HOW TO FINANCE GRAIN, 1 0 BE TOPIC OF CHICAGO MEET
By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. A meeting of vital interest to the grain trade will be held by the 'Committee of lfi" at Chicago on July 6. ThiB committee will take up the discussion of plans for a reopening of trading in wheat futures. With the harvest of new wheat crop now on and the movement now at hand, there is an increasing disposition on the part of interior cash grain handlers to seek security in a hedging market. ThU kind of a market dealers have not had at any point, since the government first fixed the wheat minimum and the United States Grain Corporation virtually took over the grain crops by furnishing an unlimited market at ihe minimum price, at all central marke's where farmers or dealers might ship. Iowa Bankers Take Action. Iowa bankers have many millions tird up in grain in store in that state. The estimate is that there are 100,000,000 bushels of various grains in Iowa, on most of which banks have loans, and the money involved will now be badly needed to finance the new crop. The banks also have heavy live stock loans to farmers, "who are unable to market for lack of cars." Loans on niiove commodities represent the largest total for any state in the Chicago Reserve district. A committee of bankers Is now in Washington to ask the interstate commerce commission for a preferential order for freieht cars for Iowa, to move the Brain now in store, to make room for the incoming crop and to thus free millions of dollars in loans now tied up because the grain has not been moved to central markets and paid for. The claim is made that a serious situation will develop unless last gear's crop moves before the new crop harvested. Financing Wool Clip. F. R. Marshall, secretary of the National Wool Growers' association, announces from Washington that plans for the financing of the wool growers have been worked out at conferences of the Federal Reserve Board. According to Mr. Marshall: "A wool grower may ship his wool to one of the usual poirts of distribution, and may draw aga nst his bill of lading for such an amount as he and his banker may ag'ee on. The Federal Reserve act authorizes any member bank to accent a draft secured in this manner, the draft to mature in not more than six nonths. The same act provides for a rediscount of this paper for an addiional three months, after the first maturity, also for loans on warehouse receipts. Wool growers believe this loan plan practical and that it will be sufficient to tide them over until there is a normal wool market. As with grain, so with wool. Millions of pounds are held in every wool
state and cars to move wool from in- j
terior points to warehouse centers are a paramount, consideration; just as with grain at country points.
awaits the coming of tlie first conven--tion of the American Legion of Indiana which is to be held in this city June j 27, 28 and 29. Every 'public building has been! thrown open and every citizen of Vin-! cennes has been made a member of the reception committee which will j
devote its entire time to caring for the 7,000 visitors who are expected from all parts of Indiana. Business will practically be suspended during the convention in order that local as well as visiting people may participate in the $25,000 worth of entertainment that will be offered.
The Farm and the Farmer BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN
Bean Rust: Avoid It
E. E. RICE. Garden Supervisor. Don't pick the beans when the dew Is on them or after a rain. In fact, don't even walk through the beans when the vines are wet. There is only one ailment of the string bean, and that Is rust, and it isn't likely to cause any bother if the warning against disturbing the vines when they are wet is followed. A walk through the beans, when wet after a rain, means there will be a path of rust to correspond. Above all, don't try to hoe the bearing vines when they are wet. String beans may be planted every week until midsummer for a continuous succession crop. A twenty-five-foot row with the plants six inches apart is enough for the average family.
According to Eden Martindale some I of the Greensfork district farmers will j cut their wheat pretty green "because I it is falling down." He states that a
lot of samples of growing wheat were brought to the elevator on Thursday . mhty good to me." Some farmers will cut wheat next 11j StUU. Mr. Martindale stated that he had ordered 115 wool bags so far, and that uiey ouid use 30 or more for their own purchases of wool made two weeks or so ago. There have been reports from various farmers of "falling wheat," in flyInfested fields, and whil this mm-
nlaint is by no means general, or the losTse- reported li?avy, Eti.l, it is likely to hasten the cutting, here and there. Harvest Two Weeks Away. Frank M. Campbell, of College Cor
ner, says: "I don't think we shall cut j
any wneat down this way for at least two weeks. Haven't heard much complaint of fly infested wheat falling down, but some fields show this in spots. Wheat has improved and there are some promising fields but no great crop in sight." Mr. Campbell said that he attended
