RECORD MUST BE KEPT OF FOOD IN TRANSIT TODAY [AN Firms Having Commercial Stocks in North Dakota Shall Make Returns All firms having commercial stocks of foods are required today to make returns to the bureau of markets, de- partment of agriculture, at Washing- ton showing what they have on hand’ or in transit on this date. Llank food survey schedules in this state may be obtained from the office of the field agent of marketing at the state agri- cultural college. © Each blank has spaces for recording stocks of 18 principal commodities, including the chief cereal foods, meats, lard, oils, fish, sugar and condensed or evapor- ated milk. Elevators, mills, dealers, canners, bakers, confectioners, manu- facture: jobbers, packers grocers, hotels, department and general stores dealing in groceries and other types of business to the numer of about 109 are required to report their stocks not later than September 10, though an extension of time may be granted by the secretary of agriculture on special request, if a good reason can be shown, Survey is Preliminary. The survey being made today inso- far as it concerns the supplies of 18 principal foodstuffs is a preliminary one, to be followed by a more com- plete one after the crops are harvest- ed. Foy the complete schedule the blanks call for returns on 103 items Blanks giving all information have been mailed to 350,000 firms, but any tirm which has not yet received these blanks is urged to apply at once to the bureau of markets, department of agriculture, Washington, or to tho field agent of marketing at the North Dakota agricultural college. While the returns are required by law, with a heavy penalty for noncompliane., it is expected by the department that all firms will consider making these re- ports a patriotic duty. NORTH DAKOTA GHAIN 10 MOVE (Continued from Page One.) the governor that a price of $2.25 was to be expected. “It will mean $2 wheat at North Dakota elevators,” said the governor. “It prodvably will net the farmer with a good crop a fair return, but the farmer in the western part of the state, where the crop is poor, will not break even.” Kepresentative farmers, even in the Red river valley, where the crop is proportionately heavy, declare wheat. cannot 'be marketed, at a profit around $2. If the valley cannot pay expenses at $2, it means a very real loss to the farmer of the-Slope, whose yields are much smaller and whose expense for labor has been greater. The effect of the government’s price-fixing has been to beat down the market, a result which thé Nonparti- san league managers probably did not anticipate when they asked the gov- ernment to take over the handling o1 the wheat crop. Even under depress: ing conditions a price of $2.35 to $2.40 prevailed for cash wheat in Minneap olis yesterday. The Thirty-Day Clause. According to a message received by Governor Frazier last night from ‘Rep John M. Baer, Julius C, Barnes of New York is the man with whom the enforcement of Hoover’s regulation requiring the movement of wheat rom storage within thirty days rests. “He has arranged so that the title does not pass at the end of thirty days if proven that the grain ig not held to enhance the price,” Congress- man Baer advises. Whether this improves the situation much the railway commission, which took the initiative in this matter, was not today in a position to determine. There is a question as to how the government or any other agency is to ascertain whether wheat is held with a view to enhancing the price or because *he farmer desires to use it next spring for seed. If the price es- tablished py the government is a wax imuni, as the law would seem to in- dicate, it is difficult to understand how the farmer can hope to enhance the price to be received by holding his grain. If the purpose of this pro- vision is to force grain to market in such quantities that it will depress the price below the maximum estab- lished by the government, the clause will work to benefit the commission men and possibly the consumer, but very much to the detriment of the | What Young Says. “The provision is only one of the links of a gigantic chain of powerful governments and grain-dealers basded together for the purpose of not only destroying all competition in wheat, but requiring the farmers to sell whether they desire to do so or not at prices arbitrarily fixed. for them,” Representative George M. Young wired the governor last night. DECISION LAST NIGHT, Washingion, D. ¢., ug. 31.—A price of $2.20 a bushel was fixed for the 1917 crop of wheat by President Wil son last night on the recommendation of the wheat price committee headed The basis will 1 northern spring wheat de- cago. tee finally agreed late yesterday ternoon after several days of voting.

The price fixed {s 20 cents higher’ than the minimum named for the 1918 crop. by congress in the food control bill. The $2 price set was taken into’ consideration by the committee in considering a fair valuation of this year’s crop. In a statement accompanying the announcement of the-price, President, Wilson declares it is the hope of the food administration, and his own as well, that’ the fixing of a price will stabilize the market and keep prices within moderate bounds for all trans- actions during the current year. The ‘price of flour and bread, too, the president declares, will be' kept down, Will Controt Market. The committee in its report to the president gave as its three chief con- siderations that entered into its de- liberations the following: The fact’ that the United States is at war, the need of encouraging the producer, and the necessity of reduc- ing the cost of living to the consumer. Ail, members agreed in their discus: sions that the price fixed will permit of a 14-ounce loaf of bread for five cents, allowing a fair profit both to the flour manufacturer and the baker, Although the prices are fixed on government purchase only, the food administration, through its wheat cor. poration, recently Yorganized, expect to control the market without diffi- culty. The corporation will make all has under ‘consideration plans to buy for millers. If it serves as broker between the terminal and the flour inills, the corporation will become pur- chaser of virtually all of tie country’s, wheat crop. TEvERY COUNTY I NORTH DAKOTA 1S TEADY FOR CALL Sufficient Number of Men to Meet Original Call Certified to 52 : Boards “It is now..an assured fact that ev- ery county:in North Dakota will be in position’ ‘to. furnish its quota by Sept. 5, if any men are called at that time,” stated Judge Luther E. ‘Bird- zell, chairman of the state exemp- tiohi-board, last evening. *ePhe district board last night fin- ished certifying at least five per cent of the net quota to every county in tha jstate. To many counties more ‘than five per cent, and to a number Hposal were forwarded to the president More than 50° per cent of the net quotas have been certified ‘as accept- red by the district board. ‘©The board is proceeding as rapidly as possible with claims for exemp- tions on agricultural grounds, taking. ;them up by counties. To date it has considered no appeals frem local boards. In most instances the period allowed for the making of appeals has not expired. No appeals have yet been taken from the decision of the district board, Judge Birdzell states, and ‘he does not anticipate there will be. any. The exemptions of agricul- turists, principally owners or opera- tors of farms, and in many instances: registrants who likewise have fami- lies’ dependent on them, continue to run about 10 per cent of the number of claims.
