Farmers and Prices.

prices for farm products are slow
ly climbing. Hope for economic
rehabilitation of this country rests
primarily on this fact. The entire ma
Ition now knows only too we'll what
I'VE Of the west have long realized!
|that farmers must prosper else indus
try stagnates.
While wool and livestock and wheat
and hay are slowly getting away from
b rut of worthlessness, price levels for
products not distinctly agricultural
re slowly and steadily sliding down.
An equilibrium must be established.
Farmers must be able to reap enough
from their crops to buy finished pro-
Hucts. Under prices of the past two
years, they have not been able to buy.
Probably this is the basic reason for
buyers strike" Not voluntary re-
fusal to pay exorbitant prices, but ne
cessity, was the underlying cause for
business stagnation.
Farmers are good customers. When
|they make money, they spend it. Re-
turn of better prices for agricultural
products is the one really important
promise of recovery from business de-
preston.
There is, for instance, no possible
reasonable explanation for a condition
which compels farmer to sell a wa
gon load Of hides to buy one pair or
shoes. There is no reason why one
whole acre of corn will not buy a ton
/ OF coal. These instances might be in
definitely continued. Things have been
out of adjustment. Farmers are only
learning the lesson of controlling the
price of their products. Other indus
Itries, better organized, have been slow
Ter to get down to a postwar price
basis. But they are getting there be-
cause the public is insistant that they
shall and because one third of the
american buying public is the Am
erican farmer who cannot pay high
prices. Only when the true relation
hip is re-established, will prosperity
eturn. 1t is on the way right now.

STORM WATER in
SANITARY SEWERS
Numerous Connections Found
Which Are Cause Of Much
"Backins-ap' Trouble

The city council has investigated
the sewer troubles in First ward the
serious conditi,ns prevailing at La
fayette school bringing this on. It was
found that some fourteen odd surface
wafer. catch basins are connected with
the sanitary sewers, which in flood
times of melting SHOWS or heavy rains
simply fill the sewer system beyond
its capacity and force water and sew
age back into Easements. The large
number of new sanitary sewer taps
put in during the last few years have
aggravated the situation.
A system of storm water sewers
which will adequately drain the sur
face water in the ward appears to be
the only solution Of the trouble. Such
system would relieve the sanitary
sewers to an extent that will leave
capacity sufficient for some years to
come, and might make possible an ex-
tension into the Olof and Park avenue
were installed.
The preliminary work for the paving
district has also disclosed that cases
of roof water connections to sanitary
sewers are to be found which have
helped to make the trouble experience
ed in the down town district. It is i'm
portant that every such connection
be charged into the storm sewer sys-
tenn before the paving is laid.

DE CRAFT WILL BE
OPPONENT SUNDAY
Second Game Of Season to be
Played at Local Park Against
Fast De Graft Nine

The second number on the diamond
dust program Of 1922 will be a duet
between the Willmar and DeGraff base
ball teams Sunday at the local ball
park. De Graft comes here with ra
ther attractive record gained thus far
dock, and lost by close margin to
Danvers. She played Hancock Sun
day. Christy Christensen, star hurler
for DeGraff, is doing splendid work
we learn from the sport departme ent
of the DeGraff Tribune. The circle Of
teams playing for titles in Swift and
Stevens counties are turning out some
fine contests and Willmar will have
an opportunity to clear that neck Of
the woods Of rivals.
The game played Sunday between
Wil,mar and Olivia showed the possi-
bilites in the home team. .Wi!lmar can
boast Of a good set Of sluggers and
men of good fielding ability. Jurgons
at second displayed a good class of
ball Sunday as Gid Kielty at first and
Hannah at third. Hahn, playing his
first game was initiated, suffered
somewhat during the trying ceremony
but had the satisfaction of throwing
the last man out in the first of the 9th.
His batting was promising.
The outfeld trio, Thunstedt, Hoi-
doh, and Berry successfully defend
ed their territory last Sunday
DeGraff defeated Hancock Sunday
at DeGraff when Christensen struck
lowed but two hits, when his team won
by to 0 score.
