Last week the Farm Board issued a pamphlet, "Practical Experiences in Feeding Wheat," to persuade farmers that Mr. Legge was right. This pamphlet received front-page publicity in scores of newspapers, urban as well as rural. But what put it over was not Chairman Legge's eloquence or the testimony of farmers with contented wheat-fed cows. The news-value was in a little item written for the first...
