EGGS GOING UP.
Two Cents Higher Than Last
Week, and No Prospect of
Decline.

Eggs at Easter are going to come high
this year according to present indications.
Instead of doing the usual flop about
Palm Sunday, eggs flew upward last
Saturday and may take another upward
movement between now and next Satur-
day.
Today's prices here, are 53 and 55 cents
for freshest eggs and 80 and 80 cents for
the inferior grade. They gained two
points last Saturday Dealers said today
they could not assure the public that eggs
will be any cheaper between now and
Easter. II they do go down at all, it will
be only a cent or two. which would leave
the prices where they were last Friday.
At least, this is what the dealers said to-
day.
These high prices will make the pick

Paul D. Kellar, chief prohibition
agent for this district, in Minot yes
terday for a few hours for a confer
ence with federal agents working in
this section, announced that federal
agents in Minneapolis and St. Paul
have learned that men prominent in
the whiskey smuggling, with head
quarters in St. Paul, have offered
$4,000 to the gunman who "gets" F.
w. Watkins, chief of North Dakota
state law enforcement officers who
has led the state offensive against
whiskey runners.
One of the purposes of Mr.. Keller's
trip to Minot was to warn Watkins
Of the plot. Watkins stated today that
such a plot will in no way halt his
drive against whiskey smuggling and
he served notice on the gunmen who
attempts to do the killing to make
certain that they fire first.
"Similar threats have been made
against me in the past" Mr.. Watkins
said, "and they have not alarmed me.
I intend to continue my work against
law violators in North Dakota and if
any twin city gunner set out to get
me they had better make certain that
they shoot first"
Mr.. Watkins is one of the states
crack rifle shots and has his hand
on his Winchester rifle every time he
halts a whiskey runners automobile.

man went into the woods in opposite
directions and that Mr.. Hoffman came
across the tracks Of a wounded deer

while figure appeared ahead of Mr..

ion, the bullet entering Mr.. Balke's
left side at point just above the hip
bone and lodging in the body. Mr.. Bal
Ike lived two hours after the shooting

WHY NO CREDIT
FOR THE farmer?
U. S. BANKING RESOURCES $5s-
600, 100000. YET FARMERS
- FACE RUIN

Price reduction are estimated to
have reduced farm products $4,500,-
100000 in value.
The farmers in their appeals to the
Federal reserve board, have brought
to light facts and figures that pro-
woke many inquiries in their behalf.
They point out that, according to the
comptroller of currency, the banking
resources of the United States amount
to $53,079, 100000. These resources,
according to the same authority,
.sbreak all records anywhere, exceed
ing the combined bank assets Of all
other leading nations of the world"
It is also known that the United
States is the credit reservoir OF the
globe; that it possesses one-third OF
the gold of the world and has ten
times the credit resources that it had
twenty years ago.
Yet there is no credit for the farm
ers, the cotton planters, the cattle
raisers and the wool growers. Despite
the fact that U. s. farm products are
valued at $4,000, 100000 year, the
farmers. are going broke, face ruin,
in fact, not as individuals, but as an
entire class.
The farmers allege that they are
being sabotaged by the banks (which"
as one paper says twill not give them
credit until they can >realize a price
at least sufficient to cover the cost
of production" :.
But why should the banks extend
credit to the farmers? It is more
profitable for them to call in loans
and compel the farmers to sell their
products at ruinous prices than to
pull the whole financial structure
down to the ground. With ruinous
prices for farm products, the loans
Of banks abroad, will be made more
secure and profitable by cheap food
exports. Europe must be rehabilitat-
ed'' by high dividend loans and in
vestments and by cheap food from the
U. S. 1t all works out to the bene-
fit of the financiers. AS for the farm
ers-'the farmers be damned, espec-
tally as they must necessarily be op-
posed to the financial oligarchy which
bleeds them in season and out OF sea-

Dear Sir:
To my mind the recent letter from
Mr.. Arthur White in regard to Mr..
Hatfield and his efforts to induce rain
covers about all the ground, if we
can succeed in getting enough people
interested in the matter to hove some
thing like he suggests done, and done
in time, before Mr.. Hatfield has signed
contracts elsewhere covering tho
months of June, July and August,
1921. read a letter recently from
Idaho, stating the writer was living
some so miles from where the expert
ment was tried Il understood in July
1920) and that it was complete sue
cess there and it was so stated by the
authorities of Idaho University.
Doubtless if Mr.. Aamodt would be
willing to write the above "U" we
could get from first hand, information
as to the truth of that statement. In
asmuch as we pay nothing until after
we get given number Of inches Of
rainfall as per contract, surely enough
farmers, bankers, business men and
others can be found in this county,
broadminded enough to be willing to
try. There will be doubling Thomases
there always are-but that matters
not. Enough moisture to raise an aver
age crop again, is almost as necessary
to business men in the towns as to
tae farmers putting in the 1921 crop.
Let's go to it before it's too late. In
case we cannot hear direct from Mr..
Hatfield because of his absence from
home ,Mr. Fred A. Binney wrote me
about Oct. 1st that he would under
take (for the sum of one thousand
dollars, payable to him upon the same
conditions as Mr.. Hatfield's, to locate
him and get US the necessary con-
tracts signed up. Mr.. Binney was Mr..
Hatfield's manager at San Diego, Cal.
for several years but at that time
(Oct. 1st 1920) was not in touch with
him. I have heard of something like
one thousand dollars being offered by
a half dozen Bottineau County men
running from $4,000 to $4,000 by
each man, which seems to indicate
that there is interest enough in the
proposition if we can "get it together"
in united effort.
However, think like Mr.. White,
the proper method would be through
uor County Agent and County Com
missioners cooperating. The grass
hopper fund, or levy upon each
quarter section. Won't some one else
make few suggestions and help US
put this across for the good Of all in
Bottineau County?
