FARMER AWARD FIASCO
BY w. F. Schilling, Mortified,
in tho CT PaI1l DiSnatnh

by w. r. Scnllllng, NOrtnnelQ,
in the ST. Paul Dispatch.
l note that the grand finale of the
banner button" campaign has been
enacted at the Capitol in the pres
ence of about $50 actual farmers and
half that number of spectators. There
are some 100000 farmers in the
state and, despite all the newspaper
space, a fund of about S5O,00O Stole
Elliott, expert propaganda, the gov
ernor, radio time and advertising
space in country papers, less than
200 farmers deemed themselves wor-
thy of the insignia made for them
and participated.
What beautiful fiasco, from start
to finish. Of course something had
to be done to compensate Ole Flat
for getting off the political track
that Eddie Thye might have a clear
field, but to ask each farmer to
recommend himself for button and
badge on account of 1912 production,
is like telling little Johnnie to tell
his mother that he was a good boy.
Outwardly it has been suggested
that the township board recon-
mended these candidates for the
awards but in truth every man who
sent his name in to the county board
was recognized. In one township the
township clerk sent in the entire
polling list of the township, saying
that their board did not care to stick
their neckS out.
We got good crops last year
better crops than had ever been har-
vested in the 43 years that I have
been farming. But it was due to
no special effort on the part of the
farmers and no superfluity of patri-
otism distending their conscience.
The weatherman deserves more
credit for the extra good crop than
any extra effort on the part of the
farmer. 1t was the very first time
in my 43 years farming that the
weather was conducive to good
crop of grain, corn, pasture and hay.
Usually weather that makes for a
good grain crop, cool night, ETC., is
the wrong kind of weather for a
good corn crop. But 1912 weather
changed after the grain crop was
off the ground and we got moisture
and heat in time for to make good
corn crop and to revive the de-
pleting pastures.
1t will be we'll for the bankers,
packers and others who contributed
to this promotion fund to remember
that all this so-called patriotism,
among farmers and workers alike, is
quite largely based on how much are
hogs and milk and wages, just as do
the privately owned and government
financed defense plants. Otherwise,
the farm being also production for
defense plant, would get chance to
get some of the help that is going
to the defense plants at prices that
the farmer cannot afford to pay.
Many people would eat the covers
off their ration books before taking
job on a, farm to help win the
war at wages the farmer has to pay.

The chief opposition was appar.

MUCH INTEREST NOW
TAKEN IN RELIGIOUS
THINGS. SAYS WOOD

Pastor H. L. Wood, Superintendent
of the Alaska Mission of Seventh
day Adventists, returned to Juneau
last evening completing week S
trip in Southeast Alaska with the
Mission Fairchild airplane. In spite
of some bad flying weather the
pastor visited Ketchikan, Craig,
Owens Brothers Logging Camp,
Wrangell and Petersburg.
The mission superintendent states
that never since he has been in
Alaska has there been SO much
interest in religious things.
THE National Bible Week show
ed great interest in the holy scrip
lures and the stock of bibles at the
Alaska Bible House was greatly re-
duced," said Pastor Wood. 1.-The
global war and the prospects for the
future are causing many to study the
prophetic portions of the bible as
never before Alaska churches of
all denominations should be well
filled this winter season. Pastor
Mere Smith, of Homer, Alaska, is
building a new Seventh-day Adven-
tist Church in that growing COM
munity."
