lution commending their Nonpartisan assemblyman, sent a petition to their .state senator urging him to work and vote for the unemployment prevention bill and also petitions to United States Senator Lenroot and Congressman A. P. Nelson urging them to fight against the vicious sales tax bill. So far it is the only club in the state, but its en- thusiasm is unlimited.” FROM KANSAS Editor Nonpartisan Leader: While out in the yard an agent walked up to me and asked if I would resubscribe for his paper. I told him “no,” as it pretended to be against privilege, but worked against the farmers organiz- ing. Commercial clubs aid this, but would" not allow the Nonpartisan league the same privilege. “Oh,” he replied, “we are not against the farm- . ers co-operating but must stop this so- cialistic idea.” Then he told how the fieague was bankrupt and even the farmers of North Dakota were repu- diating it. He soon found out I did not believe him. The Leader keeps me better inform- ed on current events than any paper that comes to my table. A person should be just as careful in his invest- ments for society as for himself. In fact, when we are investing well for society we are investing well for ourselves. The women in the League clubs are doing this and I predict are much better homemakers for it. Cir- cumstances force me to be in Arkan- sas City instead of working shoulder to shoulder with the farm women as I would like to do. Let us work for truth and justice so when the great scorer comes to write against our name- he writes not whether we won or lost but how we played the game. MAMIE SCHELLENBERG. Arkansas Clty, Kan. A Man’s Message to Women Farmers’ Wives Must Organize to Win Independence, Says Leader Correspondent DITOR Nonpartisan Lead- er: Kansas has white slave farmers. What has to farmers? Do they own any flour mills of Do they have a grain ‘their own? grading law in force where farmers receive pay for foul seed in their wheat? Does Kansas have a twine plant of their own? Does Kansas have a soldiers’ bonus of two years’ standing? Does Kansas save the tax- payers thousands of dollars on their state printing? Does Kansas have a “farmer governor? 4+ North Dakota has all the above. Does Kansas have 2 far ier-owned terminal elevator? Does Kansas manufacture her own twine? Does Kansas manufacture mowers, hay- rgkes, self-binders of her own? Does Kansas have a farmer and labor-own- ed daily paper? Have Kansas women awakened to the fact that they are toiling for the middleman’s wife and educating the nonproducer’s children? Minnesota has all the above, and women have a state federation of women’s clubs, all due to A. C. Town- ley starting at the bottom of the lad- der and working up. To hear A. C. Townley speak is to know him. The grain gambler is his worst enemy. Kansas got that belongs . Millions have been used against him. He is the true leader of the farmer and laborer. Women, go to hear this ‘man speak. Take your children along. Big business and middlemen’s sons would like to drive him from the earth so they could live off you farmers. They see you-as cattle. Your hides are valued as a cowhide. If you don’t believe it turn out 200 strong to a grain gamblers’ banquet and see where your standing is. They tell you to go home and slop the swine. You producers of Kansas have no big cities to contend with like Minne- sota. Are you dead or just asleep?. Farm women, who .is your guardian? Wake up and demand with your hus- band a fair profit for you and your children’s labor and see whose son and daughter goes to college. You wear calico and produce a living for the middlemen’s wives dand dress them “in silk. While you are not respected they are the ladies of the land. Why don’t you Kansas women show some pep and organize for the good of your own families and neighbors and Kan- sas white slaves? I believe you have a heart and soul. Why do you labor for the nonproduc- ers’ families without pay? W. L. LAYTON. Independence, Mo. Grain Growers Are Denied Relief Oppress1ve Spring Wheat Grades Left Uncharnged by Sec- retary of Agriculture ECRETARY OF AGRI- CULTURE WALLACE has denied the request of spring wheat growers for changes in the federal wheat grades. At the recent hearings in Washington testi- mony was nearly unanimous for the changes. Since the hearing millers and grain speculators have been flood- ing- the department of agriculture with telegrams demanding that grades be left as they are. The bu- reau “experts” who drew up the fed- eral grades under Secretary Houston also insisted, as a matter of personal pride, that no changes should be made. Secretary Wallace announced May 16 that there was not time for suffi- cient- investigation of the subject this year and that he would make no .changes other than to eliminate the word “bright” as a requirement for spring wheat. make investigations later and that any further changes required could be made in txme for the 1922 crop. He said he would " Inasmuch as suéh “investigations” would be in charge of the bureau “ex- perts” who designed the present grades and who influenced Secretaries Houston and Meredith to retain them unchanged, in spite of the unanimous opposition of the grain growers, little is expected. to result from Wallace’s promise to open the matter again. The present grades have been op- posed by farmers ever since they were put into effect. The Minnesota and North Dakota legislatures have twice. declared their unfairness. The Uni,t- ed States senate committee on agri- culture during the war called for their repeal and the food administration ad- mitted their injustice by disregarding them as much as was possible.

It combats film One object is to fight the film— that viscous film you feel. This is the teeth’s great enemy. It dims the teeth and causes most tooth troubles. Film clings to teeth, gets between the teeth and stays. "The ordinary tooth paste does not effectively com- bat it. So night and day it may do a damage which few people have escaped. It is the film-coat that discolors, not the teeth. Film is the-basis of tartar. It holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the acid in contact with the teeth to cause decay. Millions of germs breed in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhea. Despite the tooth brush, these troubles have been constantly increasing. New methods now Dental science, after diligent re- gearch, has found effective film com- batants. Able authorities have am- ply proved them.
