your committee and others would pre-
pare statements of facts showing ac-

The experiences OF some Of your
farmers during the past season, CIV
ing names. size OF farm. amount of
grains raised, expense Of production,
amount realized, ETC., would be very
valuable. 1t would also be we'll if
representatives from the state could
appear in person
II am pleased to note that you are
grateful to congress for the financial
aid given by the war finance corpora
ton. Personally I think it one of the
very best pieces of legislation passed
by the present congress-. In many
cases much of the money has not
reached the individual farmer, but
the millions of dollars furnished
banks in our state have permitted the
renewal Of farmers PAPER at reason
able rates of interest. have provided
many new loans to other farmers, and
have perhaps saved many of our
banks from closing their doors, which
would have been a calamity to their
communities. Permanent relief, how
eve is not given by simply furnishing
more credit, u can only be effected
by procuring a price for farm prod
ucts that will the cost of pro-
duction plus a reasonable profit.

SCORES POWERS
FOR. ATTITUDE
TOWARD CHINA
Miss Alderman Says Shan
tung Agreement Was
!, :. Not Fair - I.

Scoring the world powers for their
attitude toward China, especially in
re"ard to the settlement of the Shan
tung question, Miss Jessie Alderman,
Mr.4u- traveller and international lee
tran" told how the situation in China
at the present time appeared to n
who was thoroughly acquainted with
the life and people Of that country.
The noted lecturer appeared Monday
evening in her second visit to Grand
Forks before a fair sized audience.a at
tho Baptist church., coming here IN
der the auspices of~the. Business and,
Professional -Women's clubs 49,. 70;
Miss Alderman blamed the United
States along with the rest of the Allied
the Province of Shantung owe into
the hands of; Japan taking from
China a province Of their own country
men numbering 40, 900, 900 and q land
rich in mineral ore and in. proportion
to the rest Of China, well developed.
She showed how it stood a perpetual
1lenac to the country as the property
mobilize and outfit a great army there
that could invade China without oppO-
sitiOn. 20
Boycott Resulted
The speaker characterized the agree
ment as contrary to the settlement Of
al! other properties c~onfiscated from
Germany during the war. China. she
said, seized :nr property Of her enemy
the same as all German ships mad
These ships, @he held, had lot been
restored, but on the contrary had been
retained by this government.
At the tim" the province was given
over to Japan, Miss Alderman sail
that 100000; school and university
students in China had made a vow
that they would eve touch q thing
from Japan Until the province y. mad
oet>n restored. = g. $50.
The speaker deplor-d the fact that
so marry different religious creeds were
being taught by the missionaries LIN
China. She said thai 1t was confus-
ing to the Chinese. who were trying 10
| believe in one God. Shs also told C:
the schools and colleges that had been
built by missionary"societies but that
Ead been abandoned for the reason
that the Chi. ese will not permi. re-
zion to be taught in schools. They
know that it cannot be taught In our
own schools, Miss Alderman continued,
end they, tn. ,efore will! not permit US
to experiment on them. -t -
The lecturer. spoke briefly on .he
arn,alnent conference. which she had
attended, and touched on the revoiu-
ton ir Russia, saying that conditions
in that country were appalling, but
that we went through a bloody period
In our own revolution as all countries
must when overthrowing n govern
ment and establishing another. -
Miss Alderman is recognized az. one
of the best informed and most Travelled
women speakers Of the day. She hat
j circled the globe eight times and spent
a great deal OF time in China. which
ountry she understands thoroughly.

CHANGE IN PRESENTING
REFERRED LAWS AND
AMENDMENTS TO VOTERS

4
By amendments to the election
laws of the state by the last lcgis-
lature changes have been made
which require the stating of in
itiated and referred measures and
constitutional amendments on ell
ection ballots making vital diff
ference in presenting these to the
people for their vote. The change
is that the propositions shall be
stated in such a manner that
vote Yes. will be one favoring
the initiated or referred measure
or amendment, while vote NO"
is one not favoring it. Prior to
this time, under the election laws
it was possible to state PROPOSE
tions on the ballot in such man
ner that only the most careful and
studious voters knew exactly what
they were voting for.
It is the advice of those urg-
ing the passage of the measures
and amendments and equally the
statements Of those people oppos-
ing these that voters be sure to
remember this fact.

THE REAL GENUINE
BUSINESS MAN

No business man should allow
a newspaper published in his
town to go without his name and
business being mentioned some
where in its columns each and ev-
cry issue. This applies to all kinds
of husiness- general stores, dfA
goods, groceries,, furniture dealers,
manufacturing establishments, au-
tomobile dealers, mechanics, pro-
fessional men, and in fact all class
es of business men.
This does not mean that you
have whole or half or even a
quarter page ad in every issue,
Of the paper, but your name should
be mentioned if you do not use
more than a two-line space.
A stranger picking up news
paper should be able to tell just
what business is represented in "a
town by looking at the business
mentioned in the paper. This is
the best possible town advertiser.
The man who does not advertise
his business does an injustice to
and his town. He is the
man who expects the newspaper
to do the most free boosting for
his town. The man who insists on
sharing the business that comes
to town but refuses to advertise
his business is not valuable adj
dition to any town.
The life Of a town depends upon
the live-awake and liberal adver-
tising business man.

FALL FRESHENING
PRODUCES PROFITS

Cows that freshen in the fall
not only lead in production Of milk
and butterfat. but also produce
more income over cost of.feed than
cows freshening at any other time
of the year. according to Horace
M. Jones, extension dairy spec-
ialist at State College.
4 "A Thorough study Of 10, $40 cows
in 64 testing associations of the
United States, as reported in q
United States Department. OF Agri-
culture bulletin, reveals the fact
that the average fall freshcning
COW produced 6689 pounds Of milk
containing 269 pounds Of butter
fat; the winter freshening COW
6439 pounds Of milk and 258 pound
of butterfat; the spring freshen-
ing COW 594l pounds Of milk and
236 pounds Of. butterfat; and the
summer freshening COW 5.842 lbs
of milk and 236 pounds of butter
fat. respectively he says.
Furthermore, cows freshening in
the fall were found to return an
average Of $76.65 income over
cost Of feed. Those freshening in
the winter, spring, and summer re-
turned $3.50, $40. 90, and $66 -
respectively Thus the fall freshen-
ing COW leads not only in produc-
tion of milk and butterfat, but
also m the net returns.
This being true in the case Of
10,87O cows studied. should the
same general principle not be true
in every dairy herd in the country?

MORE OWNERS THAN
RENTERS IN THE STATE

There are l3.948 more farmers
In South Dakota who own the
land they farm than there are
renters according to tabulations
made by the state tax commission
from data furnished by the asses
sors and gathered by them on their
rounds.
According to this tabulation
there are 45,751 owner farmers in
the state and 3l,773 renter far
1mers. Tripp county leads the state
in the number of owner farmers
with 1856. Roberts county is se-
cond with l,243. Brown county is
third with 1910.
There are fifteen counties in the
state in which there are more rem
ter farmers than there are owner
farmers. These counties are Auro-
ra, Duel, Hamlin, Hanson, Kings
bury, Lake, Lincoln, McCook, Min
er, Minnehaha, Moody, Sphinx and
Union.
The number of owner and rent
er farmers in each of the coun-
ties in the state are as follows:

PAYING BONUS CLAIMS
NEARING THE CLOSE

Paying soldiers compensation
claims is a slow process now, ac-
cording to members of the Sol
diers' Compensation Board. This
slowness in paying is the large a.
mount Of investigation that is nee
essary in the case of practically
every one of the claims being paid
now, though there are few new
ones coming occasionally, belated
applications, which are complete
and require little or no investiga-
ton.
Of the 29,800 claims filed with
the board approximately 1850
have been paid. Whether the total
number Of claims filed will reach
the 10000 mark is matter Of con-
lecture only, but it, would appear
the estimate Of the legislature that
$4,000 claims would be fled is not
going to be far off.
The difficulty comes In the pay
ing of claims where there is mass
of evidence to secure in order to
protect the state and not pay the
Gains Of ex-service men who were
perhaps never residents of the
state. As an example of some of
the things the board has to con-
tend with the following is sam
pie:
A young man under age, who liv-
ed with his parents in Indiana, en-
listed in the navy before the war
broke out. When the war did come
the sailor was still under age, his
parents had moved from Indiana
to- South Dakota. Through the sail
or probably never saw South Da-
kota he contends that being under
age his residence automatically
changed with that Of his parents
and that as they lived in this state
when the war was declared he was
a resident of the state and is there

fore entitled to the bonus.
In fact that is an easy question
to answer in comparison to some
that have been fled, many of
which have not yet been decided
by opinions of court cases to test
the validity of the claims.
