CHEAP, MOTIVE POWER

Editor National Leader: We have
been interested readers of the Ma
tional Leader for two or three years.
j wish to say that we as farmers are
with you heart and soul. It certainly
looks good to see that at least some
of the farmers have their eyes open.
If the farmers movements, such as
the Nonpartisan league, farm bloc,
etc., fail, the farmer might as well be-.
gin digging his grave and the sooner
he gets into it the better he will be off.
One thing which has been very in.
teresting to me for some time back is
that the farmer should find some
cheaper form Of motive power than
gasoline. Why not denatured alcohol?
i understand that Henry Ford has
been making and using denatured al,
The National leader., 1922-04-17

could have plants for making this fuel
scattered all over the United States,
where we could take our straw, pota-
toes, etc., and exchange it for fuel. It
would not only give us a cheaper fuel,
but would also make a market for,
more farm produce. !.
I wonder, too, why there are not
larger and better windmills on the
market. I believe other countries
have them. There are many small
streams seemingly going to waste,

It would seem that the farmers had
just taken up with the thing easiest to
get and had not tried at all to free
themselves from the power monop-
olies. --; ef e..
I would like to see this subject dis
cussed in the Leader, as I believe it
would be of interest to great many.

health; about rs kinds of vegetables
can be grown in the home garden and
served fresh every day; few choice
flowers should find a place in every

in serving fruit and vegetables fresh
from the garden.
Mr.. Matthews states that about 20
vegetables can be planted now and
will be ready for use during the fall
and winter months. Seed NAV be sown
in the open at present for the follow
ing: turnips, cress, spinach, corn salad
kale, carrots, mustard, parsley, peas,
beets, lettuce onion sets radish and

eral grand jury has returned three
true bills against John w. Guy, ST.,
former cashier of the First National

charging him with violations of the
national banking laws. One bill of in
dictment charged John w. Guy and
e. 0. Heritage jointly with violation of
the national banking laws. Another

lying embezzlement alleges that Guy
embezzled $S4,s29.23 from the bank
between November 1, 1919 and July

in which true bills were found against
Guy allege transactions with Heritage
and lain in violation of the nation
