The liquor business has been one of the chief causes of the high cost of living in Itasca county. It is practically the entire cause of our keeping of prisoners, county poor, etc.) It is mot the purpose of this article to abuse the saloon men or to blame them. Every man who voted for license is equally to blame. But it is to cadl their attention to the fact that in the near future the people of Itasca county will ask for the abolition of the liquor traffic within its porders, as the people of Aitkin county have done ,and to give them due notice to change their mam ty will be devoted to agriculture.

The boys will acquire valuable information on crops, live stock, etc., that would take years to |learn by experience. The course comes at a time of year when things can be studied from a field stand- point, and the work may be made very practical. The boys become enthusiastic centers of interest for the agricultural college, and may do valuable demonstration work for the college. They are made leaders in the boys and girls club work. Directly or indirectly they receive lessons in community life, co-oper- tion, sanitation, right living, clean sportsmanship and everthing which makes for efficiency and better citi- zenship. The camps will be under the man- agement of young men especially fitted for leadership of boys, and will be governed by a congress Rapids the letter part of this wek|made up of representatives from to make their home. Dr. Harrison iseach tent-full of boys. The camp River and Aitkin and many more towns have found that industrious farmers pay better than saloons. It is time that Grand Rapids, Deer River, Cohasset and other towns in Itasca county took the same stand on this question. The next election should see the beginning of the new order of things. Every public spirited man should foin in this movement, every busi- ness man, every working man. Af- ter 25 years of saloons, licensed in the belief that they were a financial aid, we find the county heavily im debt, taxes almost prohibitive, a long list of failures in business lar- gely due to uncollectible bills and a catalogue of crime and poverty that almost staggers the underetanding. We are greatly concerned with national and state politics. Reap- portionment, good roads, state land development, etc., are important is- sues but they depend upon the at- titude of the legislators. We have | waited a long time for state aid, |but there are some things we can do iat home toward helping to improve conditions and the first and most important is to put a stop to the waste that is going on through the saloons. When we make public con- ditions right at home, we will go a long way toward having them right in the state and the nation, Very respectfully, A. J. McGUIRE, Butter Preduction. The increase of the butter produc- tion of the state is one of the things which have interested the men who have the advance of the state at Each ir the land that provides for the dairy cow is growing richer while the farms that are devoted ex- clusive to growing and marketing grain in its raw state are growing poorer and less productive. The reason is not hard to discover for itis afact that with every ton of corn sold off the farm bringing from $18 to $20 goes $5.50 worth of fertility aton of wheat worth $35 removes $7.20 worth of fertility; a ton of beef worth at highest prices from $150 to $200 takes with it about $17 worth of richness,while a ton of butter worth today on the market of the world $600 takes with it only 49 cents worth of fertilixing ingredients, and by providing those nitrogenous foods which are necessary for great- est butter production—alfalfa, cow peas, soy beans fed in connection with ensilage—returns™to"the land with many times this amount
