PAGE TWO LEAGUE LEADER FOR COUNTY IS. REAL SOCIALIST Because -he met the two chief ri quirements for leadership in the Non- partisan league--a socialist and a resident of Bottineau county—How-} ard L. -Elliott has been appointed league organizer for Burleigh coun. ty. Elliot is generally reg of the leading so ists in North Dakota, ranking with Townley, Le Sueur, Hennessey Seaman Smith and others more or less prominent in league affairs.

On Socialist Ticket In 4912 Elliott’ ran for state audi- tor on the socialist ticket and receiv- ed 7,264 votes out of a total of 78,000. In 1914, he was a candidate for the legislature from the twenty-eight dis-} trict which includes Bottineau coun- ing 281 votes out of a total Before coming to Burleigh county, where his expert socialistic advice will undoubtedly be greatly in demand among league officials at the state capital, Elliott was a league or- ganizer in Bottineau county. And then the “We'll Stick” farmers wonder why anti-Townleyites insist that the league is nothing but au offshot of the old s list party in ‘North Dakota.

D., May 18.—A sum- mary of the items of cost of produc- ing an acre of wheat, as estimated by the farm management expert of the extension division at'state college, in- dicates that it costs:from $20 to $25 per acre_to produce this crop, The average yield per acre in South Dako- ta in 1919 was eight bushels. -Thiy would indicate a production cost for 1919 of $2.50 to $3.50 per bushel. As the 1919 crop was virtually a failure in many sections, a fairer esti- mate of average production costs un- der present conditions can be secured by using the ten year average as the figure for, yield. for South Dakota. practically the same whether the yield be large or small, the same figure for acre cost can be used. This would indicate that the cost of producing the bulk of South Dakota spring wheat un- der present conditions will be in the neighborhood of $1.68 to $2.10. A price that will maintain produc- tion may have to be considerably above the average cost of production; as half of the wheat is produced at a cost higher than the average cost, while half is produced at a cost be- As the acre cost is bulk of the farms under present con- ditions will be well over $2. Approximate ‘items of cost for each’ acre have been computed as follows: Land rent or interest on investment $4.00 to $8.00 Man labor 6.74 hrs. by regular help at 40 $2.60 Man labor 4.03 hrs. by harvest and 2.42 % threshing .60 Horse labor 23:25 hrs. @ 4. 2.15 to $8.00 42.38 expense, threshing, 2.98 to 4.00 Machinery cost Seed General farm twine, fuel, etc., 17 to $28.64. $ will, of course, vary on different farms. Any farmer may substitute his own costs and the yield in place of those given. Yield per acre is the largést factor in raising or lowering cost per bushel, as the acre cost is practically fixed. This is 11.9 bushels } These items, as well as the yield,| extreme but. .who. has the nobility of | character that we are told belonged ; to the famous knights of old is the ‘hero ,of this spirited picture.

GIRLS, HERE’S RECORD—TWO HIKE FROM CAPITAL TO CITY IN 5 MINUTES Two Bismarck young ladies today are oither champion walkers or they are not— It makes -no difference, for they got the reward. Ariel Anderson, ‘a junior in high school, and Hazel McIntosh, employed at the Bank-of North Dakota, were enjoying a Sunday afternoon stroll. They met Postmaster Frank Reed, the ‘soul of courtesy and gallantry. “We just walked from the capitol in five minutes,” chorused the_ girls, all out of breath. “Ah!” exclaimed Mr. Reed. Some- thing was in the air. “A mile in five minutes,” he mused. “Pye known some automobiles that would be proud’ of shat record. But that’s fine— “Oh, yowre not forgetting the wager?” future power on the motor fuel, man can increased ‘use of mec “Oh, yes,” responded the. gallant postmaster. “Excuse me, excuse me, I'd almost forgotten. You have earn- ed a box of candy, you certainly have.” £ And the girls got the box of candy. The postmaster is silent as to his opinion of the record and the girls have hurled a challenge to all other | girls-in Bigmarck to equal it. ; Not only do they hurl the challenge but they are willing to make the walk again on a day when they have the wind to their backs with referees and time keepers at the capitol and the postoffice, each with synchron- ized watches so that theyrecord can be established once and for all.
