The idea is to see who can eat the most doughnuts in a given period. The time allotted for consuming the doughnuts and other details of the contest have not been fully decided but it probably will be five minutes.

Every entrant, however, must be registered before he partici- pates. There are no limitations on the entrants in the way of age or sex.

Vogel was operated on this week and the fractured bones were reset, removing their pressure from his spinal cord. _ That pressure had caused paralysis of the entire body from the neck down, and while the paralysis has not disappeared, the pa- tient is ‘able to move his arms a bit. His temperature also has turned nor- mal. The case, therefore, is hopeful, despite the gravity of the injury. Vogel is the son of a farmer who lives 14 miles west of Mandan. A second case of broken vertebrae is being treated at the hospital. The patient is Chester Juberg, 25, son of a farmer at La Moure. Juberg was injured on the morning of July 4, a car at Galesburg, Ill., where he was a student of Lombard college. The car on which he was riding made a quick turn to avoid a car parked on a hilly street, which the party was descending, and ran into another car in doing so. Juberg was thrown to the roadway and his sixth and eighth dorsal vertebrae were dis- lodged, with extreme pressure to the spinal cord. The injured man was sent home to La Moure and his family had him brought here for treatment. Late News Bulletins | N. W.

SITUATION Editor of The Tribune: In reply to the Bismarck milk re- |port for the month of July given in ;the August 6 edition: In my opinion the time is opportune to explain to |the Bismarck milk consumers some of the reasons why such conditions are existent. There are a goodly number of dairymen in this community who operate dairies in a clean and sani- |tary manner and still their milk is | not being accepted because a cheaper and polluted product has been get- ting by. The people of Bismarck are paying a fair price for their milk supply and are entitled to a good, clean, whole- some product, therefore, we producers of good, clean, wholesome milk are also entitled to a fair price for our product. Are we getting it? Here are the facts: The prices, obtained for raw milk at present are as fol- lows: $2.25 per hundredweight with a differential of, four cents per hun- dredweight fof milk above or below 3.5 per cent butterfat, which is ap- proximately 17 cents per gallon for 3.5 per cent milk. The consumer Pays all the way from 30 to 44 cents per gallon. Some difference, is it not? As milk is a daily turn over business does it seem fair, in your opinion, to the pro- ducer? This summer we have had six weeks of pasture. As a rule we have from eight to 10 weeks of pas- ture. The dairies that are in close proximity to Bismarck naturally are paying higher rentals or own higher priced land than the people who are living 30 to 40 miles from our city where many of them are milking cows on the south side of a straw {stack or on the lee side of a pig stye, with no knoweldge whatsoever of the principle of good dairying. In com- petition with such product the dairy- men around Bismarck are expected to | compete. | I wish to give a slant on some of the differences in the cost of produc- |tion here in Burleigh county as com- pared to conditions existing in Min- nesota. For instance, a silo 16 feet in diameter and 40 feet high requires on an average from 40 to 80 acres of corn to fill it. In Minnesota a silo of the same dimensions requires from 12 to 20 acres. As a rule the cows in Minnesota are on pasture from June 1 to October 1. Then why use Min- nesota prices as an index for prices tobe obtained here for our product? You may say land is cheaper here but how about cultivating four or five times as many acres to obtain the same results? Labor costs of production are therefore quadrupled, excepting in cases of penal labor. Would you enjoy a glass of milk if you knew that some of this milk was produced by penal labor at our state | Penitentiary? Those men are working jat 25 cents per day, many with a vengeance. You drink this milk be- cause you are ignorant of its source. This milk has been sold in Bismarck for some time. Dairymen in this community pay their taxes the same as anywhere else. When the state penitentiary does not raise enough feed to sustain its herd some of the dairymen’s taxes are used to sus- tain it. I have considered the governor of our state a very good business man. A dairy commissioner is appointed to look after the dairy interests in this state. Much propaganda has come from this source, telling farmers not to sell their butterfat and buy oleo- margine instead. A fine example these state officials are lending to the dairymen when they sel! their penal labor milk in competition with the dairymen of this community and then go to the freight depot and haul to the penitentiary loads of oleomar- garine. Call this fair competition, if you please. it seems to me the spread-in price between producer and consumer is entirely too great. The producer has Minn.|an investment to work with in many cases far greater than the distributor. For example the milk sold by the distributor does not all come from one dairy. Many dairies contribute their product to one distributor. You can readily see there is an immense investment on the producer’s side to sustain one distributor for the milk he requires. The distributor's in- vestment may be, for instance, $25,- 000. The investments of the pro- ducers required to furnish this milk would be somewhere in the neighbor- hood of $250,000. One distributor, nearly 100 per cent more for the Product than the producers receive with an investment of only 10 per cent of that of the combined pro- ducers. Doesn’t seem right, does it? LOUIS J.
