Recently the St. Paul Dispatch published an insulting eartoon, picturing the farmer as hiding to escape Liberty Bond and Red Cross solicitors and the income tax collector. From the Dispatch’s point of view it was funny, of course. At about the same time the Salt Lake (Utah) Tribune published an editorial under the heading, ‘‘Criminal Cupidity,’’ -charging that farmers were ‘‘grasping’’ and unpatriotic. This editorial referred to the loss of much of the potato erop in Idaho through freezing, for which the farmers, and NOT THE RAILROADS THAT FAILED OR RE- FUSED TO FURNISH CARS, were blamed.

Farmers are grossly insulted by this picturing of a farmer in hiding while Liberty Loan and Red Cross solicitors and an income tax collector are calling at his farm. The inference, of course, is that farmers are disloyal—that they hide and try to escape making patriotic contributions to the government loan and the Red Cross work, and that they are dishonest enough to try to escape paying legitimate taxes. The St. Paul Dispatch gets out a weekly edition, called the Farmers’ Dispatch. We do not know whether they printed this cartoon in the weekly edition or not. We doubt if they did, as it was evidently intended for circulation among city people in the DAILY CITY EDITION of the Dispatch, and not for the farmers to read in the weekly edition, miscalled the “FARMERS’ "’ Dispatch. ] ) 3 Waied!

To show the falsity of the charge it is only necessary to ask this question: Are farmers such fools that they would attempt to hold their potatoes through frosty weather when they have no adequate storing facilities and when the potatoes would be bound to freeze? Because the editorial in the Salt Lake Tribune and the cartoon in the St. Paul Dispach are typical of what the Big Business press is printing almost daily to discredit farmers, especially because they have dared to organize politically in the Nonpartisan league, the Leader LUTE-FISK Soaked frem No. 1 Norwegian Vakerfish. 25-1b. tUD s.eeeiiiinnianiannad $3.00 50-1b. tub ........ oo 100-1b. barrel ..... ceene 200-1b. barrel ..........

Utah paper is as follows: CRIMINAL CUPIDITY (From the Salt Lake (Utah) Tribune) Ward comes from Idaho Falls to the effect that the farmers in that @ : vicinity. have lost 2,000,000 bushels of pctatoes by freezing. Were it not. for the fact that the country is in sore need of food-stuffs of all kinds, | most people would be. inclined to rejoice that the grasping grangers have sustained such a heavy financial loss. According to the story received in Salt Lake, the farmers refused to sell their potatoes at current prices when they were harvested. ‘When they discovered that the tubers were not going up ‘they attempted to rush their crops to market. It was too late. They had 'been counted out.and cars could not be obtained for ship- ment. The foss is'a sad blow to the whole country, for it will have a tendency to add to the high cost of living, and the only consolation to the consumers will be in the fact that the men responsible for it are out of pocket. The tendency among the farmers of the United States to keep their potatoes out of market in the hope of obtaining extortionate prices was observed by one of the Cudahys of the well known family of meat packers some time ago, and he expressed the opinion’that as an enormous crop of potatces was harvested this year, the farmers who 'held back would not receive to exceed 50 cents a bushel for the:tubers in the spring. Mr. Cudahy, however; credited the farmers with having sense enough to protect their potatoes from freezing, which does not appear to have been the case up in Idaho. e “Thy money perish with thee,” said the Apostle Peter to Simon the " Sorcerer, when the latter sought to purchase the power of the Holy Ghost, The men of today who are attempting to gather much wealth at the ex- pense of the great body of their fellows because the war gives them an opportunity to put on the screws, will make the same discovery as that made by Simon the Sorcerer, that gold-is not all-powerful. "Also they wiil find out, unless we are much mistaken, that their punishment will not be delayed until the day of judgment. | TRAPPERS ‘We buy for cash and pay highest market prices for muskrat, skunk, (7 mink, coon, opposum and all fur bearing animals, also for hides and Ginseng.
