VOTXCB TO RUB8CED3E1I J promptly and PROTECTING WHEAT GROWERS. r V PROCLAMATION' Hie president has .fixed the liiiniiinini lirii-e for wheat for 1919 at the lirevalinn S'-liedule with $2. '20 a bushel as a base. A eoiiiiiiissimi ttii be named next spring will determine wliethei' the wheat grower is entitled to a higher price on aeeoiint of ihe in creased cost of production. The action is taken to encourage a larger planting of wheat by guaranteeing Ihe market. The fanner who plants is assured of his fixed market and stable price, whether tho war ends or not, and the loss if any, will be upon the government and people. Jf the war were to end suddenly, there would be a collapse in tho price of wheat that would spell disaster to the grower unless he was protected by guarantee. There is no dearth of wheat in the world but there is a dearth of ships to transport the wheat. There are half a million bushels ih Australia and India, awaiting export, and a new crop being harvested. There is an exportable surplus of over !")() million bushels in South America hut there are no ships to send it in. Tho British government guarantees the growers in India and Australia : cents a bushel lor the wheat thev hold for shipment, while they are holding it, while South American wheat can be bought at l..i(i a bushel. If the war ends, and the ships busy transporting army supplies are released, Australian, Indian and Mouth American wheat will flood the world's markets and the price will drop and only the guaranteed government price, which can be protected by tariff barriers, will prevent a sudden slump in the United States which will prove injurious to growers. J he. senate cabal which has repeatedly attempted to force a $2.50 price for wheat upon the countrv, which would mean addit ional cost to the people of $:587,00O.OOO. will prohably renew its agitation for a higher guaranteed price or none at ail which latter could only work injury To the producer as the tormer does to the consumer. oockxxxocoxcxxxooockxxx America's Roll of Hon6r Today's Casualty List Sent By Pershing From Battle Front in France.

If you don't fully understand the present system of sugar conservation and distribution, read on; it may help you know what is expected of you by the government concerning your use of this commodity, and as sist you in your shopping arrange ments. First, last, and all the time (regardless of what tho various rea sons are) a strict ndhnreneo to the food administrator's regulations on Ihe uso of siigiir is a service that vitally assists tho "hut ion's war pro gram. Accept Unit us an absolute fact now, and later lcurn llio various reasons at your leisure; you will find It an Interesting lesson In transporta tion problems and economics, anil II may give you an even livelier Inter est in the ways that wars uro won. Tho first regulation Is that no per son shall consume nt Ills meals more I linn pounds of sugar within each :tu days, and purchases for homo uso must bo limited to this amount ac cording to tho millibar In the family. For instance, If there nro three in the family, the total consumption of sugar, for both table use and cooking must not exceed li pounds for each niuntli. Town residents, no matter how many in the family, cannot pur chase more than 2 pounds at a time: country residents more than ,"i pounds at a time. It can bo purchased as often ns necessary during tho month In theso amounts, provided the max imum amount does not aggregate more than would eiiuat 2 pounds per' person in tho family for that month. This Is in addition to your running sugar. For canning, sugar ran only bo bought In lots of 2.1 pounds, or less, at a time. The first 2,"i pounds can lie obtained direct from the merchant without ii permit from the county food administrator. Subsequent purchases for canning (no matter hou many in tho ramil.vl can only be Hindu after obtaining a permit from the county food administrator or as sistant. There la no rule about what can lie used per mouth for canning; this allowance Is luiseil on Hie num ber In tlie family. For the present. Ihe total ii u :i M ! 1 1 v for running during (his entire season that will be Issue! lo any family Is what would equal about 1,", pounils for each person In the family. If an additional allow ance Is authorized later, duo notice will be given thru tlie press. Hired help and others citing regu larly at Ihe homo are counted as a nieint'cr of Ihe lamlly in making these allowances. E 1 McCurdy Agency (iencral Insurance Medford National Hank Illdg.
