THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, JULY 23, 1920. South Side Gar Shortage proves Handicap to Farmers Seeking Finances Thre is an abundance of grain in storage in elevators and on farms of Nebraska, according to the state ment of Warren Andrews of Syra cuse, who was a visitor at the stock Vards. I -Mr. Andrews said the need of ready cash with which to pay hired help and bolster up bank balances is a matter of serious concern with many farmers and he is of the opinion that shortage of funds is due to the shortage of grain cars. He said that at Syracuse the con gestion of grain was the worst in IS years. "The local elevators are filled to capacity," said Mr.' Andrews, "and much of the old crop of grain has not yet been hauled from farm gran aries. Llevator men are sending out notices that they cannot accept grain on account of car shortage, and as a result many farmers are short of ready cash and as banks are not al lowed to loan over from $5,000 to $6,000 to any one individual, even on the best of collateral, many farm ers are hampered in the operation of their farms.' Acquiring of Farm Land Now Difficult, Says Farmer "Opportunities for acquiring for tunes in farming by the acquisition of farm lands are not as good as in years gone by," according to P. B. Hanipl of Clarkson, who came in this week with a shipment of live stock. of today will have as easy a time getting started on the farm as did the young men of my generation," said Mr. Hanipl. "The cost of im plements has gone up over 400 per cent during the 15 years I have been farming) while the price the farmer receives (pr his products has not kept pace with the advance. "In 1909 I could get a wagon for t2 that cost me $60 in 1918 and now 11 wouldn't be surprised to hear that Vhe price is boosted to $175. 1 m satisfied there are great possibilities on a farm for a young man today, but the proposition has resolved U self into a gamble pure and simple, with the farmer laying the big odds." Associated Charities Gets New Home for Mrs. Mary Broderick Mrs. Stella Manderville is 'expe riencing difficulty i evicting Mrs. Mar; Broderick from her property at 2708 G street. Constable Zack Ellis, who said last Monday that he would not serve the writ of restitu tion obtained by J. P.

Wheat .A 548,000 211,000 Chicago Tribune says: It ,was said the chanpre to the buying side by a few big operators after the first hour yesterday was due to less, favorable crop reports from the northwest. There are prospects of lighter receipts of corn within a few days, as the Burlington road is said to have ordered 60 per cent of Its available box cars from the corn country to Nebraska, to move wheat. Malntalnance of a premium on cash corn over July and the cancellation of receipts of 60,000 bush els corn for shipment by an Industry when It was thought it would remain here for months, also counted In favor of buying for a rise, as the trade leaders saw It. James A. Patten, who rode from Spring field to Chicago oyer the Alton, road by daylight, says the oats crop Is poor and the corn most uneven, with very little In tassel, although It should all be In that stage. He Is neither bullish or bearish, ho says. Consumption of wheat In the United States In 1919-1920. as estimated by the Dally Trade Bulletin, was 528.000.000 bushels, or 32.000,000 bushels In excess of the previous season, the average peroaptta being 4.98 bushels. Seed requirements were 90.000.000 bushels. After allowing for 225,000,000 bushels exported there was a carry-over of 151,000.000 bushels Into the new crop, of which 103,000,000 bushels were in second hands. Black rust first made Ha appearance In Minnesota and the Dakotas around July 20, 1J04.. It was not factor until July 25, when prices began to move upward. September wheat advanced from 80 In July to $1.22 In September, the latter be ing the highest of the season. May ad vanced from 83Hc in July to $1.18 In September and touched Sl.il the fol lowing February. The spring wheat crop that year was reduced from 276,000.000 in July to 219.000.004- bushels at harvest. The northwest raised 154,000.000 bushels that year, the smallest in four years.

Reports of damage to the wheat crop from rust are coming from Holdrege, Neb., as well as from the Dakotas and Min nesota and have effect. G. A.

Large amounts of short corn have been covered in tho last two days and the sur plus has been taken off the market.

Stocks moved uncertainly, with the broader tendency toward somewhat lower levels, until abstracts' of Senator Harding's speech of acceptance of the republican nomination reached the Street. Thereafter there were signs of short -covering; in the in dustrial list, whieh brought a firm appearance to prices. The railroad shares, be it said, were steadier than the others all the way along, and the appearance of transactions in a number of usually inactive is sues was accompanied by substan tial gains. The speculative community felt more confidence than before that the railroad wage increases would be accepted without anything like general disapproval by the recip ients. It seemed, also, that the market was paying increased atten tion to the pending freight and pas senger rate increases, moved by the thought that the Interstate Com merce commission would be likely to make full allowance for the en hanced wage accounts. In the light of the Pennsylvania rail road's program for eliminating unneces Ihny hands from tho eastern payroll, the followers of railroad securities are wondering whether the movement toward gitater efficiency will not have an ap pieclable effect In the next year In cut ting down operating costs. Keonomles plus higher rates would be factors which tho railroad security market has been longing for ever since the demands of wartime service caused a change in tha cautious expenditures of peace times. Final Prices Irregular. The fiiuil array nf prices was Irregular, v.-lth net gulns In the majority. Sugar stucks reflected considerable pressure as on Wednesday, due to an alteration of speculative sentiment over the sugar mar ket. It Is evl.l.nt that the complexion of the sugar situation has been changed con siderably by a combination of events. High prices In this country has natual ly attracted offerings from producing countries, sales beim? considered all the more worth while because of advantage er-.talled In the conversion of resultant dollars into exchanqo greatly depreciated here. But more Important that this has been the undoing of speculative ventures in both raw and refined sugar, liquidation being hastened by the receipt of backed up Porto Rlean supplies and by the re luctance of consumers to pay the extra ordinary prices of May and June, The current quotation of 15.55c per pound for raw sugar, campared with the maximum of 2314c in May, tells of a severe decline. The sugar shqrcs rallied fairly well be fore the close in course of the general covering movement. Call Money Adequate. Call money stayed nt 8 per cent and adequate offerings were reported. It was somewhat surprising to the Street to find in the treasury's report on gold Im ports atid exports for the first 10 days of July that Japan had taken approxi mntely $7,600,000, while the total of the outflow, $9,840,000, was greater than Im ports during the period. The shipments to Japan Indicate a1 change of the policy which Japanese bankers here believe would be continued when 'business diffi culties In the easterq country developed In May. It was thought that Japan woull not be Inclined to draw down her Ameri can balances In gold, but the export figures presumably show that Investments arc being liquidated and the proceeds taken away. Japanese exchange at New Y( rk has remained at a slight premium following a recovery from a moderate dtellne two months ago. Sterling exchange lost 2c more today to $3.801. French and BelRlan rates accompanied sterling In the decline. In the wheat market a jather sharp recover occurred.
