Ban yraneKco, lot Angeles, Seattle, Portland. .Clucato Detroit, New Tori THE WHEAT Many farmers are reported ... . . ... . in anticipation of a Higher price, ine aroiun in me miuuie west, the threat of war in Euroe and reports of a compara tively light crop in the Argentine, Russia and the other wheat producing countries of the world makes the situation look a hit rosy to the eyes of many Northwest growers. While not posing as experts on the wheat situation at any time or even attempting advice, we cannot refrain, however, from expressing opinion gathered from observation over a good many years. And that has brought to us a conviction that in about one, and at the most two years out of ten the farmer who sells at harvest time reaps the greatest benefit and return on his crop. The price may rise a bit higher but costs of insurance, storage and other expense incidental to the "holding" process by the farmer usually eats up that possible gain and more. The grower who sells right out of the harvest without these expenses gains full benefit of the market at the time and further reduces his loans and in terest costs accordingly. "Holding" or gambling on price rise by the buyer who has capital to withstand the whims of the market does at times result in good profit but hanging on by Die man who produces the crop "hits" beyond harvest to his good about once in ten. In the present situation the market would seem to be on the way up to a better price. The present situation was a "natural" for the manipulators in the big pits to get the price riding toward a high. We would not be surprised, however, to soon receive press reports from the middle west that devastating as the drouth has been there is still quite a fjuantity of. good wheat ready for harvesting; other reports from. foreign. markets that their situation was not as bad as I first thought and some good crops are in prospect; 'that war, believed imminent in Europe has quieted somewhat for the present; other and various reports indicating that surpluses and new wheat situation are counted on, and then perhaps some new government move to help the depleted situation. All with the resultant rush by the bulls of the market. and down again with the price. The price of wheat will rise and fall, undoubtedly as of yore. We're still tatting, however, that the grower who sold this week from 72 to 75 made a wise deal, unless he was financially able to withstand a big gamble. PLAYING FAIR W ITH THE VOTERS Jay II. Upton, -nominee of iho Republican party for con gress ii the second Oregon Governor Meier his resignation as representative ol the 17th Oregon district in the halls of the state senate. It. was a commendable move typical of the fine and sportsmanlike character of the statesman and exemplifies his belief in a , square deal. Upton could have held on to his state sena torial office until after the November finals and with his election to the higher office the matter of selection of his successor in the state liody would have been entirely in the hands of appointment by the governor. I!y his retirement uforetime, however, the voters of the district which he lias represented for many years in the state senate, will be al lowed in November to choose by regular ballot the man of their own selection to fill Upton's place in the higher law making body at Salem.
