The Producers News
Electromagnetic
(BY HANS RASMUSSEN

RuInors have been circulated
that the Producers News was go
ing to leave the county soon.
Those who are spreading these
Gumors simply don't know what
they are talking about. The Pro-
ducers News is here to stay.
What is going to happen in tie
flrst part of January is. that the
national edition CT the Producers
News. which we have printed here
for more than two years, is going
to be moved to Chicago, where it
Will be amalgamated with two or
more other radical farm papers
and come out as the Farmers Ma
tionaf Weekly.
That this amalgamation, and the
more central location, will be Of
great benefit to the farmers move
ment. there can be no doubt, and
We wish the paper in it's new form
great success.
, For more than two years we
have printed the national edition
here. And, we really have some
tning to be proud of. From this
little out-of- the-way corner of the
world we have spread the Produc-
ers News all over the United
States and to MANY parts outside
We were the ones who first took
up the slogan of "No more sher-
ifs sales and no more evictions.
Through the Producers News this
slogan was taken up by farmers
everywhere until it reached to the
governors, and to the president Of
the United States and they sat vi
and took notice.
From being a good little county
paper the Producers News becam,
a paper with national weight, /;
leading paper for farmers from
coast to coast. But most of GU
people here at home did not un
derstand this. and many have BEEF
the complaints coming in about
the county paper not being a
good as it used to be. And we
| have to admit that the count,
: paper has been neglected the pas
two years.
We simply couldn't do anything
else. We have only had a yer
limited amount of money to wor
with. The national problem wa
the most important of the two an
} gave the national edition the RICH
t of way. The county paper has
come out late most of the time
: and it did not have the news an
5 local stuff that people wanted. W
"a knew these things but we couldn
help it. we couldn't set any MOI
a type than we did because we didn
d have the money.
After New Years it is going
: be different. Then the Producer
News will again be the count
e paper as it was before. We wi
: get it out on time and its spaC
e will be devoted to problems of Il
: cal interest and more news.
/ We want every farmer, not onl
It here in Sheridan county but ais
in Roosevelt and Daniels. and {
) the. Dakota side, to get ready rigl
r now and help us put this papt
r over big. Pay up your old SUI
scription and get us a lot of ne
: subscribers. We also want Ii
# correspondents. not only fro
n Sheridan county but from the a
d joining counties as well.
e The Farmers National Weekly
10 going to be the national paper al
we hope as many farmers as pc
ir sible will subscribe for it. B
E. right here at home among GU
j. selves we also have probler
1T which must be solved. and it is !
TX to ourselves to solve them.
lg For more than .15 years the Pr
ducers News has fought the far
n er's battle from this little corn
lr and has made history for Sherid
ne county. Ali over the United Stat
ed this county is known. Other pape
d, have been in the battle too, b
ne they have lost out. For hundre
in of miles around, the Produce
to News is the only real farme
in paper that survived.
We have a chance now to ma
or the Producers News a more 20
ey erful farmers paper than it eV
to was before land the need for
Sc. right now is greater than it eO
ng was before) by getting every far
ey err in this county and surround
Ist territory to be readers and ST
m porters of the paper. Paw up "
subscription and get all of VI
tie neighbors to subscribe.
