the average mortgage debt per
mortgased farm in Minnesota.
which according to the U. S. GEN.
sus Of 1880 was 1874. Figuring
interest at 5h per cent, the an
nual interest payment on this
average debt per farm is $3.50. On
the basis OF the average farm
price Of wheat in Minnesota in
1919, it required only ll6 BUSH
els of wheat to pay this interest:
In 1925 it required l73 bushels
and at the present farm price
OF IS cents bushel. TAB bushels
are necessary. Similarly. in terms
Of hogs, to pay the $500 in 1919
the farmer had to sell only seven
250-pound hogs: in 1925 it re-
CURED about 10 head. and at the
present price of So per hundred
weight the farmer must sell 80
hogs. The farmer selling butter
fat could pay this interest with
433 pounds in 1919: with SOL
pounds In 1928: but at. the price
Of % cents that has prevailed
recently, 1t required 1882 pounds
or the total production of about
six average cows.
Generally speaking, the economic
troubles Of the farmers come under
four general heads: Commodity
prices. mortgage indebtedness, inter-
est and taxes.
Farm leaders are urging initiation
or cancellation Of some of the rural
obligations to bring things back into
balance. The situation calls for des-
pcratc remedies, but none has been
safely worked out as yet. Grave dam
ger often lies in accepting a cure
which may be worse than the present
economic ills. In times such as these,
panaceas, theories and solutions flood
the nation, finding expression
through the press or in legislative
lobbies.
There is hope that the present dis
,ussion before many state and fed
,ral legislative committees will evolve
safe remedy to start business
oward greater volume and more
stable prices.
In handling the situation from the
Of the state, there are
limitations. 1t is i'm
'ossible to impair contracts. There
S no legal machinery to force prices |
Upward. For most Of the ills a solu-
ion must necessarily lie with WASH
ngton.
There are ways, however, in which
state can be helpful and that is in |
the functions OF govern
nent and easing the tax load. For
ears government has spread out into
many doubtful experiments which
lave been costly and futile in so far
S they have aided agriculture. Few
tates have escaped this situation. It
las all been an unwholesome trend.
These are vital issues for the law
makers. Other minor issues can be
gnored until the great problems
AVE been tackled.

Speedy Action

!. North Dakota was among the Is
. states which indicated its dissatisfac-
! ton with prohibition last fall and for
: that reason, if for no other, citizens
of this state will welcome the speedy
manner in which the judiciary COM
mittee of the national senate disposed
. Of the constitutional amendment.
But out here in the farming area
|, there Is also another reason for wish
ing the prohibition issue definitely out
OF the way. More than anything else.
we need definite action looking toward
amelioration Of the country's economic
Ills. Food, clothing. opportunity for
education and score Of other things
. are more important right now than
whether or not we are to have legal
, beer.
n To be sure, the matter must be dis
posed Of, definitely and as quickly as
possible, but the people of North
Dakota will hardly agree that it is the
g,most important issue before the ma
! tton.
\ On the other hand, the pressure for
4 action on the prohibition amendment
and the legalization Of beer is tremen-
dobs in the east. There it has been
,injed up with the tax issue more
STRONGLY than here and the people ap-
pa1ontly feel that stein on the table
woulA be cheering influence under
preseAt conditions.
Whatever the reason, it is evident
that adequate consideration Of the
farm dqd related questions will have
. Insufficient consideration until the
peolaibition issue is out Of the way
FOR that reason, If for no other, 1t Is
desirable that It be disposed Of
/ quickly.

SHADES OF BELAsCO

SHADES OF BELASCO
New York, Jan. 10.-I'm not quite
sure Just how the late David Belasce
would take to the notion that a
woman Is not only at the helm Of the
theater which bears his name, but
also Is just about the most talked
about producer in Manhattan.
One thing Is certain, If M. Belasco
turns over in his grave the incident
WILL be accompanied by certain unre-
corded temblors under the earth and
the glow worms will turn on their
tiny kleigs Just above the surface OF
the earth.
Mr.. Belasco did not doubt for a
moment that women were artists
emotional superiors Of male perform
ers ana all the rest-but he did like
to run the show Ia Belasco!

 The official announcement of the company, stated:
 'The stanley Works of New Brl. tain, Conn, have no connection with the Stanley Electric Lamp Works, who have been found to be Japanese concern, and they regret tho confusion that has been caused in the trade because these Japanese electric bulbs havo been marketed In the United States in packages which by their color scheme, type design and printing of brand name appear to be Q product | of the stanley Works"

 In commenting further on this type of business practice, MT Ben' nett said:
 "No one can deny the right of an- other nation, or of any individual to engage in the salo of lawful mer- chandise in competition with others.
