FARMERS PICNIC

Big things are planned FOR the
Farmers Picnic at Secman Park on
Friday of this week.
This picnic is not a political propo-
sition in any sense Of the word. It is
being fostered to great extent by
the Farm Bureau, composed OF men
of all shades Of political opinion, ana
has the active support Of the county
agent.
There will be plenty Of sports anc
other entertainment. Bismarck is
scheduled to meet the local team in
ball game, and the ladies Of Linton
are preparing dinner that evening
at the park. Z
There will be dance in the evening.

HORSES FOR SALE IN EMMONS
COUNTY

Do you wish to get rid of your
surplus horses at fair prices? The
winter is long and hay feeds high.
This time of the year there is a de-
mand for small or light horses in the
south and for rough horses in the lum-
Der camps, and not for the good draft
horse. Draft horses sell best in the
spring.
Mr.. Ed. Delaney, the horseman
of Valley City, informs us that he
will conduct series of sales in the
state beginning October 1st-one or
two sales in each county, provided at
least rs horses are entered. His
terms are: One dollars entrance fee
and two dollars additiona: If sold.
Owner reserves right to bid in if. not
satisfied.
County Agent Sauer has consulted
the Farm Bureau Executive committee
in regard to this matter, and the ma
jority of them have expressed them
selves in favor of this sale as there
are practically no sales for this class
of stuff locally. It is now up to the
farmers having horses to sell to list
them with County Agent Sauer at
Linton. If only rs horses are listed
only one sale will be arranged for
at the town most centrally located.
If $50 or more are listed, two sales
will be arranged for. If only one sale
is held it will be at Linton very likely.
If two sales are arranged for, they
will very likely be held at Strasburg
and Hazelton. Horses must be listed
before Sept. 10th.
Mr.. Delaney brings buyers, does
his own auctioneering on terms stated
above, and the county agent and Farm
Bureau have no interest in these sales
other than to be of service to EN-
mons county farmers.
One thing more-have your horses
fat or in good condition, for two rea-
sons: First, they look better; secondly,
they must stand shipping long dis
tance. If you really want to sell
them it pays to have them in good
condition.

YEATER TO RUN AGAIN

In the primary election, the league
lost one Of their local candidates for
the legislature when Mike Scherr, OF
Strasburg, failed to land. Dne Of
the reasons for Scherr's failure was
no doubt his inability to talk the Eng
lish language which made him incom-
petent to sit in the legislature. The
leaguers have now met and have de.
.cided to run Roy Yeater in the inde-
pendent column. The man they hope
to defeat is E. H. Anderson, of Lin
ton.
Mr.. Anderson will be hard, hard
man to head off. He is one Of the
republican candidates. He will az,
pear in the same place with three
leaguers. And he is known all
through the county as q successful fal.
ue@ and stock man. And he can't

with finger below and alongside of
wind2ipe against the spine, and there
you check the carotid artery. If the
wound is on the side of the neck and
blood is flowing fast, it is the jugular
vein which is cut. Press with finger
above the wound and you will check
bleeding. Both of these wounds may
come from an auto accident where one
is thrown ON the broken windshield.
If the arm is torn out from the socket,
or is crushed, or severed high in the
arm, press on the subclavion artery,
which crosses the first rib, almost az
the base Of the neck behind the collar
bone. -
If the wound is below the shoulder.
press on the branchial artery on in
side Of arm, against bone, or if the
wound is in the hand or wrist, put
medium sized pad of tightly folded
paper in bend of arm and fiex limb
and tie it so. Or make tourn1quet
and put on brachial artery Gas above),
fold something hard, as penknife,
smooth stone or piece of wood, in q
handkerchief, tie somewhat loose over
center of arm, put pad to protect
arm under knob, and take pencil or
piece of short stick and twist hand
kerchief on outside of limb and hold
or tie tight. This will compress ar
terry and prevent further loss of blood.
For lower limb, the femoral artery
is on the inside of the thigh, about
where the seam of mans breeches
run, and at upper third of thigh where
there seems to be hollow spot. A
tourniquet may be placed there a.

be quite prominent, as large cork;

large proportion of the wheat un.
necessarily. The wheat which shat
ters out at thrashing around the ma.
chine and stack, can most Of It be
saved, but wheat lost in the field is
not only wasted. but causes trouble
by growing volunteer crop which Is
often undesirable.
Great care should be taken to insure
that the thrashing machine is well
cleaned of snutted grain from other
farms, or undesirable mixtures or
weed seeds, and it Is therefore a good
idea to run the machine empty for
some time. going over it and cleaning
1t thoroughly.
Marquis wheat which has become
the standard for the Northwest, should
he kept pure and undefiled. Wheat
Is always likely to become mixed If
not watched. and mixed wheat is never
so profitable as the one good variety.

FARM BUREAU BRIEFS

It's good business sense to make a
start in the sheep business now while
rrices are low. Western fuli-mouth
ewes can be bought at from So to Sc
per head, and young ewes, that is
yearlings, twos and threes for around
81 and So. 1t is the belief uf the
big sheep men that the present wool
depression is only temporary and that
the prospects for profitable sheep
raising in the future, with the orig,
inal investment low, is exceedingly
promising.
We may be severely criticized for
making this statement, but we can't
help it-common scnse prompts US to
do it: After investigating the wide
difference in yields and other peculiar
'ocal conditions, and also taking into
consideration the recent changed rui-
ing of the Workmen's Compensation
Bureau, we feel that the threshers OF
the county should not be bound to
the prices adopted at thresiers'
meeting Aug. 14th.
Don't miss reading the article else
where in this issue entitled "Horst.
Sales in Emmons County" and if It
appeals to you, list your horses with
the County Agent soon, so we can
arrange for these sales.

HOW TO STOP BLEEDING

The oldest book in the world made
this statement three thousand years
before Harvey discovered the circula-
tion of the blood: "For the life of the
flesh is the blood!" That is scien-
tific fact and still holds true. Then,
too, there is but about twelve pounds
troy weight, of blood in matured
body, and consequently no one can af-
ford to lose much. for if they do. one
Of two things will occur, either they
will die, or, if kept alive, it will take
long time to recover strength. lost
from the excessive blood letting.
Nature has done wonderful thing
in regard to the arteries. She has
placed them next to the bones so that
all you have to do is toipress them
against the bone in case the wound
is severe, as in crushed or severed
limb, or where one is cut through q
bad wound. But, remember, if an
artery is severed you always press
between the wound and the heart,
since arterial blood is flowing from
the heart. If it is a vein which Is
out, you press on the opposite side Of
the wound from the heart, as venous
blood is flowing to the heart. But
possibly, you ask, "How does one know
which is which?"
Arterial blood comes out in spur+r
as- ierks, in keeping with the -flea.-
'tas,a and is bright crimson, while

LEAGUE IAPER FULL OF l.UNIi

Last weeks issue of the local or
gan was hummer. It claimed Ell
mer Anderson was "an 1. V. A. can
didate." 1t simply lied. Mr.. Ander-
son is not even a member OF the /
V. A. It also claims Anderson de-
feated Scherr by "a small majority. y
Wonder what that outfit considers a
small majority.
The league organ also attempts to
deny that Minnie Nelson was robbed
cf many of her powers as state super
intendent, and denies that she has
been robbed of the power to fix the
course of study for the common
schools. Geo. Totten and his gang
have appointed a commission 20 pre-
pare new course of study, duty
formerly belonging only to the state
superintendent. Therefore the league
press lies again.
The league press says H. 3. 1s
creating the Bank of North Dakota
gave the farmers and laboring men ar
opportunity to engage in the banking
business. Another lie. The main
thing it did was to give the Townley
gang control of all public funds and
to give Cathro a $4,000 salary ana
expenses, and the league bosses a
chance to provide their private bank
ing institutions with state funds to be
sucked out as in the case of the Scan
dinavian State Bank.
The league paper also proclaims in
big headlines that Wallace proposes to
eliminate the state tax levy Of 1921 /.
And the "nigger in the wood-pile" is
that he proposes to substitute 1ncreas-
ed income tax burdens to substitute
the funds. Whew! Some politica.
taking.
The local league organ also says
the Bank.0f North Dakota turned in
100000 of it's earnings to take UP
the interest on the Bank of North Da>
kota bonds. Some earnings ? Any
county, township or school treasurer
can tell you where those ia a; 1gs"
came from-cut of the r-:.-ts of the
local taxpayers. More political bunk.
The local league raoe- also inform.
us that under the immigration bill
thousands Of immigrants have already
been attracted to our state. LOOK
around you, Mr.. Voter, and take no
tice of those thousands Of immi-
grants" Simply another black-faced
lie.
And then the local league shee.
rounds out its weeks work by gloating
over the fact that Fay Harding has
succeeded in pulling down Job as
"chuffer' for Townley in a "super-
six" Some drop from being men,
Der Of the r.torious smelling comm. !.
tee to becoming Townley's footman.
But, then, Fay must have means o.
living now that the voters have been
SO unkind as to head off his nifty little
smelling committee job.

LEGION CONVENTION

The Second Annual Convention OF
the American Legion for North Da-
kota was held at Minot on W<adnes-
day and Thursday Of last week, and
proved to be high. interesting af-
fair.
Considerable Of the time was de-
voted to listening to talks by repre-
sentatives of the various government
al agencies that deal with the former
service men.
The delegates has explained to them
the method being used to get >in
touch with all service men who might
have compensation CT vocational train
ing claims against the government.
Twenty-Five local men in the state
have been appointed to check up
their district and to get in touch
with men who were sick or injured
during the service, or who later be-
came SO through their service.
There are no doubt hundreds o.
cases in which men are entitled to
governmental assistance who do not
themselves appreciate the fact. Any
man who was seriously i'll or wound
ed, and who is suffering in any way
at the present time, should get in
touch with his local post OF the Amer
lean Legion where all necessary infor-
nation will be given him.
Another matter discussed was the
government insurance. Many mer
did not grasp the facts concerning
this insurance, and have allowed the
same to lapse. Many reinstatements
are being made, and all service men
may rest assured that they will make
a saving of 25 per cent on their gov
ernment insurance, and they will also
receive important disability provisions
that are not found in policies written
by private concerns.
The next meeting of the local post
of the American Legion will be held
in the club rooms this evening, and
all service men arc asked to attend.
These matters will be taken up more
fully, and there will be election of Of.
ficers and other important business.
A lunch will be served after the bus
mess meeting.
The Record man served in the con-
vention as chairman of the resolutions
committee, and was also nominated
as one of the delegates at large to
the national convention at Cleveland,
Ohio, but was defeated by ,our vo:es.
Two of the delegates chosen had 1ss

WOMEN TO VOTE

The women will vote on all issues
this fall, and it will be necessary for
them to spend some time during tie
next two months in getting acquainted
with the details cf their new duties.
The women voters should make it a
point to follow the political discus
sions. They should get familiar with
the large ballots, and how TO vote
them. And they should work among
their neighbors.
If the women are to prove that suf-
frage was not d mistake, it b,hooves
them to devote some time and energy
to politics, for the reason that they
will just about double the vote to be
cast on the various issues.
In Emmons county local women in
each precinct should make it a poin,
to take an active hand in the game.
VIM. johnson is the secretary Of the
Independent forces in the county, ana
women who will volunteer to help
politically in their neighborhoods
should communicate with W. a. john
son at Linton.
4 Meetings will later be held through
out the county, and the women should
make it q point to. turn out in equal
proportions with their men-1olks. :.
And, last but not least, they should
make up their minds to see to it that
all of them get to the polls on cleo
tion day.
