MID WESTERN FARMERS TO
 . PLANT FULL YEARS CROPS BUT WILL CUT EXPENSES

into nothing more than what it has always been-merely a false alarm.
 "The low prices which were paid the farmer for his crops since the fall of 1919, together with the exor- bitant freight rates he has been forced to pay the railroads for trans porting said crops, have discouraged the farmer. He is fast approaching the desperate stage. Congressman would do well to bend an ear to the ground and heed the 'rumbling.' The farmer will certainly have to be reackoned with in the future" Swim ney declared.
 CONDITIONS FAR FROM NORMAL The crop prospectus which was forwarded to the clients of we'll known brokerage house in Kansas City this year indicates conditions among the farmers to date are far from being normal and "are not re- assuring to say the least" Almost every farmer, according to the pro- spectus, is planning year of re- trenchment in expenditures, and a period of unprecedented economy in agriculture was forecast
 "The farmer will be reluctant to SOW his crops this spring, albeit con- petition will gradually force him to prepare for his harvest this fall,' said Ava J. Strandberg. president of Strandeberg, McGreevy & Co.,. brok- CTS.
 Breathing a sigh, perhaps of re- gret, he will plant everything just as he has done in previous years, and silently praying, will tackle his job.
 "One of the most difficult tasks which the farmer faces this year will be to entreat his banker to fi- nance him, until he is able to mar ket his 1922 crop. The low prices which the markets quoted for food stuffs during 1921 ruined numerous tillers of the soil With their credit destroyed, they have reached the last straw.
 However, if the bankers of the country do not act too impulsive}y when passing judgement as to the farmers safety as credit risk many of the farmers will pull out of the rut," concluded Strandberg.

KANSAS CITY, Feb. Hike the grounding of tradition, the farmers of the Middle West were due to come out of their quarters of winter rest and headache-figuring on how much they lost on last seasons crops, take 8 look about today and see of there fs prosperity on the horizon. The average farmer in this section is booking to see if the shadow of low prices and poor markets is still cling ing to him.
 If he sees this same disastrous shadow, which dogged his steps last harvest time, will he, like the ground hog, entrench himself in his house for period of inactivity? Or will he SOW and plant as usual?
 1t is the question being asked ali through the broad farming belt of the Middle West, the great wheat, corn and hay area.
 Reports from leading bankers and produce men sent to this city state that the farmers will not grow less crops this year.
 Farmers face discouraging situa- tion, reports showed, but they plan to meet it with a pronounced retrac- tion of expenditures. They will seek to grow more but at less cost, working on budget systems and mak- tug business efficiency count They will plant and SOW as in former years and will hope for a stabilizing of market conditions, and lower freight rates before next harvest time
 OPERATING COST TO BE CUT
 F. F. Swinney, president of the First National Bank of this city, himself an agriculturist, was our au- .rhority for this crop prediction, after making careful survey of the con- ditions in the Middle West
 Notwithstanding the fact that the farmers profits were decidedly small last year." Swinney states. "I find nothing to substantiate rumors that there will be restriction in the sow Ing of wheat. corn, oats and alfalfa in 1922.
 However, there will be a pro- nounced reduction in farm expendi- rures.
 'The customary rumor, widely cir oulated every winter since the war, to the effect that the farmer will sow only small precentage of his ueua1 acreage will develop this year

MONKEY JACKETS AND SKIRTS WITH BUTTONS
 DECRED BY FASHION

NEW YORK, Feb. 8.-Little joko, who helps the organ grinder earn his daily show, is also assisting the fash ion dictators this season.
 The newest fashions will show Jok- o's influence.
 Of course, women must have some- thing new to wear. What shall it be? What shall it be? asked the fashion dictators in a more or less frantic manner. Then one of them thought of Joko, the organ grinder 8 little aide. And To! the monkey jacket.
 It is the very latest thing-the monkey jacket.
 It looks exactly like the tiny jack ct the organ grinders monkey wears.
 The coat suit is coming back, those who say what's what in fashion have decreed, and the woman who wants to look smartly gowned must have one with monkey jacket.
 Paris is already wearing the coat suits, monkey jackets and all Bisque and grey, it is announced, will be the most fashionable colors. And now prepare for the worst! The latest communiques from the fashion front announce that the new skirts are four yards around the bottom

American magazines expressed her
delight with the photoplay version
of her story that was directed BY

and SO realistic are the scenes that
when Mrs. Rinehart saw them she
exclaimed:
"Why it is mbelievably perfect
And isn't Helene Chadwick delight

It would be unfair to disclose the
charming plot of Mrs. Rinehart's
story. That is surprise which pat

I'm THE NAME OF THE Law
AT REX THEATER TODAY

"In the Name Of the Law" which
opens at the Rex theater r today
for three-day showing, has been &C.
claimed by thousands as one of the
outstanding: films of the last two
seasons. Not only has it we'll served
it's purpose of, entertaining, millions
of. movie fans throughout the country
but thousands of police officers and
officials who have seen it have pro-
claimed it a picture that should be
seen by everyone. ,,~.
For years the bluecoat has been
the butt of all the cheap wit of the
motion picture industry, especially
companies producing the comedy
films. ''In the Name Of the Law"
changes all that. It is clean pic
ture,- a picture Of real people, doing
real things in real way. .,
The picture is not spectacular but
it. is a story rich in all the things
that make life worth while and there
are myriad smifes,, tears and heart
throbs for all who see it. 81 p ~

Mrs. Louisa Oliver, ,719 Bemidji
Ave-, Bemidji, says: Gust recently
I. had an attack Of kidney trouble
that had me feeling rather out of
sorts. My kidneys weren't in proper
condition and were a continual
source of annoyance, due to their
weakness and irregularity. Often
during these spells I got quite dizzy
and black specks seemed to float be-
fore my eyes. My back, too, gave
me trouble; there was a steady, dull
ache through it. A heavy, bearing
down feeling settled in my kidneys
and had me tired out long before the
day was over. These symptoms made
me nervous and irritable. On the adj
vice of friend, I took Doan's Kid
ney Pills, purchasing some at the
City Drug Store. Doan's helped me
so much that began second box.
BY using Doan's according to direc-
