EQUITY NEWS NOTES

The office at Great Falls
sends out prices each day to
the farmers of the state and
this has enabled them to get
from five to ten cents more per
bushel for their grain than
they otherwise would get.
In many instances farmers
have been forced to sell their
grain to track buyers. but be-
fore doing SO they have called
up the Office at Great Falls and
ascertained the price for that
day. This put them in a posi-
ton to demand of track buyers
or elevators a reasonable price
for their grain. and in every in
stance have been able to raise
the price from Ave to ten cents
per bushel over what they
would otherwise get. Most
track buyers and line elevators
in the state of Montana are
knocking the Equity Co-opera-
tive Exchange by reason of the
fact that it is assisting farmers
of the state in getting what
rightfully belongs to them
when they disposed of this
years product. The associa-
ton will in the future send a
representative to the St. Paul
office to meet with the board Of

The current issue of the Nonpartisan Lead
er emphatically denies that the League is sup
porting either Burke or McCumber for the
senate. This ought to silence once and for all
those who have been delivering the support Of
the league first to one and then to the other 81

one and grows warmer as election day draws
nigh. Your guess is as good as the next fellows

THERE are those who appear to take it for
granted that members of the Nonpartisan Lea
que are committed to support of the establish
ment of a state normal school at Dickinson be-.
cause the republican state committee has such a
plank in it's platform. Nothing could be farther
from the truth. The Nonpartisan league has
it's own platform. And it says nothing about
the Dickinson normal school proposition. And
that is the platform members of the league are
committed to, and no other. The matter of the
Dickinson normal school should be voted on
purely on it's merits and not as a part of the
League program. BIZ

Nor content with Mothers Day, Flag Day,
Fire Prevention Day, Gopher Day and scores of
other DAYS, specially designated by proclama-
ton, the latest is Candy Day. The presump.
ton is that on this day you are to buy a nice, big
box of chocolate creams for mother. While
the sentiment in itself is beautiful enough, there
is a lurking suspicion that the movement orig
mated in the fertile mind of some chocolate
manufacturer, who hopes through the designa-
ton of such a day to. greatly augment the sale
of his wares. AS for mother, the good old soul
never dotted as much on chocolate creams as she
did the many other little kindnesses of flia1
affection that are not purchased at a candy
mart.

Basing it's presumption on past history and
the assumption that the, European war will
come to an end during the next twelve months,
the Minneapolis Journal advises the Northwest
to SOW large areas of wheat the coming year.
Past experiences have shown that wheat prices
have always SCARED the year following a great
war. The Journals advice, may be taken for
just what it is worth. The fact remains that un-
der the present system the market price is alb
solutely controlled by the wheat combine with
out regard for the old theory of supply and de-
mand. If the farmers could only be advised in
advance what the grain gamblers are going to
do in 1917 when the crop is dumped on the
market it would be of more valuable guidance
than the worlds history.

c. Bache- Wig, an inventor at Portland.
Maine, has been making extensive experiments
with the manufacture of paper from wheat
straw. His experiments have been made with
North Dakota wheat straw. at that. and from
present indications are very successful. Should
the plan prove practical it will open a source of
revenue and industry for North Dakota that
will mean millions of dollars a year, from a
commodity that at the present time is af
most wholly wasted, the inventors further
experiments will be watched with a great deal
of interest by the people of North Dakota, and
particularly by the farmers, who are most
directly affected.
