A. C. Townley, of North Dylkota.
is national president of the nonA Aerti-
san league. He is campaigni43 in
Idaho for the election of the les pes
candidates for congressional, BITE,
county and legislative officersXa He
spoke in the city park of Moscow
last Friday night. His speech, deliv
cred there, follows:
"Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentle
men: won't keep you long. I know
what you are going to do tomorrow
and what time you will get up. You

| want to tell you what we did
in North Dakota. The first thing
you farmers must learn to do is to
talk. 1t is hard at first, but you will
learn it. / held a meeting recently
in Missoula The farmers there tried
to secure place for the meeting.
They tried the halls, the streets, the
fair grounds, the roads in the valley.
Couldn't get 'em. The farmers could
not talk as fast Or as well as the
people in the valley. / arrived there
and found that I had to go about 50G
feet up a steep hill to talk, but we
had lot of farmers there and we
practiced for two hours. Then the
farmers could -talk4as fast and as well
as the people in the valleys.
In North Dakota the nonpartisan |
league was built on talk. We did
nothing else, at first We never killed |
a man. We just talked. For a time
/ was the only man in the United
States who talked the nonpartisan
league. It's different now There are
thousands who wish to God I was the
only one that talked it. They are
all talking it. If there is a man in
the United States who isn't talking
league | want to meet
him. I have never seen him yet.
l learned to talk very young. I
learned the language of the farmer.

at o'clock in the morning. 1 asked

| learned, as l grew older, to go to
town and ask what is the price of this
pair of overalls. l learned to ask
what are you going to give me for
my wheat. That is the language of
the farmer
Here Mr.. Townley told the story Of
4 Swede named Ole who could not
talk very well. He could talk to the
chicks and the hogs and the horses
but he could not talk to people and
the banker. He went to the
bank to ascertain how much interest he
owed and the banker saw the Non
partisan Leader sticking out Of his
pocket and told Ole he was a 1916

SHIELD FOR CHIFFON SLEEVES
Protection Need Not Be Disfieurlne or
Conspicuous if Made From
Fine Material.

Have you ever had any difficulty
with your sheer chiffon and georgette
sleeves drawing and wearing into.
holes across the upper forearms? Or
perhaps you have been afraid to risk
the danger Of their doing this very
thing, and for that reason have de-
MED yourself the pleasure and salts
faction of putting transparent sleeves
in your silk and serge froclls. In
either event, you will be glad to know
of a simple little device which is a
sure proof against this particular form
of annoyance and waste.
The beauty of a transparent sleeve
is the lovely soft line it gives the
shoulder of a blouse, and so its whole
object would be entirely refuted were
any bulky sort of. lining made for it.
But, as~in most cases, it absolutely
refuses to stand the strain of wear I'M
aided; something must be done to re-
enforce ii. This can be done very
easily, and almost invisibly, by cut
ting a shield-lilSe shape from some soft
and pliable material such as indie
structible chiffon or china silk, and
fastening it into the armhole under
the sleeve and across the upper part
of the arm. Then the transparent ma
terlal of the Sleeve is tackled lightly TO
the lower edges of this piece, thus re-
moving all strain from the shoulder to
the middle OF the forearm. AS this
is the very area in which the greatest
strain is applied, the use of this little
device will ensure just about twice
as long a period Of wear for the sleeves
thus safeguarded. And the shield pro-
lection need not be at.all disfgurinS
or conspicuous if it is made from fine
enough material of just the right
shade, and set in carefully without
drawing or pulling.

The stockmen are not to blame for
the present condition in the meat
trade. People have been beguiled by
n false economy into calling for cheap
meat, regardless of the condition in
which it is marketed Families who
know good value in clothes or cot.
fee or flour, still look at the price
mark first OF all in buying meats.
and are content to serve guests at
dinner with a roast from some VEN
cradle COW that would hardly qualify
as a Gamer in a respectable packing
plant So long as this condition ex-
lists, the stockmen are pOwerless to
build up the cattle business to the
level that il has reached throughout
the middle west or in England. When
cattleman or packer or q retailer
takes an honest pride in his business
and tries TO deliver to his customers
first-class merchandise that represents
the best standards that he has been
able to evolve, it makes him sick to
see prime beef discarded in the local
markets in favor of a stringy old piece
of discarded automobile tire carved
out of the COW that made the grand
tour with Noah.
Let me show what poor economy
it is to buy unfinished meat. Take
a steer just off the grass in poor
flesh. really not fit for marketing. He
weighs, say. 1000 pounds and ought
to be put in the feedlots for three
months to add 200 pounds in weight
and to gain the finish that viii make
him a prime steer in any market.
! Every stOckman and every packer
/ knows that it is an economic crime
! to dress him in his underfed con-
ditiOn when a little alfalfa would add
so per cent to his value to the grow
er and would give the consumer a
perfect article OF food However,
there is misguided demand for
cheap meat, and so the steer goes
to the block. He sells for &c a pound,
or $50, and owing to his underfed
condition he dresses only so per cent,
| or 500 pounds to the carcass. That
meat sells Wholesale at TIC a pound,
| or $S5. The apparent loss to the
packer is made up by the hide, the
tongue. the liver, the kidneys and
some tallOw, which realize enough to
cover the handling cost and some
profit. When the retailer gets this
meat he sells a part of the forequar-
] ters at a loss the loins at a profit
and the hind quarter at a little more
| than the average cost of the entire
| carcass. The beef retails say at an
average of 21c a pound, or S1O5 This
carcass with it's 500 pounds of beef
contains, however. about 100 pounds
of bones and inedible trimmings. SO
| the consumer gets only $40 pounds
of net meat which cost him an aver
| age of practically Sic a pound
Now suppose that same steer has
been finished in the feedlot to weigh
200 pounds Instead of selling at
&c, the animal brings 13c a pound,
or S156. That is an advance Of $3.50
in the price realized by the grower.
The carcass now dresses So per cent,
or $50 pounds, and it sells wholesale
at 22c pound, or $153.12. The meat
is retailed straight through at an av
erage price of say 26c a pound. OF
$751;. This carcass, however, con
tains hardly more bone and inedible
trimmings than did the same steer
in poor flesh. Let US deduct say Isl
