Figures on Wheat The March 1 report of the depart- ment of agriculture showed 111,000,- 00 bushels of wheat on farms and 69,000,000 bushels in elevators. Since the agitation in congress to increase the price of wheat to $2.50, receipts at mills have dwindled from 8,000,000 bushels to 3,000,000 bushels a week. Use of potatoes as a substitute for wheat, which has been urged by the food administration, will not be pos- sible in some sections because of traffic congestion. The administra- tion has abandoned the idea of a na- tion-wide educational campaign for that reason and will depend on state administrators to stimulate consump- tion in those states where potatoes are being delivered by the railroads.
