WHEAT IS GOING UP.
EUGENE MYER JR. IN CHARGE.
BEER AND SHIPS.
MORE THAN AIR MAIL SERVICE.
The Deimrtment of Agriculture
says farmers all lost money on their
wheat last year. It cost 31.24 a
bushel to grow it. The average price
was 99 cents. Unless all signs full,
farmers will get all the wheat costs
this year and a good deal more.
Many sections of the country pro
ducing fewer than IS bushels of
wheat to the acre, with labor sail
fertiliser costing what they do. it Is
hard to see how wheat can pay,
even at 31.24. The Republican plan
is to force the price to 31.50. How
many votes would that iw worth?
If farmers have any wheat un
sold from the last crop—they usually
have none when the price goes lip-
let them hang on to it. And if they
are wise they will hold for high
prices the wheat now being threshed.
When the really big people want
wheat to go up. as they do now. it
goes up. They have the power to
make it go. It Is not like one In
dividual. professional wheat gam
bler. or little pool, trying to tight
the wolves of the “short side."
Other grains, corn especially, and
cotton and stocks, will travel upward
with the wheat What Republican
victory. RIG VICTORY, demands is
a prosperity boom. You'll have it.
Readers may remember that this
writer, when cotton was below 25.
announced that it would travel up
to 35. It did. moving steadily and
higher than 33. What the big fel
lows want really happens.
Eugene Myer. Jr., able young citi
zen of many millions, is In charge
of the plan to put up the prices of
wheat and of other farm products to
make farmers happy, and enable the
Government to lend them more
money.
DON'T GAMBLE. HOWEVER It
Is virtuous to pray that fanners
may have better times and better
prices. It's foolish to gamble on It.

Dr. E. Lyuian Fisk, scientific

doesn't matter so much how LONG
