And it came to pass as the harvest season drew nigh that a farmer drove into the field with his wife (because he could not afford a hired man) to husk corn. And his heart was fairly light because the crop had never ap- peared better and because with this corn he expected to meet many press- ing debts. Each night thereafter also he multiplied his—probable yield by the market price and replanned the distribution of his income. _ The price of the first day paid all the bills and allowed a Ford car for light marketing. When he had seen the price of the second day, he dis- missed the Ford as a happy dream. The third day he was able to just pay his interest and, as he said to his wife, “break even,” which she well knew meant doing without any new clothes and field work for another year for herself. b During the course of the fourth day he threw an ear into the wagon with force to express his feelings and turn- ing to his wife said: “Mary, we can’t make out next year without a second mortgage. All of this corn must be hauled in as soon as it is dry because of the way that tricky banker has timed his interest and the whole crop won’t more than cover his interest at today’s price. We’re being robbed of our eye teeth and it isn’t plain crooks that’s doin’ it either.” ; His wife, however, went on husking corn without showing sympathy, for she felt that he had long had a lesson coming to him. That night he went over to tell his FARMER NAILS A LIE Ray, N. D. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I am sending in my ballot on Mr. Townley and it would have gone in sooner except that I have just re- turned from a six weeks’ visit. I inclose two clippings from the Minot Messenger, one of which tells how much more money the banks have now than they had a year ago—the increase for the state banks alone be- ing $34,102,927.06. Six weeks ago the kept press was telling us farmers that Townleyism was driving all the money out of the state. But at that the politicians and their kept press have done us a lot of good. We never could have done what we did in so short a time without their asgistance. ) C. BALDWIN. To the significant figures pointed out by Mr. Baldwin, the Leader would like to add the following table show- ing that since the League began work in North Dakota per capita savings have increased faster there than in any other Northwestern state: Incr. - State 1918 1914 pct.

Before the farmer had gotten half way through his story, using a num- ber of ~expressions common only be- tween men, the wise man interrupted him by remarking, “Splendid! Splen- did!” and showing pleasure much out of keeping with a story of large debts " and corn prices in early fall. “What’s splendid about being rob-- bed?” asked our farmer, a little pu out. - “Why, man, you KNOW you've been robbed! Think how much worse it is to be robbed and not know it, as you have been all these years.” “Why didn’t you tell us before of this robbery ?” the farmer broke in. “Tell you,” laughed the wise man, “why it has taken 20 years of rob- bing to wake you up. Only the pluto- crats running the markets could rob you sufficiently. “If I had left my farm to tell you and others what I knew, you would not have given me 30 cents; yet, I would need to live. More than that, if the plutocrats had prepared a party in my honor, you might have contrib- uted 30 cents’ worth of feathers. “No, you have paid high, but you are fortunate. Many have paid as much as you and yet died. without knowing—think of it—without know- ing that they were being robbed of half their Tabor.” FIGHTING FOR BEITER DAYS : Minot, N. D. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: We held a public sale on November 2 and I have located here to eke out a living until marketing conditions for farm products have been placed on a legitimate basis, and then back to the farm I go. I have only been here 10 days and fully realize that I am in enemy territory; but I am as game as little Belgium and expect to emerge as victoriously within a very few years. e I propose to wear my “We’ll Stick” button and those who do not like it can read the signs on the opposite side of the street as we meet and pass on the street. I am inclosing a slip re- questing a change in the address of my Leader. Yours very truly, J. A. VAN WAGENEN. IMPORTANT FARM CONFERENCE Washington, D. C., Jan. 13.
