FARMERS
W. H. Reed, a member of the Wash
ington state grain commission, be
lieves the Washington Millers' associa
tion and the exporters of the north
west have combined against the wheat
gTowers. Mr. Reed Is the man who
Introduced bluestem wheat Into the
northwest, and has, for years, taken a
lively Interest In the deevlopment of
the cereal Industry. In an Interview
with the Post-Intelligencer of Seattle,
upon the mill-exporters' combine, and
also upon the probability of the farm
ers combining for protection, he said:
"When the commission gave out to
the public that agreement of the millers-exporters'
combine, which bound
each member not to compete In buy
ing grain, to keep the buying price
down, they practically told the farm
ers that there was a conspiracy on
hand which the farmers had to fight
a conspiracy to pay them less than
their grain was worth; and to charge
them more for smutting than they
were fairly entitled to receive.
Fanners Must Fight.
' "The farmers can and will fight
that conspiracy, and they are going to
defeat It. How? Meet the buyers'
combine with a sellers' combine. The
farmers will make numerous com
bines; bunch up all over eastern
Washington, Oregon and northern
Idaho, and make their offers In cargo
lots. They will offer these cargo lots
to the combine and to buyers not In
the combine, and while they are out
gunning they should kill two birds
each shot by saying when offering
their cargo lots: 'The smutty part not
to be discounted over 4 cents a bushel;
no part to be sold unless the smutty
grain goes at that discount.' That'll
do the Job.
"The commission proved the injus
tice of the combine's '5 to 20-cent" dis
count on smutty wheat by citing the
discount prevailing In Minneapolis of
but 2 cents a bushel. Let me read
you a letter, giving smutty wheat dis
count from the Northwestern Consol
idated Milling company of Minneapo
lis. It says: 'It would require dock
age from two to three pounds for
washing badly smutted wheat, and
wheat not very bad would require
about one pound for scouring.'
"With such proof of the right of the
farmers' attitude In refusing to allow
the combine more than 4 cents dis
count twice what Minneapolis would
make they can push their cargo
combines to a winning, sure. Do you
know what that would mean to the
farmers in dollars and cents?
s Have Grower f 192,009 TbS Year.
' "The crop this year in eastern
Washington alone is estimated at 32,
000,000 bushels. The state inspection
department figures that 20 per cent
of that crop Is Bmutty that would
give 8,400,000 bushels of smutty
wheat, lne combines discount is, asi
Indeed, probable, to come on heavier
testing wheat, the 60, 61, 62 and 63
pound wheat, which Is now confis
cated at a No. 1 price. The commis
sion's decisions snowed that the 60-
pound tost wheat was worth more
than a 68 or 69-pound test. It show
ed this by that admission of the Port
land chamber of commerce commit
tee, and by the extract on prices from
the millers' association secret com
pact. "San Francisco is paying more for
60-pound test wheat than for a 68
pound test. San Francisco needs from
Washington, Oregon and Idaho this
year 10,000,000 bushels of heavy test
ing wheat.
"Let the farmers' combine offer
their heavy test wheat to San Fran
cisco buyers. They won't have to
make many such offers. The millers-
exporters' combine will promptly
come to time, and.pay the additional
price that heavy testing wheat Is
worth. The farmer Is entitled to It
let him get his own. He can win Just
as sure as I did when I introduced
bluestem wheat In this state. The
original seed came from Australia.
Dem.eH brothers brought it to AValla
Walla. I sowed 560, acres in It and
advertised the crop for seed. Sold It
all for seed but one carload, which 1
refused to sell because all the millers
and exporters said It was worth more
than club.
"I sent my reserve car to the Sperry
Bros. Milling Company at San Fran
cisco, and they wrote me: 'Our price
now, and hereafter, for such wheat is
6 cents a hundred pounds over the
price of No. 1 California shipping.'
That was 3 cents a bushel over club
price. I published that letter, and
from that date. 18 years ago. to this,
bluestem has brought that premium
over club everywhere from every
body. That one piece of work of
mine made the farmers of this state,
in this year alone. $240,000. Don't
you see the application? It's directly
to the point. It, by demonstration,
makes plain that when the farmers'
combines find one buyer who will
pay more than the millers-exporters'
combine, they will have then and
there started the disintegration of that
combine."

In a short time. Before turning them
on the market the sheep are clipped.
Mr. Donohue has contracted his wool
for 27 cents a pound In Chicago, which
insures him a handsome profit.
In speaking of the markets Mr.
Donohue said: "Unlike this section,
the meat Is all handled through the
meat trusts. Independent butchers
and packers are unknown. Every
sheep Is slaughtered in the trust's
plants and the profit shaved off before
reaching the retailer. There are a
number of smaller packing plants run
ning under separate names from the
big plants, but these are owned bodily
by the trusts." La Grande Observer.

a saving of 3 cents a bushel, and of

"The saving these decisions make
directly for Qie farmer, without neces

as It seems to be the only satisfactory
way of handling the Indian liquor
question. Since the supreme court's
decision that allotment Indians are
citizens, thus giving them the right to
buy whiskey and alcohol when they
wish, there has been a great deal of
talk over the matter.
The decision of the city council to
revoke the license of any saloonkeep
er caught selling liquor to the red
skins has only settled the question In
part. The great trouble has been that
the Illegal liquor traffic has been car
ried on by outsiders and the Indians
have been able to obtain as much
whiskey as they wished in this way. a

"We nre prepared to substantiate
with reliable evidence the charge
made by us to the Interstate com
merce commission that the Northern
Pacific and Burlington railroads per
mit the packing house combine to dic
tate the rates on live hogs from Mis
souri river points to Seattle, and that
the rates are discriminatory against
ourselves as Seattle packers of hog
products," said Charles H. Frye, pres
ident of the Frye-Bruhn company yes
terday afternoon to the Seattle News.
The Frye-Bruhn company has re
cently made sensational charges
against the two roads mentioned In
which they accuse the roads of re
fusing, In the Interests of the pack
ing house combine, to make fair rates
on live hogs to the Pacific northwest,
although such rates are made by the
southern transcontinental roads from
Missouri river points to California
terminals where firms belonging to
the combine have packing houses.
"Before the railroad mprgor and be
fore the perfection of the packers'
combine the roads gave up living
rates on live hogs from the Missouri
river," said Mr. Frye, "but since the
merger and the combine has dictated
the rates to the roads, and the result
has been to discriminate against the
operation of pncklng houses on the
Pacific coast.
Unjust Discrimination.
"Hogs nre shipped to the best ad
vantage In double deck cars. The
roads make rates on live hogs based
on a car capacity of 60,000 pounds,
while as a matter of fact with but
one floor only 16,000 pounds of hogr
can be loaded In a car. By charging
us what Is practically a double decked
car rate for a single decked carload
of hogs the eastern packers have rates
on the manufactured products which
are much lower than our rates on
live animals and nre therefore nble
to undersell us here. The natural re
sult of this competition Is to drive all
the packing house business to the
centers selected by the members of
of the railroads In refusing to make
rates for double decked cars west
bound. Nino months of tho year
there Is plenty of traffic east
bound for the same cars in the ship
ment of sheep. With this traffic
matching the traffic in hogs westbound
the cars can be loaded in both direc
tions. Rates on Stock Car.
"In 1897 tho Northern Pacific and
tho Burlington made a rate from Mis
souri river points to Seattle via Bil
lings on hogs of $261 per double
decked 36-foot car. Last year this
rate was withdrawn and the companies
refused to reinstate It, and even re
fused to make any rate on double
decked carloads on hogs.
For four days' In August, 1904, the
roads made a rate ot $240 from Omaha
to Seattle on a double decked carload,
but this rate was withdrawn and has
not since been made. The existing rate
per single decked car Is $170. We
claim that we are entitled to a rate
of $226 per double decked 36-foot
car and that any rate In excess of that
Is discriminatory in favor of the east
ern packers." 1
