Of Interest to Farmers, The Cottonwood Milling & Ele- vator Co. has been notified by the New York office of the Food Ad- ministration Grain Corporation that the time limit for selling seed grain for the State of Idaho is set for May 15th, and after that date no licensed dealer can sell any wheat or rye to the trade. If you are in need of any grain to put in your crop, you had better get busy, as absolutely no grain will be sold after that date. The pressing needs for export and domestic trade require the putting into market channels at once any surplus stocks of wheat, rye or other grain suitable for bread purposes and all farmers are advised to bring in any sur- plus they have on hand. The Cottonwood Milling Co. will be busy the full season grind- ing out the allotment of wheat, owing to the fact that they have} * been grinding wheat substitutes | in such large amounts as to re-| # duce the ability to take care of wheat flour trade. The hearty co-operation of all concerned is expected in the present crisis to keep the world supplied with the| “Staff of Life.” —_p—_—_- Red Cross News.
