Clothing Will Be Higher

cafes will see q material advance.
The price of clothing, therefore.
should be about the same this fall as
last, but next spring, look for the
prices to go up. There will be no
other way.
The factories are away behind with
their orders, and SO are the wooden
mills. Last fall, before the election,
the mills and factories being uncer-
tain as to the outcome, shut down
their works, and thus got behind with
their orders. The factories would
much rather not fill the Large orders,
as it will mean a loss to them In
many instances, but the wholesalers
are going to see that those orders
are filled, as they cannot now dupli-
cate THE clothing for near the amount
of money.

Why is an Educati0n2

The same reasons that make an cdr
cation desirable for the business and
professional man, make it equally If
not more desirable for the farmer.
He needs it to give him exact, scien-
tific knowledge OF his business.
He needs it to enable him to see In
his business more than mere labor
something that holds inspiration thru
life.
He needs it because of its social
value-it puts him on a better plane
than it's lack can make possible.
He needs it because of It's value to
himself. He is much alone, and the
more liberal his education, the more
pleasant will be his life.
He needs it because the business of
farming is becoming year by year a
business calling for high skill and
training. The agricultural school
can give much Of this training in less
time, and at less cost, than 1t can
be learned in the school of Hard
KNOCKS. 1lTNFf

(Talk prepared by o. 0. Churchill.
Assistant Agronomist, n. D. A. c.
Winter wheat gives promise Of be-
ing successfully grown In North Da-
kota, If given the proper conditions
and culture.
It has never been success at the
Fargo station. The reason for this
is that we have been trying to grow
hardy strain, and have not tried to
nurse it thru the winter. No protec-
ton has been given 1t. -
Sow only a small area until more
is known about how to best handle
winter wheat. Ten acres Is enough,
and five is better still.
Winter wheat should be stumbled in
or sown among plants that will give
1t protection thru the winter. A
single disc drill is best for this pur-
pose, as it will SOW it more deeply
than will the double disc.
Winter wheat should be seeded
by the middle of August, and not
later than the first of September. The
purpose of sending out this bulletin
at this time is to caution against
late seeding. The rate per acre
should be from 5 to 6 pecks..
Turkey red is the best variety.
Canadian seed is no better than our
home grown.
Seed is difficult to obtain. The
farmers seem to have contracted all
they have to the seed houses, and
their ads in the farm papers, and also
those of farmers who may be selling
direct to the buyer, should be watch
ed for.

C. A. Grow is back from a visit Ito

ago for his fall and winter line OF
clothing, he did not do any buying
i'm this line. However he inquired in
to the condition of 1.-The market very
closely in this line, and finds that ow-
ing to the recent tariff bill, which was
passed, all woolens will be advanced
considerably. For example, blue
worsteds have advanced thirty -five
per cent, and wholesale houses noti-
fled the dealers Of this some time ago.
Notwithstanding the fact that there
has been an advance, those who plac-

Grain Growers Being Robbed.

The annual mark down of prices OF
grain is now going on at the Chicago
Board Of Trade, this is in conformity
with the plans Of the gamblers and'dhe
elevator trust.
Before the days of the board OF
trade the method used to rob the
farmers of his toll was to take from
him by physical force, all OF the pro-
ducts of the sweat of his brow, leaving
him Just enough on which to live I'M
til the next crop. This was In the
days of the robber barons.
Today we have civilization, the meth
DDS of despoiling farmer are more
refined, the board of trade men figure
out about what grain grower needs
to carry him until next crop, then by
the use of lies, circulated in the press,
showing an immense crop produced,
the price of grain is manipulated to a
point that will deprive the producing
of profit, leaving him only SUBJ
sistence.
The question of dealing with this
problem has been fully worked out 10y
the society of equity, who have been
educating their members to pool their
crops, and market them at fair pro-
fit, by control Of the selling, so ad-
iusted that only the demand from day
to day is supplied.
While the equity members know
what to do there are thousands OF
grain growers who do not, II they
will not listen to what the society
teaches, perhaps they will pay atten-
ton to what men of national promln-
ence have to say.
Senator McCumber stated recently
on the floor of the United~States Sen
ate, that plan was on foot to plumb
er the producers of grain, and that
they must combine, use all of their
force as unit, stop the. dealings in
futures, aid relegate the gamblers to
jail if need be, but stop gambling they
must if they would prevent themselves
from being reduced TO serfdom.
The society of equity will guide the
farmer through the struggle and bring
him to the safe and honest market, for
his grain. ...s

Agricultural College Opens
College News Service.

Oh. J. Hughes, Reporter)
The A. c. will open for the fall
term the Goth of this month. Its
aim is to train men who shall be able
to meet the changing conditions In
agricultural and Industrial life.
1t gives full courses in agriculture,
civic and steam engineering, gener-
al science, and domestic science.
There is a strong and increasing
demand for men trained in agrlcul-
ture. This demand comes in part
from the United States government
service, in part from schools seek
ing teachers, and in large and in
creasing part from farmers owning
lands which they wssh, run at the
largest possible profit, while keeping
up the fertility of their land. The
pay for this line of work is better.
than for ordinary lines of teaching,
and much better than for most pro-
fessional service. .
The courses in engineering fit men
for surveying, and like lines or for
steam and gas engine work. Its
graduates are in constant demand,
and at good wages. 1t is a good
course for a man with mechanical
turn of mind, or for one who likes
the open. The future for one fol-
lowing either of the engineering
courses is very good.
The general science gives one a
general college training. 1t is a
good and strong course, but we rec
Commend that a man or woman take
one of the specialized lines of study,
as they lead directly to money
making goal.
The course in domestic science is
much like the others, save Tor the
training in sewing and cooking. It
is, in our opinion, the best possible
course open at the present time to
young woman Intending to earn her
living as teacher, or who wishes
-
an education In order to at herself
the better for home-msking. Well,
trained young women command sSefs
good salaries as teachers Of domestic
science In high schools, and the de-
mand will increase as time goes by:
These are some. of our main lines.
