FLAX ONLY PAYING CROP

Flax was the only major crop in
South Dakota which, at market prices
quoted December l, showed a profit to
the farmers ove and above the cost
OF production, according to statistics
compiled by the state department of
agriculture and made public here to-
day.
The total of 257.S acres Of wheat on
Z farms showed the average cost of
production per bushel to be $1.21,
while the price on December /, was
81 a buShel, or a loss to the farmer of
p cents a bushel. On 20 farms a
total of $50 acres Of oats showed an
average cos per bushel Of IL cents,
while the December l quotation per
buShel was 80 cents, or a loss to the
farmer Of II cents a bushel. Barley,
on the records taken from 10 farms,
a total Of 1863 acres, showed an ay.
erage cost of production per bushel
Of II cents, with December 1 market
prices of 46 cents, or a loss Of 25
cents a bushel to the farmer. On 6
farms, 1876 acres of rye gave an aver
age cost Of so cents a bushel while the
December l price was 65 cents, or a
loss of Is cents a bushel. Flax on 6
farms, a total Of 1881 acres, showed
an average cost per bushel Of S2.01,
while the December / price was 1925
a bushel, or a gain Of 16 cents a bush
ell. Corn on 16 farms, a total of
l011.6 acres, showed a cost per bush
el Of 81 cents while the December 1
price was 40 cents, a loss to the far,
mer Of s cents a bushel. Potatoes on
is farms, with a total acreage of 1868,
cost an average Of AZ cents a bushel
while the December 1 price was 20
cents or a loss Of % cents a bushel to

the farmer. Tame hay showed a loss
of $3.S4 a ton, while wild hay showed
a loss Of 1851 a ton and alfalfa a loss
of 9S cents a ton.
The statistics compiled by the de.
partment of agriculture were based on
actual records made on farms in
kingsbury county during this year,
the department states. Comparing
the costs to the December l price"
the statement of the department said,
lit is seen that the farmer failed ever
to make the expenses and this, in view
Of the fact that the farmer held the
costs down to the lowest point in years
and soon hopes to name market prices
in this, the lowest of any other bust
ness. The reason for the farmers not
only failing to break even but not even
being able to meet expenses, is Il to
the low price they receive for the crop.
Potatoes sold at a cost price, and as a
consequence, the farmer lost heavily.
While these figures appear %discourag-
ing to farmers they have never struck
for higher wages nor have they failed
to produce, as shown by these actual
farm figures. They have a right to de
mand a fair rate for their investment
and business"

~~A&As
demand the name of South Dakota is
always mentioned as a source Of such
good Seed" says Ralph Z. Johnston,
extension agronomist at State College.
The recent heavy im%portations of
South American seed will soon be on
the market. This foreign seed is not
desirable for the northern states and
farmers in this section are warned to
buy only western grown seed as it,
'alone gives satisfactory results"
states a recent article from the New
York agricultural experiment station.
There is a lesson here for all growers
and planters Of alfalfa seed in South
Dakota, and Mr.. Johnston especially
cautions all buyers Of alfalfa seed for
1923 paintings to call for, insist on,
and buy only South Dakota seed. The
alfalfa growers Of the state are or
ganized to give splendid service
through their cooperative exchange at
Rapid City and the experiment ~associa-
ton at Bookings. Genuine Grimm
and Cossack can now be purchased
from registered fields.

the Hawaiian troupe of entertainers
which has made a strong hit with the
pleasure seeking people. All this, to-
gether with the band concerts by two
bands, merry -go-round, ferris wheel
the many pretty booths and conces-
sions make the Greater Hamilton Ex-
position one of the best places of en-
tertainment that one could possibly
find anywhere.
The Moose are deserving of great
credit for the 10 days of entertain
ment and amusement they afford the
people of Hamilton and their efforts
should be rewarded by the support of
every citizen
The big show closes on Saturday
night, and anyone not having already
attended should do so and not fail to
see the big display which opportunity
does not come to one every day. Until
one has seen the Moose big show the

CIGAR MAKERS
Of Cincinnati Make Success
of Cooperative Plan

As an example of what cooperation
will do all that is necessary is to point
to the cigar makers of Cincinnati and
what they have accomplished. Many
months ago the Cincinnati cigar man
ufacturers by their actions forced the
cigar makers to go on strike in effort
to maintain decent living conditions.
After being out for some weeks the
workers woke up to the fact that the
stand of the employers was really one
to smash the union The men decided
to launch into business for themselves
in order to give employment for those
on strike
The Cigar Makers Cooperative
Co. was formed, and its success has
been beyond all dreams. The Cigmaco
and CCC cigars are the brands turn
ed out by the company, and are not
only favorite brands in Cincinnati but
in the surrounding territory and
throughout the country they are be-
coming popular and meeting big
demand During the year 1921 two
and one-half billion of these cigars
were turned out That is going some.
The Cgmaco and CCC cigars are ex-
cellent quality cigars at popular
prices, and are deserving of the pa
tronage Of every union man.

PLUMBERS STRIKE
Up to Arbitration-Sess
Called for Saturday

There is chance that the differ
ences between the master and journey
men plumbers may be adjusted Sat
urday. 1t was proposed in order that
a settlement be arrived at that the
whole matter be placed in the hands
of a committee for arbitration. This
committee to be composed of six men
from outside the city; three master
plumbers and three journeymen
plumbers. This proposition was ac-
cepted by both sides and if it is pos
sible to have the representatives of
the two sides in the city by Saturday
afternoon Il meeting will at once be
called and the whole matter gone over
in an attempt to arrive at an adjust
ment
Most of the Journeymen plumbers
are working at other than their regu-
lar jobs A number Of them have
taken jobs at Middletown and Gin
cinnati Cincinnati firms are adver-
tising here for journeymen plumbers
and seem anxious to take the Hamil-
ton workers on. Only a few of the
strikers are unemployed and it is not
because they can't secure positions
but a few must remain on the JOB
looking after the affairs of the strike
1t is really to be hoped that the
representative of the master plumb.
ers at the conference to be held Sat
urday will see the business and fair
ness of the demands of the striking
plumbers and come to an adjustment
of the differences existing between the
two parties, not because there are
joumeymen plumbers in need Of EN-
plyoment, they are not as they car
get plenty to do, but because tht
building campaign that should now bt
progressing is practically at a stand
still
Hamilton is suffering in this tie-uE
and not because the workers are ask
ing anything unreasonable 1t ha.
been said that the building of houses
is being held up because the price o.
plumbing is too high and that the
builders are waiting for the journey
men plumbers to accept a cut befor,
ordering building to proceed Why
the difference that the cut which it i.
said the master plumbers are willing
to agree on would be so small in tn,
price of building a house as to be neg
ligible. Certainly not enough to keel
anyone from building home who ha
such idea in mind
