FEED FOR LAMBS

Ravages of the stomach worm now
become apparent in much of the east
ern section Of the United States. To
minimize them, it is we'll to wean the
lambs rather early, and turn them on
fresh pastures. This is advice from
specialists of the United States de-
partment of agriculture.
Grain fed to weaned lambs, up to
one-half pound a day, has proved prof
table. Soy beans and cowpeas have
been found the best catch crops for the
purpose Of providing fresh pasturage.;
Of the two, soy beans seems to make
the best and most rapid growth. Six
weeks in most cases is sufficient time
to secure a good growth of this crop.
BY utilizing these crops fresh pas
lures for lambs are easily available
for this most crucial period of the life
of a sheep.

letter has to do with the question of
farm labor, which is becoming more
and more problem to the American
farmer as well as to the farmland
himself. The letter:
editor Nonpartisan Leader:
''I find in a recent issue an answer
to letter regarding the farmer and
the farmland, which ends with the
following sentence:
"sThe question of whether the de-
mands * are fair depends for
its answer largely upon another ques-
tion-whether they will allow the en-
ployer to operate at a fair profit or
force him to accept loss at the end of
the season.
sI am bound to object to this state
ment. The farmers blanket is un-
doubtedly too short for his bed, but it
is short at the other end-big business,
not labor. want to make this one
point clear, because I believe it is the
one thing that keeps the organized
farmers and the organized wage-work-
ers from combining for success. Every
union workingman can see that the
.remedy>for his troubles lies elsewhere
than in beating down the prices the
farmer receives for his crops; but
many farmers incline to the attitude
of big business toward labor: when
profits fall off, reduce wages;' not only
in regard to his own help, but in such
matters as the present railroad prob
lens They fail to see that the farmer
who favors lowering wages to reduce
prices or help profits is in exactly the
same position as a laboring man who
favors forcing down the price of crops
below the profit line to ease his own
situation. Poor folks won't gain by
fighting each other.

OWNERS AND WORKERS
BOTH ARE SUFFERING

"The farm workers who own the
farms and those who do not are suf-
fering alike under the oppression of
those who farm the farmers. Both are
forced to work longer hours than men
should work, for insufficient pay. The
Leader may justly argue that it is
working to raise the whole industry to
plane of decent living and fair re-
muneration. Nevertheless, it can not
be stated as matter of right and
justice that farmhand's wages should
depend on the profits of farm, unless
it is allowed that a coal mine may
give the same reason for refusing
living wage to it's men, or depart
ment store for hiring girls at wages
that lead to prostitution; unless, in
other words, it is maintained that
labor is commodity and that the
buyer of labor is not concerned with
the laborer's existence and welfare. I
am sure the Leader does not mean to
advocate any such return to the dark
ages.**
"a man who is engaged in usetul
labor is entitled to a decent living and
a chance in life for himself and his
family. Nothing in the world can
change this right; circumstance, facts,
figures and arguments leave it un-
touched. If he does not get it, he is
wronged, cheated. The farmer who
works on his own land has this right
in respect to his own labor; but when
he becomes an employer he must rec
ognize that right in others, or he be-
comes himself an oppressor of labor;
and a small, unsuccessful oppressor
is just as bad as a large, successful
oppressor.
Every other right and privilege
/ stands inferior to this one great right
of human beings to live as BELTS hui
man beings. This is the principle, for
The nonpartisan leader., 1919-09-01
FAIR WAGE TO HANDS
UPHELD BY FARMERS

**We believe that Mr.. Gage falls
into an error in assuming that the
Leader urged wage based on the
farmers profits. It did nothing of the
kind. It did urge wage that would
permit the farmer to operate at
profit. This principle is recognized by
the labor unions, whose demands are
predicated, not only on the necessity for
the higher wage, but of the ability of
the employer to pay such a wage and
continue operating. What would be
the use of demanding such wage as
would force the employer to close his
shop and cease paying any wage what
ever? In addition to this, it will be
noted that there was no suggestion
that the farmer opposed or the Leader
favored any opposition to paying de-
cent and living wage to the farm
hand. The Leader fully recognizes the
short-sightedness of any proposal to
pay the farmland the lowest possible
price for labor while assailing the
same policy in greater industrial en-
terprises. But it did say that the
Idl1HS VI CLc opSClllC ueule1IluS lIlduc
by the writer Of the letter which ap-
peared in the Leader depended upon
the farmers ability to pay. That is
well-recognized economic principle and
must obtain through force of it's
soundness. But the politically awak-
ened farmer is just as anxious to OBJ
tain square deal for the farmland
as for himself. He wants the farm
hand to live decently.
North Dakota has taken hold Of the
farmland problem in new way. The
legislators in that state, where the
League is in power, know that the
way of emancipation for the farm
hand lies in making him an independ-
ent farmer. For that purpose the
home building association law was
passed, by which the state will assist
the farmland to obtain a farm and a
home on it. That is the most effective
and broadest attempt to solve the
question Of the farmland yet offered
in any state in the Union.-EDITOR.

*The Nonpartisan league since it's

ed the reduction of wages of workers.
The organized farmers recognize fully
that the remedy for industrial condi-

ducing group but in assailing the
superstructure of monopoly and prof

Real Tobacco in Prussia.

Real tobacco. good tobacco. was
once grown in more than one Prussian
province. an exchange says. In
B-andenburg, particularly, so much to-
hacco was cultivated that Frederick III
felt called upon in 1776 to regulate
matters. First the quantity was cut
down. and later it was allowed to be
grown only In districts in which agri-
culture did not flourish. In one year
alone. 1872, 10000 hundredweight
was grown. In 1880 Frederick ordered
a Berlin chemist, Achard. TO expert
ment with the object of improving the
quality of the tobacco. Attempts were
made at Lichtenberg, near Berlin. to
introduce Virginia tobacco. and Ach-
ard was given a handsome pension for
life for his services in improving to-
bacco cultivation"
