The condition in North Dakota continues about th me. A small fraction of the acreage intended for oats had not yet been planted the of June. Spring wheat condition conntinues about average. Seeding of spring wheat was continued unusually late for North Dakota this season, and the final acreage, though below that of a year ago, particularly — in the northwest, will, for the state, show as great a de- rlier, continues C intended for barley rapidly being seeded, and will probably exceed that of a’ year ago. The condition of all hay crops and pasture is good to excellent, though rather slow of growth. Warm. er temperatures of the last few days are hastening them along, however.

TRADE BOARD I$ ASSAILED Abolition of Chicago, Board of Trade Urged as Means of Farm Relief Chicago, June 21.—@)—-L. Gough of Amarillo, Texas, president of the Texas Wheat Growers’ association and a former judge, speaking today at the American Institute of Cooper- ation, assailed the Chicago Board of Trade as having the grain, farmer absolutely at its mercy. * “It is the height of folly to talk about farm relief and not eliminate the cause,” he said, “The Chicago Board of Trade the dominant exchange and has ab-! solute power to fix the price of every bushel of wheat. Five men on that board determine what the farmer is to get for his grain. Under the law they are nameless and are known | by numbers only, And T'll admit | they ought to have numbers. “Farming will never be profitable until there is a change of the sys- tem and the farmer can control the flow and price and distribution of his products the same ag other in- dustries.” Abolition of the Chicago Board of would be a means to that end, id, and the step could be taken by cooperation.
