POTATO PRICES

Few commodities grown on a farm
vary to a greater extent in price during
the year than potatoes. When the farmer
harvests them he wants to sell them They
ar hard to keep. and retaining them in
wolves more or less expense, and some
danger of loss from decay. They are
not like wheat or corn. to be placed in a
crib or bin and forgotten. So most of the
potatoes are sold as soon as they are dug.
The only people prepared to store and
keep potatoes are the commission men
and storage people, and they are the ones
best in position to buy up the crop. The
people pay no attention to the size of the
crop. They buy potatoes and eat them

GEORGE WASHINGTON LIVES TO-
DAY: A PRAYER FULFILLED

One hundred and thirty one years ago
George Washington was inaugurated as
President Of the United States for his
first term. The ceremonial investment
of the new nations first citizen with the
honors and obligations Of its highest Of
flee occurred in the Senate chamber in
the city of New York. The oath of office
was administered by Robert r. Livings-
ton, the chancellor of the State of New
York. That gentleman, when his solemn
part in the inauguration was completed
called out to the people in full, strong
voice:
Long live George Washington, Presi-
dent of the United States"
The Father of his country survived in
the flesh, this historical occasion by half
a score of wears, but for century and
third his wisdom, his provision, his cour-
age. his caution have endured to inspire
and to guide his fellow countrymen in
the direction of public affairs.
Through the mutations and chances of
unprecedented growth, through years in
which progress in the application to hui
man purposes of natural laws produced
social and economic revolutions with be-
wildering frequency, the nation to whose
call Geo. Washington responded in 1889
as he had responded in 1775, has held
close to the chart of craftsmanship he
drafted for it.
Thus the hope and prayer of Chancel-
lor Livingston that George Washington,
President Of the United States, should
live long has been granted, for he lives
today in his works, whose supreme value
and unimpaired strength have once more
been demonstrated in this the one hun
dred and forty-fourth year Of American
independence.
The republic continues the free and in
dependent nation George Washington
would have it, and his simple, wise, and
true teachings, animating people de-
voted to freedom, have stripped interna-
tionalism Of its cloak of false pretense-.

without regard to whether there are few
or many of them Then along about this
time of year we hear they are scarce.
Then the commission men, who gambled
when they brought them up, began to
boost the prices.
The potatoes now on hand cost the
comission and storage people certain
price last fall, and they are entitled to
fair profit Any man in Logan will grant
the justice of this But when it comes to
charging such prices for potatoes as
prevail at this time it is nothing short Of
outrageous. 1t cannot be justified by say
ing there are few potatoes, nor by stat
ing that man who takes risks is entitled
to remuneration. The men who bought
the potatoes last fall are simply taking
advantage Of an opportunity ito gouge
the public. And it is certainly about time
the public is given some kind of protec-
ton from such outrages.

A Slight Ripple In Politics

One of the first ripples of political
activity to make it's presence appar-
ent in the papers over the county
waa to be found On the front page Of
the Milton Globe last week, where
the debut was mace of the candidacy
of the Cavalier Go. Republican for its
designation by the voters as the Off
cisl county paper, There was also an
anonymously signed letter, in which
the breach was widened between the
rival candidates for the office of
sheriff. What ga. Voter had
had to say of Kelland and Laing,
with the Globe as its mouthpiece will
not turn out as propaganda of the
right sort. In the meantime let them
scrap it out and the farmers candi-
date, Edward Greene, of Mona, with
a nonpartisan league endorsement
will walk away with the winning
votes while the jangle continues.

'ToNights Benefit for Missionary

An event for this evening is a So
cial gathering in the Presbyterian
church which is being arranged by a
committee OF ladies of Langdon, The
beneficiary of the affair is to Be Miss
Dleterle, for number of years z mis-
sionary in China and quite we'll
known by many Langdon people. A
short program will be contributed to
by local talent and a number of talks
given upon missionary life and work
at home and abroad, Later refreshs
ments will be served and general
informal social hour enjoyed. Miss
Dleterle, who at her mission station
in far away China is. to be the re-
clplent of the financial returns, has
on number of occasions visited
Langdon and spoken of her life work
in China, which is undenominational
and along the same lines as that be-
ing done in this state by the Florence
Crittenden home. The supper: for
the splendid work she's engaged
In comes entirely from voluntary per.
snnal contributions. Tonight's event,
planned by Miss Dieterle's friends
will give many Langdon people the
opportunity they have desired to
give their substantial approval Of
what she is doing for the uplift of
the women of China.

Grain DOCkage
Saving Dollars
Local Farmers Realize Big
Dividends Under This
League Measure

Two instances right here in this
county have lately beer brought un-
der the attention OF the Farmers
Press that point out the saving to
the farmer that the State Inspection
of Dockage and Grading of Grain has
meant since it was added to the pro-
gram of laws enacted by the non
partisan administration at the last
session of the state legislature. The
cases to point are briefly outlined
as follows.

cinity of Calvin received in payment

els of wheat the sum of $187. SO, the
shipment was made to the Equity
Cooperative Exchange at St. Paul
and except for what is known as the
grain dockage law this would have
been clear profit to the buyer of
something that rightfully belonged to
the farmer who marketed the wheat.
Jules Chaput, a farmer south of
Langdon and known all over the east
ern half of the county, has an exper-
ience in the handling of car load of
over 1000 bushels of wheat and
flax that he shipped to the Cargill
Elevator Co, After inspection un-
der the dockage law it was found
Mr.. Chaput had $217, rs more COM
ing to him than what the wheat and
flax represented. In the car was about
four tons of mustard seed worth $50
a ton and which netted him $217. rs,
that except for the dockage law just
enacted would have gone into the
! packet Of tina elevator company.

Roy Horgan. along with Albert Drury

their services to the country when it

in the U. S. Marines and were to-

engagement in which both were
wounded, one being destined to die
and the other to live and return
home. 1t is to be expected that the
occasion Of the interment of the re-
