All rights of republication of all other matter herein are also reserved. The Other Side Practically all of the agitation which has come from the rural sec- tions in recent weeks has had to do with the question of prices. ‘That this is only half the picture, ‘and perhaps the smallest half at that, is disclosed by examination of the figures upon which Burleigh county farmers base their applications for wheat allotments published Thursday by this newspaper. These have been carefully checked by district and county committees and are as near accuraie as it is possible to get them. A few changes may be made but the list, as it was published for Bur- Jeigh county, is very near to being correct now. ‘What does it show? First of all that a good deal of the responsibility for decreased farm in- come, at least in this area, lies in lack of production. This year, for example, it doesn’t make a great deal of difference to some Burlefgh coun- ty farmers whether wheat sells for 50 cents a bushel or $5 a bushel. They had little or none to sell. Some fine averages are reported, to ‘be sure, but they are the exception rather than the rule, as witness the comparatively low base fixed for making the allotments. The figures show, too, that many farmers have literally been driven away from wheat farming and into other lines of agriculture because of poor yields. This, of course, has been due to the drouth rather than to any na- tural infertility of our soil. Crops) cannot grow without rain and nature has been very stingy with that in recent years. Consider, for example, the cases of two Burleigh county farmers, taken at random from the list. In 1930 Farmer A planted 45 acres and got 460 bushels. In 1931 it was 53 acres and @ crop failure, and in 1932 it was 32 acres and 217 bushels. ‘His average is 433 acres and 225.6 bushels, or roughly 5.2 bushels per acre. Farmer B planted 95 acres in 1930 and got 823 bushels. In 1931 he planted 30 acres and got 222 bushels and in 1932 it was 85 acres and 687 bushels, an average for the three years of 70 acres and 517.3 bushels, or 8.2 bushels per acre. Farmer B, by the way, made a showing slightly above the average. Deduct the cost of seed, plowing, seeding and harvesting costs, plus the cost of getting the grain to market, and it is clear that only very high prices would enable either of these men to break even. Any remedy which may be applied by man is not immediately apparent. No human being could either foresee or forestall the searing winds and high temperatures which blighted our crop after a good start last spring, All the rainmakers have proved to be fakes. It is true that this condition ap- plies only to a part of North Dakota, but the fact is that the showing in some counties is worse just as the showing of some counties will be better, On the whole, we are pretty close to average. No intelligent man will contend ‘The first phase was the ers of unanimous public approval. ' fi § Hi Pale poi f ' grind. There is some sniping going on, of rourse, touched off by gross selfishness; yet that in itself is not enough to explain the change in the _. |public's attitude. Evidently we simply came to the end of the period in which our one wish was to see “action, and action now.” We couldn’t go on cheering forever over the fact that the na- tional government had recovered from an attack of paralysis. It got to be high time for us to bring our 20 critical faculties to life. This 's bound to be a good thing 00|for the administration. No government can give its best if there is a complete and continued absence of criticism. If its every act is hailed as a masterpiece of wisdom, it sooner or later will get to be like an engine without a flywheel. Perhaps the best thing that could have happened to the recovery pro- gram as a whole is the fact that peo- ple now are ready to speak up in meeting the moment they see a flaw in it. We are, after all, still a democracy and not a dictatorship. We want to stay that way. By subjecting the re- covery program to critical analysis, we simply are proving that our de- mocracy is continuing to function in the proper manner. Not a Strong Case Proof that Hitlerist Germany has launched a propaganda campaign in this country is contained in envelopes delivered this week to many North Dakota newspapers. Under the heading “Speaking of Hitler” it gives excerpts from the American press which may be inter- preted as favorable to Naziism in the Reich. Most prominent among these are comments on the effect of the Versailles treaty on the subsequent course of world events and the de- fenselessness of Germany from the standpoint of armaments. Conversely, attention is directed toward the posi- tion of France, most heavily armed of all the nations. ‘These things, of course, have long been subjects for comment by the American Press. Editors everywhere have recognized the handicaps to sane world adjustment imposed by the peace treaty. That France has im- peded rather than helped the cause of disarmament is no secret. That Germany has been buffeted and im- posed upon is pretty well agreed. But this has little, if anything, to do with the situation created by the rise of Hitler. It does not excuse him for rattling the sword anew in Europe, even though his weapon still is a frail one. It does not justify the at- tempt to invoke in the German people @ new will to war or the development of a new “Deutschland Uber Alles” complex for use if and when she again is in position to fight. Neither does it make any more laudable Hit- ler's actions in raising the flag of racial intolerance or his thrust at the heart of Democracy in Europe. Nevertheless, it is perfectly proper for Hitler's friends in this country to Present his side of the case. Any tolerance worthy of the name grants him the right to be heard. No one will resent receiving literature design- ed to improve the Nazi status in this country. There are some conditions, however, which should be met. It should be made perfectly plain who is circulat- ing this propaganda, who is paying for it, and what the object is. Unfortunately for its effectiveness, these things were ignored in the ini- tial burst of Nazi effort. If they want to get a fair hearing, Hitler's friends out why cops do not always cooperate to make this mistake. It weakens their case, which is a poor one at best.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Blotchy Palms Kindly advise what causes the in- | 4 sides of the hands to become red and ing of some internal structure through | piotched, especially in hot weather. THE CURE OF RUPTURE Rupture, breach or hernia as physi- cians call it, is a protrusion or bulg- the walls of the cavity or space where the structure belongs. We need not discuss the causes of hernia nor the different types of hernia here. That) is rather a technical aspect which concerns the physician, not the pa- tient. The question which interests the patient is the cure. ‘Ten years ago I made short work of this question. I assured the hernia or rupture victim quite positively that the radical operation was the only cure for hernia, and I urged every sufferer not over middle age to un- dergo the operation as a matter of good sense, comfort, safety and eco- nomy. I believe I was right about it then. But the times change, and I no longer give such advice. If I had a hernia, myself I certainly should not submit to the radical operation, at least not until I had given the am- bulant treatment a fair trial. By ambulant treatment I mean & series of injections of medicine which in a fair share of cases brings about acure. Never mind the technical de- tails—leave that to the physician who gives the treatment. All the layman needs to know is what I am telling him here—and I challenge any one to stop me if I am wrong. I believe the ambulant treatment of hernia is much safer for the patient than the radical operation is. It does not in- terfere with the patient's ordinary ac- tivities or his job.
