AN OPPORTUNITY TO FARMERS

Since the failure of the county cleo
torate to approve an appropriation for
agricultural extension, the BOOKINGS
county farm bureau directors have de
cided that this county is o large
and important to be inactive in pro
noting better farming conditions and
that the farmers canno afford to be
left out of this great organization so
they will stage . membership cam
paign among their fellow farmers in
the county to organize themselves into
a body that will have a voice and rep
%resentation in the important work of
the state and national farm bureau
declarations. At no other time have
the farmers been in greater need of
organization. At no other time have
they had such a good opportunity to
align themselves with an organization
that is powerful enough both locally
and nationally to bring them definite
results. The farm bureau has the APP
prevail and support Of the stae and fed
eral governments. Both the state and
nation provide funds for carrying out
it's work.
Everyone who is well informed
knows that the vast number of things
the farm bureau has accomplished for
the farmers in the short time 1t has
been in operation in this state. These
performances have been duplicated in
hundreds of other counties in the
United States. The benefits must be
reckoned in millions of dollars. The
farm bureau has grown tremendously
in the last yea and its accomplish
ments mex will be still greater.
Brookings county is the loser If ii does
not share in the work.
Start off with a bang and organize
the strongest farm bureau in the state
at the first call so that Brookings
county again will shine on the agri-
cultural map and be in a position To
function with the state and American
farm bureau federation. Get in line
and then get all your neighbors in
and you will be surprised at the bene-
Ats you will derive when eve,y
shoulder is at the wheel pushing in
the same direction. Cooperation and
organization will solve your business
and social problems. Here is your op-
%portunity, grab 1t.

unusual war demand for coal no longer
Dor displtes, production has steadily
increased. The Increase in production
this year over last year amounts 10
40. 900 900 tons. Notwithstanding this
astonishing increase in production and
%slackening demand, the people have
been begging for coal at any price.
They paid more for coal this year than
ever before. Mine operators have
blamed it on the spectators and high
wages. The spectators place the
blame on the law of supply and de
mard. and they all blame it on the
railroad car shortage. The retail coal
dealer has been held blameless for
everyone knows mat he has been
%powerless to remedy conditions. But
no n cares much who is to blame.
The people want coal at a reasonable
price, no matter who Is to blame. Sen
OF New Jersey put an end to this pass
ing the buck and gave the coal indus
try a ~flatfooted ultimatum that unless
the price of coal to the consumer is
materially reduced before December
8. they will recommend to the senate
that the government take over the coal
industry. And that threat is having
the same effect upon the coal profiteers
as the tightening of credit had upon
the sugar spectators. The ultimatum
legations or any other long winded
arguments. Direct results are the only
things that will satisfy the public.
Right here its the coal We want, coal
at any price.

Many parents may have become
which have been incident to football
this year and have been asking them
selves whether or not the sport is
worth the price OF injured limbs.
While nothing more serious than a
broken bone has resulted from foot
ball this season in ~nrookings. acct
dents In the game have caused the
death of one Madison youth and one
YanktOn boy. OF curse no sport can
be said to be worth a human life and
no sport can endure which exacts a
sacrifice OF that kind. But accidents
are incident to all games even of the
milder sort. Tragedies in football are
to be deplored but they are accidental
and nOt justly attributed to the game
itself. Automobile riding exacts a
toll one hundred times as great as
football yet joyriding continues undi-
minished and is not held to be either
rough or dangerous unless an acct
dent occurs. 1t must be admitted,
however, that boys might engage in
games not SO hazardous to their ply
steal frame. If those boys had been
leaning over a pool table cueing the
balls around into the pockets in the
bracing atmosphere of stale cigaret
smoke and encouraged by various com
ments from loungers on the side lines
instead of chasing the pigskin about
the football field in a game of Drawn.
brain and skill, cheered by the voices
of hundreds of men, women and chill
dren, those boys would not have been
killed nor would they have suffered
broken bones. Accidents may occur
in both games, in one cas the boy may
be carried home with a broken arm.
and in the other he may be carried
home with a broken morale and a
broken pocketbOok. The aim should
be to reduce the possibilities of acct
dents in football to a minimum. Foot
ball rules are revised each year with
this end in view. At the present time
all unnecessary roughness Is severely
penalized. Football is a clean manly
sport and should be encouraged and
improved.

MISERY

Chicago Tribune-Ten thousand i'm
migrants landed in New York last
week in a single day. Every day the
newspapers publish reports of the lay
ing off of American wOrkmen and Of
the acceptance of wage cuts t avoid
layoffs. AT HOughton, Mich, it is said
there will be a layoff of 1900. The
Pennsylvania railroad has dropped
1850 men at Altoona; the New York
Central 500 at West Albany, the second
in recent weeks. These items are
merely examples taken from one issue
Of the Tribune of what is happening.
In other words, while thousands Of
American workers are without work.
and more will be without 1t. thousands
of outsiders are coming in to strug-
gle for jobs that already are too few
for u own people. These immigrants
came from countries where conditions
are worse than they are in our coun-
try. But their coming is going to
make u conditions worse than they
need be. Doubtless they are trying
to escape from misery abroad; but they
are bringing misery to our own people.
We do not wish to ignore the dead
ings OF charity, but we believe in the
maxim that charity beg ms at home.
With the country facing a season Of
industrial depression and widespread
unemployment, we shall be foolish f
permit an influx of strangers. If
the government has any consideration
for America it will act promptly and
effectually to check it.

AVERAGE WHEAT PRICE "a CENTS

Philadelphia Record - Sixty-three
cents a bushel is the lowest average
and $1.O5 is the highest average price
of wheat during the past forty years.
There were twelve successive years,
1892 to 1903, inclusive, in which the
average tor the lowest prices is only
81 cents and the highest price average
is only 70 cents a tushel. making an
average price 70" wheat of 20 cents
a bushel for the twelve years. Taking
the average for the high and low for
forty years gives only an S4-cent aver
age price for wheat. With the bushel
cost of production being recently made
as high as $2.75, the question is how
have we lived, paid for and improved
homes. by raising wheat at such prices.

Of association with the bankers Of
his community or bankers generally.
We have heard such men, who cannot
see anything good in bankers and lay
about all the troubles Of the country
al their door.
That is the s.liiest sort Of rot and is
the outgrOWth Of downright ignorance.
though in part due TO a desire 10 have
some place to deposit personal ami
mo. tiles. ord narily the man who is
a constant knocker Of bankers has
failed, for perfectly adequate reasons,
% measure up TO the requirements OF
sound banking Institutions in the mat
ter Of extending credit.
We pass over much that might be
said for the bankers, especially those
Of South Dakota. 50 far as their bus
mess relations with their home folks
are concerned, no defense is neces-
sary.
Our particular line Of thought leads
Us to a discussion Of South Dakota
DduhtlD to pAbllA HBilIlth tpliilIhiiily
boosters. We can speak authoritative
ly on that score. We know by expe-
rience, by personal contact, by the
book.
We have found that almost without
exception where a community is max
ing progress, doing the things of 4
live town or city, working with zeal
and harmony for the things worth
while. the bankers are among the
leaders. very often the center and
head of organized effort. We have
found that the bankers do not only
their full share but frequently vastly
more. Not only do they give much
time bur contribute literally in money
This is very proper bat the propriety
of a thing does not always induce
others to do likewise.
We have found that the average
community depends much upon its
bankers, not only in the way of f.
yiduals and interests, but for civic
development. As a matter of fact,
a study Of our records shows that IS
is literally true that bankers have been
the backbone of community progress.
This assertion goes as well for the
small town or city as for the larger
communities. Perhaps it is natural.
At any rate it is a fact.
1t will be said that bankers ought
to lead in civic development because
they are making money. Certainly
they are. That is why they are an
asset to the community. The bank
which does not make money is headed
for insolvency and an insolvent bank
is not a very desirable institution any
where, much less an advantage than
a livery barn. Banks indicate the
prosperity of the home folks. Their
leadership in community development
is therefore pretty certain to be based
on sound judgment. 1t may be ex-
pected that when a banker boosts he
has a realization that what he does
for the community is going to result
in substantial benefit for himself and
his institution. In other words, wh2i
is good for everybody is good for the
banker. That is good sense.
We have no time for the fellow who
has no time for his home bankers or
bankers in general. When he knocks
his bankers he knocks his home com
munity.
