" Jost after the beginning of the year a evil swing started, contrary to an mus ket traditions, and as it draws t a close prices are roana near in ion m as new w lowa ia the lac of traoe facta ana.nutory. ' j Tn bulla nav seen, aaeeesanu latety w nering all normal factors beoans all kinds or class legialation deeianed to aid the farmer has been introduced in congress, out of which it is held reasonable to expect that soma help ful law vdll be evolved. : Among th more im portant messnres to this end before congress If toe out to appropriate esoti.wv.uvw i u" parpos of financing export purenasea ny xor eian eountriea.

Europe baa been trying to solve tha poxal of getting her monies back to a normal rat of exchange. Fruitless conferences looking toward u ena were bald at th Hague. Genoa- and at .London twice. To tha innocent Bystander all oi tnose gatherings appeared to be foredoomed to failure because tha Cnited States, th creditor nation, took a part. ' From recent developments it looks as U the United Ststes would b drawn into th discussions before a way out of the difficulty is found. Establishment of Germany a sounder financial oesie wiu nui maw of th economic problems of tha United States aa well as of tha nations of Europe. ' etaasoeians sno figures time arte urns regarding th world supply of grain and it requirements but none of them hss been far sighted enough to take into- consideration the reduced consumption snroaa as a resuis oi tae strained finances, of th European nation. When the foreigner has no resources ha curtail his buying power even to eeoncenizing on food. Cunt i in may pass fegislatioa to stimulate this foreign demand but little success can be hoped for when prices are put above those asked by Canada and Argentina, our chief nieti torn. - In the month of December we find concen trated hotdings in wheat, corn and oats and ia flataif nrieea aa a remit. Hiafae DTtoea Of the crop season were estsMiiihed in tha 12th month sa to results of tns opersnons oi to same iittamxta which defeated the May hulls in wheat. Encouraged by the government they have en hanced valnes above a world's yanty. :. May ' Wheet Deal Big Feature The May wheat deal waa the big feature of tks tmt.' A eotsri of loeal traders headed by Arthur Cotton were the longs, and. cash Interest headed bv th Armonr Grain company were tha shorts.' Tha price at th start of the month was $1.49 whils on the last day of May $1.18 waa th low point and th close was near tha . num. Thens wen nearly 14.000.000 bushels of wheat deHvsred to the longs and although they were able to finance th grain they experienced difficulty in burying th aornsa. Stocks of wheat at th start of the month were not so large but the Southwest waa loaded rm with wheat, which ther were un able to sell to th export trade - and these stocks played an important part in defeating the purposes of the bulls. Not only did Kansas City. , fit. Louis, St. Jo and Omaha furnish wheat for the shorts bah Dulnth and Minne apolis disposed of surplus wheat and there was cash wnsat crougnt mcje irom -aoisoo ana xtui- falf ' . After the collapse of th May deal the market went tnrougfi its usual course or carves, traae, however, bain of reduced volume. During September the world waa electrified by the eome-back of the Turk in Asia and his mili tant attitude after routing the Greek troops caused a broadening in speculative activity oa tha theory that there would be another Euro pean war, with turkey tas torn comer. GiooHiy Opening for Veep . The year opened rather gloomily. On the laat business dsy of 1921 the failure of one of tha bisaest commission houses in the trade was announced, a house with the best-of repn- taaooa, This was followed ny the announce ment nf a bis Chicaaa hank beinc absorbed by snot her institution because of f inane 11 dif ficulties of the firs. French banks also were reported eipenenein difficulty Because of froaen credits. All this made the grain pecu lator feel that grain was worth next to nothing. However, after the gloom had been dissipated and some of the reoorts denied regarding fi nancial troubles abroad, a bull move developed which culminated -in the collapse of the Msy delivery. Cengrees had appropriated $20,000, OOO for th nurehsss ef seed wheat for Knssia and this tended to inspire bullish hope. Other lectors were ta - bolnsa winter wueai crop reports and alaa th estimates of tha exhaustion of th surplus of id wheat and small iarm rcaarvsn, ...-. Producers Are : Discontented Despite' favorable' yields and hither prices for his product, the producer hss shown dis contented nea the entire year. The final re port rf tha year showed that values of. farm nrodneta were S2.1 ner cent greater than year aso on December 1. A us year was one ef exceesiT heat and drouth at t5mes but in spite ef this the production of the principal grain crops was senerally in excess of laat nar. There win 17 8.QOU.OOO buanels i cm nrodoeed than in 1921 and 14.000, 00O bushels less of winter wneac xne spring woe crop was 56.000,000 bushels better tots year. oatav l27'.ooo.ooo basnets more, rye os.ouu. O0O bushels mora and barley 82.000.000 bushels more. Dry westher cut down the area of the newly seeded winter wheat crop but beneficial rains and snow placed th condition above that of 1921. ; . - - Oats limply followed tha leaders wrougnout the year. Th farm value was 4iO,o6,uuu against $826,954,000 last year. The crop this year waa a good -on both as to quantity and quail tr. The latter point resulted in en larged export for th first 10 aaoatha. the figures being 27.0O0.OOO Dusneia uua against 8.000,000 bushels last yea.

AU grains are quoted higher at the closing of 1922 than for lS21and the average prices received wars much better. While there wras a much smaller crop of wheat than tbe record breaker of 1921 wheat grow-ers received better returns. The same is true of oats and barley crops and prices for' the season. - - , While chickens sold substantially at the same prices as a, . year aLgo. this could be accounted for by the fact that offerings this year were unusually heavy, therefore had a deprensin&T effect upoa vslues. Livestock as a rule sold beyond the values of 1921. al though cloning figures for cattle are fractionally under the year ago figures.
