It was part of the platform of the present administration that an ex- orbitant profit was being made by mill- ers in North Dakota, and that they bled the farmers cn the one hand by paying less for grain than they should, and: bled the consumers on the other hand ‘by charging too much for flour. “So the state purchased the little flour mill’at’ Drake. ° “During the first year that the mill was operated by the state, it lost more than:$30,000 Which was more than the purchase: price of thé mill. It sold flour at a higher price than private millers charged for an equally good brand, and it paid less for wheat than millers paid for the. same grade. In add:tion, the state mill was ex- empt from taxes, and when the state purchased jt, it was out‘the amount that the mill would have paid in taxes if it had been privately owned. “If the claim was true that the pri- vate millers were paying too little for wheat and charging too much for flour, then the management of the state mll must have been unbelievab- ly inefficient. “Yet on the howing made at Drake, the present adm:nistrativn wants to proceed wih the erection of a state- owned mill many times as large at Grand Forks.

I’ve made weather for everybody all spring and summer, so surely everybody is supplied.
