League to Hear
Wheat Analysis
By Stanford Man
The Dalles The present economic
position of wheat throughout the
world, which is one of ihe principal
topics interesting the Oregon wheat
grower, will be discussed at the an
nual meeting of the Eastern Oregon
Wheat league by Dr.' M. K. Bennett,
economist of the food research in
stitute at Stanford university, it is
announced by C. W. Smith, league
secretary.
The eleventh annual convention
of the wheat league will be held
here December 1 to 3, with the pub
lic program on the last two days. The
first day will be devoted to prelim
inarv work of the various commit
tees in preparing tentative reports
for consideration by the convention.
Governor-elect Charles A. Sprague
and Senator-elect Rufus Holman
have been invited to attend the an
nual banquet - Friday night Con
gressman Walter M. Pierce, who has
just been re-elected, is also expected
to attend both this and other ses
sions of the convention.
Those who attended the previous
convention of the league in The
Dalles recall that Dr. J. S. Davis, di
rector of the food research institute
at Stanford, spoke on the wheat sit
uation at that time. His analysis of
the wheat problem throughout the
world was very well received, and
it is believed by those in charge of
the program that the analysis of Dr.
Bennett of the same institution will
be equally illuminating this year.
. Interest is also being shown in the
scheduled address by C. I. Sealy of
the federal weed experiment station
at Genessee, Idaho, who will report
on results obtained through recent
research in the control of the more
important noxious weeds.
