Show THE 1919 WHEAT GUARANTEE Recently many farmers nave asked the County Agent, ?Ta the Government guaranteed price for the 1919 wheat If all have goiug to hold good? checked on the papers recently, you have noticed considerable opposition to the wheat guarantee that the Government gave the farmers for the 1919 wheat crop. 1 his opposition is largely omlng Iron, the peculators, Lut partly from the consumers. During the war the price of the farmers wheat was regulated by the Government, and the consumers got their bread at a email advancement over the price during normal times. The farmer took chances on crop failure, high priced S-0-- Goodies! the kind that . in your mouth light, fluffy, tender8 cakes, biscuits and doughnuts that just keep you hanging 'round the pantry-- all made tvith machinery, high cost of labor, etc. Had the wheat grower been allowed to profit in keeping with that made by other big business as listed below, the 1919 wheat guarantee would not be justifiable. It was found in Box Elder county, and other counties, th.t some pieces of machinery last year over the year before advanced ovefr 47 per cent In price. The following figures, showing per cent on capital stock for the 1917 profits, were submiited to the committee on Inter-Statand Foreign '.xmiii erce of the House of Representatives pt Washington, D.

LISTEN TO THESE EACTS: Our first two deliveries of FORDSON TRACTORS made last August 1918 to Frank Peck and A. L. McFadden of Fielding plowed SEVEN HUNDRED acres in SEVENTY-FIVdays lapse time. They received for the wjork from the Sugar Company $3000.00. These two tractors with plows cost $2200.00. You do not have to figure to see that $800.00 is left after paying for both outfits. Now pay $420.00 for oils and fuel, $350.00 for labor of two drivers and you still have $50.00 which just paid for all repairs such as cleaning carbon, grinding valves, etc. Examination of these machines after completing the work shows them to be in first class condition.

And now this year we are being asked to send Europe 20,000,000 tons of food instead of 6,000,000 tons, as has been our custom. Where will the wheat surplus be when the 1919 crci is ready to use? It is said that large supplies are being sent from Australia and orbei sources, Australia being the one nur-- t emphasized, probably. What ibnit it? The actual area under culuva tion in this immense country Is less than half of the State of Kansas.
