what a Nebraska congressman would
like: Two or more persons, both quail
fed homesteaders. may make a joint
homestead entry not to exceed. 100
acres of irrigated or irrigable land, one
of whom may live upon the land, and
the other earn money for their joint
support away from the claim. Upon

on the land each of the entryman to
take half of the land. Neither can mort

would be possible for railroads and
other large companies to file their
clerks or other employees ON public

New York, Nov. 15-The case for

that the shots were fired from that

To the officers and Members of the
Farmers Union:
have always been in favor OF mis-
sionaries
The kind that the farmer now needs
most is the man, just one man, with
the missionary spirit in each county,
who will study the problems Of the
farmer and bring to their solution the
same zeal and fervor OF the man or
the woman who travels to distant
lands to convert the heather.
The farmer Is the greatest. the
most priceless asset OF America.
His problems are the problems of
the nation.
They cannot be settled by lecturers
or enthusiasts in convention halls
however. kind-intentioned or devoted
these gentlemen may be.
They must be solved by the man
who lives with the farmer the year
round. who sees him i'm gladness and
oOiioW, WhO can SHoW MIN now To
avoid the pitfalls of the demagogue,
and also of his own weakness and,
here and there. his suspicion and his
crcdulity.
Do YOU think there is one man in
your county who will put up with
your cussedness. as we'll as your no.
bility-for yor are strange mixture
/ of both; do you think there is one
man in your county who will develop
/ the courage to tell you the truth, not
once but all the time; who will stick
to you, even when you show signs OF
abandoning him?
That is the sort OF spirit needed tc
aid the farmers of America, wherever
located
The work may not pay much in
dollars and cents. But the man whC
cnlists In the cause may have as hi!
