Rep. G. Young
Says Farming
Industry Now
is Threatened
LACK OF PURCHASING POWER
IN AGRICULTURAL SECTIONS
CAUSE OF STRINGENCY
HE SAYS.

LANCING, Mich, March 29-
Good times will not return until the
purchasing power Of the farmer has
been restored, Representative Geo.
M. Young of North Dakota, named
by the house ways and means COM
mittee to introduce the emergency
tariff bill at the extra session of con-
gress, declared in an address tonight
before the Zach Chandler republi-
can club here.
I've must not overlook the fact
that one-third of our population are
farmers" Mr.. Young said. .They
are normally big consumers. The
purchasing power of farmers will
not be restored until three million
men now out of employment are
probably employed, and until we
prevent the dumping of farm pro-
ducts from every part of the<globe."
Same Old Quack "Remedy''
Discussing permanent tariff
measure, Mr.. Young said the most
difficult problem was to fix rates OF
duty sufficiently high to afford pro-
lection against products of countries
whose exchange and labor wages
were extremely low. Imposition of
duties upon the basis of American
valuations, he declared would help
neutralize this trade problem. AS
sorting that the emergency tariff
measure would be precisely as
vetoed. Mr.. Young said:
'tIn sharp contrast with secretar-
les Houston and Meridith, who could
not get the farmers viewpoint and
who advised President Wilson to
veto it, are Secretaries Wallace and
Hoover, who have taken a pro-
nounced stand in favor of saving the

".They say we're queer" said rat

people are surprised because some Of
us are somewhat pinkish in color and
that such color is queer for us to
have and for all the alligators to
have.
"But they're ignorant when they say
that, for they do not know that we
come from the South, in u part of the
country where the banks Of the river
and the shores Of the lakes and
streams are of red clay. And we ha We,
as families. taken some Of the color

II don't mean, OF course. that the
color has run off on us. But in the

of snakes as 1t might be.
"These little creatures I was speak

red bugs In the swamps, too, that are

They are allowed to make nests on
the floor Of the house or large boxes
or barrels, or shelters are provided
for that purpose.
The eggs should be collected daily
and kept in cool place where the
contents will not evaporate too free
ly: If kept for some time they may
be stored in loose bran. The first
eggs are usually set under chicken
hens, while the last ones which the
goose lays may be Matched under

sire to sit can usually be broken up
by confining her to Stat bottom

very little feed for from two to
four days.
From four to six goose eggs may
be set under chicken hen and 10

set under hen should be turned
by hand the same as eggs set in an
incubator, as they are too large for
the hen to turn them readily. Hens

With the exception of the policy
above referred to. the purpose OF
which was, IL possible. to prevent
the closing OF hundreds OF banks in
the state, the bank has in no way de-
parted from recognized banking
principles. Meanwhile, all sorts OF
ridiculous and false stories, similar
to your editorial, are being circu-
lated within and without the state.
A Kansas daily paper says that on
a certain date, check drawn upon
the Bank OF North Dakota by Cit
izen OF Kansas having deposits
therein. was returned with the nota-
tion that the bank had refused pay
ment. This check was in the bank
on that date with endorsements
showing that there had been no de-
lay in its transmission to the bank,
and that it had been returned un-
paid. Numerous complaints have
been made that checks have been
returned, where upon investigations
it has turned out that banks re-
turning them had done SO without
;even taking the trouble of presenta-
ton to the Bank of North Dakota.
How can it be expected that the state
of North Dakota can sell its bonds
while this campaign of falsehood
continues?
Bonds Declared Valid
So far as the state administra-
ton has been able to ascertain, no
objection to the validity Of these
bonds, or the security behind them
has come from bond buying inter-
ests. Who, then, does object? Az

Meanwhile, M Editor, you are ali
ing these interests by rehashing and
publishing the f;.lsehoods they are
deliberately sending out from their
headquarters in the Twir Cities.
You are aiding them to create the
"bedlam" which you assume exists
in the affairs of North Dakota. And
let me say tina. there would have
been a real bediam in North Dakota
which possibly would have spread
far beyond its boundries, except for
the efforts of the Bank of North Da-
kota to prevent the disastrous eff
fects of the carrying out OF the law
sponcered by banking interests and
politicians, and evidently adopted
by the people under disapprehen-
sian rs to its intent and probable
effect, due to the gross misrepre-
sensations of these interests.
There are just two things chi.flv
wrong with North Dakota. First
that these interests, for purposes of
their own, are doing .heir utmost to
block he sale of North Dakota
bonds. And, second, that influential
journals such as the Times are. wit

by helping to circulate their false
propaganda. 1t is now up to you

MANY THOUSAND
NAMES ARE NOW
IN GUEST BOOK

With $3.50 names inscribed on
it's pages, the old register for visit
urs at the Chamber of Commerce
will soon be replaced by a new
book. its pages are about full Tho
present register was opened on
New Years day, 1906. Brigadier
General Y. c. I.ebo was the first
guest at the then Commercial club
rooms, at least his is the first name
on the register. r. II, Arthur, OF
Leaf, North Dakota, is the last
signer to date. Two pages are still
left untitled in the book. These
will accommodate eighty sigma
lures.
Some Of tho most famous men
and women in the United States
have visited the local chamber
since 1906 and taken enough inter-
est in Albuquerque and the organi-
cation to sign the register. Thou
sands have not signed who probably
expected to but forgot. Every
state in the union has contributed
visitors to the Chamber of Com
merce. Practically every large
city has had one or more of it's
residents in the building and many
of them have become Albuquerque
citizens since signing the old book.
Many foreigners have also paid the
chamber a visit and left their
names in the book which will, in
years to come, be one of the most
interesting volumes Of the city's
history.

Not at all deferred by talk of
business depression or gloomy fore

ed the attitude of a number of
manufacturers during the last six
months, the management of Dodge
Brothers factory at Detroit is
pushing forward the construction
of the huge eight-story. $70OO,OOO
press steel building. an addition to
the present great plant. which is
designed to make possible an in
crease in the maximum output of
probably more than 200 cars a day
THE production thus far
achieved by Dodge Brothers was
an average of about 600 cars day,
which can be raised to 500 cars or
more by means of the extension
now in progress" reads a message
received by J. Korber & Co, Albu-
querque dealers in Dodge Brothers
cars. The present building pro-
gram is the largest in Dodge Broth
ers history and will increase their
total floor space to more than 100
acres, Six years ago when Dodge
Brothers began operation their
total floor space was eight acres.
Another important unit in the
development of the big plant at
Detroit is the new power plant
now being built at cost of nearly

10 BACK the buy now" campaign
to the limit.
1--WE feel that the serious and
critical business situation now con-
fronting business could be much
improved by a united effort on the
part of Kiwanis clubs" President
Barnett stated in his letter to the
local club. The situation, which
is ruinous to all, can be greatly re-
lieVed through the boosting of the
buy now campaign.
Realizing the result which would
be obtained in the business world
during the present crisis, which is
lust turning for the better, by peo-
pie purchasing the articles which
they really need instead of waiting
for a few weeks or months to pur-
chase them. more than 80 per cent
of the KiWanis clubs in the United
States are backing the campaign.
If the present articles are pur-
chased new articles can be manu-
featured and there will be de-
mand for this manufactures. Raw
materials of the west will be used
in manufacture.
IF every one will purchase what
he or she needs right now. it will
start an endless cham of business,
Sidney Well stated yesterday In
commenting on the business drive.
Merchants will sell their present
stock of goods and order more
Manufacturers will answer the de-
mand for new articles and will
start manufacturing them on
larger scale. This will provide en-
ployment for those now working on
short hours or not working at all.
Producers of raw materials will
soon feel the demand from the
manufacturers and they will have
chance to increase their activity,
