The Largest Farm In
come.
come.

This is not only a billion-do
country, but a ten billion one.
The cost of running the govern
ment is only 10 per cent Uf the
money the farmers receive for
products Uf the farm and range,
including fruit, live stock, poul-
try, eggs and butter. The fig
ures for the total have not yet
been made by the Department of
Agriculture, but it has issued
what it calls its final estimate of
staple crops, including such GER
erals as wheat, oats, barley, rye,
corn, buckWheat, flaXseed and
rice, and such other general
crops as sweet potatoes, potatoes,
hay, sugar beets, tobacco and
cotton. This leaves out a large
number of miscellaneous crops
running into the millions in value,
as we'll as fruit and garden truck.
1t also omits the value CT live
stock marketed, of butter and
milk, of poultry and eggs, am
ounting in the total to more than
half the farmers income. AS
the crops enumerated total in
value $4, $40, ,3O1 900, it is evil
dent that when the grand total
of farm revenue is figured uE for
the year 1918 it will exceed ten
billion dollars, the largest sum
ever received in one year by the
farmers of the United States.
These are the figures received
by the actual producers, at first
hand, and not those paid later by
consumers. What consumers pay
for these products is so much
more that to give them would
not seem to be talking on the
same subject at all. @ThG total
increase over last year is ap-
proximately 100000, 900, not
withstanding the Door season in
some sections Of the country be-
cause of lack Of rain in summer
and excess of rain in the fall.
This is due to higher prices.
Corn, for instance, which was
some 5OO,0OO,OOO bushels short,
has a value Of $168, 900, 900 more.
All the other crops also have an
added value, except oats, barley,
buckwheat, flaxseed and rice.
Cotton, the general crop over so
wide a section of the South, is
worth more than last year by
SIT, ,620, 900, and hay, also wide
ly distributed crop, is worth $40,-
500, 900 more.
1t must not be assumed, how
eyer. that these increased values
mean increased prosperity to all
farmers. Those who lost cora,
oats and hay and are being COM
PEELED to buy at high prices or
sell their stock, are not sharing
so much in the profits as their
fellow-farmers who were so for
tunate as TO raise good crops, or
to have such a diversity of crops
that loss of corn, oats or hay was
compensated for by gain on 9th

ARE
GIVING Time TO
WATER PROBLEMS


From now until the water and sewer
systems are actually transferred from
the territory to the city and county,
the board of supervisors will spend a
good part of its time in planning for
the acquisition.
To bring both systems up to a pay
ing basis, to arrange some scheme for
the discharge of the bonded and cur
rent indebtednesses of the systems,
and also a scale of rates to be
charged for the service, are the in
tentions CT the board.
A special committee Of the board is
studying the problems involved in the
transfer. Supervisor Petrie, men,
Der of this committee, has reported
that the Superintendent of public
works has all the figures and general
information german to the transfer,
ready, which he will turn over to the
board at any time desired Special
meetings of the committee will be
held soon to work on this data and
outline the ordinances necessary to
pass to take the place of the terri
torial statutes relating to the water
and sewer systems which go out of
effect with the transfer

LOCAL LEADERS
BOOMING PORT
LOCAL DEMOCRATS START Ac-
TIVE MOVEMENT TO MAKE
SENATOR PoRTERFIELD POST.
MASTER OF FARGO WHEN THE
APPOINTMENT Is TO BE MADE.

w. P. Porterfield for postmaster is
of Fargo. Mr.. Porterfield is the pres
emit state senator. Fol more than
twenty-five years he has been a resi-
dent of this county, a part of the time
at Davenport and the last fifteen or
more year in Fargo.
His popularity is demonstrated by
the fact hat in a legislative district
generally conceded republican by two
or three to one he defeated the re-
publican candidate, R.. M. Pollock, for
an overwhelming majority.
Col. George w. Wilkinson, editor Of
The North Dakota Democrat, is a
candidate for the place. He was OPP
posed to Wilson for president, to
Breugger for national committeeman
and to Macarthur for state chairman.
While he has many outside endorse
ments, it Is said he is not able to Sc
cure those close to the throne.
For a time it was thought the place
might go to Macarthur, but as he has
the new position Of income tax in
spector for the Dakotas, Minnesota and
Montana he is nc longer an aSpirant.
If the matter was left to a popular
vote of the patrons Of the office Sen
atOr Porterfield would easily be a win
ner.
81 was not in sympathy last Sum-
mer with the crude attempt Of certain
democrats to prefer charges against
Postmaster Plumley to his re-
moval and make a place for a local
democrat" stated a prominent mem
Der Of that party this morning.
1--WE all want some good democrat
to have the p~ostoffice, but at the ex-
piration of Mr.. Plumley's term. 1t
seems to me that the proper man for
that position, when the time comes
for a change at the postoffice, is w.
P. Porterfield. He has been a life
long democrat, always. ~steadfast to the
principles of his party. He is a. per-
sonal friend of both Wilson and Bry-
an. He has resided in Cass county,
at Davenport and Fargo, for more
than a quarter of a century and there
Is not a man in the county who can
make a charge against him personally,
politically or in a business way If the
selection of a postmaster is left to
the people of Fargo on a popular vote
Port would win out 2 to l.
1T seems to me that we should all
get behind him and boost. I know he
has the ability and would give Far
go a splendid and efficient service. His
appointment would please the patrons
Of the office without regard to poll
tics. Let's get behind him and boost"
