DAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1925 FINAL EDITION PRICE FIVE CE | GERALD CHAPMAN’S FEDERAL TERM COMMUTED ~ STATE MILL WILL BE HELP TO ALL OTHERS Is Not Competing With Pri- vately Owned Mills, Gov« ernor Sorlie Contends URGES THEIR SUPPORT North Dakota Wheat Should All Be Made Into Flour Within State, He Says Contending that the state mill and elevator at Grand Forks Gs not in competition with priv: owned mills in the state but will eventually be a help to them, Gov. A. G. Sorlie today issued a plea for state-wide Support for the Grand Forks project. he state mill and elevator, he said, came into being for the same reason that the hundreds of farmers’ elevators throughout the state were organized, to meet the needs of the + people. In many communiti: the governor said, farmers’ elevators brought profit to the producers even though their own books showed losses because of the fact that linc clevators were forced to raise their prices to get the grain. This in- crease, the statement said, was ap- proximately six cents per vusne! more than they had paid before com- petition entered the field. Paid More For Flour Here Until the state mill and elevator the exceutive said, North Dakota “people we y mimufactured this stern states were for the same flour. The reason, he said, was that they were forced to meet a more ‘ket in the east and more for:their flour at home in order to make a profit vr even to break even. “In other words the buyers in the rast were better than This fact, he ‘said, applied tom in the Twin Cities and elsewhere in the Northwest as well as to those in North Dakota. Although flour sold for $1.80 a h re] less in December, + than in’ December, «the state mill and elevator was able to ssmake a profit of approx 000 in September and : bere the governor A privately op ous in 1921 de bite, the higher price wthen — prevaili ason, he “said, tha the east came into our territory and estab- lished the price on our flour.” Output Sold In Four States The state mill and elevator, he said, now is selling all its output in North and South Dakota, Minnesota bee: ‘the people ate the supe- of our flour and we do not have to go into the eastern mar- kets to dispose of our entire outpu Pointing out that all mills in the e are milling 100 per cent hard spring wheat, the governor stated that when the state mill, operated as a state laboratory, “has succeed- ed in creating a demand for high-grade flour the other mills in the state will profit by it. It is for this reason that the privately owned Ils in the state should cooperate with the state mill and elevator in order to take advantage of the supe- rior product we have here in the Northwest. Our hard wheat, high ‘in protein content, produces a supe- rior article and ‘it,is the function of the state mill, operating as a labo- ratory for all the mills of the state, to help the producers receive their fair compensation for that superior article. Not In Competition “The State Mill can only grind a small percentage of the wheat raise in North Dakota. Because of t fact the State Mill is not in competi- ytion with the other mills of the state. It is a laboratory for these other mills to help them manufac- ture and sell a superior quality of flour. “By Cooperating with the State Mill the smaller mills in the state should be able to operate every day at a profit, instead of selling flour to eastern buyers at a loss. I hope all the mills in the state will have printed on their flour sacks these words: ‘Made from 100 per cent North Dakota hard spring wheat; not blended or mixed in any way with winter or soft wh By co-oper- ating in this the smaller mills in the state will help the State Laboratory s+ sell our superior grade of protein ‘wheat manufactured into the best grade of flour. “When we manufacture all our wheat into flour in our own state 4 the by-products, such as bran, shorts and middlings, which consists of about 25 per cent of the wheat, can be left right here in our state to be used in bringing about a healthy di- Nereification of farming. When bran, shorts and middlings can be bought here at home at reasonable prices, our farmers will be far more interested in raising cattle and hogs “then they are now. whem they are compelled to buy feed that is ship- pee sage. the state from other mar- Rulings of the _ State Rail Board The state railroad board has ap- proved sn application by the state hignwaye commisgion for permission » “to eliminate a grade crossing of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad in Adams county.
