Olds, Wortmaii & King
Spokane Keports Storage Facilities
Taxed Almost to Capacity
and Situation Similar
Elsewhere.
PPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 11. (Spe
cial.) A serious wheat congestion Is
' threatening grain terminals of the
' Northwest. The limit of storage ca
pacity in Spokane has almost been
reached and mill and grain men are
today advising farmers not to ship
their grain directly to terminal points.
"Our advice to farmers is to assem
ble wheat at the primary shipping
points where they have storage." says
R. T. Lord, of the Seattle Grain Com
pany. "From the shipping- points It
can then be moved as fast as it can
be handled to the terminals.
"We already have a congestion at
every terminal and there is a conges
tion of wheat now at Spokane. The
tracks are full of wheat cars and the
mills and grain houses are behind in
their loading:. Our local storage ca
pacity Is pretty well exhausted. If
the farmers need money, they can haul
their grain to the local shipping points
and we will finance them at 6 per
cent until the grain is sold."

Beat Meana of Conducting; Pledge
Card Campaign in Ortioo.
School teachers and children of Ore
gon have been selected for work in
one of the most important and far
reachizig food conservation drives of
the war the pledge card campaign.
It has been decided by the- state ex
ecutive committee that the schools
have perhaps the best all-round organi
zation available, so they will be given
opportunity of doing their bit in this
big drive, which will be formally
launched for the week of October 21-28.
That week will be set aside by the
entire Nation, during which an effort
will be made to get every home signed
up to the little cards which say to the
food administrator:
"I am glad to Join you in the serv
ice of food conservation for our Na
tion and hereby accept membership in
the United States Food Administration,
pledging myself to carry out the direc
tions and advice of the food adminis
trator in my home, in so far as my cir
cumstances will permit."
Backed by the school authorities, the
teachers and pupils will endeavor to
carry these cards into every home in
Oregon, have them signed and returned
to the proper place.
The work is being directed from the
office of W. B. Ayer, food administrator
for Oregon, through the supervision of
A. M. Churchill, State Superintendent
of Public Instruction.
