ONLY MILLIONAIRE
BEGAN ON $50 ''GRUBSTAKE"
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RENO, New, June 14.-Successively
cowboy, miner, boom town" banker
and hotel owner, George Wingheld,
whose fortune grew from a $50 grub
stake" is now credited with being the
only millionaire In the only State which
has only one.
Nevada's lone seven-figured capt
talist is president of 20 banks, operates
chain of hotels, owns a number of
mineral properties and possesses agri-
cultural interests.
Wingfield represents his State as
Republican national committeeman, is
a regent of the State university and
maintains the only racing stables in
the State.
Twenty-Five years ago he was a cow
boy in Southeastern Oregon.
The late Senator George P. Nixon,
Winnemucca banker put up the $50
which became the foundation of Wing
fields wealth.
1t was a profitable investment for
the Senator, for young Wingfield, with
a fair for business, eventually acquired
control of the fiourishing Goldfeld Con-
Solidated mine He declared Nixon in
on the deal and they were reputed to
have divided 10000, 900 in profits.
Preferring to remain in the back
ground, Wingfeld has declined United
States Senatorship.
When defalcations of $4,000 were
discovered in the State treasury in 1927,
Winhgeld deposited a personal check
for that amount in his Carson Valley
Bank, State fund depository. as loan
to avert financial embarrassment to
Nevada and possible unfavorable reac-
ton on business and industry.

AUBURNDALE, Mass, June Il R).-
The price trend of all commodities last
week showed the greatest drop in one
week that has been noted for long
time. This decline was due to lower
prices for industrial and agricultural
products live stock, building materials,
fuels, non ferrous metals, ferrous metals,
textiles, both fine and coarse, and vege-
table oils. For the first time IN many
months out Of Is individual indices, not
one single group increased. Eleven de-
clined, and four remain unchanged.
For the first time since last Fail

schedules have at last reached a level
which is comparable with demand.

rejecting widespread unemployment
and low purchasing power.
Agricultural Products.
The downward trend was continued
by agricultural products. This was due
to decline in most of the grains, but
most important of all to the drop in
cotton, which totaled 100 points during
the past week. The June / Govern
ment crop report shows that condf-
tons have improved and a cotton crop
is indicated which will be large enough
to bring the available world supply TO
a high level in terms of consumption.
The condition of the crops also shows
improvement; Oats, 1872, compared with
81 last year barley, 86.4, against 1877;
all wheat, 85.7, against 84.8, and oats,

Leaf rust of wheat is widely spread
but, DR.. Mains says usually does not
attract as much attention as many
other diseases which may be less de-
structive. In the average year, his esti-
mates show, 10 per cent of the crop,
and not infrequently 80 per cent, will
be destroyed by leaf rust.
DR.. Mains and his assistants turned
to the quest of resistant wheat when
they found that busting with sulphur,
while effective, was too expensive. In
the last IL years nearly 1000 varieties
of wheat, together with 700 varieties
Of barley and several hundred varieties
Of rye and corn, have been tested.
In the tests the plants were subjected
