FH HOLDING BREAD GRAIN ARE • REAPINGPROFITS Members of Cooperative Associations Get Top Prices. Bv United Pres* KANSAS CITY, Jan. 23. —The wheat farmer of the Southwest who stored his grain after the harvest last fall instead of hurrying it to market reads the accounts of $2 wheat these days, with the satisfied feeling that better times are in store for him. According to H. M. Bainer, president of the Southwest Wheat Improvement Association, the farmer is getting the top price for his product these days as registered in the pits at Kansas City and Chicago. Wheat Holders Profit That is he is getting these prices if he held his grain. The margin of profit over his less fortunate brother who marketed his wheat direct from the fields is better than a dollar a bushel In 6klahoma and Texas 17,000 farmers, members of a cooperative growers' association, have received J 8,500,000 for that many bushels of Mfieat so far. In February an aduted among them. Members of the growers’ association in the southwest pooled their wheat at the end of the harvest with the intention of holding it until wheat prices soared as they are doing now. Only Few Cars Released Early last fall wheat receipts in Kansas City ran as high as 1,600 cars a week. This, according to Bainer, was because farmers who could not afford to hold their grain, were dumping it on the market for what they could get—which wasn't much compared to present prices. Cooperative organizations however released only a few score cars a week from their well-filled elevators. Needy members of the groups were furnished money through, the organizations fund until their wheat was sold. Gradually the wheat has been placed on the market until it is estimated that only about 10 or 16 per cent of last year’s crop is on hand. - BICYCLIST FOUND DEAD BeKeve Heart Attack Followed Crash With Auto.

COLLEGE EXPERT PREDICTS WATER RATION SHORTLY Forest Conservation Urged to Halt Dwindling Water Supply, ' Bv United Preit NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 23. The United States will be on a water ration within a comparatively short time if steps are not taken at 4nce to qpnserve our forests and through them our water supply, Frederick H. Newell, former director of the United States Reclamation Service told members of the Yale Forestry Club. • "The use of America’s water supply is rapidly approaching the stage when it will be necessary to apportion the amount to be used for drinking and household use before Industries are allowed to use any for manufacturing purposes,” Newell said. “Our rainfall remains fairly constant,” Newell said, “It is only as we change its direction by the removal of the forests and contaminate the streams by dumping waste that a shortage of water may ensue.” Newell, who has made a life long study of the water situation in America, pointed out the close connection between forests and water resources and appealed for greater conservation of our rapidly vanishing timberlands. , In the past navigation has been given first call, but of recent years water for drinking and household usee has ranked first, he said. The greatest problem confronting most cities is not so much a supply af water as a supply of good water. Newell said, adding the streams and lakes all over the country were being ruined by waste. MARKET BILL IS FAVORED IN HOUSE Report Carrying Amend-1 ments Is Approved, By a viva voce vote the House today adopted the report of the agricultural committee favoring passage of the farmers' cooperative margeting bill with amendments.

In the section providing for penalty for breach of contract was added: "In addition, said pert on or said corporation shall pay the association a reasonable attorney fee and all costs involved In any such litigation, or proceedings at law.” Subway to Be Rebuilt The State highway commission has contracted with the Pere Marquette Railway Company for reconstruction of a subway under the company’s tracks north of La Porte on State Road 26, The subway is now built of wooden piling with piles in the center of the highway.
