Dependablllty DE LAVAL Now that “dog days” are with us, it is no ~ time to bother with a balky cream separator. Dependability in a cream separator is es- pecially necessary in the summer when the milk should be taken “care of in the shortest possible time. The DE LAVAL Cream Separator is de- pendable, and with or- dinary care it will easily last a lifetime. The DE LAVAL capacity rating is de- pendable. Each size exceeds its advertised capacity under ordinary, and even under unfavorable conditions. De LAVAL Service is dependable. Fifty thousand agents the world over see to it that DE. LAVAL Separators are properly set up, operated and taken care of. And, above all, the De Laval Company is dependable—the oldest.and by far the largest cream separator manufacturers in the world. More DE LAVALS in use than of all other makes combined.

Baer saw the result of the June 26 North. Dakota referendum election, which finally cinched. the farmers’ program passed by the farmers’ legislature last wmter he drew the cartoon which appears on the cover of this issue of the Leader and called it “The Light Bearer.” The first .League state has again demonstrated the efficiency of the bal- lot as a weapon of the common people, when the people are organized and have an independent press supporting them. North Dakota is the light bearer for the oppressed everywhere. They see what North Dakota has done and they have hope. At a time when the world is rocked by unrest and revolution, when the masses everywhere are looking ahead to a broader life, minus the social inequalities and the exploitation which have become entrenched even in our own “land of the free,” hope of the workers and toilers and producers has found a new star— has seen the possibility of progressive reforms and a “new - day,” freedom under the law, by the peaceful and constitu- tional means of the ballot. That is the big idea that John Baer : how it happened so graphically presents on our cover this week. ~. DOCKAGE = Class Hatred THE OTHER DAY I went into A HOTEL in our t.own. AND IN THE lobby A LOT OF portly gentlemen WHO NEVER DO much of anything EXCEPT REI{D ;ll tl:e lies THAT ARE PUBLISHED in the KEPT PRESS and report them TO OTHERS. And PRETTY.

THAT FARMER ; THAT IT WAS a mce day AND THAT PROSPECTS were good FOR A CROP‘ A:’ld tlxen he SAW PINNED ON the ‘rube’s coat A BUTTON that sald “WE’LL STICK ? And he started TO TELL THE farmer that HE SHOULD HAVE more intelligence THAN TO BE:A éociélist OR A BOLSHEVIST or anarchist . (Contributed) OR A DISLOYALIST or a lot OF OTHER tl:ings. I c‘an’t remember. THE FARMER DIDN’T say much OF ANYTHING but 1 knew : HE WAS THINKING a lot OF THINGS that he dldn’t SAY and he walked out of THE HOTEL and I FOLLOWED HIM and he got into HIS BUGGY and drove away FOR IT WAS about CHORE TIME down on THE FARM, and I watched him DRIVE ALONG a;ld ;s -HIS BUGGY WHEELS went AROUND AND AROUND 1 got MADDER AND MADDER, and BY THE TIME he was OUT OF SIGHT ru tell you 1 WAS PRETTY SORE at that FARMER FOR stirring up CLASS HATRED, - I THANK YOU. = FARMER JONES SEZ: “If our $16 can make these Charlie ’Patterson suckers howl ez hard ez they - do, think o’ the noise they’d make if we had to pay ez much to join ““the.

The witness admitted that she was the wife of a burglar. “And you knew he was a burglar when you married him?” the lawyer asked sharply. The woman confessed that she had. “Then why did you marry lum 22 the lawyer demanded. “Well, you see,” replled the womanv £ tartly, “I was gettmg ‘old, and I. had . to choose between a burglar end i »lawyer i &~
