Capital and Surplus $90,00000 | THE NONPARTISAN LEADER Under the direction of the editor of the woman’s page the Leader is conducting a eontest for farm women, wives and daughters of farmers, Prizes making a total of $25 will be a- warded for the best letter on the sub- ject of Entertainment. in Country Communities. ; This is to bring out the best ideas of North Dakota farm women on what can be done to furnish enter- tainment that will broaden the lives of those who live in the farms of North Dakota. The suggestions need not be confined to meetings or “shows.” They ean embrace library facilities, home amusements, ete.

The tendency of wheat traders to look upon the supply of grain in the United States as a surplus, and to be- lieve that the big wheat production of Canada will find a market first, was a feature of the general situation dur- ing the week ending March 11, al- though it was admitted that there is a big present demand, and ' wheat could be sent to Europe if ships were available. The American crop was restimated by traders to be 164,000,000 bushels in excess of what it was one year ago. The supply remaining in farmers’ hands was said to be the largest on re- cord, amounting to 241,000,000 bushels while elevators and mills are reputed to be holding 151,000,000. Speculators assert that this will prevent any rise in price in this country even should there be a partial crop failure here, as they predict, much of it will still be on hand after the next harvest.

This has been as our mechanical department was inadequately prepared and we did not hope to increase the Leader until our new press and stereotyping department were ready for operation. But, then, the advertisers insisted and we have done the best we could to satisfy all concerned; they know that the Leader reaches prac- tically every farm home in the state and the advertisers were anxious to get their messages to the farmers—so they would not wait. Read these ads before you buy articles -offered for your patronage. Then, too, we have been flooded with, “Please stop my ad in the Leader; I am swamped with letters and all sold out,” from the farmer Believe this? a few. samples from these satisfied advertisers: ; S : “Please-stop my ‘ad in the: Leader, for I‘am all sold out' of-my chickens. The Leader sure is the right name for your paper.: 1 had: .ad in a local paper that cost $1.20 ‘and , and the ad I had in the Leader-cost $1.05 and I am Jjust swamped: with - -orders; ‘am -all sold out and- orders still coming; 80 you see ‘what {he: Leader adv. means to me: I :send you' another/’—Curtis Treaster, Leal.: “Please_find check to cover my ad--Perchersn colt for sale—and stop that ad at once, as I have sold the colt.”—Henry Burris, Conway. “I was perhaps ‘one of the first ones to run an ad in-your columns, - and I will say for results it caw’t be beat, and I was made %o realize - that the paper reaches between 80,000 and 40,000 farmers, just the class I.wished to do business with.
