Feed Prices to Be Lower

Good news for Maryland producers
of livestock. and poultry products is
found in the 1949 outlook statement
released by the Extension Service
The prediction is for feed grain
prices to average about a third lower
this winter than last. The statement
is made that in recent months prices
of oats, barley, and grain sorghum
have fallen to support levels while
corn prices have fallen below the
government loan rate due to lack of
storage.
Along with the expected drop in
prices, an above grain production in
Maryland has been reported for this
past year. Maryland hay production
was almost as large as the record
1917 crop. Alfalfa tonnage was con-
siderably above average and higher
than last year. Except for the first
cutting. the quality Of the hay is
generally good. In fact, the agri-
cultural economists predict that
holding hay for later market is not
likely to be a profitable operation
this season"

As perhaps the busiest writing
man in the Middle Atlantic States
as of now, Mr.. Trey has one problem
that Hollywood cannot help him to
solve. He is looking for title for
his book, his summing up OF his
years as head Of the Treasury's
agents. He had one once, a perfect
title Of only three words, Death

Parker had used 1t for a book that
had nothing to do with either death
or taxes, which have been the life

Neither Mr.. Trey nor Hollywood
has thought of the movie one OF
his luncheon companions believes
would be the most inspiring that
could be made of his life; a picture
strictly about Elmer l.. Trey, the
man instead of his work.
For 80 years, he has been a suf-
ferer from diabetis, but it never
interfered with his job. More re-
markably, for man who looks a
lively As Of his 80 years, he has had
two coronary thrombosis attacks
and suffers q residual heart con-
dition that would keep most men IN
bed.
He Just did not like the idea Of
being an invalid, in fact never had
time to give 1t q second thought.
One Of those lively Hollywood
script writer's should be able to make
something Of that. Something pretty
remarkable. Mr.. Trey himself is far
too modest and far too busy with
all those other jobs that have alb
sorbed him since retirement.
For the moment. he is oil to his
