GENERAL SERVICE co. WIN
BEFORE JUSTICE WOLF

Little has been heard of the Farmers
General Service Co. the past year. fol-
lowing the exposure of its methods by
the PRESS. the Stock, Farm and Home
and Prof. E. F. Ladd's analysis of the
medicine chest. The following dispatch
from Lidgerwood shows some farmers
are still in trouble over their contracts
with the company:
"Lidgerwood. N. DIN 1911 some
smooth men worked this part of the
country and induced a lot of farmers
to sign up a contract with the Farmers
General Service Company of Minneapo-
lis. which was represented to be a CON-
pany that acted as agent for the farmer
in buying and selling such goods as the
farmer wanted to buy or sell. As q bait
to induce the farmers to sign up. a pre-
MUM cabinet containing a lot of sup
posed veterinary remedies was shipped
to the farmer, but these have not proved
to he what they claimed to be. Prof.
Laid has tested them and finds them
practically worthless, not one of the lot
complying with the laws of the state.
The notes. Of course, were sold as
6UUu DIS lucy COUlu Uc luIuCU duU lllc
present holder. II. H. Peterson, brought
the suit against five farmers. but when
the farmers appeared in the cases to
fight them four were dismissed. The
Ease of L. S. Tobias of Herman town.
ship was tried.
The defense was that the note signed
by Tobias was not q negotiable note.
that it contained the words, this note
is not negotiable and that being the
case, the defendant was entitled to
make any defense he might if the orig
inal holders has brought the action.
After hearing the parties Justice
Wolfe decided in favor of Peterson
and against the farmer. The case will
be appealed to the district court and
tried again at some term to be held
next year."
The PRESS was the only paper to
stay with the people in this matter.
Other papers which started in bravely
to tell of the company's methods sud-
denly became silent. The PRESS was
threatened with a libel suit in which
preliminary steps were taken in a de-
mand for retraction, but this paper re-
fused to retract.
So far as known the company has not
been able to collect any of it's numerous
outstanding notes with farmers in this
part of the state.
