his farm at Mt. Carmel, which for
a year past has been occupied by Chas.

return the house was all in flames and it's
total destruction but awaited their ar
rival Nothing was saved and the Rich

Attention of local farmers IS directed
to mass convention of North Dakota
farmers which meets at the court house
in Grand Forks on the 9th day OF
March at ten O'Clock n. M, for the pur-
pose Of organizing State Grain Grow
ers Cooperative Association, and TO
prepare to defend their interests by
engaging in the new business feature OF
handling their own grain and other farm
products, and the securing better prices
for the same at local and terminal points.
United action in this way Is necessary
in order to resist the combines that have
been robbing the farmers in the past by
controlling the local markets, and fore
ing them to part with their products at
less than their just values by the system
OF .'grades" and "dockaae."
