T 18 BRGERFARN L SEEN N CONGRESS Agriculturists Smarting Un- der Low Prices for Prod- ucts, Says South Dakotan. Pointing to “alarm” in the east at the election of such men as Frazier, Brookhart, Shipstead and Magnus Johnson, Representative William Wil- liamson of South .Dakota sounded & “warning” that “unless there i a readfustment of factory, mill and farm product prices the farmer will @ssert himself politically with an ever-increasing determination,” in addressing the District of Columbia Soclety of the Sons of the American Revolution last night at the La Fay- ette Hotel. “The farmer is still the biggest single factor in our nation and with- out his co-operation and continued production our people cannot live,<” presentative Willlamson said. “His Prosperity and contentment is close- 1y finked with the well-being and happiness of our common country. In the past he has been our sanest influence. and he will continue to be ch if he gets a square deal. The armer is fuily conscious that the he receives for his wheat no just relation to what he must pay for his floyr; that the spread between the beef on the hoof d the beef on the block is too great, and that the pittance he re- ives for his hides is litile less than insult when compared with what pays for shoes. For him to have to buy @ suit of clothes or a ton of coal is u real calamity.

For years we lived on passion, our nerves were sorely tried, and now it is the fash- ion to let a crisis slide. The world is full of sorrow, of error and abuse, and still, today, tomorrow, we call for John D.’s juice.
