Hundred Million Bolster
Wavering Wheat Market
Federal Farm Board Comes to Aid of the Unstable Wheat
Market Orderly Handling Will Result
Saturday at Chicago the Federal Farm Board placed at
the disposal of the Co-operative Grain Marketing associa-
tions the immense sum of $100000000 for the purpose of
stabilizing a fluctuating and ruinous market
This'action of the newly created Federal Farm Board is
expected to provide the first practical test of the power of
the farm remedial legislation to help grain producers This
movement of the board puts into effect the declaration of
Alexander Legge its chairman at the time of organization
who said:
"The federal farm board be-0
ht ha on Irnown world I atiVell can make to their members
lieves that based on known world
supply the present prevailing
prices for wheat are too low The
koard believes that this unsatisfac-
tory price level is chiefly due to
the rapid or disorderly movement
which is putting a large part iof
the year's wheat supply on the
market within a short time
"The unprecedented liquidation
of industrial stocks and shrinkage
In values within the last few days
has also had an effect on wheat
values which is entirely unwar-
ranted and wheat producers should
not be forced to sell on a market
affected by these conditoins
"The board also believes that the
remedy lies in more orderly mar-
keting In order to assist wheat
farmers to hold back their crop
and at the same time have money
with which to pay their obliga-
tions the board proposes to loan
wheat cooperatives qualified as
borrowers under the Capper-Volstead
act sums sufficient to bring
the total amount borrowed from
all sources by such associations to
the amount shown on the attached
schedule These loans will be car-
ried on this basis until the close
of the marketing season The
wheat' cooperatives are now bor-
rowing certain sums for advances
to members - from 'commercial
banks the federal intermediate
credit banks and the farm board'
The board will make supplemental
it loans to coopetatives' in amount
equal to the following price sched-
ule taking into account the cus-1
tomary differentials: 1

bushel basil Seattle
No 1 Norther $125 per bushel

"This schedule is based on a

try the board' believes that the

STATION' V-A-D-A
Advertised merchandise costs
less than that which is not adver-
y for Quality
The uppodite statement is so of-
ten made by unthinking minds
that we want you to be able to
combat this thought successfully
Advertising helps you in your
)
"bread and butter" problems and
the erroneous idea that advertised
merchandise costs more is very
frequently advanced
An advertised product that has
nation-wide distribution Is by far
better than an unadvertised brand
for you to handle because nation-
wide distributed brands advertised
locally have a much quicker turn-
over—you sell more with the same
overhead expense—so cost of sell-
ing on each package is less Your
rent light power clerk hire etc
remain the same whether your
stock Is turned over once twice
or four times a year
Hence any factor that will in-
crease turn-over and that means
profit is a mighty big asset—
newspaper advertising does this

Mother: If you get a job in the
chorus I hope you won't wear

Daughter: "Oh but they don't !
wear them any more"
Mother: "Well I'm very much
under this loan plan will almost
if not quite equal the amounts
which are being paid by the specu-
lators and others on actual pur-
chases from farmers
"There is a grain cooperative in
every state It is open to the mem-
bership of every wheat farmer
The farmer may join ship his
wheat to a designated concentra-
tion point where it will be graded
and cleansed and draw his ad-
vance The cooperative will mar-
ket the wheat in orderly fashion
through the year and will settle
with the farmer on the basis of
the final price obtained
"The board is confident that
considering the soundness of un-
derlying conditions which affect
the price of wheat the plan de-
scribed above furnished a com-
pletely safe basis for making loans
from the board's revolving fund
The board places no limit on the
amount of government money to
be so loaned Nearly $100000-
000 is available for the purpose
and if necessary the board will
also ask congress to appropriate
more"

ship of the 1929-30 Community

pect of his co-workers

HAYMAKERS IN SHAPE
The Haymakers will be in the
best shape of the season for the
Oklahoma City Goldbugs Captain
Locke and Coach Toby Green said
Monday
Green said the Haymakers had
to take their bumps in the first
Tulsa university game to find their
feet He declared it has brought
a spirit the team did not have be
fore and that the boys are going
after everything and fighting ev-
ery inch of the way
"We got an even break with
the Golden Hurricane crew 'Sat-
urday but we should have won
Some of our fellows were still
stiff from the fray with the O B
U Bisons but they'll be all right
after this
"We are stronger at some posi-
tions than last year but our real
strength is in our reserve forces
We have some of the gamest fel-
lows in the game and I'm confident
of success against the Goldbuge
The Haymakers lost one or two
stars last year but they had re-
serve strength not possessed by
any other team in the conference
These players have come through
in fine shape and the Haymakers
are a real threat to any team
McAnerney is without a super-
ior at fullback He had not been
going at his best until the O B
U game when he struck his stride
The Haymakers are strong in the
backfield and have a wealth of
material for any position
Sark at tackle is a man who
stands out in state football He
is fast and knows the game Locke
who is captain of the team also
is showing something in the way
of improved play

The plan is one of seryice to all
