ADVERTISEMENTS vz {rozen cazfl stalkq A 1| "' =] B eed GreenmE ESIDES giving you green feed the year ’round, the Guaranteed Unadila Silo saves 30 per cent to 40 per cent of the beef-build- ing and milk-producing value of the corn crop that is ordinarily wasted when stalks are allow- ed to dry and freeze in the field. Turning your stock out in the barnyard in the dead of winter and feeding frozen shock fodder is costing you hundreds of dollars in lost profits every year. Feeding green ensilage in warm barns in blizzard weather not only protects the health of your stock, but adds weight and in- creases the milk flow. * Build a Guaranteed Unadilla Silo for Permanence and Satisfaction The Unadilla Silo, the only permanent wood silo, is posie tively guaranteed to stand up for ten years in every weather condition, except cyclones or tornadoes, or we will rebuild the silo immediately, absolutely free of charge.

MORRIS, EDITOR Leader readers know that interests opposed to the fundamental reforms necessary to put agriculture on a pay- ing basis have persuaded many of the _advertisers who use other farm papers to refrain from using the Nonpartisan , Leader. This campaign against the Leagder, because we are fearlessly sup-. porting the program that progressive farmers are organized to get, has been more or less an underground cam- paign. It has remained for the Weekly Kansas City Star to come out brazenly, in a circular to advertisers which has fallen into our hands, with the flat proposition that advertisers ought to use only the columns of farm papers which fight the Nonpartisan league, and which ‘thus @are opposed to the things that every thinking farmer knows must be done. The Weekly Star circular is a most " remarkable document. It tells adver- tisers that “no state farm paper and no farm magazine published or circu- lating in Kansas,” except the Weekly Star, has attacked the organized farm- ers. For this reason, it tells adver- tisers, the Star ought to get more ad-- vertising' patronage. ' The circular is not intended for readers of the Week- ly Star, but for its advertisers. There is ample reason why the Star has not printed in its own columns the fact that it is soliciting advertising patron- age on this unfair and contemptible basis—on the basis that it ought to be rewarded by advertisers for stabbing agriculture in the back. The circular informs advertisers that the Nonpartisan league “contem- plates state ownership and political control of such utilities as * * * stores and newspapers,” and that the organized farmers’ program “means state ownership of farm lands and communistic farming.” These false- hoods have largely been abandoned by the opposition to the farmers in most states, but the Star believes they will still be potent in attracting dirty dol- lars of unscrupuleus enemies of the farmers into its coffers. The Star tells advertisers that the Nonpartisan league “joined last summer with the most radical element of organized labor in forming a new political party known as the Farmer-Labor party”— a harmless enough charge but one which shows that the Star is willing even to lie about well-known facts. This conclusive evidence that adver- tisers are being influenced and intimi- dated to withhold -patronage from your paper and to give it to papers that are fighting you, will, we think, strengthen the purpose of our loyal readers to continue to buy from those advertisers who do NOT succumb to this propaganda, and who DO use the Leader. To offset such intimidation of a(.ivertisers, we must show them that it PAYS to use the columns of papers that are true to the farmers—that the readers of such papers will go out of their way to buy from its advertisers. And we can prove that to them only if we have the continued hearty co- operation of you folks on the farms. Buy from our advertisers and .tell them WHY you do. Tell other adver- tisers why they, too, should advertise in a REAL farm journal. We still have just a few cartoons by Baer and Morris left. -As long as they last our offer holds ‘good. We will mail one to any reader who sends us a copy of a letter he has written to an advertiser who does NOT wuse the Leader, telling the advertiser why he should place his advertising in this paper. t ADVERTISEMENTS Army and Navy Goods TARPAULINS AND TENTS Tarpaulins, each, from $12.00 t0 seeeeeeas $ 18.00 We Have All Sizes and Classes of Army Tents for Sale A HARNESS 500 eets of brand new 2-inch heel chain U. 8. ambulance - harness ‘with breeching; special price while they last, per set ..... $65.00 U. 8. cable trace harness hames, one- lines, %-inch bridles, special price, BOL oeieiciicesiinecnanseniinansans 1%-inch breeching_ harness, eather, 11g-inch lines, per . 5. government artillery lead harness, slightly - used, 1%-inch traces, 27-foot lines, %-inch blind bridles, per set .... 45.00 Second-hand leather halters, good as new, per dozen .....eeene. ] MISCELLANEOUS mess S R G T S A ts, each .. «76 1917 issue canteens, each .76 New hip rubber boots, per pair e 4.00 New U. 8. leather saddle ‘bags, per pair ... 4.50 Government leather shell hags, .+ «8.
