The good, rich tobacco taste stays right with this class of tobacco. ' That’s why it costs you less to chew it. ee Any man who uses the Real Tobacco Chew will tell you that.

The first place goes to Montana. in the northwest posed education as Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont New Hampshire and Wisconsin It is noticeable that all the northwestern states stand high, higher than eastern states, and that the southern states are al! at the bottom of the list with South Carolina at the foot. The report shows that the west has been advancing from an educa- tional standpoint while the east has been losing. The south “never was.” New England states have been falling off in educational ad- vancement and it is to be com- mented that while New England is accepted as the place of “learning” largely owing to its great universities, its common schools do not measure up with those of the west. UNDER YOUR OWN ROOF. A revival of home-owning and old fashioned home life is needed in our country. Farm renters and families liv- ing in apartments where child- , ren are not wanted are not a good foundation for this nation. We can get along without war memorials and Ouija-board fact- ories but we cannot get along without home owners. More than any other drive we need a great national campaign for home-owning and home- building. A real estate mortgage is a sign of thrift and progress, but a chattel mortgage on a motorcar is not. Young men and families who live in rented houses should be encouraged to goin debt for a home. The “real people” that consti- tute the backbone of a nation are not the men and women who have won to the supreme heights of fame or fortune; nei- ther are they the smart people nor fashionable people; and nei- ther are they the ignorant, indif- ferent, lazy and often selfish and narrow-minded ‘rabble’. The real peoplethat are the stabiliz- ing influence in this nation is the great army of “folks” who believe in earnest work and ser- vice and maintain a_ steadfast devotion to the highest ideals of citizenship. The supreme court has decid- ed that the $75,000 salary of the, st president and the $12,000 salary of supreme court judges are ex- empt from payment of income tax. The same court decided that the salary of a earning more than year, or a married per year, is subject to tax. Why not let these “common” people decide whether this tax is con- stitutional? And this reminds us of Chief Justice Jay’s sage remark that “law is a very unjust distribution of justice.” Moscow Mirror. Five-dollar wheat may be ex- pected before the 1921 crop is harvested. Louis W. Hill, chair- man of the board of directors of the Great Northern railroad, said in Seattle last week. He ex- plained it has been impossible for growers to hire enough men =\to plant the crop and that they would be hampered by lack of labor at harvest time. We are farmers handicapped by lack of help and we do not grudge those who have a crop a good price but “Ach, Louie,” have a heart. ATTENTION FARMERS.
