FARMERS TAKE
OVER LOCAL PAPER

The farmers of Roberts county took
over the Sisseton Standard on Sat
urday of last week and will operate
it in the future 10 promote the in
terests of the farmers of this vicinity
and the people OF Sisseton. The paper
lis incorporated under the name of the
Roberts County Press.
The farmers of the Northwest are
we'll organized and in order to bring
their ideas before the public are pur
chasing papers all over the northwest
and at the present writing have un-
der their control almost two hundred
papers. The stock of the paper is
taken, by local capital and therefor
the policy OF the paper will be to
boost Roberts county.
We are going to keep the paper up
to it's present high state of efficiency
and if possible improve on it. The
business men will be treated fairly
and their cooperation is solicited. All
honest criticism of the policy of the
Standard will be taken in good faith
Since the farmers have taken CON
troll the circulation has increased
wonderfully. In the past week VIC
have added hundred names to the
list and understand that many more
will subscribe in the near future. AS
the Standard already has large
subscription list we are able to give
the advertisers the best possible re-
suits.
The farmers in purchasing this
paper had the idea in mind to not
only work for their own interests but
to join hands with the merchants in
order to help one another. What
benefits the farmer is found to bene-
lift the merchant, who depends upon
the farmer for his living. So. let's
work together.
Standard Under New Management
With this issue the Sisseton Stand
ard comes out under new manage
men. and we bid goodby to our friends
who have stood back. of us durine
the five years we have edited ths
paper.
| During our business career in Sis
seton we have epdeavored to give the
people OF Roberts County good
paper and if we have succeeded,
no one has ever told us, so we arc
sill guessing. However, we have
done as we'll as we could so what
more could be done.
In turning over the Standard to the
new owners@Tle Roberts County
Press-organized by the farmers OF
Roberts county-we wish to ask that
they be given the same splendid sup
port from the Standard readers we
have received in the past and are
positive that the paper will be az
good if not better than it has been. in
the future
All subscription accounts will be
assumed by the new owner and credits
have all been extended.
We have enjoyed our work at Sis
seton and it is with deep regret that
we leave the city of sisseton, Roberts
County and the old sisseton Weekly
Standard.

of protein can take place, are the
optimum conditions for the mainte-
nance of yigor and the character
istics OF youth. Such a dietary re-
gime can be attained only by sup
plementing the seed products, tubers,
roots and meat, which must con-
stitute the bulk of the diet of man
with the protective foods, milk and
the leafy vegetables.
Practical Suggestions.
The value Of these protective
foods cannot be overestimated.
Milk and the leafy vegetables are
given precedence over eggs in their
protective power Every time you
serve spinach, or cabbage, or let
tuce, or other leafy vegetable on
your table you are contributing in
very real way to the well-being
of your family. If your group
scorns such vegetables, try in every
culinary and argumentative way to
make them "see the light" 1t is
more than worth while.
The good qualities of milk stand
out above those of any other food.
Every person who learns to drink
milk is started or kept en- the road
to health. For the people who will
not take milk straight there are the
thousand and one milk soups, cream
sauces and milk buildings, hot, cold
and frozen. Put milk on a kitchen
post of honor-it belongs there.

the claims Of the sailors and soldiers
in the war.
Same Reservations.
Women know that some of the
occupations in which they have
served during the war they have
been only a makeshift by reason of
inferior strength" Lady Rhondda
admitted, land in the long run wom-
en- must be excluded from such by
the ordinary rules of economy. With
these reservations, women claim un-
restricted liberty to be engaged in
any industrial employment, provided
only that they receive the same pay
as men do for equal output. They
claim the opportunity of being train
ed in the most efficient way and par
ticularly the provision of women in
structors on work in which women
have proved more successful than
men. They claim the same opportu-
mites as men for promotion, repre-
sentation on government committees
and all public bodies and facilities of
educatiort in schools and universities
that will enable them to qualify
equally with men in all suitable
trades and professions"

No Discrimination to Be Made
Against Women in the
British Industries

London, March l5-(Correspond-
ence OF Associated Press.)-No dis
elimination is to be made against
women in British industry, Premier
Lloyd George declares in a letter
addressed to Lady Rhondda, presi-
dent OF the Women's Industrial
league, who had submitted to him
memorial setting forth the claims
of women to freedom OF employ
ment.
After the pledges made by the
government to the trade unions
have been fulfilled, wrote Mr..
Lloyd George in his reply. women
will find ample scope in peace pur-
suits. He supports the principle of
equal pay for equal output" and
promises full opportunity for wo-
men in training and education.
In those industrial occupations
in which women were engaged be-
fore the war;" the premier added,
opportunities of every sort will be
opened up for every class of women
worker, and | believe that the real
working representative of organ
lied labor may be trusted when the
time comes to see the necessity OF
utilizing, in the interests Of produc-
tion and to the best advantage every
class OF worker available"
No Cutting Wages.
Regarding payment, he says: ITO
permit women to be the catspaw for
reducing the level of wages is un-
thinkable. 1t is not desired by en-
lightened employers, to whom good
production and uniform wages are
desirable; cutting of wages, with its
consequent instability, is not at any
time either in their interest or in
that of the nation"
Lady Rhondda urged in her
memorial that artificial restrictions
on the employment of women in in
dustries should be removed, not only
as a measure of justice to the sex,
but in the interests of national in
dustrial efficiency. She asserted that
1t was now threatened to withdraw

war and that in the industries in
which they were invited with
urgency they should now resume the
condition of helots. Such restrictions
on their employment, she declared.
we're artificial, unjust and disgrace
Jul to civilized community.
The present conditions of women's
employment, Lady Rhondda assert
I'd, prevent them from being utilized
in the national interest. Women
were not consulted in the arrange
ments for the reconstruction of in
dustry. She pointed out that while
the government was bound by its
agreement with trade unions, there
are many shops which had sprung up
turing the war in which the govern
nent's bargain with trade unions
,nions would not operate to exclude
women from employment. Women,
she declared are not seeking in in
iustry a renawal of strife, but clear
grant to them of their just rights as
human beings and freedom Of EN-
,loyment. They recognize, she
added. that their claim comes after,

latter need which DR.. McCollum
emphasizes most strongly. He
bases his statements on the results
of many feeding experiments on
animals. What foods do for grow
ing animals-not how they analyzc
chemically-is his special basis OF
nutrition. The foods which seem
absolutely essential for maintain
ing health; that is, the protective
foods, are milk. eggs and the leafy
vegetables.
Faults in Average Dietary.
If one analyses the average diet
airy, it is found to be made up large
ly of seed products, tubers, roots
and meat. All of these, singly or
collectively, are unable to produce
health in mankind, essential though
they be.

sential constituents of a normal

Newer knowledge of

Collum of the Johns Hopkins uni

For a long time we have sus-

was not the only basis of its value
in the diet. Nor was its body

We are not discarding these as
poets of food value-one must have
heat and energy and tissue-building

things.

FORTY CITY BLOCKS
MAY BE REASSESSED
HERE BY TAX BOARD

That the county board of tax re
view has been contemplating the re-
assessment of forty Richmond city
blocks was learned for the first time
Thursday.
The property which the board con-
sidered as valued too low and which
they may decide to reassess is that
lying south of South A and east of
Eighth street, one Of the residence
sections.
A state examiner for the state board
who was here a week ago, was asked
for ruling on the legality of appro-
priating money for such a reassess-
ment, and word was receiver through
newspapers from Indianapolis today
that the expense would be legal, &C
cording to Jesse Eschbach, state exam
iner Of the board of accounts, who
gave this decision to the state tax
board.
However, as the board Of tax review
has only % days left to work, and as
members expressed themselves as be
lieving that to be fair the whole city
should be reassessed instead Of any
one quarter, doubt was expressed
Thursday that the board would order
the reassessment. Also no formal
word was received from Indianapolis.
