Hi J Llnd of the Interior Warehouse com pany declares that the grain growers who have disposed of their crone are nn. loriunare, oecause ec nis Dener tnat grain prices will continue to rise, jut as tney nave aone ever since tne ran harvest. t The fact that a large percentage of the farmers of that and -other adjacent larming regiona were pressea nara ror cash, is given as the chief cause for the early sales. It is not because these rarmera have raised inferior crops that they are In need of money, for in fact tne crops were good aa a rule, but they are buying, their farms and need the money for payments. They cannot af- rora to Keep tneir money tied up in their crops. - A few years ago ths same farmers who are ' now holding their grain for the spring market and for a higher price, were numbered among those who were compelled to sell early to get the money. Theae are considered rich now, for with the money they secured for early sales they have completed pay ments on their homes and : have large areas of farming lands, , The aame rule applies to a great ex tent cloaer to Spokane, The crops have been aenerally more than satisfactory i and though there is scarcely as large a percentage of the growers who have sold ss there ara about Lewiston, those that have disposed of their grain have done so for the simple purpose of raising money tor payments on tneir rarma.
