A i el A 0 S B ; ;- the time for you to serve. ¥ R AT 7 e e —— N AN R DA M 3 Sl ADVERTISEMENTS .We want to get in touch with men who can put in their spare time for a few weeks, or their full time if possible, to get mem- “berships for the NORTHWEST FARMERS’ CREAMERY FARGO, NORTH DAKOTA This creamery is an excellent proposition for every farmer who sells cream. We are-incorporated under the laws of North Dakota, authoriz- ing the creation of co-operative enterprises, and are co-operative in every sense of the word. Each farmer has but one vote, it is owned by farmers, is operated by men who are selected by the farmer members, and it pays all its profits to these farmers upon a dividend paying basis. The one thousand odd co-operative creameries in Minnesota and Wisconsin are paying from 2 to 7 cents patronage profit, to members belonging to them, or from 2 to 7 cents more per pound than they can obtain by shipping to independent creameries. The five hundred odd members in this creamery have increased the capacity of their plant and plan to obtain twenty-five hundred additional members within a period of ninety days and at the same time secure the cream produced by these twenty-five hundred members, who now pay extra express charges upon their cream to Minneapolis, in addition to the profit made by the independent creamery that buys their cream. This co-operative cream- ery will increase its patronage dividend in proportion to the volume of cream it receives, the cost per pound to manufacture butter decreasing in proportion to the increased num- ber of pounds manufactured. . EVERY CO-OPERATIVE FARMER should devote at least a part of his spare time in an effort to develop co-operative enter- prises and this class of enterprise in particular, in view of the present high price of cream. The plan of acquiring memberships is by the co-operative method, the farmer wishing to join gives no cash, merely his note. The Creamery Company in_ turn applies and en- dorses upon this new member’s note a two per cent quarterly dividend together with patronage dividend earned each three months, thereby cancelling obligation within a reasonable length of time, assuming that you ship al your cream to your own co- operative company. . The members of this company look for prompt and co-operative action and are willing to pay for additional membershlps LPS. ADS ARE GOOD. THE WEATHER IS FINE!

Gentlemen: “(o Home and Slop the Hogs” That was what Big Business officials told the farmers of North Da- kota.. You know what those farmers did. Now Big Business in Minne- sota tries the same tactics. They tried it in Montana too but the attorney general protected the rights of the citizens of the state. Big Business is fighting the League with every weapon at its command. Will the farmers of every state do what the farmers of North Dakota did? Do you know what won the victory for the North Dakota farmers? ORGANIZATION—that’s the answer. And do you know what made the Organization? Townley and the organizers who went from farm to*farm up and down the state explaining the League to the farmers—GETTING THEM ORGANIZED. Do you know what success in your state depends on? ON ORGANIZATION. Do you know what is necessary for Organ- ization in your state? ORGANIZERS. Now we are down to bed rock. Its just like winning the war — there’ have to be generals and captains and all the rest of them, but most of all there have to be private soldiers—men to go into the trenches. And to get soldiers you have to have either volunteers or conseripts. So it is in our fight. Uncle Sam called for men to fight to make the world safe for democracy. We have to have the men, ready for the fight against the ‘enemies of democracy in the homeland. We are common soldiers in a common fight. We can’t conscript our men like Uncle Sam did his , .soldiers, nor can we depend on volunteers any more than Uncle Sam ‘could. So we must do what England and Canada and other countries have . 'done with their volunteers. Recruiting agents must go to every man and _explain to him his duty and enlist him in the fight. BE A RECRUITING OFFICER in this fight. "We need" you NOW is You can go to faraiers and tell the story of the League and show him what we CAN do with political power; what ‘we MUST do; what we WILL do. . We’ll furnish you the facts and figures to work Wl’ch You can make a hving out of the work and at the same time give Big Business a knock-out blow. ‘Write at once and tell us how much time you can give to Orgamzatlon Work. We will send you full particulars of how the work is carried on. . WRITE NOW—THERE IS NO TIME TO WASTE AND WE MUST WIN THIS FIGHT.

D, ........ TELLS ENEMY-A- FEW '‘FACTS . The writer of the following letter, sent to one of the anti-farmer papers, requests that it be printed in the Leader: Bench]and Mont. Edltor Farmers’ Dispatch, St. Paul I have read with interest and amusement your editorial in the Feb- ruary: 19 issue. Now, to begin- with, don’t you think you had better get busy and learn something yourself— not concerning the Nonpartisan league, for you already know it and fear its determined power and its human interest. I further say that ~you have either misinterpreted it or you are hired to fight it. - Do we not know that both private and govern- ment detectives have been. following this League closely since it first or- ganized in North Dakota, and that they say they can find no fault with it, and we know that if the private interests could get anything on the League that they would go the limit. I ask you, who are we to believe, the press or the law? You say that the Nonpartisan league proposals are thoroughly unsound. You know that is an old rotten, threadbare lie. What ‘gets me is that you keep printing such old rotten stuff. Why don’t you get something new. Furthermore, you surely know that the more you ad- vertise the League members or heads the more attention they will get, and the more attention they get the more popular they will become. Why try to make mountains out of mole hills? You might fool part of the people for a while but you will lose in the end, for this time the peo- ple.are going to win. Big Biz and all his money can’t stop them. Yours in the interest of the people, JOHN A. CLAYTON. BIG HONEY !IN ORNERY HORSES Y free book will amaze you.

I d®#’t understand why Brother Page is##&‘'antagonistic towards the Nonpartisan league as there are a great many. members of the League living jus@éund Grenora and such attacks wilFly cause re- sentment and nonsupport among them, and this will result in nonsup- port for business interests of the town; for if he has no subscription amongst the farmers there will be no use for the local merchant to adver- " tise in his paper.
