Prices Are Reduced 45 Cents a Barrel by Big Minneapolis Millers.. ' '
CHICAGO. May 13. Flour prices hare been reduced 45 cents a barrel
by the big Minneapolis millers who r
did not lower prices last week. The best brands are now selling at $13.35 to the retail-trade.- Rye flour is off 50 cents a barrel within a few days. The food administration, anxious to keep the price of flour down, issued a circular to bakers and flour dealers last night. It said that recent advances In flour prices had: created an industrial situation menacing In the extreme, and that, under its responsibilities, extending to the actual proclamation of peace. It cannot fail to take cognizance of the situation. "Nor do we believe," it continues, "that the trade Itself, realizing the advances in flour, unnecessarily Inspired, are distinctly against the public inter
ests at this time, will resent our mak
ing certain inquiries in order to reach an intelligent decision as to a policy." Control Is Relaxed.
. The circular says it is not desirous to reinstate control, relaxed since the
armistice, if it can be avoided by voluntary action of the trades. The food administration says there . Is a sufficiency of wheat In this coun

Proper Cultivation of Com la Very Important Matter
By P. G. HOLDEN. FREQUENT cultivation of corn early in the season is important. It may be deep and should be level. Late cultivation should always be shallow. We must not forget that deep cultivation early In the season saves the moisture and r frequent cultivation kills the weeds. There Is no danger of injuring the corn roots by cultivating deep the first time. It pays to go deep enough to secure a good mulch. This conserves the moisture keeps it stored In the soil and makes It available

Root System of Corn, Showing Necessity of Making the Late Cultivation Shallow. during the hot, dry days of July or August. The best time to kill weeds Is before they come up. The sooner they "are killed. the better, as they use up moisture and plant food that will be needed by the corn.
Every care should be taken to see that the young corn is not stunted, as it never fully recovers. Blind cultivation of corn is an excellent practice; Blind cultivation is cultivating the corn before it comes up. by following the planter marks and throwing the dirt away from the rows. This should be followed by a harrow in the same direction in a day or two. This conserves moisture, kills weeds; keeps the ground from getting hard and cracked. As the corn grows its roots spread out just below the surface of the ground like the limbs of a tree. For this reason later cultivation should be no deeper than is necessary to keep the corn clean. Deep cultivation is sure to Injure the roots perhaps cut them off. This impairs or stops the growth of the corn and reduces the yield.
