GRAIN CAR SHORTAGE A shortage of railroad grain cars is affecting farmers and g r a i n e l e v a t o r o p e r a t o r s throughout the Midwest. Ralph S. Bradley, Illinois director of agriculture, said the shortage began to be apparent about two weeks ago, and has now become critical. Elevator operators report that they are obtaining only about 20 or 25 per cent of the number of cars they request, and since this is the height of the corn harvest season, elevators rapidly are becoming filled to capacity and some will be unable to accept any more grain.. Once again the roaming dogs make the "nuisance news". From what I have heard many of the surrounding vicinities have the same trouble from time to time. To air dog owners --this message coifies from all persons whom your canine pets have been visiting --please! please- keep them at home. I can't think of anyone who has anything against your dogs except if they come in your yard to destroy your evergreens and scare your children. A close neighbor of mine called me the other day to say she has a most defiant dog who comes to her yard just about every day. Chasing just does no good so she is getting quite desperate. It is a large black and white spotted dog- If this is your pet, please keep it at home or you may not have it much longer. My neighbor is getting terribly disgusted and is about to call in the authorities. So once again dog owners, please avert trouble and keep your dogs at home where they belong.
