LIFE MUST Be ROSY
INDEED IN DAKOTA

In North Dakota the Non Partisan
league with its socialistic leaders and
advisers has enacted a law very much
like single tax according to the story
of MIR. and Mrs. Gilbert Teien. of Far
go who are here today on an auto
trip to the northwest.
Under the plan in vogue land not
Immediately in use is classed as specu-
lative and heavily taxed. A farmer
will be taxed lightly on the 100 acres
on which he lives but must pay an ex-
cessive tax on any additional land.
Mrs. Teien tells an instance of a wo-
man who owns a hotel on a corner lot.
The tax last year was $3.50 and the
same tax was imposed on virtually
unused lot adjoining. A man cannot
afford to own houses to rent in Da-
kota because the taxes are confisca-
tory. The visitors say that in the
state banks in Dakota only four per
cent of the employees and officials are
real residents of the state. The others
are imported socialists. These of
ficials'' have INDUCED in sharp prac-
tice SO much that people are afraid
to trust them. On receiving check
from a league banker men will first
convert it into cash and then pro-
coed with the business in hand. They
are afraid the check Will not be good
If held even for a short time.

GOOD ADVICE ABOUT SEEDS

The time is now approaching when
the ranchers will be giving attention
to their spring purchases of garden
and field seeds-a very important part
of their business. In keeping with this
thought the advice is given by one Of
the local ranchers that is worthy of
consideration:
81 think the paper should send out
word of warning about the spring
seed business. Do you know that the
mail order seed business is one of
the reasons why for the past few
years our gardens have been a losing
proposition These distant seed deal
ers send out alluring catalogues that
have the faculty of reaching the farm
ers on the first warm days of spring
after long period of inactivity, when
he is "rarin'" to go and he falls for
their bunk. Big, juicy, red tomatoes,
egg plants that make your mouth wa
ter, cantaloupes and watermelons that
one can almost taste and beautiful
garden flowers that make the room
dizzy with their odors are shown in
such way that you want to get
the order off today-and the shrewd
mail order men tell you that if you de-
lay until the last minute you won't get
any seeds at all because the supply is
limited and we bite again, and send off
an order for seed you know not and
pay the same prices. or higher, and
the postage besides, than the local
merchants can sell you.
"We can buy our seeds just as
cheaply from local dealers and know
what we are getting. The dealers
handle the seeds they know do best
in this locality, They stand back of
them because they are from reliable
growers. have found that seed
bought from the local merchants have
given better satisfaction for the past
ten years than the mail order stuff,
and besides that can buy cheaper at
home, too."-Richland Advocate.
