Mr.. Kuhrt, stated, that while
advances in grain prices cannot be
accurately predicted at this time,
nevertheless the fact that many
farmers, especially in the winter
wheat and soft wheat areas are
feeding their wheat to livestock, is
certain to reduce materially the
present surplus of wheat. He ex-
pressed the opinion that this should
have beneficial effect upon, wheat
prices and said that spring wheat
farmers should consider carefully
the advisabilty of storing their
wheat and obtaining advances,
rather than selling at present un-
satisfactory prices. Mr.. Kuhrt, al
so stated, that in his opinion,
farmers would have better oppor-
tunity to obtain satisfactory prices
for their Flax by placing it in a
seasonal pool than by selling at the
low prices now prevailing.

It happened yesterday while the
colonel, as the guest of j. Cheever

With the flying colonel on its back,
the pony banked sharply, Lindbergh
unceremoniously left the controls, went
into stall and Sideslipped.
Lindbergh didn't have his parachute
with him, but it wouldn't have done any
good anyway. He lost altitude rapidly.
In some manner his foot caught in

identity of its famous rider, the pony

foot came free. He scrambled to his

went home to his glider, the Anne

the safety of flying.
The famous flyers riding experience
heretofore has been limited to COM
paratively gentle saddle horses. His
two visits to the polo field yesterday
whetted his interest in the spirited
mounts, and it was said he might take
the field again some time when he
feels the need of doing something dan
