There is one important feature Of the
meat boycott that will bear watching.
The Observation-Disclosures the results
less important than the lesson il Is
teaching. The determination Of the
people to take such matters in their
own hands is the important part of the
national movement
The trusts fear this phase of rhe
issue much more than the mere re-
duction in prices. 1t means that a
new order of things will arise.
In Fargo there has been little real
agitation-but many people have vol
UNFAIRLY cut out the use of meat. They
feel the packers are too greedy-that
the domination of the trust Is too
strong-and they resent the conditions
Many people believe the nation has
reached a great industrial crisis-and
that a new day is dawning. They
believe the time is coming when the
common people--the consumers-will
be able to force a square deal from
the gluttonous trusts.
1t may some time become impossible
for a few men to control everything
that makes for comfort and happiness
and prosperity for the majority of the
people.

WHAT ABOUT sURkE's woRDa

Was Governor Burke misquoted by
The Grand Forks Herald and the Far
so morning publication regarding his
denials of the resignation of Senator
Thompson and the appointment Of
Senator Purcell as his successor?
His friendly morning papers have
succeeded in placing the governor in
a most unenviable light. Were one
to believe their stories of his denials
there would be no escape from the
humiliating fact that the governor was
an outright liar.
According to their reports Of last
Friday and of Tuesday of this week
the executive claimed to know moth
ing, either OF the resignation of Thomp-
son or the appointment Of Purcell. The
Z Forum had the story of the governors
! action, in naming w. F. Purcell, last
Thursday and printed 1t. 1t has had
| other stories since Purcell was sworn
in Tuesday. This all shows-either
! that the papers, which claim to have
been friendly to the governor, malic-
iously falsihed-or else he basely
prevaricated himself.
The Forum leaves the matter to the
public. Its readers can grasp either
horn Of the dilemma they prefer.
Regardless, however, of whether the
governor did or did not deny the truth
! of The Forums report--it yet remains
( that he attempted to give the North
Dakota newspa pers-friendly and I'M
| friendly--the worst throw down of re-
cent years. His action was despicable
to the papers that had befriended him
in the past-and petty to those against
which he was embittered.
The resignation of a u. S. senator
and the appointment Of another is a
matter of great importance to the peo-
| pie of the state. To suppress the news
as would have been the case had not
The Forum published the truth in the
matter-would have been dastardly.
The governor has made a lot of bull:
since he assumed his official duties bu
his latest childish action regarding thu
senatorship js among the worst.

newspaper man In the state--and many
of the editors will no doubt resent hi
evasion and subterfuge-or worse.

crecy and deception ana to give it,

"WlLT-PRooF FLAX.
(By I'll. F. Bolley.)

II has come to my attention that
there is q large demand for the So
called wilt-resistant fax Farmers OF
this state and OF the northwest are not
only making many requests to this
station for the seed but am informed
bv persons In the seed trade that they
are also receiving numerous requests
for wilt proof fax" 1t is needless
to say that there probably Is no such
thing as an absolutely wilt proof
strain Of fax seed. Furthermore, it
may be said that there Is very small
amount Of the wilt resistant flax with
which the department of botany of the
agricultural college. and number of
farmers have been cooperating with
a view to increasing the seed.
1t is an unfortunate thing that
there are many dishonest people in
the world, and during the last three
or four years much fax seed has been
sold in the northwest, the purchasers
being lead to believe that they were
buying not only high yielding flax"
but q wilt proof flax The farmers
who bought that seed and grew it on
land that was not flax-sick never
found out the difference. That is, any
ordinary fax will grow a good crop
IL the ground does not contain the wilt
producing organism.
The result Is that many of these in
nocent purchasers are now selling
wilt proof" or wilt resistant fax
simply because they were told it was
resistant or wilt proof seed which was
sold to them. This statement is made
simply to call attention to the fact
that the possibility of procuring wilt
resistant fax is as yet much in the
experimental stage. There is in the
state OF North Dakota less than q
thousand bushels of fax seed which
has been bred for the specific purpose
of resisting fax wilt. 1t is possible
that eventually this work will prove of
even greater success than anticipated.
but those people who are knowingly
taking advantage Of those who desire
to improve their crops are not worthy
to he called seedsmen, nor the honor
able name of farmer.
Now that the method of procuring
this wilt resistant fax is comparative
ly well known 1t is possible that
eventually many farmers will be able
to develop seed of high wilt and rust
resisting power, but for the next two
or three years IL will be wise to pur-
chase such seed only in small amounts
for trial uoon wilt-sick soil, after
which, if 1t is resistant, they can de-
velop all they want very quickly, and
their home grown seed will be much
better for their purpose than any
they could have procured elsewhere. II
they grow it on wilt-s'ck land and
succeed, they will know that it is re-
sistant. Farmers should cease being
lambs in this matter OF purchasing
seed with high sounding names. Or

less than silly to pay two or three dol.

Mr.. A. says Mr.. c. said is wilt re.

Anyhow, remember that a small
amount will do for trial and, If 1t /.
right, you can soon have q lot. Grow
