WALLACE LIFTS CURB ON SPRING WHEAT ACREAGE Removal of Restrictions Is Likely to Check Rise in Food Prices. By Cniltd Brett WASHINGTON. Mxrch 21. Housewives had cause to hope today that bread prices will be held to reasonable levels and that soaring meat cost will be checked. Menace of drought and a grain shortage, pt'saged by a gigantic dust stoma gripping the . Middle West, compelled Secretary of Agriculture Henry A Wallace to remove all restrictions on the 1935 production of spring wheat. His announcement came amid national anxiety over rising food prices. The government, he said, owed a duty to consumers and could not take a chance on weather. In the Chicago wheat pits, where trading largely regulates the prices farmers receive and the millers pay for grain, his announcement evoked mixed reactions, making today's market reaction uncertain. Veteran La Salle-st traders conceded that its ultimate effect would be to cheapen bread prices, but pointed to clouds of Kansas dust swirling through the Loop as potent psychological factors in market trends. Another Drought Feared Little spring wheat is produced in the region most affected by the storm, however. East of the Mississippi where a large part of the spring wheat crop is grown, conditions ara excellent. Another drought, officials conceded, would drain the nation’s wheat supply to dangerously low levels and send che price of bread soaring. Retail bread, flour ?nd macaroni prices, despite the record small 1934 wheat crop, have increased less than 1 cent above a year ago, AAA figures showed. Officials were agreed, however, that another drought would result in a much sharper rise. Mr. Wallace's action put him in a new role, that of champion of the consumer. Hitherto he had ranked the fanners’ interests first. A decline in wheat prices probably will follow the removal of planting restrictions and the consequent larger crop, but consumers will benefit.

Livestock to Benefit The farmers’ percentage of the consumers’ dollar is now 87 per cent of what it was in the five years preceding the World War. Mr. Wallace said. In 1932. the percentage was only 47 per cent. Mr. Wallace's estimate included AAA crop control benefit payments, without which the farmer gets 78 per cent as much as he did of the 1909-1914 consumer dollar. Another effect of Mr. Wallace’s action on the cost of living will be that cheaper wheat will result in farmers feeding more to livestock. Herds will be enlarged and meat prices, now 25 to 53 per cent higher than a year ago, will be reduced. Farmers participating in the AAA acreage curtailment program who accept the offer to return to full spring vheat production must agree to make the same reductions next year as previously planned this season. They may be asked to make additional reductions. The AAA will pay the same amount for participation in the wheat program as if the curtailments 4 had been made, so the total of benefit payments to be distributed this year will remain unchanged. In addition to the benefits, farmers will get the full market price on an increased quantity of marketed wheat. Why Yon Should Never Cut a Corn If you are troubled with corns or eallouaea. do not run the ri*k of blood poison by paring them. Statistics show that many infections have occurred from this seemingly innocent practice of paring corns. Simply go to your druggist and get a few cents worth of Ice-Mint, rub a little on any painful corn or callous. Immediately the pain will disappear and in a short time the corn or callous will loosen and lift ofT easily with the fingers—root and all—leaving the surrounding skin in a healthy normal condition. • This, together with the fact that IceMint overcomes such affections as sore, tired, aching, puffed or burning feet and makes them cool, easy and comfort able. is probably responsible for the hearty endorsement given it by druggists. To rid one's feet of every hard corn, soft corn, corn between the toes or piinfnl callouses in such a pleasant and safe way. makes it seem the height of folly for any one to rare a corn and people are warned to stop it.— Adr.

AD CIRCULARS PUT UNDER BAN Postal Chiefs Open Drive to / Enforce Federal Laws on Subject. Announcement of a national drive by the postofflee departments to enforce Federal statutes giving postoffices monopoly over all transportation and delivery of letters has been made by Postmaster Adolph Seidensticker. Statutes giving this monopoly have been in effect many years, Mr. Seidensticker explained, but have not been rigidly enforced. The Federal definition of a letter is “any written or printed communication which conveys live, individual current information between the sender and the addressee upon which the latter may act, rely, or refrain from acting.”

‘1 SUFFERED WITH CONSTIPATION* FOR SIXTEEN YEARS’* Then All-Bran Brought Relief to Mr. McNeil We quote from his unsolicited letter: “I suffered with constipation* for 16 years. Finally, I started using Kellogg’s All-Bran in connection with other nourishing foods. “I consider myself a well man at this time, not hating had an attack for over two years. I am sure AllBran helped wonderfully by overcoming constipation*.”—Mr. L. M. McNeil, Lockwood, W. Va. * Constipation due to insuificient "bulk” in meals . Tests show Kellogg’s All-Bran provides gentle “bulk” to aid elimination. Also vitamin B and iron. This “hulk” resists digestion better than the fiber in fruits and vegetables, so it is more effective, i All-Bran continues to get results j when used for months. Isn’t this food safer than risking patent medicines? Two tablespoonfuls of All-Bran daily are usually sufficient. If seriously constipated, use with each meal. See your doctor, if you do not get relief. Use as a cereal with milk or cream, or in cooking. Sold by all grocers. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek. | Keep on the Sunny Side of Life
