Wention the Lenlier 'When Writing Advertisers TR \ = —_— e U ‘THE FARMER 135 GETTING 50 HE CAN PICK THE. GOOD ONES FROM THE POISON VARIETY. * /}’/j///‘ = T\ S ~—Drawn expressly for the Leader by John M. Baer. BY OLIVER S. MORRIS, EDITOR Baer’s drawing shows a farmer gathering mushrooms. Any one gathering mushrooms has to be careful. Mushrooms are good to eat. A toadstool looks much like a mushroom, but ‘a toadstool is deadly poison. If the farmer is not experienced and by mistake gets toadstools instead of mushrooms, the family will be poisoned. N The drawing was intended by Baer to show that choosing your newspapers and magazines is much like gathering mushrooms—you have to be careful or you will choose the wrong kind and get poisoned. For it is a literal fact that the mind can be poisoned by reading matter written for a sinister purpose. It is as true as that the body can be poisoned by toadstools. The American farmer today, during this agricultural crisis, must have the right kind of reading matter. He must have the kind that gives him the real facts about conditions. He must have the kind that is edited and published in his interests, not in the interests of business, of banking or any other interest except the agricultural interest. It is a time when the farmer must face facts and know the truth. He can not risk being put to sleep by doped matter issued in the interests of those who are profiting frem present evil conditions. Now it is the ability of Nonpartisan league farmers to tell a mushroom from a toadstool, a REAL farmers’ paper from a camouflaged big business farm organ, that has made the League 2 power. If enough farmers will learn to tell mushrooms from toadstools, agriculture can be saved. The farmer will come into his own as soon as he KNOWS HOW—as soon as he learns to act INTELLIGENTLY with his brother farmers. But he must have facts and ac- curate information before he can do that, whether he is a Leaguer or not. He must have a clear and fearless diagnosis, or analysis, of what is the matter with farming, and he must understand the remedy for the disease. He must read papers like the Nonpartisan Leader and other League papers. Will you help the Leader get the truth to more farmers? You understand, we feel sure, that more farmers must be with you before you can hope for full success in your organized plams. The best way to get other farmers into your ranks is to get the Leader into their hands. Has the Leader a local circulation represcatative in your district? If not, will you help us get a reliable person in your neighborhood to represent us? We want such a person in your district, not only to help us put the Leader into new farm homes, but to have charge of our existing sabscription Hist and to call on persons whose names we will fur- nish. Can YOU do that werk for us? If not, call the attention of somebod who can help us to the following blank.—Adv. .
