. . i } _ADVERTISEMENTS Wetix Hamess | The Walsh Harness hasno equal in strength, in length of life, in ease of adjustment, in fit, in beauty. or in any other way. 7ky? Because the Walsh Harness has NO buckles; NO snaps; NO billets; NO loops; NO holes in the straps and NO friction on the straps, It took nine years to perfect the Walsh Harness and every part of it has been tested in actual service at least two years. A setof Walsh Harness was shown on a draft team at the 1917 Wis, State Fair. At that great fair over 40,000 men said it was the world’s best harness. To buy the ordinary harness with its worse useless buckles, snaps, billets and loops is a waste of money. NO BUCKLES To buy a set of ordinary harness means that you are buying a harness where the rings cut the straps like a knife and where holes and buckle tonl_glues take away three-fourths of the real s of the straps. ~After you vse a Walsh Harness one day you will never again use a harness with buckles, The Walsh Harness is priced from $9.00 to $14.00 less (not moreg than thé old fashioned harness using the same grade of material. It is from3to S 3 a8 strong, requires no repairing and will give a farmer ._ ) about 35 years of hard service, It may be easily and quickly adjusted to fit any horse from 3T 1000 to 1700 pounds. Don't waste your money on buckles .nd snaps. Send for FREE MMustrated Book Today—not tomorrow. Use the coupon, Walsh Harness is shipped direct from factory—no middleman's profits to pay.

O. FOSS, LEADER STAFF CARTOONIST Ray F. Morgan, Haxtum, Mont., carries away the weekly award of $1 for the best amateur cartoon received this week. I selected Ray’s ca.rtoon, out - of the hundreds received, because the idea is good and because I like to see an occasional “rap” at the unneces- sary middleman. Now look at the cartoon again. Ray pictures the unnecessary middleman as a great big “hard boiled” highway- man with a “gat” in either hand. One of them keeps the farmer’s hands up in the air while the other one takes* away all his hard-earned profits. It’s all wrong, isn’t it? But—you will notice, there is help coming, help in the form of the Nonpartisan league. I know, and so do you, that this help will surely put the bandits on the run. . I think Ray’s cartoon is a dandy. Ray says: “I get the Leader every week and think it is a great paper. The cartoons are especially interesting. Last week I said in this column that all records for cartoons received had been broken. Take a look at this little cartoon, of myself, and you will get some sort of an idea of the bunch I get every week. The following names all deserve a place on the honor roll: Wood Lake, Minn.; John Horns, Buffalo, N. D.; Marie Hanley, Donnybrook, N. D.; Walter Gilman, Lemmon, S.
