GRAIN PRICES (Markets by Lamson Bros. & Co., 212 Union National Bank Building.) CHICAGO, 111., Dec. 13. All deliveries of grains, with the exception of December oats went into high ground on the crop and maintain the bulk of theadvance at the close. Heavy profit taking developed at times, but the selling was absorbed. An increase in speculative buying power being an Important factor. Bullish conditions in connection with the entire list are be coming more intensified and the situa tion later promises to become acute. In this connection B. W. Snow issued an exhausted report on the world's wheat situation which concluded as follows: With world wheat stocks ' showing a consistent and steady decline during the last four years, despite generally good crops to the four great producing countries a serious Australian crop defect this year and a disquiting early prospect for the next United States crop, the question of world bread assumes an importance that is both political and economics. We might add that the trade should not be mislead by apparently indifferent European cables, as their failure to reflect our advances Is practically off-set by the continued enchanment in sterling exchange.

The Farm and By William R.

THE TIGER TALKS "I am the son of a farmer; I am the grandson of a farmer; I am a dirt farmer. But when I came to this country I came without thinking of the farmers. I came simply to claim justice for all, so as to bring to an end the crisis that is prevailing now throughout Europe, and, because o! Europe, throughout the world." Thus spoke the Tiger of France in the Tiger room of the Sherman hotel before the fourth annual convention of the American Farm Bureau at Chicago, on Monday forenoon at the opening session. The aged veteran stood on a platform between two great growling tigers, portrayed as a background on the wall. His own personality completed the picture. He stood out as a peacemaker between the warring countries the tigers represented in the mural decorations at his back, a grand and yet pathetic old man, laden with the cares of his unhappy country. Sixty per cent of the people of France are farmers, eaid Georges Clemenceau. .He described, these farmers and related th important part they ace playing in the restoration of peace and in the rebuilding and stabilizing of the nation. "These farmers are very slow and silent men," ho said. "You see, the French have the reputation of belDg such talkers If you go. to see the French peasant you will understand that he is quite silent. He works too much. . If you saw him you would understand why the French people cannot be destroyed." Are Living in Dens. In his reference to the work of rebuilding, he said: France is rebuilding its factories and the French farmers are trying to come back. If you go there now you will see nothing of what is destroyed. No house. You won't see houses. Our farm people are living in sort of dens, with their cattle. M. Clemenceau says that France needs America's wheat, and would sooner buy from us than from anywhere else. "But France is eating poor bread because she hasn't the mony to buy the wheat she needs." In concluding he said: "I am going home. I have no mission, except a mission from my own conscience, and thatwas enough to bring me here." He left Chicago at 2:55 on Monday afternoon for New York, to take the steamer for France on Wednesday afternoon. In his address before the American farm bureau convention, Bernard Baruch, of New York, discussed the solution of the Rural Credits problem. He said: "There is nothing in the; world that affects your credit so much as the shrinking of foreign markets for your products. There is nothin: to which you can give your attention that is of greater moment to you in a practical way than the creation of international relations that are precedent to the re-establishment of those markets." Credit Legislation In his comment on the prospects and effects of forthcoming, credit, legislation at Washington, Charles Michaels, market editor of the Chicago Tribune, says: "All indications point to speedy enactment of legislation for assisting the farmers in this country and consumers abroad through the extension of credits. The Gould plan for exporting our surplus, calling for a fund of $230,000,000, with maturities of six to nine months .attracted great attention. Barney Baruch of the credit extension movement, in an address at the Farm Bureau federation here yesterday, said that had the credit plan been existant early this season grains would not have sold as low as they did and prices now would be much higher. The farm bloc has a great deal of power and is regarded as strong enough to pass all the credit bills, as the Harding administration is with them." ' The recent advance in the price of all grains has been largely influenced by the prospective later demand, and notably because of impending legisla- j lion to give credit to foreign buyers through governmental agencies. One j Board of Trade man asks: "If grain prices advance Sc to 5c on suggestions of giving foreign buyers a credit of $SO,000,000. how much will they ad-j vance with a credit of $250,000,000. as provided by bills now in congress?" When Chicago hogs reached an average of $S.35 and made a top of $8.55, on Monday, they scored the highest p.verage price in a month. At the same time lambs reached the highest figures since May and made a top of $15.60 with a general average of $14.65 on the day's sales. Bide Accomplishments After commenting on the farmer's income and the prices he has been receiving of late, the editor of the New York Evening Post asks the city worker to put himself in the farmer's place. Referring to Iowa farmers and asking Ihe reader to consider himself one of them, he continues: "Suppose that, noticing the station agent's new car, you found that railway wages were averaging about 188 per cent of pre-war level and freight rates 150 per cent, while New York factory workers were getting 200 per cent. Suppose you learned, in looking over the mail order catalogues, that the general cost of living is 160 per cent of the prewar cost. Suppose that your winter order of coal cost you 230 per cent as much as in 1913. Suppose, in short, that you concluded that you had toiled all "year without making more than a bare living, .while all other groups in the nation were growing more prosperous; that yen saw your-

Copyright 1922. the Farmer Sanborn self a sort of helot kept usy 14 hours j a day on a pittance to raise food for! uroan workers who keeD busv 8 hours a aay and then go to the theatre. If &mitn w. Brookhart came along assuring you that something is radically wrong with the present order and that it is time to enlist with progressivism against reaction, would you smile incredulously and go 'vote for a standpatter?" Have Political Sense. , After stating that "Nowhere this year has a third party movement cropped out, the farmers being content to nominate the more radical Republicans," the editor says that the farmer of today is far better educated than he was a generation .ago, and can not be so easily misled. He knows that the chief dependence for relief must not be upon politics, but upon the farmer's own organizing ability." He concludes by summarizing the work of the farm bloc, stating that the last congress "passed a law to encourage farmers' co-operative associations; it enlarged the capital of the farm loan banks; it brought the packers Tinder government supervision; gave the department of agriculture power to check improper grain speculation, and it contained a gen erous road building program. Farm ers are likely to support congressmen wno are engaged in such efforts Showed Grade Cows. In a discussion of the dairv interests and the showing of grade cows at the National Dairy show this year, Frank O. Lowden. president of the National Holstein-Friesian association stated that this great show had performed its greatest service in 1922 "For the first timt." he said, -"the show has shown grade cows. Heretofore the grade cows have been barred while the show was for purebred. Grade cows are less expensive and have pure-bred blood and in a way they show the value of pure blood better than do the pure-bred cows, since they demonstrate how beneficial is grading of herds. "In the demonstration of the capabilities of the grade cow, I believe the National Dairy Exposition is doing a splendid service for the agriculturist." Causes of Corn Rots The severity of th" root, stalk anl ear rots of corn, widely distributed diseases in the corn bell, can be greatly reduced by a proper balancing of fertilizer, so the department of agriculture now claims. This conclusion is the result ' numerous experiments made in co-operation with several state experiment stat'ons It had not been thought that corn was particu larly sensitive to the balance of vari ous elements in the "soil, but it is now believed that these rots are largely caused by conditions of the soil, as well as by those of climate. Reducing the losses from these rots fs a complex problem, requiring much more investigation and experiment. It involves a careful consideration of en vironment, soil fertility and the na ture of the particular strain of corn. Wyoming farmers are hoping jto secure a grasshopper law, similar to that effective In North and South Dakota. A number of Wyoming districts were seriously ravaged by grasshoppers this yfar, which attacked, alfalfa and other important crops causing heavy loss. The cost and trouble of incessant poisoning is a heavy burden on the farmer, hence the call for a stats law providing for state aid. In the Dakotas, a petition signed by ten per cent of the farmers in any district insures a tax levy under charge of the county commissioners, the money being set aside as a fund for fighting the pest. The department of agriculture has promised to do what it can to aid Wyoming farmers in 1923. Junior Poultrymen. Nearly 2,000 boys and girls were members of the Massachusetts Junior Poultry club this year, and under the instruction of the college extension department many of them made fins j records. Twenty club members mads over $100 each and 46 made record of more than 100 eggs per ben for the seven months of the working season. The hens kept by the poultry club champion of the state had an egg production for the seven months of 114 eggs per hen, and his 100 hens, after figuring feeding costs and paying himself 20 cents per hour for his orking time, netted him $437. It is estimated that the poultry industry of this state is worth $10,000,000, and that the value of the annual production equals two fifths of that of the dairy industry in Massachusetts.
