[3 : ‘Farm Papers” | Working Against Farmers’ Real > - Interests, Says Leaguer DITOR Nonpartisan Lead- er: I have been a reader of your paper for four or five years and have never written you to say how > I appreciate your ef- forts. I do not hope to say so now, as I have no words to express what I feel you have done and are doing for those that labor like slaves that they .. may have a hearth around which to - o gather and call their own after the ¥ day’s work is done. : \, Dead Air Space - A There never was a time when our 4 country grew so much, and it is Y claimed there never was a time when 80 many were either gone over or are ¢ -—hanging on a verge of the financial A precipice. Therefore, it would seem - that to grow abundant crops doés not get us anywhere. I think it is great pi the way you are exposing the gam- bling chamber of commerce of Minne- St v 3 apolis- and the way you are making clear the_ effort of big interests to shift, if possible, the entire tax bur- den to the man whom they think has little or no power to resist. But oh, those agricultural papers we farmers get! Their entire effort is political, though they wquld not ~have us know it. They only send us those sheets in order to get an ad- vantage that they can’t otherwise get and have us do those things politically which surrender us into the hands of ; our enemies. They will send one 20 v ; years for 50 cents. I have watched them closely for one word commend- . ing the Nonpartisan league, but there . is nothing but a covert thrust. Boise, Idaho. W. W. RUSSELL. _FROM THE COTTON BELT Editor Nonpartisan Leader: Your paper is an admirable publication. I am always glad to see a new issue in my mail. Keep up the militant spirit that pervades its pages. The farmer needs vigorous rousing -before he will act. You know, for instancc, that we cotton farmers have to sell our cotton at 65 to 70 per cent below cost of pro- duction and can not pay our debts. Yet I hear around me such phrases as: “Let’s quit howling calamity,” “Aw, shucks, in two years we’ll forget all about this,” “Anyway, what do you want? You know 40 cents is too much for cotton.” And at that time we read the item that the textile mills in Greenville county, S. C., recently declared a div- A idend of $1,000,000! And a lister (a e 3 farm tool that is used in this country : in place of the gang plow of “your country) that cost us $90 last year is listed this year at $115. 7 Massive 4x@ Fir Studs (3537 H-L-F Silos in Use) Direct to Farmers at Factory Price |- Why should a man build a single-wall silo for use in a cold country?
