GRAIN AND PRODUCE!
Cash Corn is Unusually Weak
and Takes Record Slump
of Twenty-Four to ,
Thirty-One Cents.
Omaha, August 11. 1917.
The cash corn situation was extremely
weak today and all varieties of this cereal
sold at an unusually heavy decline, the
bulk of th offerings being quoted from
J4o to 31c below the quotations of the
previous day.
The heavy decline In corn was caused. In
a large measure, by a noticeable absence of
the distilling demand which has been So
keen during the last few weeks, but the
local floor demand was moderatly active,
and quite a few of tho offerings were re
portd sold before the close of tho cash
session.
, The wheat market wn-i very dull with
prices quoted from 4c to 4c lower and
while arrivals of this cereal continued very
light the demand was very poor and as a.
result not one sale of wheat was potted up
to 12:30.
The oats market was fairly active with
moderatly heavy arrivals and sellers re
ported a rather good inquiry for this article
at prices ruling from unchanged to Ho
lower.
There were, no sales, of No. 2 whit or
standard oats reported and the bulk of the
offerings, which graded No. 3 white sold at
74itc, while to No. 4 white brought 74o and
74Vic. ,
The better grades of white corn sold up
around 81.88 to (1.90, while the yellow
ranged from $1.79 to 81.81 and th mixed
sold generally at $1.78 to 81.80.
Rya .and barley were quoted nominally
unchanged and the trade In these cereals
was dull with continued light arrivals.
Clearances were: Wheat and flour qual
to 104,000 bu.
Primary grain receipts were 891,000 bu.
and shipments 492.000 bu.. against receipts
of 1.883.000 bu. and shipments of 1,114,000
bu. last year.
Primary corn receipts were 603,000 bu.
and shipments 328,ono bu.. against receipts
of 608.000 bu. and shipments of 551,000 bu.
last year.
Primary oats receipts were J. 069.000 bu.

FACE DIFFICULTY
IN SEEDING WHEAT
Farmers Find Corn Rows Are
Too Close Together to Use
Standard One-Horse
Drill.
Great difficulty is encountered in
getting the fall wheat crop seeded in
Nebraska this yVar. The com rows
are too close together to admit the
standard one-horse drill between them.
The trouble has been looked "into
by the University of Nebraska, Col
lege of Agriculture, and the situation
is believed to be serious. The authori
ties at the college of agriculture im
mediately canvassed the implement
manufacturing concerns of the coun
try to see if a narrower thill could
be quickly manufactured for the mar
ktt here, but were told this is im
possible, owing to the shortage of
steel, and the crowded condition of
manufacturing in the country at the
present time.
The situation arises out of the fact
that much of the wheat was winter
killed last winter and that this ground
tvas listed into corn in the spring.
Now the only way to get that corn
land back into winter wheat is to go
through t now with a one-horse drill
between the rows and drill in wheat,
which will come up now, lie dormant
in the corn stalks through the winter,
and then produce a crop in the spring.
Difficulties Arise.
However, the fact that corn was
listed into the wheat land in the
spring with no markings to go by,
made it difficult to calculate the dis

tance the rows were being plated
apart.
When corn is listed into old corn
laud it is an easy matter to follow
the old rows, but when it is being
listed into plowd ground or wheat
land, there is no standard to go by,
and the tendency was to run the rows
too close together, rather than too far
apart. Especially did this tendency
grow out of the constant cry for con
servation and ;he eternal urge upon
the farmer to produce more on his
acreage.
The standard one-horse wheat drill
is made to fit exactly between corn
rows, the standard width apart. Corn
that is checked with a planter is al
ways of this standard width as to
rows.
Considerable alarm over the situa
tion that has thus developed is felt
by the authorities at the University
of Nebraska, ami by those farmers
who have already purchased one
horse drills and fcntnd them useless in
some of their fields.

Power for Milling
Omaha as
With the announcement of the or-'
ganization and incorporation of the
Omaha Roller Mills company to take
over the property of the Gate City
Malt company and produce 1,800 bar
rels of flour per day, began a lot of
active thinking in Omaha as to Oma
ha's possibilities as' a flour milling
center.
Plenty of Wheat.
The coining of the new roller mill
means that Omaha's daily output of
flour will be practically doubled. Oma
ha now produces 2,000 barrels of flour
per day. That is the output of the
'combined flour mills of the city. The
new mill is to be, built for a capacity
output of 1,800 barrels per day.
When interested parties began to
examine the figures they found that
Minneapolis receives 225,000,000 bush
els of grain per year and mills 80,000
barrels of flour per day, or about 24,
000,000 barrels per year. It was found
that Omaha receives 75.000,000 bushels
of grain per year and puts out only

Is as Cheap in
It Is in Minneapolis
2,000 barrels of flour per day, or 600,
000 barrels per year.
Thus it was found that Minneapolis
receives only three times as much
grain as Omaha, but puts out forty
times as much flour.
Power Is Cheap Here.
Omaha manufacturers and business
inen are beginning to see that there
is no longer any excuse for this dif
ference. For many years the opinion
prevailed that Minneapolis had a
great advantage over Omaha in the
matter of power. It was commonly
supposed that water power was very
cheap and very generally used in Min
neapolis. Those who have looked
into the situation very closely now
maintain that most of the big mills
there are rim by electricity, and that
water power was used only when the
milling industry was young in Minne
apolis. The new mill in Omaha will
use electric power, and that is what
the Minneapolis mills use. Officers of
the new company in Omaha say the
power here is just as cheap now as it
is in Minneapolis.
