Wheat Cheaper
Than Hog Feed;
Facts Brot Home

You all know Elmer Eddy who
farms in Bossho township. A few
days ago Mr.. Eddy hauled in load
of wheat. The net weight Of the
wheat and screenings was 1890
pounds. The total bushels were 81.
His load was docked bushels and
10 pounds He received $1.63 per
bpshel which netted him $S8.
Now if MIR. Eddy had ground his
wheat and wild oats together and
had sold it at the price of bran, he
would have received $9S.54 or &c.
54 more than he received selling IL
for wheat. This is an understands
able explanation of how wheat Is
cheaper than ordinary hog feed, and
shows that a stae-owned mill could
make profits now even by buying
wheat and selling it for hog feed.
And still some of you contend that
the farmers of the Northwest have
no right~to organize politically. In
the face of such facts, he has per-
feet right, 1t would seem, to organ
ize in any way that would seem like
ly to ward OF the sure death with
which he is threatened.

Mass Meeting of
Stockholders Set
for Sat-, Nov. l3

The stockholders of the Roberts
County Press Inc, are earnestly
requested to be present at meeting
to be held at the court house next
Saturday, Nov 13. A meeting OF
the stockholders was called for last
Saturday, but owing to the short
notice given great majority were
not informed and, as a result, there
We're only few present. But it was
decided to hold the meeting this
coming Saturday, and notices have
been sent to all those holding stock
in the company, requesting that
they be present at this time 1t is
also urged that each stockholder
bring with him just as many of his
neighbors and acquaintances as he
possibly can, for it should he remem-
bered that this is not going to be an
exclusive stockholders meeting,
but it is to be in the form Of a mass
meeting of the farmers Of this part
OF the county. We will have Mr..
A. F. Lockhart with us to address
the meeting, and we know he will
have something of real interest to
tell you. He was present at the
meeting last Saturday and gave a
splendid talk. The only unfortu-
nate part of it was that there were
not thousand farmers there 20
hear him, for he delivered an ad-
dress that was really an inspiration
and full of good, sound, convincing
argument Don't fail to hear him
Saturday.
There are matters of grave i'm
portance to come before the meeting
Saturday, and it is sincerely hoped
that all stockholders will do their
utmost to make the meeting a sue
cess. We want to make it a real
stockholders mass meeting, and il
you will come yourself and bring
along at least one friend there will
be no need for excuses afterward.

DayVis
Observed With a
B;gDemonstration

The Armistce Day program given
by the American Legion yesterday
was complete success, altho the
cold and unsettled weather pre-
vented many from attending who
would have enjoyed taking part.
The parade was especially good.
a good many soldiers turned out i'm
uniform, and together with the Sis
seton and Wilmot bands, forming
one large band, made the column
lang and impressive.
The column was formed in front
of the Woodman hall at 2:3O o'clock,
and paraded the main street as tar
as Shindler Bros. and Thompson's
hardware stores, from where it did
left turn to the school house. The
program at the school auditorium
opened with a selection by the ANAL
gamated bands. Mayor Bunde act
| ed as the chairman, and introduced
the sneakers fittingly. Rer. Cunlff
was the first speaker, and gave
very interesting talk on the neces-
sity of instilling in the hearts OF the
people Of the world the message or
love. 'sUnitl this is DONE" he said,
eve shall continue to have wars"
Commander Raisch of Sioux Falls
made long address explaining the
soldier mind. He mentioned many
of the traits OF soldier, and un-
doubtedlv solved good deal of the
mystery that has been attached to
| the returning OF soldier from COM
batant service. He explained the
purpose of the American Legion at
length, and brought his explanation
ia climax by exhibiting the Stars
and Stripes as the most forceful ex-
ponent of what the Legion stands
for. He also analysed the disloyal-
lists Of the country, and submitted
arguments purporting to show the
causes and classes Of them.
A girls octette rendered selec.
tion, which was much appreciated
The audience sang the Star Spang'
led Banner at the close and wers
accompanied by the band.
The auditorium was filled to CO
pacity, many OF whom were ex-ser
vice men.

CUMMINs ACT
(By Laurence Todd)

Staff Cor. for Federated Press
Washington, Nov. 9.-Railroad
managers are now engaged in a dem
onstration of their ability to evade
labor provisions of the Cum
Minis act, with the probable result
that strike will be forced upon
1000, 600 railroad workers.
The transportation act continued
the national agreement between the
shop and maintenance employees
unions and the companies; pending
the settlement of new conditions by
the railroad labor board. The Penn
sylvania, the Erie, the New York
Central the Wabash, the Seaboard
Air Line and numerous other trunk
lines in all parts of the country have
begun to let their shop work to sep
arate corporations, or even to incor-
porate their own shop departments
as separate companies, as means
of escaping the necessity of dealing
directly and peacefully with union
labor.
Many thousands of men have been
dismissed from the railroad shops,
according to information received
hv union officials here, while con-
tracts for shop work have been dis
tributed among private concerns in
