Cottonwood, who purchased during
the past winter 33 head of registered

of the cattle sent a quantity of the

TO RUSH AMERICAN
TROOPS TO AID ALLIES

Washington, April 2.-The an
nouncement from London that Amer
lean army units are to be brigaded
with British and French organiza-
lions was interpreted by army Off
GERS here today as indicating that the
United States government is ready to
thrust aside all questional Of national
pride in placing American man pow
er at the immediate disposal of the
allies, The plan was decided upon at
q conference between Secretary Bak-
er and Generals Bliss and Pershing
and British and French officials.
Details of the method to be follow
ed are not available and presumably
will be arranged by General Perish
ing. There was every indication,
however, that American troops now
in training here are to be rushed
across regardless of their proficiency.
The British statement says the ma
tional aspect of General Pershing's
army is not to be impaired. The
building up of that purely American
war machine will proceed as rapidly
as possible.

SAID TO PLAN BIG

A prediction that Germany would
soon attempt air raids on America
was made by Col. e. A. Havers, q.
s. A., retired, in al address at a
meeting at the Park Avenue hotel,
New York City, several days ago.
Germany il preparing to attack

Col. Havers. "The enemy has recent

able of 140 miles an hour and will be

REFUSE PAPER
South Dakota Leaguers Tell Editor
to Donate Subscriptions to
Red Cross.

AS a result of mistaken zeal in
fighting farmers organizations, the
editor of The Gazette. Mitchell, S. D.,
has received a letter from the secre-
tary of. the Farmers union, asking
him to stop the papers coming to
members of the organization and to
devote the balance on subscriptions
to the Red Cross.
The Mitchell Gazette, which has
been fighting the Non-partisan league,
has been coming to many farmers
who had not subscribed for it, paid
for evidently, by the big interests
who view the growth of the league
with alarm. BY refusing to take,
even for a gift, the paper that is mis-
representing their cause, the farmers
of South Dakota are simply following
the example of farmers in other parts
Of the Northwest.

SHOW FLOUR PROFITS LARGE
Montana City Cuts Prices in Half by
Manufacturing at
Home.

Proof of enormous proiteering in
flour is found in the experience of
Harlem, Montana, where the citizens
got together and erected a small -four
mill which cut the price Of flour in
half. The Terry, Montana, Tribune,
which makes this statement, says
that a number of communities on the
Yellowstone have got relief by the
same method.
No palmer case was yer made in
favor of state owned -four mills. The
Montana farmer must sell his wheat
at the Minneapolis price, less freight.
He must buy his flour at the Mime
apolis price, plus freight and plus the
profits that have been taken by the
various agencies along the journey.
AT least a half a dozen of these
useless middlemen who contribute
nothing to the value of the product,
have to be supported. The buyer at
the original point, the commission
firm in Minneapolis, the buyer for
the mill, the milling company, all
have to be settled with before the
-four is made. On the journey back
the product must support wholesaler,
jobber and retailer. The %transporta-
tion companies take profit both ways
This illustrates the useless expense
by middlemen that the Non,partisan
league is organized to eliminate. BY
acting together the people Of Mon
tana may cut their flour bill in two
as was done at Harlem, and they
may treat their meat bill in the
same way by organizing state-owned
packing plants.
