WHY FARMERS CAKE is DOUGH
(William Allen White in the Emporia
Gazette).

(William Allen White in the Emporia
Gazette.
Every other calling, craft, or pro-
fession has a closed shop except the
farmer. The doctor calls his closed
shop medical ethics" and raises and
maintains prices. The lawyer has
his bar association, the merchant his
retailers club, and every skilled lab
orer on earth has his union. But the
farmer must have three or four or
five unions, each pulling and hauling
at the other, each jealous of the other
and all the unions taking general
catermauling which pulls the farmer
down. He is the only American who
does not make his own prices. The
farmers unions spend more time
quarreling than they spend helping
the farmer. Yet he won't give one
of them up.
The farmer, of all people on the
planet, is not willing to surrender a
little of his liberty for great econ
omic advantage. He must have half
dozen unions. He must have half
none. He is the only civilized crea-
ture who holds his independence high
er than he holds his economic status
The world is organized against him
and he is facing grave class crisis,
and all he can do is to lift up his
voice, stick out his feet and kick.
Much good that will do him. Until
the farmer has learned the organiza-
ton game that fixes prices and gives
up its independence for the right to
prosper the game that all the world
has learned in the last 200 years, the
farmers cake is dough.

Blue Valley Bulletin No. 8
A Glass
of Milk

j will find that he is actually throwing
away several glasses of milk from
every one of his cows every day he
fails to sell Special Sweet Cream to
Blue Valley. Nobody pays him for
that waste.
1t is easy to sell Special Sweet
Cream. The business farmer will
readily know how to meet the follow
ing requirements:
SPECIAL SWEET CREAM =
Cream that arrives at the Creamery
perfectly sweet to the taste, free from
all off-flavors, testing not less than 80
per cent butterfat and which is not
over 4S hours old when it leaves the
farm.
Farmers Business Like Ours
Blue Valley does business just like
the business farmer.
We, too, never throw away glass
of milk. We, too, watch the little
things. We plan, and invest, and do
lot of figuring and a lot of extra
work to get an additional one-half
cent for Blue Valley butter or to save
an additional half cent on making it
and getting it to the retailers in the
big cities.
In that way we have built up and
paid for our butter manufacture and
marketing organization which now is
at the service of the business farmer
in position to sell Special Sweet
Cream. In that way we can pay
high price for that and other grades
OF cream and can continue to do so.
The Blue Valley Farm Service Man
will be glad to help any business
farmer produce Special Sweet Cream.
Just phone US. He has lots of exper-
fence in business farming himself, and
his visit may prove useful in other
ways. Blue Valley figures that it is
good business to pay for butterfat
all that the sales price of the Blue
Valley butter brand will permit at all
times, so that the business farmer will
continue to milk cows. We also fig
ure that it pays us to maintain the
Blue Valley Farm Service to help our
/, customers who want to see their cows
give extra glasses of milk now and
in future years.

Harvesting Second Glover Crops.

Harvesting Second Glover Crops.
Brentwood, Wis.-Farmers through
out this section of the state have
begun harvesting their second clover
crop. The crop is in excellent condi
ton and in many instances it is
greater than the first. Other crops
are reported to be in good condition
by farmers, despite the frost which
visited parts of this region. Some
corn was touched and as result
the cutting of ensilage has started

No business farmer ever throws
away glass of milk every time he
milks COW.
Just the contrary-he feeds his
cows and cares for them and milks
them in way that will give him an
extra glass of milk from each one of
them.
He watches them for that extra
glass of milk. culls out the cows that
won't give it and gets cows that will :.
He invests in pure-bred dairy sire
so that in future years he will have
cows that will give many extra glasses
of milk. He spends money on COW
testing associations for the same
purpose. A long process of watching
little things, one glass of milk after
another, and involving some risks,
but all aiming at more money irons
the cows.
1t is good business farming to work
all the time for that extra glass Of
milk, one after another, more a d
more of them, and never throw sin
gle glass of milk away.
The Little Things
The business farmer watches these
little things. That's what makes Inn
successful.
A glass of milk, at soc pound for
butterfat, is worth about one-hal1
cent. To the business farmer it is
not worth "only" one-half cent. II
that is the way he looks at it, he might
throw it away. But one-half cent
and another, and another and SO on,
is just what he is watching and
planning and laboring for. He fig
lres. He knows that one extra glass
Of milk after another, twice day
every day from each COW, runs into
money. That is his business.
Extra Cents for Sweet Cream

Blue Valley Sweet Cream Cremery is

SELF-SEEKERS SHOULD STEP
ASIDE

The Republican press OF MlnneSo-
ia are beginning to discuss the pros
poets for success at the polls at the
1924 election, particularly as re-
CARDS the office of United States
Senator, governor and other state of
ficials.
Minnesota is normally Republican
state, but it has been apparent to a
casual observer for the past two
years or more that those in charge of
the Republican nominations of the
state were riding to fall.
The defeat of Frank Kellogg for
United States Senator in 1922 should
have served notice on the political
powers that the common people of
the state were not at all satisfied with
the manner in which they were hand
ling state politics.
Following the death of Senator
Knute Nelson a few months ago it
did not take a political seer to dis
cover that it would be absolutely i'm
possible to elect Jake Preus to sue
coed him. On every street corner,
in every city and hamlet of the state,
there was decidedly more opposition
to the governor than there ever was
against Mr.. Kellogg.
The Herald is not claiming at this
time that any of the candidates could
have defeated Magnus Johnson, but
we make the statement without fear
of successful contradiction that if
either Oscar Hallam or Sidney And
erson had been nominated at the pri-
maries on June 18th they would have
went to the polls with a united party
back of them, and Johnson's majority
over either of these two gentlemen
would have been a few thousand at
most, instead of nearly 100000 he re-
ceived over Governor Preus.
Political writers from the Twin
Cities state that the governor
has not yet made up his mind
as to whether he will be a candidate
for state office next year or not.
The Herald recognizes Mr.. tPreus' ex-
traordinary political ambition, but we
give him credit for having too much
horse sense to believe that he can be
elected to any office. In the interest
of the party it is time that he and his
friends should recognize the fact that
he is absolutely through politically.
The Herald editor takes off his hat
to no man in Minnesota as a Republi-
can. This paper is a Republican
newspaper in season and out of sea-
son, and for this we have no apologies
to make. The fact can just as we'll be
recognized, however, that the Repub-
lican party in Minnesota is in nigh
ty bad way. We haven't any partic-
ular panacea to restore the party to
the confidence of the people of the
state. To US, however, it seems that
the time has arrived when the self
seeking politician should step aside and
that instead of the nominations being
controlled by a few who sit around
mahogany topped desks, that the COM
mon people of the great state of Min
nesota should have something to say
about who their candidate for po-
Etical office should be.
1t is time that all the political
cards be laid face up on the table,
that the knives be taken out of coat
sleeves, hatchets thrown away and
hammers buried.

Cecil B. DeMille, accompanied by
his production staff and several mem
berS of the cast, went to Santa Bar
bara for an exciting days work on
location in connection with the film
ing of "Manslaughter," which will be
presented at the Caughren Theatre
Sunday and Monday.
The incident filmed-one of the
most important in the story-was the
accident in which a motorcycle Of
ficer meets his death because of the
careless and reckless driving of the
chief feminine character in the story.
On these scenes is built most of the
subsequent story. -.
A dislocated shoulder, many bruis-
es and several miles of valuable neg
ative were the net results. The produc-
er refused to use the customary dunn
my in this series of scenes. Hence the
bruises and injured shoulder.

Daughters" James Young's First
National picture version of an origi-
nal story by Dana Burnet, comes to
Caughren Theatre Tuesday of next
week.
Devoid of the dry sentiments of
so many pictures dealing with timely
topics, Wandering Daughters" is
said to be pleasingly different and
highly entertaining drama, appealing
to the most discriminating critics of
the screen.
Revealing the adventures of two
debutantes enamored of male vamp
and their activities in his company,
Wandering Daughters" develops
many unusual angles and numerous
surprising situations as it runs its
length, according to its critics, and
the entrance of two respective faith
ers into the social affairs of their in
experienced daughters is reported
both amusing and highly dramatic.
Marjorie Daw and Marguerite de
la Motto are cast as the two principal
wandering daughters" and William
V. Mong, Noah Berry and Allen For
rest are assigned the leading male
roles.

Are two beings for one another
after all? Is there some power that
determines even before our birth our
fates and mates in life? Here is the
story of two humans whose tempera-
ment and desires and hopes, whose
love for beauty and happiness fell
across misery, ugliness and blackness
like clear beacon fire across rest
less dark waters. And in the end they
met and lived life of glorious hap
piness. "The Fog" tells their story.

IN THE CIRCUIT COURT

John Campbell VS.. VIM. Udelhofen,
a suit for $4,000 damages, went to a
jury yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Camp
bell, Potosi mail carrier, alleged that
on Oct. II, 1921, a Briscoe car driven
by Udelhofen crashed into his car as
it stood at the Likens bridge in Har-
rison township. Mr. Campbell was
putting water into the radiator at the
time. The car crashed against him,
breaking a knee cap and decorating
his leg. AS result he has been an
invalid since.
The defense claimed that the
Campbell car was obstructing the
highway and that an accident was
unavoidable. r. NJ Orchard appear
ed for Campbell and David Gardner
Jr. for Udelhofen.
Dan Van Malta VS.. Chester Graham,
was argued before jury yesterday.
Both men are Fennimore farmers
and Van Malta asked $4,000 DAM
ages from Graham for assault. He
claimed that last October while
threshing an argument arose be-
tween him and Phillip Graham, Ches-
ter's father Graham was knocked
or fell from a haystack. Later, Van
Malta testified, both Grahams at
tackled him, breaking his nose and
cutting dec holes in his forehead.
He was under a doctors care suffer
ing great pain and humiliation. Geo
B. Clementson represented Graham
and A. w. Kopp appeared for Van
Malta.
