which followed the overthrow of the

To-day there is hardly gov
| ernment in Europe where the Social
/ lists do not control affairs, and So
cialism means denial of any right
of God in the matter of conduct in
the human affairs. No political or
der ever has been. or can be. based
on Socialism ideas. And these prin-
ciples are finding their way into the
United States. Here the same spirit
is exhibited in the disregard for law
and lawful conduct of our civil af>
fairs
For you the duty is plain. AS our
boys stood shoulder to shoulder and
fought despotic rule over there, you
should stand shoulder to shoulder ov-
and always and everywhere oppose
mob rule or any other kind of disor-
der. The constitution and law are
your guide. Always and everywhere
be found on the side of law and order.
The kaiser was not half as much an
enemy to us and our institutions as
the man who defies the law or de
fends the actions of the lawless mob.
We have. to our shame, too many en-
amples of lawless conduct in this
state. Never condone it always op'
pose it. Stand behind the lawfully
constituted authorities. Only this
will save America from the fate of
those German cities ruled for time
by the murderous mob.
Do not be deceived: the peril is at
our door. Never allow yourself to be
carried away by the false claim that
il is right to take the law into your
own hands. We want no anarchists
or revolutionists here: we want law.

MERCHANTS DO THEIR PART

operation Alone Brings Pros
perity to Both.

(Copyright)
Residents of towns and cities every
where are beginning to realize more
acutely the fact that, except under
very unusual conditions, their commu-
mites will prosper and develop only
in proportion to the prosperity and de-
velopment that comes to the farming
sections which surround them. Real
izing this fact, commercial clubs and
chambers of commerce have in recent
years been devoting as much of their
attention to developing the country
districts as they have to securing new
industries and attracting new resi-
dents. They know that as the cOun-
try about the towns becomes more
thickly settled and as the farmers be-
come more prosperous the more money
Will be spent in the towns and the
faster these towns will grow. 1t is
largely for this reason that the resi-
dents of the towns and cities have
been doing more and more to aid the
farmers in growing bigger crops and
In improving marketing conditions.
The towns and cities have contributed
more and more literally toward the
building of good roads In the country
districts and have paid a large part
of the expense of maintaining agri-
cultural experts to assist the farmers
in growing bigger crops and getting
more money out of their crops when
they are placed on the market.
Not one-sided Proposition.
But this is not one-sided PROPOSE
ton. II the city is dependent upon
the country, so is the country depend
ent upon the city. What the farmer
raises is worth absolutely nothing to
him unless he can sell II at price that
will pay him a fair return on the
money and time invested in its pro-
duction. The farmer. without mar
kets, would be in the same fix as a
storekeeper without customers. In al
most every case the farmer is de
pendent upon the nearby town or city
for a market for at least his perish
able products.
In the language of the street, it is
fifty-fifty proposition. The town
needs the country and the country
needs the town. The farmer needs the
assistance of the storekeepers of the
town in securing n market for his
products. He needs the assistance of
the storekeepers of the town In getting
good roads over which he may haul his
nroducts without losing more tine

present Saturday. Mr.. McClymonds,
OF the Agricultural College, was judge
better corn than that of Mr.. Dixon's,
in long time.
There WAS n large amount of corn
displayed at the show. and the fact
that we did so well speaks in the
highest terms the quality of corn Mr..
Dixon has. The management of the
corn is displaying the winning corn
in Montrose for week and it will
also be put on display in Delta for
n like period. 1t is worth our while
TO take notice of this corn because
such corn is seldom seen.
The Farm Bureau is planning five
variety tests In this county another
year and Mr.. Dixon's "Silver Mine"
will be tried alongside of silver King
grown by Shelledy Bros. of Cedaredge.
Both have been acclimated here and
are giving good yields. There Will
also be several other varieties tried in
the same plots so that we can deter
mine just what the best varities are
for our different mesas.
The fields which will be used for
these variety tests have not been
chosen yet. The plots will be selected
by the better seed men in the COM
munities where the tests are to be
run. The corn for these plots will be
furnished free by the college and any
one who desires to grow il will do the
Farm Bureau favor by making the
fact known to the County Agent. The

in size.
The Farm Bureau is shipping in

variety to plant twenty-five acres
This will be distributed to twenty-five
different boys in the twenty-five diff
ferent communities which We have in
this county. Each boy will grow one
acre and must agree to take the corn
and grow it to the best of his ability
Also must grow 1t far enough from
any other corn to keep it from any
danger from mixing up.
Delta county has done remarkably
well in its shows this year and has
demonstrated that corn can be grown
here that is just as good, and in some
cases better than any other county
1t is certainly to everyone's best in

What is true of the cattle applies
with equal force to hogs, sheep. horses
and poultry, and the better sires slo-
gan will be made prominent in each
and every department of the show.
The indications are that the number
of exhibits in the show in January
will be much in excess Of those at
any previous show and the quality will
be far beyond the best that has ever
been seen before.

stock yards making preparations and

storekeeper Needs Farmers Trade.
On the other hand the storekeeper
needs the business of the farmer. He
does not ask the farmer to sell him his
products on credit even though at the
time he may be hard pushed for cash
and may need more credit badly. He
does not ask the farmer to help him
build sidewalk in front of his store.
He does not ask for the business of
the farmer provided that he can sell
the farmer the goods he needs at as
low a price as he can secure them for
elsewhere.
But does he always get the farmers
business? Ask the mail order man
In the big city or ask the postmaster
Or the express agent in any town or
city in the country. They could, if
they would. tell of thousands of dollars
sent away to the big cities TO pay for
goods that could be purchased just as
cheaply and much more conveniently
In the nearest town or city. These
thousands of dollars. when sent to the
mail order houses in the big cities,
never come back. They do not help
to build good roads past the farmers
houses. When the next crops are har-
vested, the mail order man won't buy
any of the farmers products. The

other things chat the farmer raises
