In a recent issue, the Leader asked for a copy-of a -back num- ber of the Leader to complete a " file. So many of the Leader’s good friends answered that more than enough of the missing num- bers have been obtained. Let- ters like the following have been received with the Leaders that were sent in: ° ' Hatton, N. D. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: J am sending the copy of the Leader for which you asked. If it will be of any benefit to you, you are certainly welcome to it. I have all the Leaders from 1915 up until the last issue. E. G. BRUNSVOLD. Rhoda, Minn. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: In reply to your request, I am sending the issue of the Leader you asked for. As you offered 50 cents for the copy, I wish to state that I don’t want any money, and that I am glad that I had it to send you. I wish to state also that I appreciate your _ efforts in the interest of the great common people. M. O’LEARY. THE AUSTRALIAN VIEW : Washington, D. C. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I am a Labor member of the parlia- ment of New South Wales, Australia, on a brief visit to the United States. I am returning shortly for Australia from -San Francisco. During my stay here I have become intensely interested in the work of the Nonpartisan league in North Dakota —work which seems to me to follow closely the work and projected work of the Labor party in Australia. For the reason that you are doing what the Labor party in Australia has done and is doing, and that con- sequently the two organizations are in that way closely related, may I express the wish that you should ex- change with some of our labor papers over there and that your headquarters should begin an exchange of literature and correspondence with the Labor party of Australia? I am looking at this both from a- -standpoint of a member of the legis- lature and of a newspaper man. (I am past chairman of the Australia Jour- nalists’ association in New South Wales, a trade union of journalists, embracing. 90 per cent of the journal- ists employed on the daily newspapers of the capital cities of the common- wealth and a lesser proportion of the newspaper men on provincial papers, which during” its nine years of opera- tions has increased the wages and im- proved the working conditions of jour- nalists in Australia by about 90 per cent!) I should add that I have written to Walter Thomas Mills, whom I met in Tasmania and afterwards in New South Wales during his visit to Aus- tralia a few years ago. I wish I might get your platform and accom- plishments so far as they have been recorded in literature issued, because I believe this will be of great assist- -ance to us in our work there. And may 1 say, perhaps, the administration of the Labor party in Australia (we have. held office in the commonwealth par- liament and every state but one and now govern Queensland), may be of some assistance to you too. I will gladly reciprocate in any way posslble, and will be pleased to re- ceive and send correspondence on any subject of mutual concern. 1 regret that the necessity of re- turning to attend a session. of parlia- 1tmg North Dakota. : i D. MUTGH ment precludes the possibility of vis-- _'the worst mfested blrds. : EAST LOOKS TO. WEST Erie, Pa. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: I am glad to avail myself of the privilege of obtaining a copy of “The New Day in North Dakota.” All pro- gressive minds have been focused on North Dakota since the Nonpartisan league became operative. Its spirit, its aims, its fundamental principles are such as to appeal to the minds that are looking for the better day when the real laboring class shall re- ceive more of the fruits of toil than they have heretofore. In the face of what you are accomplishing, the reg- ular press is feeding its readers with false news and editorials. We know here in the East that it is to the West that we must look for reforms. H. N. BARTLETT. THE LABOR QUESTION Flint, Mich. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: The labor question has always deeply interested me. Now I look at the farmer as a laboring man who works with his hand and his brain. I believe with the Nonpartisan league that the farmer and the laborer have much in common. I believe that the farmer and the city worker are bound together with ties that can not be broken and that they now realize these ties and appreciate their mean- ing. . AMIL D. COOLYON. FOR MONTANA FARMERS Egeland, N. D. Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Learning through your paper that there are several Montana farmers burned out, I am able to offer work to two or three men who are good house carpenters. I am a farmer but have quite a bit of carpenter work to do. . 3 J. M. CLOSE. HOGS FOR PORK BARREL Farmers throughout the country are using improved hog-breeding stock.| . more generally than ever before, re- port specialists of the United States department of agriculture, as they are learning that the best stock yields the most profits, and hence are.more care- ful in their selection of breeding ani- mals.. Farmers, as a rule, seem to be pleased with the outlook for the hog ralser, and the indications point to a large increase in the number of litters to be farrowed next fall. Much trou- ble was experienced with the early spring litters because of cold weather at farrowing time and on account of -feed shortage and the high price of protein feeds, causing many stockmen to allow their brood sows to get into poor condition, with the result -that _ small and weak litters were farrowed. In the main, these farmers have learn- ed a costly lesson, and henceforth it is presumed that they will provide bet- ter housing and farrowing conditions as well as ample food of the right mix- ture for their porkers. - KILL LICE ON POULTRY Lice on poultry can be killed as fol- lows, states the North Dakota Agricul- tural college poultryman: Sodium floride’ (can be secured at drug store) is very effective against lice. It may be applied by the “pinch method.” Hold the bird on a table, apply a pinch of sodium floride next to the skin un- der the feathers, as follows: One pinch under the head, one on neck, two on back, one on breast, -one below vent, one on tail, one on each thigh and un- der each wing. The sodium floride can also be used as a solution, one ounce to one gallon and dip ‘the birds in so they are completly covered, so all parts will become wet. Squeeze the bird slightly between the hands to re-~ move the extra amount of water from the feathers so as to save the solution. Two dippings will clear the lice from ~Leader Classified Department “THE FARMER’S MARKET PLACE” - This is the place to advertise your stock, farm machinery, chickens, eggs, produce for sale and auction sales; to make your wants known and have them supplied. results come from Leader Classified Ads.
