EXPENSIVE EDUCATION

Fargo Forum: The "Success" OF
the Consumers United Stores Co. is
best told in their own statement.
They have "taken in" 1000 men,
bers for 500 apiece, representing
91,100,000.
They have thirty-five stores and
the maximum stock which they
agreed $4,000. That represents, at
a very generous outside figure, $780,
600 now invested. The rest of the
money has gone for educational pur-
poses." The farmers have $750,0OO
Of education" concealed about them
some place.
On that showing, the directors ap-
pealed for more cash and credit to
complete stock Of goods" and they
claim they got $4,000 in cash and
$3s4,000 in credit.
The enterprise is now supposed to
be cooperative one, the former hold
ers Of certificates being stockholders.
Do any of them ever wonder what
they might have done in a genuine
cooperative venture with the $780,
COO they paid for education"

It is interesting to read the Town
ley kept press of this state trying to
excuse themselves for the high taxes.
They say that the state does not get
but small portion of this increase,
the rest of it goes to the county,
township and school fund. Any sane
man knows that the state does not
receive the increase in the county and
township taxes. The fact Of the mat
ter is the Townley politicians wanted
money. They had depleted the state
treasury the first six months they
were in power and in order to pay
their numerous office holders they had
to increase the taxes by special leg
islation which they did. The increase
of course increased all the other
taxes. If they had not rassed their
special tax bill the farmer this year
would have paid approximately the
same amount of taxes they did in pre-
vious years. The demagogue who
tried to convince you that the Town
ley administration is not responsible
for the increase in taxes is either ig-
norant or. he is telling you a lie-and
we believe the latter.

The Pioneer Express publishes in
another column communication from
Hon. William Pleasance of Akra. It
was intended for a personal letter but
it contained so many things of inter-
est to the average reader that we take
the privilege of reproducing it in
print. Mr.. Pleasance was elected on
the Nonpartisan ticket two years ago.
He qualified as one, but, like Attor-
ney General LANCER, it did not take
him long to see how the Townley ma
chine was sacrificing the peoples in
terests for personal gains and he was
the first one to call halt as far as
his vote went. If the rest of our rep
resentatives had done like Mr.. Pleas
ance did their chances for represent
ing the people of this county in the
future would have been much better
than it is. This state requires men
with backbone to relegate the i'm
ported politicians who are swamping
the state with their class legislation.

A COMMUNICATION

The Pioneer Express is in receipt
of communication reporting the
meeting held at Toilette last week,
in which Senator Wexford and Mr..
Wasson discussed the Nonpartisan
and I. V. A. issues. 1t came too late
for publication, but we would have
been glad to have reproduced the
same had it arrived in time. Not
that it contained any information as
to the merits or demerits of the
speakers talk, but the evasive way
the writer had of trying to cover up
the purposes of the meeting was
amusing. One place he says "there
was a meeting of citizens held in the
town hall, Toilette for the purpose
Of getting the township grain grow
ers sentiment on the advisability of
sending petition to our representa-
tives in congress to use all their in
fiuence in securing guaranteed mini
mum and maximum price for wheat
for 1920" A little farther down the
article the writer forgets himself and
then goes on, Although the meeting
was called for caucus and business
discussion of the Nonpartisan Lea
gue." The communication is full of
glaring statements like we q uote
above and it really contains nothing
but that Senator Wexford had called
the meeting and he allowed Mr.. Was
son to speak twenty minutes at the
opening and the senator spoke an
hour and a half without Mr.. Wasson
having chance to answer.

to go with it, and we believe the mid
die class will be benefited If it does.

Howard Eastman Of Carlisle was
in the city Saturday and he took q
spare moment to discuss the tax stu
alton that is interesting everybody
just at this time. Mr.. Eastman has
been clerk Of Carlisle township most
of the time for twenty-five years and
he is familiar with the doings Of the
township board. Mr.. Eastman said
that the board spent less money last
year than the years previous, and the
taxes are much higher than what
they were last year. There was no
more levy made at the annual town.
ship meeting. The only solution to
the question is said MI. Eastman that
the state administration wanted more
money and they passed the bill in
creasing the valuation which was the
cause of the raise. The township of
Carlisle always paid their warrants
and had money in the treasury and
they do not need this raise, and near
ly everybody resents it.

At the close Of the Civil war wheat
sold at three dollars bushel and a
keg of nails at eight dollars per hun
dred- pounds, according to statistics.
Then suddenly the prices went to
pieces and wheat sold for sixty cents

keg. How long these inflated prices
we are having will continue remains
to be seen. A dollar is worth less

This Little Woman
Weighed 90Pounds
Takes Tanlac and Now She Weighs
Exactly One Hundred and
Fifteen Pounds

"When I first began taking Tanlac
I only weighed ninety pounds, but I
now weigh one hundred and fifteen"
was the remarkable statement made
by Mrs. E. J. Straw of 710 Crocker
ST., DesMoines, Iowa, in an interview
recently.
81 really thought I was not going
to get WE'LL" she continued" so my
wonderful recovery has made me one
of the happiest woren in Iowa. I
just want everybody to know what
Tanlac has done for me. I honestly
believe it has saved my life.
"Just about one year ago I was
taken down with influenza, which left
my kidneys all out of order and my
stomach in such a bad condition I
could not eat without suffering after
wards. Of course, like anyone will,
who is in bad health, I tried every
thing possible in my efforts to find
something to build me up but in place
of getting stronger, I kept getting
weaker. My nerves were in such a
bad shape that the least noise would
upset me. I could not do any of my
housework and had to spend most Of.
my time in bed. I felt discouraged
and respondent and worried continu-
ally over my dreadful condition,
which seemed beyond the reach Of
medicine.
Seeing Tanlac so highly recon-
mended I decided to try it, and I be-
lieve it has been god-send to me.
At the time I began taking it I had
been down in bed for three weeks and
had almost despaired of ever getting
we'll, but I had not finished my first
bottle until I was up and about.
Then it wasn't long until was able
to prepare the meals for my family
and was soon able to do all my house.
work. I have taken seven bottles
now and every one Of them has been
worth its weight in gold to me. I
have actually gained twenty-five
pounds in weight and if one could
feel like a new person I do. Before
taking Tanlac l was also suffering
with bad case Of neuritis in my
right shoulder. I had not been able
in six months to comb my hair. But
that, like all the rest Of my troubles,
is entirely gone and ! am now enjoy
ing the best Of health. can never
nraise Tanlac enough for what it has
done for me-.

wheat states in eradicating the bar
berry. Over two million barberry
bushes were dug out in these states
in 1919. In North Dakota III bar
berries were found and dug out in
1919. The plan is to go over the
states county by county and make a
thorough eradication. The $4,000
is about enough to get over three
counties. If North Dakota and the
other states would put in as much as
the federal government, more than
twice as rapid progress could be made

INSURE A CROP IN DRY YEAR

Many farmers even in the dry
years raise a good crop. AS exam
ination of their methods shows that
they use moisture conserving methods
as raising corn and potatoes or sum-
merfallowing. Two things are ac-
complished in this way. Some mois-
ture is stored in the soil, weeds are
killed and weeds rob the crops of
moisture and the soil is put in bet
tel condition. A part of the farm
put into potatoes, corn or summer
fallow will insure an-increased return
the following year.
