There is no conflict of inter
est between the farmer and
business man of 4 community.
Each has his own particular
work and bends his energies
IN his own way toward carry
ing it on. But the work Of the
one will prosper most when
the other is meeting with a
fair measure of success. There
fore the merchant should have
an active interest in the well
fare of the farmer, and the
farmer in the business of the
merchant.
But it is in the life of the
community that their interests
actually merge. Each wants
the community to be the best
possible place to live in. AIDE
quate church and school adj
yantages, wholesome social
life and entertainment, and
good roads are essential. The
need of one i'll this respect is

Starting a Parcel Post
Market for EGGS

There are Ill our cities AND
towns many housewives who
would be glad to make arrange
ments for receiving 4 supply
of fresh eggs direct from the
farm throughout the year.
Just at this time, when eggs
are scarce and the demand far
exceeds the supply of newly
laid eggs, there is a good OPP
portunity for the farmer, even
though he has but few eggs to
market, to make contract with
some city or town family to
supply them with eggs. The
farmers supply at the present
time will not be great enough,
possibly, to satisfy the demand
of the city family, but if the
is explained it will be
easy to make arrangements to
eggs by parcel post
now and continue to do sol
throughout the year. In other
words, it will be much easier
o make arrangements to ship
'ggs now, when everybody |
wants them, than to do SO in
he spring, when they are in
bundant supply and when
he housewife can secure good,

Anything is likely to happen in
Kansas, and the everything this year
may be free baseball. Remembering
the well known love of baseball
magnate for the sound of dollars
dropping into the till, this may
sound unreasonable, but nothing is
reasonable in sizing up the Western
league for the coming season. When
it comes to trials and tribulations,
Job had a bed of primroses as COM
pared with the Western league. All
he had was boils. The Western, of
4 which Tip O'Neill is the head, with
offices on Charles Comiskey's bear
skin rugs in Chicago, is shy of
money in spots These spots are
mostly in Kansas, hence the sug-
gestion of free baseball. 1t is con-
| tended that the Western league will
start it's schedule with all flags fly
ing, but at the present time teams in
the league have about four or five
players and bat boy signed up. Ev-
erybOdy is waiting to grab the cast
offs from the AA and major leagues
and few managers have much Of an
idea what their team will look like
when it takes the field.
But getting back to free baseball
an attempt was made this winter to
| transfer the Topeka franchise to
Colorado Springs. Miles Of newspa-
per space was taken up negotiating
! the deal, but it fell through. John
Savage, new owner at Topeka, then
announced that the team would start
as per schedule but in the mean
time made proposition to the Com
mercial club Of his town, he agreed
that if they would undertake to sell
$4,000 worth of tickets good for any
game during the season, he would
guarantee that the club would play
out it's schedule. Buck Ebright,
president of the Wichita club, made
similar but more radical proposition
to the business organizations of his
towns. Conditions in the two Kan
sas towns are much the same, name
ly, those who happen to go to ball
game get lonesome up there in the
stands all alone. Ebright suggested
that the business organizations Of
| Wichita guarantee the teams expen-
ses by subscription. Then, he said,
he would throw the gates open and
admit the public free to the games.
That is the answer of free baseball
in Kansas. Wichita may have it,

and am sure that the feeling in both
city and country is much better. To
make Bemidji a city of $4,000 it will
be necessary to build up the country
around you as well as that part with
in your walls. You have too many
merchants for we farmers to sup
port. If you specialized more as you
encourage the farmers to do, I be-
lieve conditions would be improved.
1t has always been hard for the farm
er to get cash.
"And it has been just this that has
forced the farmer to spend his money
where he could make the dollar buy
most. This has sdriven him to the
mail order house as much as any
thing else. Get him a cash market,
make him satisfied and keep him SO,
is the way to win him. This is be-
ing brought about rapidly, I believe"
Should Buy at Home.
Mr.. Richie intimated that if a
farmer could save $50 year by
ira ding with mail order house and
he could spend that $50 on his farm,
it would be better for the community
and himself, than to spend the money
at the home town merchant. In the
discussion that followed it was
brought out that both the farmer and
the merchants would be money ahead
if the farmer spent the extra $50
with the home merchant, because it
will have increased the value of his
land more than the $50 saved. BY
trading at home it will keep the
money at home, help the growth Ct
the city, and in this way benefit the
farmer, because it is infinitely better
to own farm near a big city than a
little one

RAID A GERMAN
MANUFACT TURING CITY

PARIS, May 27.-One of the greatest
and most successful raids executed by
French aerial craft since the beginning g
of hostilities, was successfully accom-
plished early today, terrific damage be-
ing inflicted upon important German
military establishments during the
course of the bombardment. Ludwigs-
hafen on the Rhine was the scene of
the bold dash and the large chemical
works located there was the objective
of the French attack. Damage such
as may result in the total suspension
of activities at the works, it is claim
ed, was inflicted.
equipped with one hundred and ten
equippe with one hundred and ten
rounds of projectiles, set out on the
raid shortly before daylight, crossing
the German lines and attacking Lud-
wigshafen before their presence was
suspected. Guided by excellent charts
the French aircraft found little diff
Guilty in locating the chemical works
soughts to be destroyed. A heavy rain
of explosive projectiles was sent upon
the buildings and within few minutes
after the bombardment commenced,
several of the structures burst into
flames. The chemical contents of nu-
merous tanks about the premises ex-
ploded when struck by projectiles from
the aeropIanes and a scene of great
devastation now marks the site of the
big works. 1t is stated upon au-
thentic authority this afternoon that
the poisonous gases used by German
troops against the forces of the allies
have been manufactured largely at the
Ludwigshafen works.
The French official statement late
this afternoon confirms earlier reports
of the successful raid upon Ludwigs-
hafen. adding that all of the attacking
aeroplanes returned safely to their
base behind the French lines, after ex-
hausting their supply of explosives.
Great military Importance is attached
to the successful elimination of the
attack, according to the French war
