Denies Farmer Is Prodteer.

The trouble is not that the consum-
ing public is naturally unreasona BILE
toward the farmer" he continued, but
IL is because II lacks information that
It curses him and applauds the politician
and assails the farmer as a profteer
and robber. But there Is manifest to-
day an alarming condition that cannot
be dsregarded by our thoughtful citi-
zenship, whether they live in the city or
country, and IL involves more than the
milk business. From the war In Europe
we felt tolerably secure for a couple of
wears. We now realize how mis-, AIKEN we
were. Spreading over Europe Is a worse
menace to our institutions than the dec
laration Of war In 1914. Half OF Europe Is
to-day swept by Bolshevsm. The great
cities a this country are just as In
flammaSle as Europe. The growing an
tagonism between the city and country
is being famed into hatred between peo-
pies who ought TO be friendly.
I'VE ask but the cost Of production
plus a reasonable profit. In this we are
eternally right, and We feel confident
that that the consuming public, organ.

The earnestness with which John Lang

bridegrooms.
While Lang was languishlng in cell
