Hun dreds of Pennsylvania agriculturists and their wives who have come here to rthe annual Farmers' Week con ferences at the State College agri cultural school today were told that they would have to lead the move ment in the downward trend of prices. If the cost of farm food products is to come anywhere near the pre-war level, they learned, the farmer will have to head the pro cession because he is opposed by organized labor, which was Baid to be clamoring for a reduction in everything except wages. W. J. Spillman, associate editor of the Farm Journal, of Philadel phia, and attached to the United States Department of Agriculture, was discussing the agricultural out- 1 look after the war when he touched upon the subject of the farmers' price list. He put the responsibil ity for the conditions upon the farmers, because they are unor ganized, he said. According to Mr. Spillman, the bulk of the profits will still con tinue to go to the middleman, what ever the price situation may be, inasmuch as they will have the unorganized producers on one hand a'nd the unorganized consumers on the other. He expressed the belief that Governmental agencies will soon have to delve into the facts of the middlemens' business to de termine where inefficiency and wasteful methods prevail. While he did not advocate stringetnt regulations controlling the middlemen, Mr. Spillman contended that the business of distributing many products had become com plex and expensive.

A resolution to extend the time of the Old Age Pension Commission so Conditions Favorable For Building A Home THE object in building a home is comfort. The opportunity for home building and owning comes with the possession of surplus means which can be invested in that way. Many wage earners, recently earning more than ever before, have prudently laid aside a part of their earnings and have now accumulated consider able sums with which they can begin home con structions. Delay may result in spending or the unwise investment of such earnings. It is not necessary to have sufficient money to pay for the entire cost—ask your banker or busi ness friend. It is pretty hard "to keep the home fires burning" in a rented house. United Ice & Coal Co. Lumber Drpniiment Forster and Cowden Sts.
