TIME TO ADVERTISE

Americas grand total of business intelligence
and economic genius has been on parade ever since
the stock crash started the nation worrying over
the future of our national prosperity If prepared
is any protection against hard times, the pros
perty of the United States is not destined to meet
its Waterloo at this time
Many pertinent things have been said by Presi-
dent Hoover and leaders in industry, commerce, ag
riculture and finance. The discussions have been
school for business from which the careful student
has drawn much common sense and sound business
judgment. DR.. Julius Klein, assistant secretary of
commerce, proved himself one of the most enlight-
ening instructors.
"Wil there be a tendency to reduce advertising
appropriations on the mistaken assumptions that
this is one way of saving money and that existing
conditions make the buying public somewhat less
responsive to advertising appeal?" Doctor Klein
asks the business men, He then answers his own
question:
Advertising should go ahead with all of its
characteristic force. Advertising as whole is one
of the most potent of business accelerators 1t
keeps goods moving, and it inspires confidence At
this time any apprecable letup in advertising pro-
grams would be unquestionably injurious So adj
vertising, we believe, should go forward like our
other business efforts without interruption or cur
tallment 1t is inherently constructive acting as
powerful stimulus to every branch of activity"
1t was back In the dim, dark days of universal
acquiescense to the summer slump that business
was so blind as to curtail its advertising during
periods and seasons of sluggish business Tt is now
that business needs advertising stimulant-Hel.

HOW CHRISTMAS LOOKED TO
THE PURTTANS

Truth is often astounding than fiction. Be
that it may Believe it or not,' Ripley, depos-
eth, sayeth and proveth that the general court of
Massachusetts, in the year 1869 enacted law pro-
vidng "a fine of five shllings for every offense if
a body be found observing, by abstinence from
work, by celebrating or attending religious SER
vice such day as Christmas Day." England
had enacted similar laws about the same time
which were repealed in 1862. Scotland has law on
its statute books which forbids the observance Of
Christmas Day, but suppose it is observed pref
ty much the same way United States citizens OBJ
serve the prohibition laws. The facts Ripley brot
to light peculiarly interesting in view of the
ado made by capitalist writers the attitude Of
the Soviet government towards religious holidays.
Our Puritans anything but Bolshevik.

ANOTHER APPEAL TO RUSSIA

Hardly had the echo of the diplomatic smack de

IN the Sino-SOviet controversy died down than an
other appeal went from Washington to Moscow
this time an appeal for aid on an errand of mercy
Carl Ben Eielson and Carl Borland, American
flyers, have been missing more than six weeks off
The coast of Siberia. Secretary of the Interior Will
bur and Senator Borah sent messages to the Sow
Ell government asking for help in locating the lost
avlators. No sooner had Maxim Litvinoff received
the appeals than his government dispatched three
alrpanes to hunt for the missing birdmen and an
pointed Semyon Shestakov, hero of the Moscow to
New York flight, 10 lead the rescue mission.
The American people are assured that the miss
ing flyers will be rescued if courage and daring
are OF any avail against the inclement weather of
the Siberian wastes. On more than one occasion
already the Soviet airmen have distinguished them
selves In rescue work. The Soviet government has
always responded to the call of distress and vet
our government which claims to have such a svm-
pathetic interest in the welfare of the Russian
people refuses to recognize their government
which alone cf all the governments in the world is
founded for the purpose of serving the interests of
the broad masses and not the propertied classes.

always takes the real joy out of life.

WHO OWNS THE FEDERAL FARM
BOARD?

1t is reported that Julius Barnes head of the
chamber of commerce and Alexander Legge, chair
man of the federal farm relief board have held pri-
vate conferences behind closed doors and that
result of the confabs Mr.. Barnes believes that
things will not go so hard with the grain gamblers
as he feared at first .Legge denies that he gave
any assurance to Barnes that would warrant the
latter being so optimistic.
We confess to being a bit skeptical of Greeks
bearing gifts and when plute like Legge
appear in the role of defender of the farmers
whose international Harvester Trust has been skin
ming them for years, we are frankly cynical
And suspicious are not likely to be weaken
ed on reading that William Mellon big Minneapolis
commission man, or grain gambler, is head of the
new Northwest Grain Cooperative, which is the
recognized agency of the Farm Board in this part
of the country.
We are also suspicious of the stream of publicity
coming from Minneapolis, hostile to the Farmers
Union Terminal Association and to the Montana
North Dakota Wheat Pool, which have not yet af-
filfated with the Northwest Grain Cooperative.
personnel of the Farmers Union and the Wheat
Pool, the rank and file of those organizations are
farmers, not grain gamblers. Farm relief was in
tended for the grain growers and not for the COM
roission men. 1t looks like the farmers will be
left holding the sack more while Barnes and
Legge are shadow boxing in Washington.
The Producers News says to the farmers: Watch
the Federal Farm Board! Do not disband your CO.
operatves See to it that farm relief is controlled
ard the money properly appropriated for the pur
pose it was intended for and not to fatten the
grain gamblers.

Caterpillar Skis Bring
Mail to Rural Farmers

Moccasin, Mont, Dec. 24.-(UP)
Seldom is it that human ingenu-
itv can not prove superior to the
elements. For instance, rural mail
carriers of this district were faceu
this winter with the problem of
getting mail to farmers on remote
and snowbound routes.
Ben Skaggs set the winter trans
nortation mode of this section by
attaching caterpillar snow treads
and skis to his coupe. Depth of
snow holds no fear for him now.
He skins over the top like a jack
rabbit and delivers his mail
promptly to isolated farmers. 9th
or mail carriers of the Moccasin
section are contemplating the same
system as Skaggs.

for the 1000 acre land owner, so the rest OF us

have done for in the past

commissioners proceedings printed In the last is

the Hoover prosperity program has been lived up
to by giving $500 to Fred Ibsen for the month of
November for little work he did in between
times at the court house, and what kick we get
out of reading about the 100000 contract handed
work in the treasurer's office. / always thought
that after Mrs. Christine HOLMAN took the
running of the treasurer's office no more outside
help would be needed and do not see why the
commissioners did not give that little $1,000 to
Mrs. HOLMAN as a Christmas present.
By the way, have known about that $1,000 job
for some time 1t supposed to be slipped over
when nobody was looking. A little bird told me a.
bout it. The way he told me was, that the job was
nothing but graft, pure and simple. The job was
to be given out for $4,000 and one of the commits
sioners to get $4,000 for putting the deal
| Say, Mr.. Outlook Farmer, why don't you go and
have nice little talk with your county commits
