The net assessed valuation of personal property in Wayne county is $89,245,449.53. There are estimated to be 9,140 taxable polls. Reduces Expenses The reduction in the road levy was made possible because the department does not plan to buy any new equipment during the next year. The plan is to put the entire amount raised onto the roads of the county, according to Superintendent Jones. Mr. Jones states that one of the biggest items aiding in the reduction of his levy was the installation of gravel loaders which has made possible great savings in time which has been turned into money. . He states that with plans that he is now working on it will probably be possible to reduce his levy next year by two cents. County Levy. If reductions had not been made by the road department this year the county tax levy would have been raised three cents, it is stated. The county levy is as follows: Levy on taxable property $ .20 Bonds or sinking fund 20 County roads 09 Total $ Levy on polls .32 .50 LEAVES FOR JAPAN DETROIT. Aug. 23 Charles B.

PRESIDENT OF BOARD OF TRADES DEFENDS GRAIN EXCHANGES AS NECESSARY TO TRADE

CHICAGO, Aug. 23. President Jo-1 seph P. Griffin of the Chicago board of trade today declared before the National Hay association that if all business institutions had been subjected to the same bitter attack as the grain exchanges, "the American industrial structure would have collapsed." "The grain trade has been in the heat of dramatic struggle Tor existence." he told the 1,500 shippers, jobbers, brokers and commission men. "The struggle began a year ago with world price deflation. There was no more reason for attacking the exchanges than the banking industry, or the railroads, or any other line of business. "But the grain trade is an easy target. If prices go down the producer is naturally disappointed. It is then that the agitator reaps a golden harvest by turning the-, farmer's disappointment into bitterness against established methods of marketing. The agitator makes extravagant promises. Frequently he thus obtains a seat in legislature or congress. Sometimes he becomes an officer of a new cureall for agricultural problems at a sub stantial personal income. Saved After Fight "No one unfamiliar with the grain trade can realize the unnecessary hardships and business disturbances to which it has been subjected. The wave of emotion engineered by uninformed, ambitious critics carried with it a number of proposed laws as destructive as anything ever offered in a law-making body. "Fortunately, when the state and federal law-makers and farmers themselves realized the grave dangers of such impractical legislation it was defeated. But this was only after pro-

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

Three ' different chats with three elevator men on Monday evening developed the fact that there was a difference of 10 cents per bushel in their range of prices. One man quoted number two wheat at $1; the second man said $1.05. and the third said: "We took in a little wheat today and paid $1.10 for it." The low spot was the Farmers' Equity Elevator at New Paris. John W. Noakes, the manager, was not present to answer our call, but the man who did reply gave us $1 as their bid price on the day. A few miles farther east at New Madison, F. J. Royer," manager of the elevator at that point, stated that they had bought wheat on Monday at $1.10. The Farmers' National Grain company, with elevators- at Boston. Kitchell, and Fountain City, and now operating the elevator of the Champion Flour Mill in Richmond, admitting cutting their bid price to $1.05 at the five points where they are now operating, in this section. Present low prices are not likely to draw grain out of store. Men who stored their wheat when much better prices ruled will hardly consider this a good time to sell. Many of the largest grain handlers In the country In fact there is an important element talk . ing much higher prices long before the next wheat crop is in sight. Coal Business Slow. New Madison reports the finest prospect for a banner corn crop in a long time, if frost holds off. The elevator at that point supplies the bulk of the coal for the town and country side but say that orders for fall and winter coal are not yet being placed, except in a limited way. Oldest Farm Bureau Member. Ohio is now claiming the honor of enrolling the oldest member of the farm bureau in America. This venerable old man is C. T. Templeton, of Lawrence county, who was 100 years old on June 17, 1921. He has both a son and a grand-son, who are members of the same county bureau. Hundred Bushel Corn Soil. Samples of the soil in all Ohio farm fields on which 100 bushels of corn per acre were grown in 1920 will be collected by the Ohio state university, this fall. The soil will be analyzed to ?ee in what it differs from ordinary farm soils in the different vicinities, and to learn if these soils have certain characteristics the other soils - lack. Ben Puterbaugh and A. Noggle, two Darke county farmers, were recently visited by Robert Dustman, soils specialist, who took samples from their 100-bushel fields. Club Live Stock at Greenville. Darke county is presenting the results of its greatest year in school children's club work at the Greenville fair this week. There are 23 calves, 48 Poland China hogs, 66 pigs in the fat pig contest; 28 pigs in the Chester White exhibit: also 88 Durocs and 104 Spotted Poland Hogs in the various show rings. In brief about 200 boys and girls are making an exhibit of 334 pigs and 23 calves, quite a stock show in itself. The club leaders and the county agent are alone aware of the amount of work this showing stands for. The Committee of 11. The president of the American Farm Bureau has now appointed a committee of eleven to be known as the National Dairy Marketing Committee. Each member of this new committee is a practical and important man in his line, many being officials of the var

traded and expensive Inquiries and statements by leading economists thai the present grain marketing system is the most economical food distributing machinery in the world. "Recently congress agreed upon tne so-called Gapper-Tincher bill. While it does not by far represent the wishes of the grain trade, it is less dangerous than measuers previously offered. Its effect remains to be seen. Secretary Wallace has pledged himself to 11 1 1 ... v .1 . . . I administer the law in a reasonaoie, constructive manner. Others May Follow "Is the fight on the grain trade the prelude to similar unjustified, disturbing attacks against other lines of commerce? Is the proposed grain pool, which would tie up billions of dollars worth of farmers' produce for five years, with no security by the high-sounding promises of grain pooling directors, to be followed by other such movements? "It is reasonable to presume that a few of these quixotic movements would kill Individual business initiative the thing that has built up the wealth and power of the nation. The entire industrial structure would be shaken. The dangers are deep-rooted. "American business is just turning the corner after a long period of de-j pression. ine aarK ciouas nave Deenj cleared from the Industrial horizon, sound judgment, co-operation of the right kind, less government in busi-' ness, and a curb on agitators who are j spreading false doctrines against established business institutions' will hasten the era of prosperity." Other speakers included H. A. Wheeler, former president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, who took as his subject, "Gov-j ernment in Business Insures High Taxes." ious state milk and co-operative creamery associations. The committee is to meet at an early date to organize and begin its investigations. The name of no Indiana man appears on the list. The Ohio Seed Improvement association is to become affiliated with the Ohio Farm Bureau and later there wi'J be the appointment of a joint board for concerted action as to pure seeds. Collecting Annual Dues. Announcement is made from Chicago that twelve states have recently paid their national dues. Indiana is not included in this list, but it is understood that all the states will settle within the next six weeks. The representation at the annual convention is fixed on the basis of dues paid up to November 1. "Any state federation delinquent at that time could not be represented at. the Atlanta convention." Bernard M. Baruch has accepted the invitation of the farm bureau federation to appear before the congressional joint commission of agricultural inquiry to present an analysis of the farmers' credit and finance problems. Mr. Baruch has just returned from Germany where he devoted some attention to agricultural finance. He was formerly chairman of the war industries board. Fertilizer for Wheat. W. J. Hendrix. Darke County, Ohio, aaricultural agent, discourses on fertilizing wheat, as follows: "The price of fertilizer is not back to where farmers feel it should be. Many will be tempted to sow wheat without fertilizer this fall. We believe that if you cannot afford to fertilize, you cannot afford to sow wheat. We do not know whether the wheat crop next year will be profitable or not, but we do feel sure that it will not pay to grow it without using fertilizer. "What kind to use? We feel sure that the average Darke County farmer can not afford to use anything but acid phosphate. Mixed fertilizers are too high-priced to be used. You no doubt would be benefitted by more nitrogen, but you can go bankrupt try. ing to buy it in commercial fertilizer. Save your manure, and grow clover for nitrogen." Farm Sale Calendar Thursday.
