Manitoba Farmers Getting
35c Bushel — Amounts
To $25,000,000.
WINNIPEG, Man., May 15.—There
have been a number of inquiries, both
froun the east and from Britain, as
to the amount of wheat still in the
farmers’ hands and for sale over and
above seed requirements. It is fig
ured at about 25,000,000, all told, of
which probably 22,000,000 will be
suitable for flour. But this esti
mate is considered high by many in
the trade and is much higher than
that of the North West Grain Deal
ers. But there are about five months
of the crop year to run and we have
250,000 farms on which are grown
'more or less wheat, and if the fann
ers have cleaned up more closely,
over and above seed, than the 25,
000,000 indicated, it is a closer
clean up than has ever been made
before.
At the first of March the situa
tion was about as follows: In round
figures 45,000,000 bushels were in
store at the head of the lakes, Can
adian eastern ports and afloat; 14,
000,000 in American ports; 23,000,
000 in interior elevators’ hands, and
7,000,000 in the shape of flour in
store in Canada. Flour requirements
for home consumption will run around
7,000,000 bushels and leaving, say,
from 12,000,000 to 15,000,000 for grain
in transit and a carry-over, there
should be around 90,000,000 bushels
for export as either wheat or flour.
The question of what will be seed
ed this year is an interesting one.
Foster and the Smithsonian Insti
tute at Washington, D. C., are
agreed, apparently, that it is to be an
exceedingly hot summer. That being
the case the wheat acreage 3hould
be considerably reduced, as a precau
tionary measure.

Frank Miller and John Allen
Must Serve Time—
Say Nothing
VANCOUVER, B. C., May 15.[—
Three years’ imprisonment in the
New Westminster penitentiary was
the term meted out by Magistrate
Shaw in police court today to each
of the two youthful bandits, Frank
Miller and John Allen, who had
| previously pleaded guilty to charg
| es of robbery with violence and re
manded for sentence.
Miller was given an additional
three years’ imprisonment on a sec
ond count of banditry, but the term
will run concurrently with that first
stipulated. Both youths took their
sentence calmly and when asked if
they had anything to say, smiled
faintly and answered, “No.”

Stars Less Scare Than
Competent Film Extras
HOLLYWOOD, May 15.—(/P)—Fif
ty thousand applicants for positions
in motion pictures present to stud
ies a great problem in the selection
of competent, experienced extras, B,
P. Fineman, studio manager, declar
ed here. Many, unusal to work be
fore the camera, often spoil expen
sive scenes which have to be discard
ed.
iA plan has been evolved, Fineman
said, whereby the extra problem will
be solved, at least for his studio. He
has arranged to guarantee group*
of 50 experienced extras at least 12
days’ work a month.
Few extras average more than six
or seven days’ work a month. Fine
man asserted. The great problem
of the beginner in the film game is
to get enough to pay bare living
expenses.
Leads and minor roles are cared
for by experienced actors, competent
to fill their roles, thousands of which
are available, but the extra is the
greatest casting problem of all.
