Lind0p E. Brown, Former Glas-
gov Resident, Now Captain
British Royal Flying
Corps.
HAS SEEN THREE YEARS OF SERVICE
Now Stationed at Fort Worth In
structing American and Canadian
Students in Flying. Pleased
at Activities Shown.

Captain Lindop E. Brown of the
British Royal Flying corps has been
spending the week visiting with old
friends in and around Glasgow. Cap
tain Brown is now stationed at Fort
Wright, where he is acting as instruc-
tor for American and Canadian cadets
who are learning to fly. He is at pres
ent on sick-leave and will go from
here to his old home in British Colum-
bia, before returning to Fort Worth.
Mrs. Brown and their little daughter
accompanies him and they are at
present visiting at the home of Mrs.
Browns brother, Arthur White, near
Hinsdale.
Captain Brown is an old resident of
Valley county, having a ranch north
of Hinsdale still. He is one of the
pioneers in the flying game having
graduated from the Wright Brothers
school of aviation in 1918. At that
time aviation was an experiment in
stead of an art, and consequently Mr..
Brown has had his training "from the
ground up"
For the past three years the captain
has been stationed in England and
was sent to the United States just re-
Gently to assist in training American
flyers. In an interview with the cap
tain he stated to a Courier reporter
that he was very much pleased with
the showing that the United States
has made to date. He stated that the
American students were showing par
ticular adaptability in the flying art
and would certainly make name for
themselves when given an opportunity
to fight the Huns first hand.
Captain Brown has already lost one
brother in the war and has two other
brothers in the service. The dead
brother was killed at the battle of the
Somme, one Of the most historic bat
ties Of the great war.
Speaking of his visit to Montana
Captain Brown stated that he was not
sure that the people Of the great
treasure state were yet sufficiently
alive to the gravity of the situation.
In line with this he said that it was
not a certainty that the war would
not last for several years yet"

JOINT FARMERS MEETINGS

cordiDg to Harry d. Wilson, com.

''It' will be the first time that all

the problems that confront us in
the labor of developing the agri.
cultural resources of the state"
said MIR. Wilson. "There are
many things to talk over with
nine principal problems to be

"This WILL not be q meeting Of

THE FARMERS GOLDEN
OPPORTUNITY.

Nowhere In the wide world has
anyone profited more from the
war than the American farmer.
Prices Of cotton, rice, sugar,
grain, livestock; in fact, of every
thing the farmer has to sell are
higher than he ever dreamed Of
and the end is not yet.
Unlike the farmers of France,
of Italy, Of Russia, aud of other
countries in the war, the Amer
can farmer can go about his work
sowing in the Spring and feeling
secure that his fields will not he
overruD by the enemy before bar
vest; respiDg in the firm kDowl
edge that his stored gtain will not
be seized by ruthless invader.
'Tis tue tha' he fa'mr, has
his troubles, Help is hard to get,
and the cost of production goes up
month by month. What the farm
or has to buy also advances con-
tinually in price, but the farmer,
unlike the city dweller, can, lf he
desires, purchase very little and
still get along. His living is
right on his farm. What he pur.
cbases elsewhere ia largely in the
line Of Injuries. He can sell now,
while prices are high, and buy
later, II he wishes, after prices go
down.
In fact 1t would be wisdom if he
would follow this plan. Cut down
on the purchases OF .luxuries and
save for the next period of depres.
sion. That is just what the
United States is asking him to do
in connection with the War Saw
ings campaign, The world needs
food--all that can be produced
The government needs money all
that can be had. Let the farmer
produce the food and supply a
hungry world, and put his money
part, at least from every load of
produce he sells--into government
war savings stamps.
The security is the best in the
world; the interest rate is good;

district. Since then more than two
dozen farm properties, with thousands
of bushels Of grain have been burned.
Phosphorus was found in grain ship

threshing outfits were reported. Then
the scene shifted to Minnesota.
Various departments are at work
totalling the losses of Minnesota's his
