D., September, 1917 Editor Nonpartlsan Leader: I see by the adviee in “The Farmer’s Wife” and many other patriotic people, that their patriotism seems to consist in giving advice to farmers and farm- ers’ wives, Now the fact is this: that the most of the farmers and their wives’ time has. been taken up with trying to save what little crop they have raised, and ‘they :are sick and tired ' of their advice about conserving food. ‘When they have mot enough to eat for themselves and no money ‘to buy more why are they asked to conserve? Had these advisors lived in Nomfh Dakota fTifteen years, and fought bliz- ; zards, bugs and banks all ‘the time they would save some of their adyvice for a more ‘convenient wseason. To give you_:one luustmtxon——and give it to you plain and.strainght—on our little farm of ‘one half ‘section we put $500 in gold into seed. We couldn't sell ‘the whole crop for $350, and this is an ‘illustration of tens of ' thousands. You see if we followed this up one more year our home would be gone'and it would be in the ‘hands of those who pay for writing such trash about_the farmers putting ‘in large crops. Cu'cumstances are such that we do Tot’ expect to ‘sow one acre of wheat, and “if this be treason, make the most of it.” J A SUBSCRIBER. WHEAT, CHEAP FEED Timber Lake, S. D., September 15. ' BEditor Nonpartisan Leader: g There is 'one side of the wheat ques- ;. tion that the price fixers, did not flgure on, or if they did, they -didn’t care, and that is, that at the present price of feed grains in many locallities, it will be cheaper to feed wheat to stock than an}thmg else, especxa]ly to ‘hogs. T.ast year i 7fed a great deaJ o‘f low grade wheat tp hogs, and many around heré: féd; mor¢ /than 1 did. The owner of ‘one uf thé 1ocal elevators fed :some either ;ground or whole. No one Qan ‘be. ‘blamed for this, as cotn was worth | about $1.35 and oats around $1. _\g..‘ ‘This yvear feed grain will be ‘almost impossible to buy; here, 's6 those of us. use wheat again.’ Of course it will not’ food, but it will be that much less tb make breaq from. If Mr. Hoover figures on an increas- he will b® mistaken, as I have seen ‘dozens of wheat farmers at threshing time, raise their hands and say ‘“never again” will they run a chance ‘of losing money ‘on wheat. As for my part, what little wheat T raised, cost me $3.25 per bushel, but at the ‘government price it will be worth ‘only $1.86 here, so my hogs will probably get it. As to mext year-I. have been forced to ‘cut down my. win- ter wheat “acreage to barelv enough to perpetuate my seed. ‘We like to help feed the world, but we can’t do it very long at 50 per cent loss. Tam a member of the Nonparti- | san league. g LOTIS LIDSTROM. .- WHEAT AREA WILL SHRINK Schafer, N. D., Sept. 4, 1917 Hditor Nonpartisan Leader: Since the fixing of the wheat prices, (by the Chamber of Commerce and others) you mo -doubt would like an expression ‘of either satisfaction, or dissatisfaction, from the_ producer, in my district. As a representative of the . people in,the Forty-first district I must say that I haven’t found a satisfied- farmer yet. ‘Our average vyield will be 4 bushels or less, 'and cost of produc- tion is $15 per acre. D Now then, at the fixed price, a.nyone can figure out our loss or gain, T am inclined to think that the 1918 wheat acreage will be less hy 75 per cent than this year’s unless the farmer is guar- anteed & profit. We have lost money farming the last two years and many can't continue “without assistance. We ' would also like to know why harvest--| ing machinery costs $220.44 for a 7-foot binder when ‘the ‘cost of production:| ' can’t be ‘over $75.00? s WE’'LL STICK Elkton, S. D., Sept., 1917. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: T don’t believe the wheat price set by the government is high enough, compared to what it costs the farmers to rajse wheat. Take for instance, the farm implements. - They have gone out of sight; the farmers can hardly buy them at such prices. Labor, thresher bills and nearly everything else that he needs on the farm are too high, ac- | cording to what he gets for his wheat. ‘The farmers are the strongest men if they all stick together and the rest can get along without them, and I be- lieve now is the right time to stick, MATHIAS ERSCHENS.
