When so many of >>ur young men will be called to service under the colors, our state and counties should undertake no improvements other than what absolute necessity requires.

Thia la the tlticago price for standard wheat and unless Portland is made a primary point of purchai«*, the Portland price will be about SI VO per bushel.

But the cutting out of Pacific I roast citMm where wheat for export centers. fr««m being depots of pri mary purchase bv the government. : is not encouraging to the wheat farmer. There is no reason for' penalizing Oregon farmers by the assumption that their wheat pro ducts must be transported to the Atlantic seaboard over the railroads. But there are several reasons whv freighting through the canal should be stimulated and the northwest farmers encourage«! to grow greater wheat cropgnfxt year One and a very excellent reason that It will greatly reduce the .car shortage which is sure to lie on when the moving of the preaent crop is in full blast Even now it is next to impossible to get a car for local freighting and to congest freight traffic as it was last winter, will discourage rather than encourage the wheat grower. Whether the Pacific roast cities were purposely overlooked in select ing cities of primary purchase. The I Tribune is not Informed. But there is injustice in making the Oregon wheat grower sell his product for 50 cents leas than the Illinois farmer is paid. The government should administer justice more evenly.
