This is a much better way to utilize the plant than by pulling the fodder and leaving the standing stalks unutilized after the corn has been re moved in the field. Generally speaking, the reduction in yield yer acre in corn is about equivalent to the value of the fodder secured. From this it may be seen that the person who pulls fodder at the time which it is ordinarily pulled in North Carolina pays for the rough age secured in reduced yields of grain. All feeds are high, aiui in all probabil ity will remain hih during the com ing year. For this reason, it is im portant that the corn stover, Including tho shucks, stalks and leaves, shall be carefully dried and saved for feed ing purposes. It would be a wise plan for all corn growers in the State of North Carolina this year to cave not half of their crop, but all of it, by cutting the corn, curing the stalks and feeding them to their stock. in t he me period a year agD.

The corporation will make all allied purchases of wheat and flour and thus will stabilize prices to the allies. Thru the arrangement, too, it hopes to secure itself against any possible loss. The food administration will open agencies at all the principal wheat terminals, carrying on its transaction with the usual dealers. No commis sion charge will be made except " to cover costs of operation. The price to be paid for wheat will be fixed by a commission under the grain divis ion headed by President Garfield of Williams College. This price the food administration expects to see maintained hi pjcjvate as well as gov ernment transactions.
