Pa, ADVERTISEMENTS Investigate this Farnmi Truck TUDIED misstatements #| about the Nonpartisan league, made by the Country Gentleman, a pretended farm paper which circulates more ex- tensively in the cities than on the | farms, have drawn 4 storm of protest from such farmers as have seen them and know the facts. In an editorial called “Blessings and Brightness,” the Country Gentleman makes false statements about North Dakota taxes. In an article called “Coming Through,” the League is charged with being allied with the I. W. W,, disloyal, working toward class hatred, etc., etc., while the article it- self is designed primarily to create class hatred by pitting the farmer against the laboring man. Following are quotations from a few of the many letters received by us on the subject: George Cartwright of Cleveland, Ohio, wrote the Country Gentleman: “Your editorial reminds me of a prominent Cleveland man’s statement: ‘I read the Saturday Evening Post to keep informed on what the pirates want the people to believe) If Mr. Townley is not given space to reply to your editorial your readers can only conclude the Country Gentleman is conducted for the same purpose. * % * When you have any further roasts to hand the Nonpartisan league it is to be hoped you will have the .decency to print both sides, as the Literary Digest recently found it nec- essary to do to keep up the appearance of being fair.” FARMER RESENTS ADVICE ON POLITICS J. S. Jossiason of Roggen, Col, wrote the Country Gentleman. In a letter to us he says:-— “I believe the signs of the times are very hopeful when ‘national agrieul- tural papers (like the Country Gentle- man) use up so much valuable paper and keep us farmers informed as to the proper political belief we should have. I sometimes wonder why they don’t spend some time and money I_‘OOK before yon leap. Don’t bu H a farm truck at amy price ti you see and know about the meaw 1920 model 48, worm-drive, 2-ton Dearborn. It’s a world beater for strength, lightnessand economical service. Performance beats prom- ises—hard facts prove D TRUCKS give the world’s lowest hauling costs. They can’t help it. They are 500 to 2,000 pounds lighter than any worm-drive truck o equal ca- pacity. This means more power for the /Joad and speed on the road. The Dearborn will carry more tons more miles at less cost per mile on gas,oiland tiresthan anytruckmade. The new scientific construction gives more strength than needed. And the steadiest day in and out service is insured by world standard working units. Save on first cost—running cost and repair cost.

It is our duty to try to climb up to a higher standard and not try to pull our brother down .to our standard. Farmers and wage- workers are not organizing to get something for nothing nor to get more than belongs to them.” John F.

Currie, editor, repeating untruth- ful statements in regard to North Da- kota taxes, the attitude of the League on the war, etc.; and adding that a Mr. Pickett of the magazine staff had been sent to North Dakota to write a new series of articles about the League. ~Commenting upon the untruthfulness of the “facts” already cited, Mr. Ford says: “How fair and impartial these articles are likely to be can be imagined from the ex- treme partisan tone of Mr. Currie’s letter.” Besides these letters the Leader has received letters from as far east as New York, from as far south as Okla- homa, -and numerous . letters from Minnesota, North Dakota and other League states. Most of our corre- spondents say they have written the Country Gentleman, demanding that that paper stick somewhere mear to the facts in its future articles about the League. The editor of the Leader also has written the Country Gentle- man, pointing out in detail the mis- statements that were made about the League, but thus far no step has been taken by the editors of the Country Gentleman to correct their misstate- ments or to apologize. - PREVENTING GARLIC FLAVOR Dairymen and creamerymen in many states are troubled every spring by garlic or onion flavor in the milk. This is due to the cows feeding on garlic or wild onion, one of the first plants’ to start in the pasture in the spring. There are two ways of pro- tecting the milk from garlic flavor. First, prevent the cows from obtain- ing garlic; and, second, manage the " herd on garlic pasture so that there will’ be the least possible chance of getting the flavor in the milk, Often the garlic is found only in one patch in the pasture, and this can be temporarily fenced off and pastur- ed with.other animals not producing milk. Where garlic is scattered all over the field it will be lmpossible to keep the cows away from i, but by remov- ing them to some other field three or four hours before each milking the flavor will be reduced to a minimum. The odor in milk is strongest from cows which have just eaten garlic, and the odor is reduced as the time between the eating of garlic and milk- ing is increased. In case no garlic-free pasture is available it would be advis- able to drive the cattle to the bamyard three or four hours before milking and feed them on hay and silage. MEAT CONSUMPTION That the farmers are the chief pork and poultry consumers, when a com- parison is made on a per capita basis, while the city dwellers eat a greater proportlon of beef, veal and mutton is shown by the estimates of the per capita consumption of each kind of meat and poultry by the urban and rural population, - which have just been completed by the bureau of crop estimates. This is the first adequate information concemmg the meat con- sumption of various sections of the country and of the city and country population that has ever been ‘obtain- ed. The total meat consumptlon per capita is 9 per cent greater in the country than in the city, and excess in varying degrees is found in every one of the customary geographie divi- sions. Beef consumptlon is nearly two-thirds greater in the clty than in the country:: PAGE TEN Mention the Leader When erhng ‘Advertisers Ditghes Terraces i, KILL QUACK ' WITH THE Kovar Quack Grass Killer and Alfalfa Cultivator Thomnz%!y tested on me = Tndorsed by medeulferi w4 experts: and thousands oo iy satisfied usen.
