not want to keep. This situation has
come upon them at time when they
have plenty Of other burdens, but
the most distressing thing Of all is
The case of the farmer who has work
ed hard for more than the allotted
time, sold his farm for more than he
had ever hoped to receive for it, get
ting a payment down and very large
mortgage back. He moved into the
village, bought a house, tied up his
spare cash and now he finds he has
to take his farm back and possibly
go back and till It.
It is initiation and deflation that
does the damage.
The price of farm lands is going to
be deflated. The price of almost
everything else is being deflated. A
striking example is that of the farm
implement business. Possibly the
prices of the implements have not
yet been deflated much, but the divi-
dends for the stockholders have, and
in due time the wages of the men in
the implement factories will be. Fac
tories cannot run full crews indefin-
itely if the farmers do not buy.
Bought Shares in Schemes
Another factor which has caused
much embarrassment to many of the
farmers has been the practice during
! the past five years of buying shares
in various schemes which were pro-
NOTED. They have not only bought
shares, but have signed notes and
guaranteed accounts and thus brought
an additional burden upon themselves
in many cases. 1t is believed that
more than half million dollars has
been lost in Otter Tail county alone
in the past five years by purchasing
shares in cooperative stores, news.

railways, farm implement PROPOSE.

some extent of the constant influx Of

In addition to this it produces oranges,

More Gasoline Than Cream

Some time ago. called attention to
the great progress which we were
making in dairying in Otter Tail coun-
ty and to the large amount which was
daily paid out for cream. I also
called attention to the fact that each
day from April to November the
county paid as much for gasoline as
it got for cream, which the hogs,
poultry and eggs would hardly pay
for TIE tires, oil, repairs and acccs-
sories. This leaves the wheat to pay
the interest and the { yes and when
there is little wheat sown and the
price is low. We must have it stabilized
or times viii be tough
deposits in the banks 10 the north

saving and geJtin- ricaef The spend
ers are depoeiting with Ford and
Rockefeller. The result $ apparent.

but it is a very general habit
just the same, and men who do
not themselves think they are
profane or to be classed as habit
ual users of profanity make use
of that type of language much
more than they realize. In Hol-
land there is a law against pro-
family. The police arrest any
one overheard talking profanely.
This is a good law. 1t ought to
be corrective so far as audible
swearing is concerned, but we
doubt if there is any law that
will ever change the mental
curse that sometimes is not ut
tered, but is none the less
thought. 1t is a bad habit. Cut
it out, law or no law, for it
neither sounds well nor is worth
anything. 1t cheapens conver-
sation and shows a lack of
knowledge of better words to ex-
press the same idea.-Lowell

fine highways in Delaware will
be asked to contribute a very
small amount for a gift to Gen
eral DUPONT, which will be a
magnificent testimonial of silver
and gold representing the con-
tour of the State and showing
the boulevard. Appropriate tab
lets will be erected along the
boulevard telling its history.
Every district in the State will
be organized for the celebration,
and various bodies will have
membership on the general COM
mittee. Citizens of Delaware IL
respective of politics should call
TO mind what this gift of a
boulevard has meant to the
State and it's people. Behold
the record! The boulevard runs
from Selbyville to Wilmington,
trifle more than SO miles. The
total cost has been $4,856,O98.20.
Of this amount General T. Cole
man DUPONT contributed $685.
230.20, and the cost to the State
has been $93O,868.OO. The road
was started personally by Gener-
al DUPONT before a State High
way Commission was created,
and it was built from a point
south of Georgetown to a point
north of Glendale. 1t has taken
twelve years to complete the
road. The original estimate in
! 1911 by General duPont's en-
gineers was S1,400,000 as the
entire cost. Delays and the in
creased cost of construction
have added nightly to the to-
tai amount required, so that
General duPont's gift has been
far larger that was expected by
the State or by him, and is the
greatest of the kind in the his
tory of the country, or in the
world, for that matter.
