EXCHANGE SITUATION SENDS VAST STORES OF GOLD TO AMERICA

(Tlv Aoiirv'aTed Presa) NEW YORK. May 5. A veritable flood of gold is sweeping upon the shores of the United States. Already the precious metal in the country shas attained the unprecedented amount of $3,00J,4S7,915 and yet the tide is ri? ing. Financiers attribute this to the fact that the United States is world's one "creditor nation" and for the equally important reason that the other nations of the world find it well nigh impossible to transact business wirli this country, by reason of their own depreciated currency. The precious metal is coming from all auarters of the srlobe. but the Eu ropean countries, more particularly j Great Britain and France, as well a the Scandinavian nations, are paying heaviest toll. Represent War Orders. Much of the gold received from Vngland represents shipments from South Africa to London, while the French and other consignments hark back to the days of the war and in some instances to much lonarer periods. For example. Sweden is sending gold received rrom Germany for war npplies? also hay gold or bullion w r.ch many believe to be of Russian origin.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

Joseph P. Griffin, president of the Chicago Board of Trade, told the Illinois senate on Wednesday that the enactment of the Lantz measures the first aiming ai the control of the board by the f-tate department of agriculture, and the second prohibiting all trading in futures would mean the wiping out of Chicago as the grain center of the world. Mr. Griffin asserted that "the Board of Trade ever has occupied an unenviable position between the producer and the consumer and it is impossible to satisfy both." In case the Chicaeo board went out ! of business, Mr. Griffin said that' "The center of the machinery for reg istering the grain prices of the world, probably would be moved to Liverpool, Paris or Berlin." The speaker said that the jnembers of the legislature "had been"misguided and misinformed by incompetent advisers, just as the committee on agriculture at Washing- j ton had been advised by lawyers and i 'paper' farmers who know little of the I actual practices of marketing." j County Agent Talks Wool Pool. ! County Agent Dolan is mailing cut! a little persuasive literature regarding the pooling of the now wool clip. In j 1;,s circular letter he What about ,he co, situation tM year? Is Indiana planning to pool .he j3921 woo cljp? What 1s Wavne .Countv Farm Bureau doing for the . , TItpsp sro millions that hav-P rnmr- ! up in the last week, and this letter is j be, sent ,Q ,n ordpr that j become acquainted with the wool j situation it 5s today. The Indiana federation has , ,, The Indiana federal ion has decided to pool this year's wool clip with thp J,-jhi er; at Columblls. mdiana counties are nndecide A few d about i pooling. They said that if they sold ht (home last year at clipping time they I would have received mor? per pound ' for their wool than they received ihroutrh the pool last winter. But let us ask those few counties this: V .i? the decline in wool caused by thp pool? Other farm products fell off in price, and there was no pool. For ihree years preceeding 1920 Illinois farmers pooled their wool and saved from 10 to 15 cents per pound. Tast yfar. true enough they gained nothing but averaging the four years they have 5-aved good money. Again, we ask. whnt caused the decline in wool la.-t year, was it the pooi. or simply the economic condition of the country? Selling Direct to Mills. (11 If you sell to the scalper tht wool passes through four middle-men before it finally reaches the mill. (2) Other states have been successful in pooling and will pool again this year. (3) The bigger the pool the more ; effective it will be in securing a fair price. (41 Pooling with the Ohio wool growers will cost the farmer about 4 He per pound: that is. 4V cents will cover the freight, handling charge, storage and commission; if the wool sells for 50 cents at the mill the grower gets 45 cents for his share. To Meet Saturday Afternoon. The county farm bureau has called a meeting of the wool growers to be held in the office of the county agent next Saturday afternoon at 1:30. The pooling problem will be threshed out at that time and a large attendance of our sheep owners is hoped for. It is worth while noting that more than one million pounds of pooled wools have been marketed within the past three weeks, also that the Ohio Dool comDleted sales totaling 3.000,000 pounds on Anril 13. the top price on which was 33 cents for half blood combing wools, but the bulk of all - LEE SELLS GOOD TIRES All Kinds and All Prices 8 S. 7th St. Open Evenings BUY 25 pounds Domino Granulated Sugar $2.00 6 cans 15c value Tomatoes 50 6 cans 15c value Peas 50 6 cans 15c value Hominy . -50 6 cans 15c value Pumpkin 50 15 bars P. and G.

-S fleeces sold at 23 to 26 cents, except for "delaines" which brought up to 33. Clothing wools sold mostly at 21 to 23 cents, these being the average average prices for wools from a dozen states. Cattla Numbers Cut Down. Not so many years ago when millions of cattle roamed the western plains we had almost as many head of cattle as inhabitants. Today there is but little more than one-half a beef animal per person. But the grade of cattle is much higher, and the average better weights since the long horns have practically disappeared. When the farm loan bureau again gets into action it will distribute new money into thousands of agricultural communities. This will help everyone, because it will liberate a lot of money now tied up in country bank loans for other community uses. CELEBRATED TENOR RETURNS TO U. S.
