■hows that in 1924 the farmer* av
eraged a profit of 21 cents a bub
al on wheat and:£B cents a bushel
on corn. Many lost money on ev
ery bushel, others made move than
-the average.
Farmers that raised potatoes on
the average actually lost money,
and would have been better off if
they hadn't planted a potato.
A good wheat speculator, know
ing that the prosperous class want
fid La Follette hadly beaten, and
was sure to put up the price of
wheat, could easily buy a million
bushels of wheut early in the cam
paign, and sell ii at a profit of one
million dollars.
It was a lucky farmer that could
raise five thousand bushels of
wheat and sell it at a profit of
one thousand dollars.

to speak well over the radio may

portance of national economies and
laying down, to the satisraction of
every hearer, the simple truth that
the people's monev belongs to the
PEOPLE.
