The farmers are holding the first line trenches in North Da-
kota. The effectiveness with which they are holding these trench
es depends on how much crop is put in and how well it is put in.
Food is one of the most important things in winning the wal. Not
only must the soldiers be fed but the civilian population that are
needed by the farmers, manufacturers, and transporters in order
that all may be equipped for doing the most effective work.
Now is the time when the farmers must go over the top. The crop
that is not put in will not help win the war. The acres not in crop
are Stacker Acres.

Their act of the great danger there would be to the taxpayers. by
amending our state constitution so, that Townley and his office
seekers could be able to bond this state for ~$1O,OOOOOO, to be
paid back with interest in 80 years by direct taxation, or will they
wait until it is too late. That is just what Townley and his tribe
is going to ask for at the election this fall and they already have
hundreds of petition out getting signers enough to get it on the
to bond for such an %exhorbitant amount to be saddled upon us,
besides all the other taxes we have to pay, they will be the losers.
In this issue will be found a call for a mass convention for
names of three men for the coming legislature. This matter is OF
vital interest to the taxpayers of the county, if they wish to see
that this state is not bonded for ~$l0OOO,OOO, and that other Social
istic propaganda is carried out according to the Townley program.
A few DAYS ago 22 men, many of them not land owners of this
county, got together at the court house and nominated three men,
who are pledged to the Townley program of amending our state
constitution so that this state could be bonded for almost any
purpose, and are now out asking the taxpayers of the county to
support these men for the legislature. They are men,, who are
absolutely pledged to the Sociaistic program, and if they are sent
to the legislature they will have to sign up to do Townleys bidding,
and we believe that this is entirely wrong, and that. the taxpayers
of this county will not stand for it.
