A Ne,y suindle ON Farmers.

An entirely new but highly successful
scheme to separate farmers from their
money has been worked in South Da-
kota during the past few months.
An oily CRATER calls on q farmer and
makes a bid for his land. The figures
are abEurdly low at first, but by de-
grees are raised as high as $50 an acre,
and the farmer consents.
Then the visitor explains that he is
only an agent, but that he can sell the
land at the price named If he owner
will agree to pay for advertising at the
rate of so cents an acre.
The "agent'' promises orally thai the
advertising money will not be payable
until the land is sold, but this stipula-
ton is not contained in the contract
that the farmer signs.
In a few days he receives a copy of
an ad and not overcourteous demand
for money. "
It is said that twenty-five agricul-
turists were caught with this bait in
Brown County and that one of them
gave up $500.

WHITMAN TO
OBSERVE RULES
PROFESSOR BRATTON DENIES
THAT REGULATIONS WILL
BE EVADED.

Whitman's attitude regarding the
held here last winter has long been
matter of both interest and speculation.
On account of the school being SO
hard hit by the rules adopted at that
time it was thought that the Mission
aries would try to dodge in order to
bolster up their teams. The following
letter written by Prof. w. A. Bratton
to the students Of the college removes
any such scepticism, however, and
shows that Whitman will take the
lead in enforcing the rules just as she
did in making them:
ITO Students of Whitman College In
terested in Athletics:
Il suppose you will have seen an ar
ticle appearing in the Spokane Chron-
icle. or copies of it in other papers,
which indicates possible disregard of
the conference rules by students and
faculties Of the institutions of the In
land Empire, have been instructed by
the authorities at Whitman to notify
you that any report whatsoever which
seems to indicate an intention on the
Fart of the faculty of Whitman college
to disregard either the letter or the
spirit of the conference rules is entire
" unauthorized, and not to be de-
pended upon. We believe that a careful
observance of these rules will greatly
benefit the athletics of our own institu-
ton and of every other institution in
the conference and it is our intention
that no student shall represent Whit
man in any branch of athletics next
year who is not eligible under the terms
Of the rules laid down. I sincerely
hope that you will use your influence
to keep every member of the Whitman
student body free from any tain& OF
professionalism.
with best wishes, I am,
Yours very truly,
"W. A. BRATTON,
Secretary"
