FLORIAN. The Emperor's Stallion. BY

the Emperor Franz Joseph is the
center of a story which portrays the
life Of the court and the aristocracy in
Austria between 1901 and 1921. Floriar
was born on the imperial stud farm Of
Lipizza, where he led pleasant
pastoral life for the first four years OF
his existence. Then he was taken to
Vienna and trained in the famous
Spanish Riding School, to prepare him
for service with the Emperor's car
riage The murder at Sarajevo and
the World War interrupted Florian's
peaceful life. but in the end he found
a refuge with an old couple in the

years 1t was then merely a matter OF
diverting to domestic consumption
part of the supply that might have
been exported. But, with export out
lets much CONSTRUCTED, our carry
overs must include wider margin Of
safety.
Danger of Storage.
However, If we produce a larger
margin of safety, that margin must
be accompanied by some method of
preventing it from exerting a de-
pressing effect on the domestic mar
ketS. In short, holding program
must be accompanied by control of
production.
Corn and cotton are the commodi-
ties to which the storage program has
thus far been applied, but it may be
desirable to extend it to other COM
modities to which adjustment pro-
grams can be applied. The amounts
of these commodities to be stored
would depend upon the variation in
yields to be expected and the degree
of security desired. The amount Of
the loan a bushel should not be in
excess of rs per cent of parity.
Storing on the farms, with farmers
retaining title, assures that the indi-
vidual producer keeps constantly in
mind the relation of surplus stocks
to his own farming program. 1t also
gives the individual farmer the benefit
of price rises that might result from
storing surpluses into years of ad-
justed production.
Loan System Discussed.
The possibility that under the loan
ing system the Government may come
into possession of stored commodities
because prices fall below the loan
value or for other reasons makes it
desirable to enable the Government
to use such commodities in lieu of
benefit payments to participating
producers.
A sound storage program and a
continuing adjustment program are
the two sensible legs on which Amer
lean agriculture could move toward
longtime land program, stable pros
perity and improvement in rural nv-
ing standards.
In addition to these major activi-
ties, others of but slightly less i'm
portance are being stimulated. Last
year more than million farmers had
entered marketing agreements within
limited marketing fields such as fresh
fruits and vegetables. These con-
tracts have tended, through the CO.
operative action of the whole group,
to reduce fluctuations in supply and
price. These actions have been in
clined to reduce the ricks of market
ing agencies and the speculative ma
ture of the business to an extent
which has permitted low marketing
costs. Also, uniform grades and stand
ards have been introduced more widely
than before. These have resulted in
more uniform and generally higher
quality Of fruits and vegetables.
Excessive GIuts Avoided.
In most Of these agreements the
control of marketing is directed pri-
marily to the regulation of supply so
as to prevent excessive gluts between
markets and between different periods
Of the marketing season. In other
cases, as notably for canned peaches,
citrus fruits, fresh asparagus, etc.,
methods have been developed for
holding back excessive supplies from
the markets. In most cases the ex-
cess is diverted to by-products or for
use for relief purposes, or Is released
to the market as demand warrants.

Senator Byrd to attend a confer

acute situation brought about by
the below-cost prices of early Irish
potatoes. Gov. Richie of Maryland
and Gov. Ehringhaus Of North Caro-

this meeting which is scheduled for
Monday. Before requesting the con-
ference, Senator Byrd discussed the
matter with delegations of potato
growers from the Eastern Shore and

Senator Byrd's plan as explained
by him is to have the State emergency

them to the needy. He also pro-
poses to ask the Federal Relief Ad-
ministration to buy potatoes to be
distributed in the drought-s stricken

CHICAGO, June 23.-Apparent
drastic alteration for the worse in
European crop prospects led to pro-
nounced broadening of general specu-
lative interest in grains today, with
decidedly higher prices.
Fears of a damaging heat wave
in Canada gave added buoyancy to
wheat values as the day drew to an
end. Another outstanding feature
was that the Kansas City wheat
market displayed relatively greater
strength than did markets elsewhere,
despite enlargement of receipts in Kan
sas City. Millers were reported active
ly buying at Kansas City and paying
premiums for good milling wheat.
