Wheat Marketing and Political Turmoil in Toulon
Nearly 600 bushels of wheat were sold in Toulon last Wednesday as farmers near this farm shipped grain to depots and side tracks. The piece notes depots reduce long hauls for Wheathined and Freedom farmers and mentions secretary Coburn declining a U S Senate bid to stay at the state Board of Agriculture, with Judge A W Benson of Franklin County appointed and heading to Washington. It also records Abbie Westbrook’s Kansas City Topeka visit, a G A R Encampment note, and a Decoration Day political rebuke to A W Smith in Salina with protesters.
