(BY CHAS. E. TAYLORl

"The Herald has consistently
endeavOred to keep its columns
free from the attacks ON the
character of any individual. We
could never see how any good
could come from such vilifica-
ton, and at the same time how
the printing of such personal
attacks might only bring suf-
ferlng to innocent peOple"-it
is to laugh!
Let any reader read the files of
the Plentywood Herald since Harry
Polk became its owner; read the
files during the election campaign
of 1928, read the files during the
election campaign of 1880. Was
there any depths too low for the
Herald to stoop to? No.
Now Harry weeps over suffer
ings of innocent people" this year.
Harry innocent people. Harry
never weeps over Taylor's "inno-
cent people" Harry is this time,
trying to save his own skin, to
hide behind his family's skirts,
while carrying on a campaign from
his North Dakota perch to beat
the farmers of Sheridan county.
Personalities don't fit in with
Harry's program this year. That
is Harry says so. Especially the
facts involving Harry. Harry
wants to wage the campaign on
the high plane of principle, the
Harry does not comprehend the
meaning of the word. In the very
issue which contained his whine
about character assassination,
Harry spews forth this:
cit is no time to assign gov
ernmental responsibilities to /.
men who would overthrow the
4 Christian religion and substitute
in its stead the practice of 'tfree
love" and ''paganism."
Magnns Danielsen may be the
finest kind of a man personally
But the fact remains that
he is running for office as a
Communist. and by that
token would overthrow cur
religion and our government"
The above dirty attack, persona
and otherwise, in reference to tn
, candidacy of Magnus Danielsen 70
the office of county commissions
on the Communist ticket, is Harr
Folks idea of campaigning on
high plane. Harry says: 1--WE
never could see where any goo
could come from such vilification.

The insinuations of 'free love"

BUSINESSMEN FIGHT
PICKETING

Picketing of Watford City,
North Dakota elevators stopped
last week after the subject had
been debated at a mass meeting
on October 1. The attack on the
picketing came from the ranks of
the business men, who said that
they were in sympathy with the
Holiday movement but said that
Watford City should not be pick
eted as long as other cities were
not picketed in the county. This
excuse has been used by business
men all thru the northwest to stop
picketing. They would be for
picketing if it were general" but
=. This is; their way of strike
breaking.
At meeting of the Farmers
Holady group in Dale township, in
Burke county, N. D., on Monday
evening, Oct. 8, every farmer pres
ent declared himself ready to go
out and picket the roads if nee
essary, to prevent produce ban
ned by the strike order from going
to market.
Twenty-six townships in Botti-
neau county, North Dakota, have
been organized in the Holiday
Movement.

About 500 farmers were On the
job today, and 1000 are expected
to be on the job in a day or SO.
The members of the UnemplOy-
ed Council have agreed to put
on a united front with the farm
ers and help them on the picket
lines.
The chief deputy sheriff, Law
renee Green, and Claude Hamilton
and Omer HOkenstad, inspected the
lines and said no action would be
taken unless complaint was signed
by "an aggrieved party" If some
body should sign such a complaint
Lawrence Green says that he will
start with arrests. When asked
what the pickets would be charged
with he said, eve can charge
them with vagrancy. They have
no business stopping traffic Oh a
state and county highway.
The officers of the Farmers
Holiday Association showed that
they did not approve of any
picketing. The secretary said
that he did not believe that the
board of directors would sane
ton the action taken by the rank
and file of the organization.
The farmers are out to win.
They said that if any of them are
arrested they would visit the Jail
with a delegation to demand the
release of the strikers. They
pledged to get them out if they
had to break out the side of the
Jail.

Clean EGGS Help
Poultry Profits

An important source of additional
revenue is being overlooked by poultry
men who are not producing clean eggs,
according to w. D. Buchanan, state
college extension poultryman. Clean
eggs bring more money than dirty eggs
and through the use Of recently de-
veloped methods 1t is possible to pro-
duce as high as 90 per cent clean eggs.
Any method by which 90 per cent Of
the eggs may be kept clean is good.
There are several more or less stand-
ard methods that usually bring ex-
cellent results.
The first of these Is the use of gyp-
sum troughs which were introduced by
Walter Lohrer Of Olympia. The use
Of these troughs resulted in so many
clean eggs that Mr.. Lohrer was
amazed at the increase In the size Of
his egg check. Gypsum troughs are
still highly effective and will keep
most of the eggs clean. This method
also has the advantage of being COM
paratively inexpensive.
Keeping the litter clean will also
produce clean eggs. Although It is
hard to keep litter clean, 1t Is likely
that the greater returns for clean eggs
will more than offset the extra cost Of
frequent cleaning. II there is no dirt
to get on the hens feet, it will not be
tracked into the nests and the eggs
will not be soiled.
However, clean litter and gypsum
troughs will not keep the eggs clean If
the nests are soiled. Clean Straw,
clean nests and gypsum tro,,shs give
results that are hard to surpass. Mar
row jump boards at mash hoppers and
drinking troughs, and In front of the
nests, aid in keeping eggs clea,,, Where
the expense is not prohibitive, nests
with wire bottoms SO constructed that
the egg rolls out before the second hen
enters are highly effective. This also
makes the frequent gathering Of eggs
less necessary. The nests should be
brushed occasionally to remove any
droppings or litter which r.iay have
become lodged on the wire bottoms.
Detailed information reg adding
methods Of producing clean eggs may
be secured by writing to your county
ageEt or to the Extension Service,
Pullman, Wash.

Several months ago she started to
work making a WOODEN afghan and

profits from the annual Orthopedic

to win the afghan and pillow they will
be the object Of envy as it is coveted
by large circle of Mrs. Beall's ardent
admirers.
Mrs. Beall, through her untiring
work sets an example to many younger

Burton Resident
Totally Destroyed

Fire from an undetermined origin
totally destroyed the Barger home Ii
Burton early Wednesday morning. TIKI
fire, which was discovered by DR.
Grandy a little before four o'clock
had made such headway that the ROOF
OF the house was falling In when the
neighbors whom he summoned by
phone arrived on the scene. All that
was saved was a few articles from Q
room at the rear Of the house. BY
hard work the garage was also saved
The origin Of the fire will probably
never be determined as the occupants
were all absent at the time, spending
the holidays with Mrs. Barger's mother
In Seattle.
The Barger family upon coming to
Burton some three years ago purchased
home Immediately from the Browns,
who now reside in Newport. They OF
once remodeled the house, converting
1t into an attractive, modern residence,
one Of the most complete in Burton.
Existing conditions made the loss Of
their home at this time particularly
unfortunate, as Mr.. Barger is in the
East, and Mrs. Barger must live on
the coast on account Of her health.
The fire was particularly spectacular
and beautiful. Located on the inner
harbor the great pillar Of fire, as the
house burned, was reflected in the
still water. Norman Edison, always the
artist, never answers the call of fire"
without his camera and on this occas-
ion, as on several previous ones, sue
ceeded in getting beautiful picture
OF the conflagration.
Just how nearly the loss of the
property destroyed is covered by In
surance is a matter Of conjecture, but
1t is understood that it is at least
partially insured.
