zone agent of the Grain Corporation So he wrote a letter to the represents live stationed at SU Louis. That letter was referred to the tratlic expert in the New York office, who transmitted the following rule for determining the price of wheat at nny country point:
There is only one price for wheat at a c o u n t r y p o i n t T h a t p r i c e is a l w a y s to be arrived at by taking as a basis the price at the most advantageous primary market where we have fixed a price and deducting the freight to that market and a fair handling prof t. That is the price to be' paid for wheat at any station, regardless of the ooint to which it may be shipped.
Working out the price which should be paid for wheat at your station is a fine occupation for an oft* day. If you cannot find the answer, -vrlte to the Food Administration Grain Corporation in New York City and its traffic exnert will Sjve you aid. Finding the Price of No. 2 Wheat at

Por all practical purj*»ses the wheat business of tbe country is apportioned, and win-never possible mills are supplied from wheat in the territory nearest them. This policy has for an object tbe saving of waste in transportation. In another way saving is made: Formerly large quantities of undergrade wheats have been difficult to dispose of on account of unco-ordi-nated purchase of the competing mills; but under Lncle Mm a dotoiuation each bushel of wheat must uow go somewhere and the poorer wheat will move just as freely aa the more desirable grades.

MOUNT VERNON DRAWS MANY
Noted Savoys From Allies and Thousands of Others Pay Visit to
Washington's Tomb.
Peaceful and stately tis usnaL Mount Vernon touay seems happily unconscious of the very* existence of war. Yet tbe war has had its efTect on this mecca of America, for more people have visited it in recent mouths than in any similar period in its history.
Washington, the center of things military and diplomatic, has ahtCS April r j u . openeu us gates to .*J,uuu new residents come to take up the work uf a ff**'»t"*intirrf at was, Thou-- • • '"I" •>* Hl>— lm»rl<-«n< t . . l -„ ,K~ Ou»» opportunity to visit the home of the ifreatest American.
Besides these, envoys from our allies on diplomatic mission to the Ftiit.-d States make a point of Journeying to Mount Vernon to honor Washington. They travel as guests of the nation, in the president's yacht Mayflower. The Mayflower fcaa «i,-.....i«. ......;.. f-.;i- trivs of this sort. First she carried Balfour and Marshal Joffxe, then the Italian mission, then the Belgian and Russian missions together, and lastly the Japanese viscount and his party.
Each time the iron gates of Wasn-' lugton's tomb swum; open for these men to place their wreaths on the shrine n ithin. while the diplomats, with the problems of the World on their shoulders, paid tribute to the man who carried similar burdens faithfully ami well a century ago.
The record for the largest number of visitors to Mount Vernon in a day was; very nearly set at the time of the coned.-rate reauton, when 7.00O of the old
soldiers nnd their friends visited the •state in one day.

TEMPERED BY TRADE WINDS
Climate of the Dominican Republic Pleasant and Saiubrioua, Says
Consul Arthur McLean.
There seems to be an impression abroad that the climate of the Do •nlnlcan Republic Is hot, humid, ant unhealthful. writes Consul Arthur Mc Lean. Puerto Plata. While the climatt of this republic la tropical. It Is pleasant and salubrious. Although it Is very warm during tbe middle of the day, the temperature even In summer seldom reaches 1*0 degrees F., and the nights at all seasons are cool and pleasaut. The climate is tempered by the trade winds which blow almost continuously during the dny. and at night tbe lund breeze from the mountains is equally refreshing. Owing to the great diversity of its relief the Island of Santo Domingo presents a wider rungr of climate than any other part of the Antilles. The mean annual temperature of the coast towns is about Th degrees F. It is cooler inland, the temperature varying with the altitudes. In the valley of Constant:, which is
«"wUi *»*^ CiruicI Oi iO«- i-siuuu, a t <*u elevation of ;5,.'AX) reet ice forms in winter occasionally.
The rainfall varies in different sections of the Island from 15 to 200 inches per annum. Iq the southern part of the island there is a marked distinction between the dry and rainy seasons. The dry season is duriug the mouths of Bant ember to Mrreh, while the rainy season extends frntn April to August. In the northern half of the island it rains more or less all tbe year, although the heaviest rainfall occurs from November to April.
There have never been any epidemics of cholera and bubonic plague, and it is many years since there has been any yellow fever In tbe Dominican Republic.

Some Inducement. Christopher Brown walked Into the
local recruiting station of the United States marine corps at Philadelphia, Rttya the Troy Times, and after announcing that he was from Braintree. said he wanted to enlist. "The idea of enlisting is a good one." said the recruiting sergeant, "hut what is Brain-tree—a breakfast food or an educational institution?" "It Is a town In Massachusetts—the only towa In the United States that erer produced two presidents," proudly replied Brown. "John Adams was born there, and so was John Qutncy Ada ma John Han-rock was born there, too, aa was Col. Charles G. Long, chief of staff of the marine corps. If you take me Into the murine corps I may be running the thing In a year or two."
