FARMERS OF AMERICA
By Floyd Ramp.

AT last the American Farmer has had concrete
example of how much his city partners think of
him. Big business has once more proven it's indy
ing friendship for those who produce the great
mass OF raw material which city workers convert
into the finished commodities These commodities
feed, clothe and satisfy the needs of work.
ers everywhere. Even farmers look to the city for
large part of the supply of things that add to
their comfort
We are positively sure of one thing and that is
that the price of corn wheat cotton and meat have
decreased in price. Something had to be done to
reduce prices and our hard working farmers were
given the honor of beaing this burden.
Furniture has not decreased in price and if
there is one thing the farmer needs more it is some
adequate furniture Machinery and farm impe-
ments are still being sold at about five times what
they should be sold at to in any way correspond
with the amount of labor that farmer puts into
bushel of wheat, corn or potatoes
More farmers are broke or an the verge of
bankruptcy today, than before the war or have been
any time since the old Populist days.
wonder how long it is going to take the Amer
lean farmer to learn who it is that is making the
money off the farm products.
/ wonder how long it will take farmers ard
city workers to understand each other thorough
" enough so that they can get together and shake
these capitalistic parasites off their backs? How
The toiler. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1919-1922, 1921-01-15

much longer are they going to remain Indifferent
to a ystem of society that allows hundreds of
thousands of parasites and dlers to live upon their
labor?
The Russian peasants have learned at last that
Socialism Communism -Bolhevsm are, after all
their friend and not their enemies; and cossacks
that once fought bravey for the old Czarist re-
gime are now staunch supporters of new social
order known as Communism.
According to report Of the Peoples Commisar
for Agriculture in Russia we find this statement
1T was soon seen that the economic interests of
the workers and peasants (farmers) were ident-
ical. Together they had control of the means of
production, distribution and exchange Until the
farmer gains control over his products and comes
to an understanding with the city workers who
must also gain control of their products, there can
be no real peace and stability in society.
Farmers, understand your problem and join your
forces with the city workers and no force on earth
can oppose you successfully.
Until you have done this, the lot of the slaves
will be your lot; and the city workers, brothers
of yours in the process of feeding and clothing the
people, will remain as the poverty stricken masses
Arise build your farmers, organizations and join
with your brothers in the city. Free yourselves
from this degrading slavery: Build system that
will put all men at useful work. shake the para
sites from your backs.

starved and beaten back to work at less pay. They
have no Union-altho the owners have
And it is this unending insecurity of the worker
in his job, his knowledge that the one who owns
the machine also owns him; this knowledge of
being another mans vassal and serf and slave;
THIS is the thing which will not down, which rises
up and up before all Labor and strikes deep into
the fibre and soul of Labor-and makes it bend
every effort to be free, and teaches it how, thru
organization of class-conscious bodies of workers
to strike the chains from it's limbs and to take
control of the factories and mills and mines and to
run them for the workers. For they only, carve

THINK TEACHERS SHOULD
FULFILL CONTRACTS

| What is Tie legal status of 4
teachers contract SO far as fulfill
ment by the eacher is a question
which is agitating school boards
at different places in Haakon and
Jackson counties.
They complain that after seeur-
ing teacher on a contract, they
cannot be certain that the CON
tract will be carried out. If bet
ter offer is secured the teacher
either just conveniently forgets to
appear or sends notice that it
will be impossible to come, and
the board is left in the position of
trying to find a new teacher after
he field has heen pretty well work
ed over.
The courts, have held that a
teacher can compel school board
to meet the provisions of con-
tract if the baord attempts to
back out, but just what the other
end of the contract carries in the
way Of enforcement has so far as
is generally known never been tes-
ted. and many boards would like
to know just where they do stand
in such cases.

The people Of this section are
greatly interested in oil develop
|ment. We are likewise much inter-
|ested as the Capitol-Journal cer-
tainly has been CONSISTENT in It'll
agitation along these lines for
many years. But along with this,
development should bc greater
interest in the development of the
agricultural resources Of our COM
munity. We are getting more far
mers each year, but with all Of
them we have no silos up to the
present time. This is one resource
that needs attention. We also
need more farmers and more farm
ing, and with each there should be
hogs and cows to insure contin-
upus prosperity. Hog and COW
raising means success. No matter
how poor the season, There is no
reason that the farmer who has
hogs and cows cannot make liv-

BEETS SHIPPED FROM
BELLE FOURCHE

Owing to the moderate weather
in September and the first of Oct
ober, the Great Western Sugar
Company and the beet growers in
the Belle Fourche valley have made
great progress in getting the beet
crop out Of the ground and to the
shipping stations for shipment to
the factory at Scott's Bluff, Neb.
Up until Tuesday night Of this
week, 300 cars had been shipped,
and there will be in the neighbor-
hood of 175 more to ship before
all the beets are on their way to
the factory. If the weather remain
good until the first Of November.
practically all the beets in the
valley will be cleaned up.
The sugar situation this season
is about the same condition as
other crops. Growers last year in
this district received flat price of
$40 so per ton, while this year the
price ranges from S4.00 to SIS. 00
per ton The two prices are due
to some Of the growers signing

NEWS FROM THE
LOCAL Oil FIELDS

There seems to be no abatement
of the interest in the oil develop
ment started in this region several
months ago. In fact interest and
activity grows with the passing
weeks, >and now there are rigs
drilling in most of the counties
of Western South Dakota especial
ly adjacent to the Black Hills.
/ The Mcdonald people have closed
a contract for the assignment of
a number oil leases in the country
northeast of Milesville, and will
ship their rig in from Newcastle,
Wyoming, soon. 1t is reported that
lit will be unloaded at Philip
within the next ten days or two
weeks, but we have not been able
to verify this. Certainly the out
fit expects to begin operations be-
fore December lst.
Two crews are now working the
drilling outfit north of Midland.
and the work is being carried on
twenty-four hours day, in orde.
to finish the holes as soon as pos
sible before winter sets in SO that
more definite information relative
to the underlying structures mayl
be learned. The third test hole is
now being drilled and with two
crews on the job should be finish
ed in short tmie. The second
hole. drilled showed that there is
generalslope in the right direction
in the underlying strata. The re
holes are expected to de-
termine whether the structure is
a closed one and if found SO, it il
probable that larger rig will be-
put in operation.
Work on the Standing Butte we'll
in Stanley county has been discon-
tinued for fifteen days at depth
of 1925 feet, in order to cement
off the artesian water flow. Ii
takes about two weeks for the ce-
ment to harden in this process,
and drilling was commenced again
on Tuesday Of this week.
Mr.. Olson, geologist of the Nor
beck Nicholson Company, in maEy,a
ing a. survey of the formations
between Plum Creek, where a SER
ies of test wells are being sunk,
and the. Standing Butte field, states
that the Standing Butte we'll is
ocated on top Of the structure, /,
and 300 feet higher than that OF ,
Plum Greek. Also that the Geyer |
we'll and the Standing Butte we'll {
ire on level, making the Stand k
ng Butte we'll about 120 feet high /
n on the structure than the Geyer

The Standing Butte well, Mr..
Olson says, is located in the most
favorable place in this section OF
he state, and the drillers are con- (
ident that oil will be struck be-
ore the 230O foot level is reach
