Aid For Farmer Part Of John W.

The idea of a natiouar corporation either Government controlled or the development of a co operative plnnto take enre "of the cxportjjjle sttirphts of Am iTlraii farm products may get into concrete lorm as a con -i'i(Ucnce of the discussion of agricultural needs during the Presidential campaign. I John \V. Davis' speech in Omaha amplifying the Dem ocratic national platform 011 the subject of an export com mission or corporation docs not reveal whether the nom inee is willing to endorse the McNary-Ilaugen bill which taused so much controversy at the last session of Con gress, but both Mr. Davis and Mr. LaFollette are declaring themselves for the principle of unified control of export; so as to eiuible the farmer to " jrct" brtter TiTfoes " tor "hts wares. Now tlinl it Is apparent that the farmer is getting higher returns, due to tin* favorable weather here as coni rasted with short produc tlon iii foreign countries. the din satisfaction of the farmer is to pome extent appeased but it does not prev? nt the candidate!* who are after tin' farm vote from pointing out what seem to them way a and means of getting even better price*. ? ? In oilier words, the debate ov er the method by which the ex portable surplus shall be handled has not ended. Mr. Davia in his Omaha speech did not take ex r actly the Mine ground that Gov ernor P.ryan of Nebraska did be fore he was a nominee for the Vice Presidency but he came close enough to indicate that the inilu ?v/' of the Nryan family which li?4tfCd write the idea Into the Democratic national platform is still dominant on agricultural questions and from now on the advice received from the Vice Presidential nominee may be seen running through the speeches of the Democratic nominee for the Presidency. Mr. Davis could not very well dismiss the Democratic platform's pronouncement for an export cor poration but If he were against the idea at heart he need not have dwelt on the subject in his Oma ha speech. He has come to the conclusion no doubt that the West is vitally Interested In ? in ? ex|?orl problem and that he Is expected to say something definite as to his policy on this matter* Governor Ilryan came out for the McNary-Haugen bill or "something like It" before the Madison Square Garden conven tion. Critics of the McNary-Hau gen bill have been demolishing that proposal but they have not always offered an alternative. The West does .not want an alterna tive. Mr. 1-aKollette has not ex plained in detail his solution. Mr. Davis has gone further than Pres ident Coolldge. but to get up real Interest on the Issue he will have to give a bill of specifications as to how the export corporation will actually function. President Coolldge has said , that be wants an Inquiry begun I to determine the best kind of an organization to set up. He prob ably will appoint such a hoard before the campaign Is over. Ite _ fori* that body will come many schemes no doubt for agricultural relief. Mr. Davis ban said thai Congress began investigating 'A years ago but has taken no action. During the last session of Con gress. all korts of proposals were made but no action was taken. 1*111 after bill either was defeated or side tracked in the legislative Jam. The chance of arousing the West on agricultural questions j ow lies wholly In the kind of so lution proposed by each candidate should there be a recurrence of conditions which In the last two years have wrought the Brook hart*, Norrlses. Magnus John sona and other western radical to tie- height of their power. The simple rise In farm prices may hold many votes in line nOw but they will not still the cry after flection for something definite to idtf k' t the farmer's crop. 11 y the time John W. Davis gets through with the West he may discover that a detailed agricul tural program Is de'slred and soim pledge'thal It will be carried Into effect. Ix>w freight rates tskes In one phase of the problem of de creased costs and sn export cor poration looks to the establlsh ment of s plan that will enable the domestic price of wheat to ns f<nd In conformity with a higher export price. These questions are of sufficient Importance to turn the (Ids In any campaign. Both the Democratic and independent nominees are scrstcblng the sur* j (ace.

Bringing Home The Bacon Will Cost More This Year l!otf Friers Up Sharply, unci I\1?*ut Situation for dom ing Yp?r Rather Kiirourapntr f?r Prixlucer*, W illi I'ouiidup' and lli^lur I'rirfh lly J. V. ROYIiK CC??Trljht 1*74 Bf Th? AIiirm) Now York.' Sept. 9.- -American* who are instructed to "bring home the bacon" during the re mainder of this year probably wiU have to dig deeper lnt?? their pockets for it than they did last I fall. Hog prices are up .sharply and this Is tnk? n as indirat lug that the record hreakinu receipt* of 1 f? 2 :5 and the first half of 1021 are at an end. Shipments to mar ket from no* until New Years are expected to In? much lighter than In 1 f ? 2 H . It was inevitable that the four record breaking crops from 1020 I to 15)23 inclusive would be re | fleeted in an enormous increase In J the output of pork since hogs fiir- 1 nlshcd the most pcyfltahb- method' for marketing corn. If has become evident, however, that hog pro duction has caught and passed corn production and the raising of hogs Is on the decrease. This be came apparent with the pig crop of last fall, which was about sev ,cn per cent <?nder that of the pre rc'dlrVK year. The report of the rural mail carrier survey showed the sprint; pig crop fell off about 20 per Cent. Since marketings for any year are limited ehb fly by the. size of the pig crops of the preCeedlng spring and Tall, the outlook for the next 12 months points to much smaller receipts at markets than have been shipped In the last 12 months. Some experts tlx this decrease as high as 20 per cent. With the corn crop showing ?'< decrease and the pig crop lower, the proportion of corn to hogs in the n<'\t annual period seemingly would be about the same as last year were It not for the amount of soft corn likely to result from late plantings and unfavorable weather durltm the growing sea son. i Soft corn does not pill fat. on hogs like hard corn and there fore a very considerable reduction In the average weight of hogs marketed would not be surpris ing. Higher prices are forecast for pork by meat expert* but they are hot so certain, they say. that this will result in n higher gross Income from the sale of hogs. One expert estimates gross re ceipts for hogs "from July 1024 to July 102S at $*75,000,000. The receipts for the year ending July 1024 were $#fiO,OflPO.OOO or an In crease of two per cent to the farmer. When It eomos to cattle and sheep and the prices which must be paid for the sirloin steak and Hit* succulent lamb chop, many of I H?? price factors arc conflict ing. Tliere Have been persistent minora that many herds from tliv range country will be forced on flu* market but this Ih not sup ported by Oovornment flKiirrs on It vent or k population on the ranch en or bv aasessora' report! and dipping records. Severe drought lias affected some Western rann' -' and the certainty of high feed prices m \l winter may cause li quidation from these areas. In other sections, pasture con ditions ar?? very favorable and Toxaa in well stocked with young Ht ii it, M'.it men, hdwnvcr, ex press tin- belief about tin- name number of cattle will arrive at stork yards In thr* next year as in the last. Th?* amount of soft corn may enrourage feeding this full hut the advance In grain prices nnd bnrrpuncw of some range* will probably reduce thr demand for storkrrs and feeders which In turn will make Finallcr the nu in ht r of well fattened cat 1TTT Thr natural reflection from this would be higher prices for choice cuts and the higher pTleis and smaller supplies of pork would tend to increase thr demand for the eomtiionrr grades. Thrrr is no threat of overproduction In the sheep Industry although high lamb prices have prevailed since 1f?22. Hut fully as many lambs may bo expected on t l??t# market In thr next 12 months as wer* rrcelvt'd in I'm past year. Tliere, Is an artiv demand for breeding stock developing among corn belt farmers and this will tend to ben cflt. Western sheep men with a surplu* of ewe*. In general. It. is thr conclusion that the meat situation for thr coming year will br moderately encouraging for thr product rs but thf reduced poundage marketed and the higher level of prie s may be expected to have an e#|iially strong effect on the consumers' pocket book but In thr opposite di rection.

To the men who play polo most of tin- year round, the cost of the game has been es timated as high as $f>0,000 a year ft Is small wonder that Mrs. Morgan Hclmont, daughter-in-law of August Belmont, has decided to go to work In a department store this winter so that her husband, who loves polo abovi- most every thing e|*c in th?< world, can con tinue to ploy the game.
