Thoroughness of organization goes fur

now educating the public. During all the
sixty days Of the session, when the league
established daily paper next door to its

class and its blackboard were presided over
by Walter Thomas Mills, Socialist lect-

answer and diagram he drilled them in the
nature and purpose of the laws which they
are to explain, defend and build new men,

There's That $40

To begin with there is the famous SIG
Every two years the farmers of the league
create by their membership fees a campaign
fund Of about s3,OOO,0O0. With this fund
A. c. Towney, William Lemke and T. B.
Wood, the three members of the national
executive committee, have done a vast num-
ber of things. They have bought or started
two daily papers in North Dakota, .'The
Fargo CourierNews," an excellently man
aged paper, and "The Grand Forks Ameri-
can" With the aid of organized labor an
other daily is to be started in Minneapolis
this fall The league publishes in St. Paul
and sends to its 2O5OOO members a live
national weekly called "The Nonpartisan
Leader" 1t is good geographically and it
contains we'll written and we'll illustrated
articles on the leagues work in particular
and the progressive movement in general.
The St. Paul headquarters supervises half
a dozen Estate Leaders"-weekly newspa-
pers published in each Of the principal
league states and dealing with the political
fight in each section. "The Minnesota
Leader" reaches $4,000 farmers and their
families; "The North Dakota Leader" so 600
more.
In addition to these carefully edited and
carefully dovetaied Leaders," the league
virtually controls seventy country weekles,
one in every county in North Dakota and
thirty in other states. The ownership of
these usually rests in cooperative associa-
tions of the farmer members of the neigh
borhood, but their editorial policies are
practically dictated from league headquar-
ters. The Northwestern Service Bureau.
hv~ ~nrOd,,ct of
office, sends these papers each week COM
prehenslve editorial and news service, in
Guiding Washington letter and a digest
of state legislative news. 1t supplements
this free service with advice and assist
ance on all problems, from white paper to
a new editor. The weekly service is abso-
lutely workmanlike and efficient; there is
no inside stuff" and no emotional "hot air"
about it. But it does its job of conversion.
Besides the service, which goes to
four hundred other dailies and weeklies.
the league issues a fortnightly page of
"plate" - stereotyped feature stories and
pictures-to one hundred periodicals at so
cents a page. Outside its members, who
get the Leaders," the league probably
reaches a million other farmers through its
news service Here are thoroughness and
enthusiasm and energy, the same sort that
has gone into the chain of cooperative
stores and farmer banks organized through
the subscriptions of members and under
the leagues egis.

And there are thoroughness and enthusi-
asm and energy in the way the league puts
it's programme into political operation. In
the same election which gave the Nom
partisan League all but one of the state
Offices of North Dakota and two thirds of
the Legislature the league completely re-
vamped the state constitution. A "blood-
less revolution" is hardly extravagant

Shortage Of Help No Longer

Are Wanted However.

The labor situation in this district is
fairly we'll cared for now, according
to a statement made by federal en-
ployment agents here this morning. A
large number of laborers were as
signed to work in various localities
this morning and the Office is prac-
tically caught up to the orders Of the
farmers.
The latter part of last week the de-
mand for farm laborers greatly ex-
ceeded the supply and it was evident
that the situation might become seri-
workers have been coming in from
points in Montana. and Minnesota,
while Fargo has also been able to send
a number of men to this district.
Although labor shortage has been
averted, there is still a brisk demand
for farm help.
A good start has been secured in
harvesting the Grand Forks county
crop and several farmers are already
releasing their men for other work,
The harvest this ear is going more
by fields than sections. judging from
the work of the threshers.
Many Pay BY Hour.
| The farmers of this district seem tc
be taking strongly to the system
of paying farm workers by the hour
In other years the farmers have more
generally paid straight day wages.
This system seems to provide better
for overtime work and for time lost
during Indictment weather and is gen
orally more agreeable to both EN-
plOyer and employe.
