Farmers received an average
of Is cents a bushel under loan
price this harvest because of lack
of storage" Stanfield stated"
and spectators are selling the
farmers wheat three or four
times before it reaches the con-
sumers. The result is that farm

their wheat, and consumers are
paying high prices for their

told Missouri farmers.
Speaking before the annual
meeting of the Missouri Farmers
Association Monday (Aug. y, Sims
pointed out that there was an
ample supply of food and fiber
for all consumers. Prices to con-
sumers have gone up 9 percent in
the last five weeks, but the farm
price level has increased very
little. All major farm prices were
below parity July Is except an

Farmers are getting only 47c out

sumers for farm products.

40 E+ 8 Builds
Own Boxcar

The Madison County Voiture
AIT, 40 & 8 of the American Le-
gion believes it has a record to
be proud of. On Sunday morning,
July 80, the local Voiture owned
a truck skelton, donated by Voy-
ageur Cecil Forrest. For some
time, they have wanted a box car
for their Voiture so Sunday morn
ing several voyageurs began to
build a boxcar, never dreaming
it would be completed by Friday
night and ready to be driven to
Cleveland, where the 30th Grande
Promenade of the Grande Volt
ure of Ohio was held August 5,
6, and z. On Saturday evening,
the voyageurs proudly drove the
boxcar in the parade of the Grande
Voiture d Ohio down the main
streets of Cleveland. Five voyage
urs returned to West Jefferson

The first reported runs" oc-
Cured in food stores, where such
items as coffee, sugar, toilet It's
sue, soap, and various canned
goods sold rapidly and in some
stores were cleared from the
shelves. Scarce buying" quickly
spread to department stores and
other types of retail outlets. All
kinds of merchandise which had
been short in the last war, from
paper clips to automobiles, were
subject to the buying spree
The first rushes in department
stores were generally attributed
to out-and-out boarding. Gus
toners concentrated on hosiery
sheets, towels, pillowcases, tires
and tubes-soft goods which could
be stockpiled in attics and base
ments until needed. Then as sales
volume in those items began to
slacken, total sales volume
,, began to be buttressed by a rapid
turnover in refrigerators, washing
machines, deep freezers, television
sets and other so-called "big
ticket" lines. This expanded de-
mand for appliances and other
consumer durable goods could
not be classified as boarding in
the more common sense. 1t prob
ably was activated not only by
fear of future scarcities but also
by anticipation of credit controls
and higher prices. Many needs
which had previously seemed post
ponable were being turned into
current purchases. This type OF
buying is still continuing ir
strength and it may take consider.
ably longer to slow down thar
buying of staples.
Various means have been un.
dertaken to speed the return tt
more normal levels to retail trade
The President of the United States
has deplored boarding as being
foolish and selfish. The Depart
ment of Agriculture has ISSUED
statements that talloW and grease
for the making of soap are plenti
full and that the sugar sup
ply situation is good, with out
put above pre-war in all principa
areas except the Philippines ant
with reserve stocks available in
| Cuba. A labor union established
/ picket lines around Philadelphia
food stores with placards decry
ing boarding. San Francisco
stores learned that piling scarce
commodities in display window.
was effective in reducing buying
