FARM BUREAU BACKS
THE GRAIN GROWERS

Answering numerous letters of in
ouiry sent the State Farm Bureau
headquarters, Secretary H. B. Fuller
makes the following statement:
"The North Dakota Farm Bureau
Federation is squarely behind the u.
S. Grain Growers. Early in the year
it went on record as approving great
national plan for the cooperative mar
keting Of grain such as was then be.
ing worked out by the Committee OF
Seventeen. After the approval OF
the Committee of Seventeen's plan and
tn Inauguration Of the U. S: Grain
Growers early in April in Chicago,
the Farm Bureau gave it's moral sup
port and active work in various ways
in supporting the U. S. Grain Growers
It wishes to cooperate with the
Equity and every other farmers or
ganization whose aims are to better
the marketing conditions for farm
products. The plan Of the Committee
of Seventeen was to incorporate IN
great grain marketing organization
existing cooperative grain marketing
associations. 1t has been our sincere
hope that the equity might be included
as part Of the organization but II
such a plan cannot be worked out, it
is my opinion that the Farm Bureau
will stand back Of the greater nation
al organization as represented by the
u. S. Grain Growers.

VALLEY CITY
GIVEN PUBLICITY

T. C. Hutchinson, Williston, N. D.,
publicity manager of the North Star
Trail Association is in the city today
gathering data and pictures for an 80
page trail book the association is is
suing for the benefit of the tourists.
"Valley City will have representa-
ton of about six or eight pages in the
book" said Mr.. Hutchinson, "as this
city is one of the finest and one Of the
best for tourists accommodations on
the entire trail" The books when
completed will be distributed to all
garages, hotels and information stands
along the trail and will be given to the
tourists free of charge.
I. J. Moe of this city is one of the
directors of the association and T.
Melvin Lee is local chairman. While
in the city Mr.. Hutchinson will be as
sisted in his work by these gentlemen.
With the issuing Of this trail book
and other advertising that the associa-
tion expects to get out this winter it
is thought that it will influence thous-
ands of tourists to pass over the
North Star trail during the coming
season as this is the shortest and most
direct route leading across North Da-
kota to the Canadian Rockies.

GREATER ECCPR0-
DUCTI0N COMING

Indication that points to greater egg
production than in former winters
from fewer hens in North Dakota are
said by dopesters to demonstrate the
success of the states pountry culling
campaign which closes for the year
within the next few weeks. Four to
six demonstrations are being held in
seventeen counties of the state by O..
A. Barton, poultry specialist, Agri-
cultural College, who is cooperating
with county agents in conducting the
meetings.
Results from focks used at the
farmer meetings are being checked up
by county agents, according to Mr.
Barton, who has just returned from
culling trips to Pembina and Cavalier
Counties. There is the flock of liver
Orvedahl, whost flock of 80 hens was
one of six used in Pierce county DEM
onstrations recently. Ten days after
the meeting the 80 hens culled out of
the flock as producers laid four
eggs. while the remaining 60 hens laid
$50 eggs. Sixty-four farms were rep
resented in the county's series Of DEM
onstrations.
"There is now a widespread appre-
citation Of the simple and reliable
method by which non-producers can be
culled out of the f1ock," states Mr..
Barton. November 1, is however:
about as late as culling operations
can be satisfactorily handed, because
mny good hens are then beginning to
mott. Good flocks will show up prom
inently in these late culling operations
however. When culling is completed
in the fall, housing conditions demand
next attention. Cleanliness, light
dryness, fresh air, and no draughts are
the items which make for good hous-
ing arrangements.
Culling demonstrations will be con-
tinued until November Is, says Mr..
Barton, counties that are yet to be Wis
tied are: Mclean, Grant, Hettinger
Emmons, Stutsman, Ramsey and Rich

OVER HALF MILLION
BUSHELS PLEDGED

According to officials in charge of
the organization work of the Equity
Grain Growers 1921 pool, over half a
million bushels of grain have been
pledged and shipment of wheat, dur
um and rye, the grains that are being
pooled is on in earnest.
The grain pledges are coming from
nearly every county in North Dakota:
northwestern Montana, western Min
nesota and northeastern South Dako-
ia. The individual pledges range
from hundred to six thousand BUSH
els. In the case where the pledges are
under thousand bushels severtl
farmers unite to secure carloads.
Ryder, Makoti, Plaza and Parshall
in Ward and Mountrail counties are
heavy Shippers to the pool and have
over sixty cars moved. Reserve, Mon
tana has started pledging and three
ers Cooperative Elevators at Halstad
and Hendrum, Minnesota have each
pledged 10000 bushels and farmers in
these amounts.
Storage facilities have been arrang-
ed for that will take care of fifteen
million bushels. Rye and durum go to
Superior, Wis, and wheat to Mime
apols where the actual grain is plac-
ed in storage and will be sold as the
market demands and not thrown on
the market which has been overcrowd-
ed this fall.
Farmers can secure advances Of 60
per cent of the local market value of
their grain and market it through this
orderly channel, without being forced
to sell it on this low, overloaded mar
ket.
At Litchville, N. D., over forty
farmers have signed to pool their
grain and at Kensal over thirty. The
pooling privilege is open to every
farmer in the northwest. Contracts
and detailed information can be Sc
cured from B. H. Critchfield, Field
Manager, Equity Grain Growers Pool

NO BEER IN
NORTH DAKOTA

The issuing by the treasury depart
ment of the new regulations govern
ing the use of beer and wine for med
ical purposes no doubt will hasten
action on the supplemental prohibi-
tion bill now in the senate, in the
opinion Of Mrs. Elizabeth Preston
Anderson, president of the Women's
Christian Temperance union of North
Dakota.
fortunately" said Mrs. Anderson,
"only nine states are affected by the
Palmer ruling and the regulations just
issued. Thirty-nine states, including
North Dakota, pioneer state in pro-
hibition, are protected by law pro-
hibiting the manufacture and sale of
beer.
"The 18th amendment gives con-
current power in the matter of en-
forcement of the federal and the state
laws, therefore. all regulations must
be interrupted in conjunction with
the state laws"
Mrs. Anderson said that the law Of
North Dakota does not permit the
manufacture or sale Of wine or beer
and has been interpreted to the ef-
feet that there can be no Intoxicating
ljauor sold for any purpose except al
cohol. She said only druggists, doc
tors, dentists and veterinarians can
obtain permits to use alcomol in the
practice Of their profession, and in
addition to securing permit from
Washington they must also secure a
permit from the state prohibition di-
rector for every separate lot, and are
limited to the use Of six quarts of
alcohol per annum.
"Just before going out Of office for
mer Attorney General Palmer made
ruling that under the federal law ply
sicans had the right to prescribe beer
and wine for their patients" said Mrs.
Anderson. "This ruling would per-
nit the manufacture and the sale of
wine and beer and thwart the intent
of the 18th amendment.
"To meet this emergency, the sup
elemental prohibition bill was passed
by the house of representatives on
June 81 by vote of 252 to 90. This
bill is still pending in the senate
where there is said to be majority in
favor of it..

Those which I have had from the

been simply delicious. The famous

even better than usual; they are, in

a basket. Or, like all of Hallowell's
fruit, they can be sent to any place
within 1000 miles, as they guarantee
perfect delivery that far. If, how

the Honeydew Melons are perfectly
