It will be held at the Lexington Grange hall on Monday evening, May 25, begin ning at 8:00 p. m. This is a meet ing where all wheat farmers will have the opportunity to discuss and make recommendations con cerning the problems of wheat production and agricultude in general. With the disappearance of wheat in the U. S. so far this sea son, the smallest since 1912, it appears that there will be plenty of problems for discussion. April 1 stocks of wheat were the second largest of record; exports are down and milling requirements are running under a year ago. The County Committee have arranged for the best authori ties on the world wheat situation to be on hand to outline problems and answer questions our wheat growers are bound to face In wheat production. Bob Taylor, Athena, who has represented the Pacific Northwest in drafting the new International wneat Agreement and who was selected by Secretary of Agricul ture Benson as a member of his wheat advisory committee, will be present. Jens Terjeson, Pen dleton, president, National Asso elation of Wheat Growers, will outline their program. Each of the committee chair men will summarize action taken on recommendations made by Morrow county farmers last year.
