The RURAL PRESS
The Local Paper Most Useful
Agency on the Farn-The Press,
Pulpit and School a Trinity of
influence That Must Be
Utilized in Building
Agriculture.
by Peter Radford
Lecturer National Farmers Union

Lecturer National Farmers Union
A broad campaign OF publicity on
the subject of rural life is needed in
this state today to bring the problems
of the farmers to the forefront The
city problems are blazoned upon the
front pages OF the metropolitan dali
les and echoed il the country press,
but the troubles of the farmers are
seldom told, except by those who
seek to profit by the story, and the
glitter of the package ofttimes OBJ
scures the substance. A searching in
vestigatiOn into the needs of the
farmers will reveal many inherent de-
fects in our economic system that can
be easily remedied when properly IN
dersto0d and illuminated by the pow
er of the press.
The rural press, the pulpit and the
school are a trinity of powerful in
fuences that the farmer must utilize
to their fullest capacity before he can
occupy q commanding position in pub
lie affairs. These gigantic agencies are
organized in every rural community
and only await the patronage and CO.
operation of the farmers to fully de-
velop their energy and usefulness.
They are local forces working for
the best interests Of their respective
communities. Their work is to build
and their object is to serve. They
prosper only through the development
and prosperity Of the community.
Every farmer in this state should
subscribe for the local paper as well
as farm periodicals and such other
publications as he may find profitable,
but he should by all means subscribe
for his local paper, and no home
should be without it. The local paper
is part Of the community life and the
editor understands the farmers prob
lens. It is the local press that will
study the local problems and through
its columns deal with subjects of most
vital Importance to local life Of the
community.

a Noble Task.

IN too many instances the country
ing prominence to scandals, accidents
and political agitation. The new
rural civilization has placed upon the
rural press renewed responsibilities,
and enlarged possibilities for useful
ness. It cannot perform it's mission
to agriculture by recording the frail-
ties, the mishaps and inordinate am
billions of humanity, or by filling it's
columns with the echoes of the strug-
giles of busy streets, or by enchanting
stories of city life which lure our
children from the farm.
It has higher and nobler task.
Too often the pages Of the city dailies
bristle with the struggle of ambitious
men in their wild lust for power, and
many times the flames of personal
conflict scar the tender buds of new
civilization and illuminate the path
way to destruction. The rural press
is the governing power of public senti-
ment and must hold steadfast to
principle and keep the ship of state
in the roadstead of progress The
rural press can best serve the inter
ests of the farmers by applying it's
energies to the solution of problems
affecting the local community. 1t
must stem the mighty life current
that is moving from the farm to the
cities, sweeping before it a thousand
boys and girls per day. 1t has to deal
with the fundamental problems of
civilization at their fountain head. Its
mission is to direct growth, teach eff
ficiency and mold the intellectual life
of the country, placing before the pub
lie the daily problems Of the farmers
and giving first attention to the leg
islative, cooperative, educational and
social needs of the agricultural classes
within it's respective community.
The Power of Advertising.
The influence of advertising is clear
ly visible in the homes and habits of
the farmers, and the advertising col
umns of the press are making their
imprint upon the lives of our people.
The farmer possesses the things that
ere best advertised.
The farmer is entitled to all the
advantages and deserves all the lux
uries of life. We need more art, sci
ence and useful facilities on the
farms, and many homes and farms
are we'll balanced in this respect, but
the advertiser can render a service
by teaching the advantages of modern
enuipment throughout the columns of
the rural press.

LONDON. Jan. 30.-The Lokal An
zeiger of Berlin discusses the fight
ing qualities of the allied armies.
According to Reuter- translations, it
considers the Walloons to be of
slight military value, but says that
the Flemish regiments have proved
themselves to be worthy descendants
of their ancestors who won the vic
tories of Egmont AMI William of
Orange.

although accompanied of course by
bluff regarding the creating of a big

soldiers, the Lokal Anzeiger says,
have proved surprise. I'VE have
seen, it proceeds, "little of the sup
posedly French theatrical heroNsm

played estimable and praiseworthy

forms excellent work and at their
head stands an army commander
who, though he had won no decisive
victory, had secured name in the

The Russians, the critic said, had
displayed an unexpected capacity to
utilize the terrain and an accuracy
in artillery. "The fact that we

PENDANT MOVES
FOR A NEW TRIAL
LIABILITY OF PROPERTY OWNER
FOR WORK AND MATERIAL
IN QUESTION

The case of George A. Phillips VS..
Dry Wash" Wilson ct al. is before
the district court on defendants mo-
tion for a new trial. The case in
wolves very novel question of law,
requiring construction of the Ne
yada statute relative to owners of
property exempting the property
from liability for work on materials
furnished to the tenant or person in
possession. The statute provides that
the owners of any property which is
in the possession of another as tenant
or the like may exempt the property
from liens by posting non-liabllity no
tices within three days after obtain
ing notice of the work being done.
In the Phillips case, Mr. Wilson
posted the non-liability notices, but
IL seems that they were either de-
stroyed by the elements or were torn
down. and that when Phillips went
to work the notices were not iegible,
Phillips contended he had right OF
lien, Notwithstanding the posting of
the notices, and Wilson's contention
was that inasmuch as the statute
simply required a posting and did
not expressly require notices to be
maintained for any length of time,
that the posting was sufficient, and
Phillips not entitled to recover.
The case was tried before Judge
Averill some time ago, and the court
held that the notices had to be main
tanned under the law for a reason
able time, and that in this case the
evidence did not show any reasonable
time, and decided the case against
Wilson. The present proceedings in
this district court are probably pre-
liminary to carrying the matter to
the supreme court for a final con
struction in the event Judge Averil
should deny the new trial. H. II. At
kinson appears as attorney for Phil
lips and II. r. Cooke represents the
defendant.

AURORA MINE AND
MILL ARE CLOSED
PLANT FAILS TO EXTRACT A
SUFFICIENTLY HIGH
PERCENTAGE

The mine and mill of the Aurora
Consolidated Mines company at Au-
rora closed down tight on Wednes-
day, throwing $50 men out of en-
ployment. The auto stage is making
two round trips a day taking men out
and many are walking. The cause
of the close-down is due to the in
ability of the MILL which was CON
structed by the Jesse Knight people
of Utah, to save the values. A large
part of the mill will be reconstructed
and the process improved. This work,
it is expected, will be undertaken
early in the spring and in the mean.
while only development work will be
carried on.
