Crack Down on Corn.
GTA Radio Starts.
Use Your Dial.
Plugs for Farmer.
Close Connections.

Farmers in commercial corn-grow
ing areas are not taking very kindly
to the order of the OPA which fixes
corn. If the order meant that the
producer received S100 bushel, he
might not be so peeved. But that is
the terminal market price and from
1t is deducted freight, commissions
and other charges, which sets the
price the corn producer gets nearer
to rs cents than S1.00 That was the
way the OPA took to celebrate Farm
Mobilization Day, January H. From
President Roosevelt down to and in
Guiding Russian, British officials and
other of our Allies, there came un-
animous pat on the back for tine swell
job the American farmer has done in
feeding the world, and almost in the
same breath along comes the OPA
and pats him in the face with a spade
with an order that knocks down the
price Of wheat, barley, and other
grains in the northwest. Perhaps the
federal government is trying to live
up to the Scriptural injunction: LET
not your right hand know what your
left hand doethl"
That is one Of the reasons why the
GTA started its radio program the
first of the year. 1t has tied up
through WLOL with fourteen local
broadcasting stations in Minnesota.
Montana, North and South Dakota, to
give the farmer the "up and up" and
the "low down" on the actions of fed
eral bureaus and directors as they
affect the welfare and fortunes of the
farmers. This radio broadcast goes
on the air, Mondays to Fridays, at
1:25 pm. est, except at Great Falls,
Mont, which sends at 1:55 pm On
Sundays 1t goes on the air at $50
pm. except at Sidney, Mont, whose
time is 5:15 p. M, and at Great Falls,
Mont, at 300 pm. Here is a list
of the stations from which can be
picked the one nearest you, or the
one that comes In best on your set
One thing is sure, If you are farmer,
and get the message once or twice
you won't want to miss it.
Might not be bad idea to clip this
list from the newspaper and paste it
up, so you can refer to it, later:

Remember, now, the week day time
is 1:25 pm, except at Great Falls,
Mont, where it is 1:55 p. M, and
the Sunday time is $50 pm, except
at Sidney, Mont, which is 5:15 and
at Great Falls, Mont, which is 800
pm.
Another good thing to remember is
that this is not a publicity stunt 1t
Is not commercial either-it plugs
only for the farmer and his interest
in the goings-on down in Washington,
d. c., and in the markets. 1t is to
your advantage to get an advance tip
on some of the moves that are being
made and contemplated Ignorance
may be bliss-but it often raises
blister, on the pocketbook Keep in
the know and you will be fore-armed
for any twist or turn that may be in
the offing. 1t is a service-one of
many-that farmer-owned co-opera-
tive renders its members and patrons
and, on top of that, broadcasts to
every farmer who cares to listen.
The radio mike" is set up in our
st. Paul office, so there is no delay
in transmittal. The message comes
right from the GTA headquarters,
where the news breaks first, because
of telephone and wire communica-
tions direct with Washington and the
markets. The Minneapolis markets
close at 1:15 pm. and 10 minutes later
the GTA Reporter is on the air, talk
ing to the whole northwest. For
close connections, that can't be beat.
AS the days go by, the need of just
such service will be increasingly
felt by every farmer. 1t is a service
that costs the farmer nothing-and it
can easily save him some money, now
that agricultural affairs are so topsy-

Dr. c. c. Carter, City Health Off, ficer, will hold the regular monthly immunization clinic at the. Health Center in the Territorial Building. Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock.
 In addition to the smallpox and diptheria immunizations for infants, opportunity will be given children entering kindergarten this fall to have reinforcement immunizations
 It is also recommended that vac cination for smallpox be done before the child is a year old and repeated on entrance to school. The reaction to the second vaccination is ordin- .arily very mild and does not leave scar but serves to maintain the original immunity.
 Likewise in order to maintain high degree of immunity to diph- theria, it is recommended that every infant receive two doses of toxoid after nine months of age and one reinforcing dose before entering school.

Glory Enough For All

 Our operations in Sicily so far have been per feet example of the coordinated use of arms Not only did the Army Navy and Air Force all play their parts but the various arms of each participated in just the ways they meant to do.
 The Air Force softened up the islands defenses by heavy preliminary bombings, by covering the ac- tua landings, and by cooperating in subsequent land movements. The Air Force secuted out the enemy aided in establishing communications and transport ed troops and paratroops The Navy conveyed the transports supply ships and landing barges fought off enemy raiders and with it's powerful guns served our ashore artillery until the artillery itsef could be brought in. The tanks as soon as avail able attacked as tanks supposed to attack. And the infantry the eternal infantry did what infantry has had to do from time mmemorial-it won and held the ground and pressed home the offensive
 Since the beginning of the war The Daily News has ceased to insist that the only way to light war is to use all available modern weapons in their right proportions in coordinated actions each in Its own time and place How foolish now appear the arguments that swept the country about this or that or the other being obsolete, and about how this or that or the other arm, if produced in sufficient quantities. could alone win the war Are battleships obsolete? But only the other day, our big naval guns were driving off German tank attack agains. our infantry at Gela Are tanks obsolete? But our tanks right now are pushing back the Italians and Germans in the Sicilian hills. Are airplanes all we need? Then why is our infantry having to fight so hard? Are paratroops a doubtful experiment? The Germans, after what our own and the British para troopers have been doing them, certainly do not think
 It is natural for a sports-loving people to follow fads and take sides in arguments over new devices But this war is too serious to be treated as sport ing contest. We need all branches of our armed forces and all the best types of arms we can pro- vide them with. The Air Force can be proud of it's work in Sicily; but can the Navy, and so can the infantry. There is glory enough for all
