Is This Farm Relief?

Dairymen of the state confronted with the
serious problem of losing their markets to foreign
importers unless united effort is put forth to curta
foreign competition Tariff reductions have increased
the mportations of butter in 1885 to 1948 per cent
over 1884 The amount of butter shipped in last year
was 22,674,0O0 pounds, which in terms of milk
amounted to 11180OO0OO pounds At 1000 pounds of
milk per year for the average it took approx
imaely $4,000 head of foreign dairy to produce
that butter Our domestic markets being taken

Not So wild About Benson
Governor Olson's prearranged
scheme to have his friend Elmer
Benson succeed him in the COVER
norship may not work out just as
expected. The Blue Earth County
Farmer-Labor Convention refused
to endorse Benson and elected an
unpledged delegation. Other coun-
ties are likely to do likewise. The
friends Of Magnus Johnson and
Hjalmar Peterson can be counted
on to stop this endorsement move
ment wherever they have the pow
er to do so. The governor begins to
realize that there Is some dynamite
in the situation and has announc-
ed that q free open primary might
be better than endorsements at a
convention. It probably won't make
so much difference to the governor,
because he Is not likely to have eff
fective opposition for nomination
for Senator. But if Mr.. Benson falls
by the way side, after having sac
rificed himself for the Governors
good, he may begin to realize that
the public does not take kindly to
prearranged schemes for perpet-
uating a political dynasty.-The
Murray County Herald.
Importing Butter
In the past weeks the farmers of

of our dinner was fairly reason

his wallet a bundle of Russian

pulled a creased 5-dollar note out

horror he told me that if I had
one of these notes, he would gladly
hand over all the dirty Russian
scraps of paper in his left hand
for it.
I sternly refused to pay the II
roubles for the chicken. The
young American had come with

Soldiers, peasants, women AND
children sat in three layers over
one another. We had never seen
anything like it. Would it not be
better to turn back? We stopped
to discuss this question, but the
guard beckoned gaily to us and
looked so friendly that we decided
to follow him.
Our friend passed us on to a
colleague Of his who also seemed
a good fellow. now offered him a
50-kopek tip which imagined was
quite a handsome one, but he re-
fused the money and pointed with
his fingers to his open mouth.
There was no mistaking that geS.
ture: The man was hungry.
We had very little with us in
the way Of food-only q cake of
chocolate and small packet OF
sandwiches from Berlin which we
thought it hardly worth while to
offer him. We did not understand
a word of his torrent of talk, but
we came to the conclusion that
he had probably forgotten to bring
his lunch.
Both the guards seemed very
anxious to make us understand
and geSticulated violently.
My wife said:
Don't you think that what
they are saying is that they
are terribly hungry? Let us
see what they say to what we've
got"
While they talked to us they
kept a sharp lookout as If they
did not want to be caught at it.
My wife handed them the
food, at the same time making
a sign that they were welcome
to it.
AS directly as possible I let them
know that they had better be
off as we had nothing more to
give them.

twice. It went down as fast as
