THE BEMIDJE DATLY FIONEER SRR STRUGGLES REWARDED It is said that a certain western editor recently retired after twenty years of steady grinding with the neat sum of $70,000 to reward him' for his honest toil, his interest in the upbuilding of the community in which | he lived and flourished, his faithful| devotion to his towns people and his sorrow over-the death of his uncle, who left him in the neighborhood of $69,999.65. i % % % | BOTHFELL TOGETHER The Wisconsin supreme court has recently ruled that if you have hard- wood floors ‘and oriental rugs you don’t have to tack the rugs down.

Shocks From Pens. “When plants die, they give off a large amount of electricity.

Whether it is possible for aeroplanes to land -and rise on these snowy heights will have to be de- termined by experts. It is hoped that they will be able to drop supplies.

Ford, President of the Ford Motor Company, gives out the following statement: . , “The pr’fice of the FORDSON Tractor. has been reduced from $790.00 to $625.00, cffective immediately. “This price change has been made possible through lower costs of materials and the fact that we are now located in our new Tractor Plant with greatly increased economic manufacturing facilities in im- mediate connection with olr-foundry and machine shops and large blast furnaces where iron is poured directly from the ore, giving us maximum efficiency with the power to reduce cost of production, and down comes the price in line with our policy to market our products at the lowest possible figure without in any way affecting our high stand- ard of quality. ; : “We are particularly pleased in being able to bring about this big reduction in price at this time because the farmer needs all the help we can give him and this big cut in price will be the means of. placing a valuable power unit within the reach of practically every one of them, not to mention industrial and commercial concerns which likewise have benefited through its use and are already realizing, to a much greater extent, its value as a power and hauling unit. But.particularly has the - FORDSON Tractor proved a most valuable factor in the saving of farm labor, at the same time increasing the per acre crop yield as welle as making possible a utilization of previously ungultivated land, to say nothing of remeving no end of drudgery. 7 _ “There is no question that the use of machine power on the farm i the greatest advancement made in the development of agriculture, ndt only in money saving and money making results as well as raising the standards of living on the farm to a much higher level, but because of its proved value in making every type of laiid more productive, and consequently our desire to place the FORDSON within the reach of all. “THERE IS NO CHANGE IN THE PRESENT FORD CAR AND TRUCK PRICES, which are already at the lowest possible fig- ure and now with reck bottom reached on the tractor price, a further reduction in price of either, Car, Truck or Tractor is out of the ques- tion; in fact, the big price euts have been made in anticipation of con- tinuous maximum production and increases may be necessary before long if a large volume of new business is not obtained. Therefore, preserit prices of Ford products cannot be guaranteed against possible increases.” ‘ ‘ ) Ask for the book, “THE FORDSOMN AT WORK,” which will be supplied free of cost.
