We submit in this report a copy of the company’s cash grain account, clearly proving that the compafiy was always in step with the market during the period under review, therefore no loss in market specu- lation resulted On the contrary a considerable profit was realized. Profit Under 4 Cents « Bushel “In view of the fact that the Mid- land Grain company handled in ex- cess of 550,000 bushels of grain in the period under review, and since the company’s gross profit from wheat trading was definitely deter- mined to be $21,835.36, hence it fol- lows that an average of less than four cents tg! bushel gross profit was. realized on the grain handled and not over eight cents as alleged in the report compiled by the audi- tor for the state board of auditors. An exhibit showing the total wheat purchases is attached hereto. . _“The operating costs for the pe- riod under review, consisting of ad- ministrative and office salaries, of- fice rent, advertising, travel ex- penses, telephone and telegraph ex- pense, and other ordinary and nec- essary business expenses amounted to $20,239.19. This amount rep- resents the cost to the Midland Grain company of doing business. It is an outlay of expense on be- half of the millers and was taken out of the four cents per bushel margin allowed, After deductin the operating costs from the gross profit, the Midland Grain company realized less than one and one-half cents per bushel net profit on the grain sold to the North Dakota Mill and Elevator association and, in our opinion, this is not at all excessive. “In arriving at the foregoing computations we did not haphazard- ly examine just some of the records of the Midland Grain company, but made a thorough analysis of the profit and loss account and of the subsidiary records governing all of the operations during the period un- der review. The results shown are not based on arbitrary conclusioi but reflect our findings after m ing a detailed examination.” Wheat Purchases ed The exhibit detailing the cash wheat record of the Midland com- pany covers three closely typewrit- ten pages and lists the amount of wheat bought and sold, together with the dates of the transactions, the top closing price on the date in question together with the pre- vailing premium and the number of bushels which the company was “long” or “short” on the market. It discloses that the company was almost always “short” of the mar-| - ket from July 31, 1926, the first date listed in the exhibit, until De- cember 29, 1926. From that date until June 30, 1927, the last date listed in the exhibit, the company was consistently “long’’ on the market. / The index of the prevailing pre- mium, as contained in the exhibit, shows that it was 19 cents on the first date listed but declined in the succeeding five months, reaching a low point of six cents on Decem- ber 30, 1926. From that “date for- ward it rose steadily, reaching a maximum of 21 cents on June 30, 1927, the last date of the period under examination.

The cost of com- mon labor is placed at 47% cents an hour and the cost of skilled labor runs as high as $1.37% cents an hour for peers and bricklayers. A schedule of material values is contained in the report. The replacement value of the mill buildings is placed by the seport at $1,402,015.80 and the current or net sound valu® at $1,329,853.46.
