NOTICE TO CREDITORS Chicago Fears Loss of Its Live Stock Shipments Rate Increase Is Seen as a Benefit to Omaha Ruling Based on Data of 1928. Chicago, 111., July 2 4. The boost of approximately 10 per cent in rail road live stock shipping rates, effec tive October 27, announced by the interstate commerce commission in Washington Monday, is expected to seriously affect the transportation of farm animals from middle west and western states into Chicago's stock yards. This was the tenor of an opin ion given out today by O. W. Sand berg, transportation expert of the American Farm Bureau federation, following a study of the commission's ruling. "The commission endeavored to make a uniform rate basis," declared Sandberg, "but the attempt is a bad blow to agriculture and the live stock industry in particular." On Data of 1928. The ruling is based on data ob tained by the commission in 1928, and is the result of rate adjustments requested by railroads over six years ago, he said. When the hearings were in prog ress the live stock industry had not suffered the blow dealt to the na tion's meat animal producers the last 18 months or so, he asserted. In order to make a uniform ship ping charge based on mileage for all areas west of Chicago, the com mission is said to have raised the rates 10 per cent between the Mis sissippi river and the Rockies, and lowered them over 6 pel cent in Texas and the southwest area. Go to Other Markets. Farmers in the area between 60 and three hundred miles shipping distance from Chicago are also affect ed by the increase, the federation's analysis shows. Iowa supplies 51 per cent of the hogs shipped to Chi cago, while Illinois, Wisconsin and Missouri supply 77 per cent of the total cattle receipts here. Iowa, Wis consin, Minnesota and Illinois sup ply 93 per cent of the hogs shipped to Chicago's stockyards. If railroads accept the authorized Increase in October, Sandberg, to gether with C. A. Stewart of the Na tional Live Stock Marketing associa tion, predict a decided increase in the amount of live stock shipped in to Chicago by trucks, or more of the present Chicago business going to St. Louis, Kansas City, Omaha, St. Paul, Indianapolis or other mar kets.

The farmers of this vicinity as well as all of Cass county and it is reported other portions of the coun try, have a disposition to bin their wheat rather than to put it on the market, the threshing returns have been very satisfactory as to yield and quality, all testing up well, and the yield being heavy. Reports from the yield of August Johnson showed 30 bushels the acre, while E. H. Armstrong made 35 and Leo Peters 30, with others along the line, some even more but not many less than 22 which makes the crop very satis factory and should the price advance a little it would be very pleasing.
