
bureau Of agricultural economics, U
S. department of agriculture, who
spoke at Rugby this afternoon.
"The present high price of wheat
is due to serious crop failure in
Canada, Europe and Argentina" Mr.
Spillman declared. 1.-THE shortage in
the Canadian crop amounts to about
100000. 900 bushels. In Europe, the
shortage is about 1s0,00O,0OO bushels.
These two shortages were known ear
ly last fall and it brought the price
Of wheat up in the neighborhood Of
$1.5O bushel. In midwinter the Ar
gentine harvest came on, and, the
100000 bushel shortage there rails
ed the price of wheat approximately
another SO cents.
"a serious shortage in three of
the five great wheat producing areas
of the world does not occur often;
but, it may occur again this year
The probabilities are against it. If
all five Of the areas have good crops
this year the world will be amply
supplied with wheat and the price
will undoubtedly be good deal low
et newt fall than it is now. 1t is not
given to US mortals to see into the
future, so we cannot tell what the
magnitude of the next wheat crop
will be. All we can say is that it is
probable, though by no means GER
tain, that the price year from this
time will be materially less than il
is now.
The Outlook
while we can't predict the situa-
ton for a single year, we do know
fairly we'll what the average for a
long series of years will bring. We
know that the worlds power of pro-
ducing wheat is much greater than
the worlds present need Of wheat
This is indicated by the following
figures:
Production-Million of bushels.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1925-02-18

Canada claims to have 225, O0O, OO(
acres of good wheat land yet to put
into cultivation. This is nearly
equal to the worlds present acreage
of wheat. DR.. Estabrook of the de-
partment of agriculture, who has
just returned from a stay of a year
and half in Argentina, states that
the available area of good wheat
land in that country is anywhere
from three to ten times the present
Aacreage of wheat there.
IF we were assured of good
price for wheat in this country, we
could readily increase our acreage
very materially, and would undoubt.
eddy do so.
~ His Conclusion
y"Taking all these facts into consi-
alteration, 1 am of opinion that for at
least another generation the aver
age price of wheat over a term of
years will be the lowest sum for
which men will continue to grow
wheat. This being the case, be-
lieve it would be very unwise for
American wheat growers to increase
their acreage materially.
"In the hard spring wheat dis
trict, the situation is somewhat diff
ferent from what it is in other wheat
growing districts. The demand for
hard spring wheat in this country is
about equal to the production. So
long as production does not exceed
demand, this kind Of wheat should
command a premium, but, if hard
spring wheat had to 60 onto an ex-
port basis, as it would if there was
large increase in production, the
premium for this class of wheat
would then depend upon the Europ-
can demand.
1.-THE northwestern states are
prominently adapted to the produc-
ton of hard spring wheat, and in my
judgment the crop should continue
to be the major line Of production in
these states; but, believe it will be
to the interest and profit of wheat
growers here to diversity their aeri-
culture to as great an extent as con-
ditions permit"
Mr.. Spillman will speak at Willis.
