Dealer* in Small Luts
Original Bucket Sliops
“Backet shop” Is another expres
sion which has an interesllng origin.
The old-fashioned stock broker* who
were members of the New York
stock exchange would not take an
order to buy or sell less than 1(>0
shares of stork on margin. Thus
those people whose capital did not
admit to their furnishing the neces
sary margin to trade in such a large
amount were shut out from trading.
A class of brokers, not member* of
the exchange, sprang np who made a
practice of accepting orders f»r odd
lots. When Ihe total amounted to
100 or some multiple of I (JO shares,
they would give a Joint order to
some regular broker for execution.
Thus the small orders were fitted to
gether as the staves of a bucket, and
the nickname of those intermediate
brokers or Jobber* grew to he “buck
et shop keepers.”

KANSAS WHEAT FARMER BETWEEN DEVIL AND "
DEEP BLUE SEA AS HARVEST PROGRESSES
lany Plan to Hold Grain
in Hope of Better
Prices Later
BY GARRETT PORTER,
United Press Correspondent.
Kansas City—Wheat farmers in
he broad fields of the southwest are
.'otween two fires.
Fast ripening grain demands im
mediate cutting and low prices
threatened losses to the farmers if
they send the grain to market.
July wheat touched 8914 cents in
Chicago Monday, a new low since
1914. In Kansas city July wheat
old at 82 cents this week. In some
of the producing centers the price
was as low as 70 cents.
Many Hold Grain
In the face of the threatened loss
es many farmers chose to hold their
grain.
The harvest is half completed in
Oklahoma and the Texas panhan
dle. Combined harvesting and
threshing machines work in north
ern Oklahoma and southern Kansas
counties this week. Operations in
Kansas worked northward toward
Nebraska, where the harvest is
scheduled to open within a few
days.
In addition to low prices, Kansas
faced a short crop. Below normal
yields were reported from some of
the best wheat producing counties
of the state, and observers believe
the crop may turn out to be only a
third of the expected yield.
Crop Below Estimates
Ford county, which produced 7,
000,000 bushels in 1929, was expected
to yield less than 3,000,000 this year.
The last report of the state depart
ment of agriculture estimated the
per-acre yield at 11.7 bushels, fcut
many fields that had been expected
to produce 20 bushels to the acre'
are yielding only seven or eight.
Damage in Kansas wheat fields
was attributed to a severe attack of
the fungus root-rot diseases by L.
E. Melchers, plant pathologist at
Kansas State Agricultural college.
Crop conditions in Oklahoma and
Texas are somewhat better. The in
dicated yield In Oklahoma is as
good or better than preliminary es
timates of 32,000,000 bushels and the
Texas total is placed at more than
35,000,000 bushels.
Missouri, with a June estimate of
19,500,000 bushels, reported yields in
many cases better than the expected
13 bushels an acre. Nebraska's
prospect* were better than average.
Estimates placed condition* at be
tween 80 and 85 per cent of normal,
with per-acre yield* at from 19.6 to
30.8 bushels.
Elevators Overflowing
June estimates placed the total
Increased use ef combines (above) has lessened need for fiei4
workers during harvest season. Hugo storage elevators, such as on*
below, will house much of crop.
yield from Texas, Colorado, Okla
homa, Kansas, Nebraska and Mis
souri at 289,327,000 bushels, but this
figure was made on . the basis of a
137,000,000 bushel yield in Kansas.
Elevators in the southern part of
the grain belt are bulging with
wheat, but the grain was not being
moved to market. One elevator in
Oklahoma, receiving 7,000 bushels in
one day, sold only 200 bushels. The
movement in Kansas also was less
than expected. Reports indicated
farmers expected to receive at least
20 cents more a bushel by holding
their wheat.
Farmers in the big wheat produc
ing counties of southern and west
ern Kansas received about 70 cents
a bushel for their grain this week.
The cost of raising the wheat is
difficult to determine.
Say* Costs Vary
Many individual farmers estimate
the coet at bet wen 80 cents and $1 a
bushel, but the wheat farming cor
poration claims it can raise wheat
for 24 oents a bushel in an average
year,
"I would not attempt to estimate
the per-bushel cost in Kansas be
cause the costs vary so widely in
various sections or the state, J. u.
Mohler, secretary of the Kansas
state board of agriculture, said.
Short, crops, low prices and a sur
plus of labor have brought a reduo
tion in wages *for harvest hands. Ne
braska farmers offered 35 cents an
hour, compared to last year's $5 a
day. and in Kansas growers wrere re
ported paying the pre-war wage
$3 a day.
NO DROP IN BREAD
Minneapolis—(UP)—The 5 cent
loaf of bread is a thing of the pant,
Minneapolis bakers said.
The price of wheat and flour may
go up, or down, but the price for at
pound loaf remains at the 8-cent
mark, where it wa3 set two yeaaa
ago, and bakers have no present in
tention to cut prlees.
While bread prices remained sta
tionary, millers reported that the
price of flour had dropped 65 cents a
barrel on first patents in the last
month.
Minneapolis mills were reported
to be stocked with wheat to nearly,
the capacity of their elevator spaoe,
so that only small amounts of choice
grain la actually being bought.
