That tha boards of trad over tha
country are a necessity; that they In no
via Indura prohibitive, prlcet cf fond
stuff, and that they help market lirodurU
In tha moat economical manner Is the
defense offered by rresident Hyne of
the Omaha Grain Exchange In answer
rlatlon of Grocers' meeting at Chicago,
that boards of trada be suspendt-d as a
means of curtailing higher price of
atables.
H point In this behalf to the result
of tha investigation by the United State
bureau of Labor enumerated n Bulletin
'o. US, which declares that the grain
trade of tha frilled Hates Is tha most
competitive In character of any In the
world. '
"It la true." say Mr. Hynea, "that
thl country haa raised the largest wheat
crop in Its history, but It it also true
that foreign countries have raited less
than tha average and they must coma
to tha United Mate to mak up for tha
deficiency. When the war In Europe
became an established fact, ther was
quit an advance in the price of wheat,
many people arriving at the ronrlualon
that there would b a world-wide scarcity
of food products, and consumers both
large and small, Incneaard their pur
chases above normal quantity, all of
which had Its result in advancing tha
market.
Heavy Derllaa Fe-llawed.
"During tha last week there haa been
r decline of almost 10 cents per bushel
and today tha price Is only a few cents
away from an average price, and when
w consider the actual cost of produc
tion, the margin of profit to tha pro
ducer is very moderate. Indeed, and any
material decline would be disastrous to
tha farmer. W have already pointed
out tha very small margin on which
tha grain Is hauled from producer to
consumer, as evidenced by the Investiga
tion, of tha government, and wa give be
low the closing price at Chicago of
the various options on August 16, 1914,
compared with August 16, 1918;

"It will be seen." continued Mr. Hynea,
"from thee figure, that wheat la a few
cent higher at thl time than for tha
aame period last year; corn and oats
thl year are actually lower than they
were at tha same time laat year, and
this In far of tha fact of a general
war in Europe, which, naturally, baaed
cn supply and deman'1, would call for
considerable higher prloes. u '
"It certainly should b a source of
regret that the producer mould not get
aom. slight benefit at a tlma Ilka this,
while on the other hand, when aome un
foreseen Incident, such a a financial dis
aster, takes place and products are de
pressed. In many Instaaces below tha cost
of production, the quesMon of reimbursing
tha producer for tha to Is never con
aldered. anJ It seems to be regarded aa
purely natural that the farmer should
dlepose of hie product at whatever price
ho can get, regardless of the coat of
production."

Haa la Two Week.
Reports to .the Omaha grain exchange
that the railroads reaching Reltlmore had
rslsed the embsrgo on grain for export;
that Baltimore Is an open port, and that a
plan' for Insuring safe delivery of train In
Europe, the consignee assuming the risk
and paying the Inaurance 'rharges, sent
wheat up 3 to 4 cent yesterday morning
and started dealers to buying, many of
them taking over long line.
Omaha prices followed three to five
cents below fhirsg and sfter the first
hour there wa more activity In cash
grain than has been notd In the past two
weeks. However, the receipts were not
heavy, hut there were large quantities
sold out of storks In storage. The Omaha
receipts for the day were: Wheat. 22;
corn, 42. and oata. 2 cars.
Chicago advices were that price were
up right from the opening of the market.

as high as II. or,, and as low as 11.05. which

The grain men are of the opinion that
