The rally came belatedly after a ixed opening, but gained force as the mi were snapped up as buyers sought | 5 “oversold” issues. Traders appeared heartened by con- | crete proposals for business revival set forth by industrial executives at the annual convention of the Na-/ tional Association of Manufacturers. Wall Street had apparently made up its mind chances for freight rate in- creases had improved. Farm implement shares were stim- ulated by reports agriculturists were stocking up against next year's needs. Chain store sales in the middlewest reflected increased buying power in the rural sections. Bonds were higher. Commodities, efter a mixed start, pointed higher. Foreign markets were irregular. 8O.

Suggestions that and France might enter the market for United States lower grade wheats ow- ing to partial failure of the Argentine crop acted as a decided stimulus for late upturns of the Chicago market. December wheat contracts here de- veloped the greatest relative stretch, and rose to more than 3 cents premium over May, the biggest premium so far this season. At the close, Chicago wheat futures finish, Dec. 97%-%, May 94%-%4, corn unchanged to % higher, Dee, 54%- St, page 57%-%, and oats unchanged to up. RULLISH NEW! Minneapolis, Dec, (P)—A flood of bullish news during the last half | of Wednesday's session sent wheat futures into higher territory today.

I believe after studying our problem that, in @ more or less de- fined way, the state should be since into three districts: the eastern par' |where there is plenty of rainfall Es successful farming, the western part where it probably should be con- sidered principally a range country and the central part which seems to me might be called an In-Between Country. I looked in the geography to see where the glaciers had been to see if that had any bearing~on our agricul- ture and believe that may be in- cluded in some measure in our rekon- ing. The Missouri and Ohio rivers bound @ great part of the southern terminus uf the glacial area. In soil topography and water supply, Jakes that are dwindling and underground water which is likely also receeding, we may find some factors in @ general ap- Preach to our problem. As an instance in the disappearance of lakes an acquaintance tells that many years ago they caught @ wagon- load of fish in two hours in Crooke Joke, now dry, near Turtle lake. It herly seems possible that in 40 oF 50 years we would notice changes at- tributable to lessening of glacial ef- fect but lake levels are lowering. The building of many dams which is now being carried out—and per- haps Missouri river diversion—may ccunteract this trend. A little more rainfali would mean much. Get the land back to grass does not seem altogether the logical solv- ing of our problem, and we couldnt get it back to grass for a good long time if we wanted to. If we did have it all to grass we would have a hari time to get feed enough for we wouldn't have straw, corn, millet, etc. ‘a help out. , it looks like we should rats: more stock, do more , raising a great deal of feed on our cultivared lands and find methods of success- fai proceedure to raise some acreage of paying cash crops.
