D. Editor Nonpartlsan Leader: I came across an item today that reads as follows: “One sample weigh- ed 57 pounds to the bushel and the other 601 pounds. The lighter wheat produced 73.6 per cent of flour, vs. 75.6 per cent for the other. The gluten content of the lighter was 17.1 per cent, vs. 10.8 per cent for the other. The size of the loaf baked from 12 ounces of the flour from the lighter wheat was 204 cubic inches, vs. 167 cubic inches from the heavier wheat. “Now, based on this showing, and taking $1 per bushel for No. 2 North- ern wheat as the unit of value, the 57-pound wheat was worth $1.12 to the miller, vs. 98 cents for the 60%- pound wheat.” This sounds strangely like a quo- tation from one of Dr. Ladd’s reports, but is taken from an article by Rollin E. Smith, in the Minneapolis Journal of February 18 (early mail edition, back page). The above test was made by the Howard Wheat & Flour Test- . ing company of Minneapolis. Since 1886 this institution has been testing { flour for the Minneapolis millers. The article also asks: “How can the milling value of wheat be determined, except by baking tests of the flour from each particular lot of wheat?” and states that “if any man can find l the answer, the millers will unite with the farmers in calling him a business benefactor; and, incidentally the an- H swer will be worth about $1,000,000 a year to the discoverer.” If the statements made by Mr. Smith in the article quoted from are true (and it is inconceivable that the Minneapolis Journal should do other than print the truth about the mill- ers), it explains why the millers and the chamber of commerce, while con- tinually ridiculing Dr. Ladd’s reports, have never come forward with the figures to prove that he was wrong. All the figures they had in their pos- session proved that Dr. Ladd was ab- solutely correct. C. W. M’'DONNELL. IDAHO WHEAT STILL ROTS (From the Idaho Leader) When the Idaho Leader, several weeks ago, called attention to the fact that the Zaring Grain company had a pile of 25,000 bushels of wheat moulding and spoiling in the Arbon valley, the agent of that concern wired to the government food admin- istration that the Leader lied, that the wheat was not spoiling and would all be moved before May 15. On the first of June the wheat was still there. “But orders had been given -prohibiting any person from going into the field where the wheat was piled. "The Zaring Grain company is trying to bar investigators from that pile. The wheat still stands piled in the open, unprotected, and rapidly sprout- ing and mouldmg A grain dealer in Boise said: “The big fellows can profiteer by such out- rageous ‘methods. They can spoil wheat if they wish and mix it in with good wheat and then sell it for chicken feed and get 50 cents more a hundred for it. This spring T had. quite a little seed wheat on hand. If I had put a little mould in it, mixed up some barley and oats in it, I could have made 50 cents more a hundred on it by selling it as chicken or hog feed. But I turned it' back to the government because we need wheat. “It is almost impossible to believe that men would be so low as to de- liberately rot wheat for gain.” ‘The ‘mould " on the wheat in the Arbon valley would bring: more money than the good sound wheat. Milling wheat brings 3 cents a pound. Wheat that can be sold ‘as chicken feed and hog feed often brings 3% cents, ' ALFALFA HARVEST IN KANSAS Two, and sometimes ‘three, crops of alfalfa are cut in Kansas, where the value of this splendid fodder is increasing in favor. Nonpartigan league The farmers’ holds the proper credentials to entitle it to be classed as an “Organization With Teeth.” The highest compli- ment that can be paid to any organiza- tion of farmers is to incur the oppo- sition and hatred of crooked poli- ticians and crooked business. As long as farmers would trail along like a sandy land hog after a corn wagon, and follow the political prostitutes and vote AGAINST each- other and FOR incorporated monopoly, they were the salt of the earth. An organization that means noth- ing and does nothing is the kind of organization that will be patted on the back by big business and political seducers. The same may be said of any man that chooses to lead farmers’ movements if he pleases the incor- porated despots, set it down that he is not the proper man to head the farmers. Mr. Townley is certainly entitled to a vote of confidence by the co-operating farmers of America for he bears on his body the poison marks of political assassins. The same old game of persecution and slander is being waged on Mr. Townley' and other leaders of the League, as was made on every true reformer since the days of Jesus Christ. Shall we farmers join the cry of the mob? “Away with him, crucify him.” Any man, to be a real American citizen, full grown and fully deve?oped must be a nonpartisan. Party se@flxty in American politics' ‘has ent] roned incorporated monopoly and fitical autocracy, and now that the"' iwak- ened farmers of America arerying to rescue their beloved counte¥ from organized speculators and gamblers, they have to suffer persecution and be classed as disloyal. The same type of rulers and high priests hounded Jesus Christ to death, persecuted his devoted followers and afterwards stole the livery of heaven to serve the devil in. > The farmers are giving their young men without stint to redeem ‘the world from autocracy and poverty, but the “tollmakers of greed would starve our soldiers and our nation, that they may gloat in. ghioulish glee in vast profits made out of the blood and toil of our fighters and farmers. There is no or- ganization - having a more exalted mission than the farmerg Nonparti- san league The ‘patriotism of the farmers is unquestloned except in the minds of political: mncompoops and commeicial pxrates. PAGE TW!IN'!‘! An Organization With Teeth . (Judson Simpson in the Montana Equity News) Read the following tribute to Amer- Jdcan farmers by our president: “The toil, the intelligence, the energy, the foresight, the self- sacrifice and devotion of the farm- ers of America will, I believe, bring to a triumphant conclusion this great last war for the eman- cipation of men from the control of arbitrary government and the selfishness of class legislation and control, and then, when the end has come, we may look each other in the face and be glad that we are Americans and have had the privilege to play such a part.”— President Wilson. The good mother was subjecting the rebellious youngsters to the hor- rors of. the twice-a-week bath: “The water is too hot!” screamed the martyr. “No it isn’t, dear, just see here!” said the kind mother as she dipped her bare hand in the cruel fluid. “Well, it’s too cold, then!” roared the sacnfice, as he dxsappeared into the splashy deep.
