JS4 g: If IS- jr--'r ,»*i jji That started me investigating. I learned that Macldey had sim ply used die methods introduced by the famous hone trainer, Jesse Beety. Beery, I learned, used to go about die country (dving won derful exhibitions in colt-breaking and horse-training but iralrying that he could accomplish more by teaching his methods by mail, had given up his exhibition work la spread his horse-training secrets by mail-instruction. Mackley had studied Beery's Course in his spare time ana in a few mondis was able to accomplish magical results with green colts andhanea with bad habits. h! Other Successes ADVERTISEMENTS How LMake Bi&Money By J. A. BUTLER BOUT two yean ago I witnessed up in New York State an exhibition of horse training that opened my eyes. A man by the name oi Macldey took a devil of a mean, vicious man that hadn't been harnessed for seven months and in a.few days had her contle enough for a school girl to diive. Mackley had taken the mate off the owner*s hands for $50 and just ten days after sold her for $i 75J00L A clear profit of $125.00 in tea days! ... Macjdey*s work showed me away to make some nice money and I determined to take Prof. Beery's Course in horse-haining—but before doing so I made further inqunies. Here are what a few of Beery's students said. I'll let diem tell of their success in their own Words. Mr. S. L. Arrant writes: "Justtotest Beery's. methods, 1 bought the worst balky, locking, horsel could find. Paid $65.00 for him. After handling him only a few "hours according to Beery's system I sola him lor $135.00. Mr. Dell Nicholson, Portland, Mich., writes: I have trained a four year old mare that was given up byeverybody. Bought her for $35.00, and now have her so gentle, my little boy hsndles her. Wouldn't take $200.00 for her. Dean L. Smith, Findley, Ohio, writes: By following Beery's instructions have changed a worthless, dangerous balker into a horse worth $225.00. Everett McBlock, Elkhart, HL, writes: Have just broken a pony to drive and taught it some tricks. Owner bought it for $17.50. Paid me $40 to train it, He just sold it to a show company for $150.00.

But, when you apply Beery's principles, there is no hard, long work or injury to die colt. No one should have a biting, kicking or balky horse when it is so easy to cure these vicious habits. No one should attempt to break a cok the old fashioned way when Beery's methods make the task so easy. To every horse owner, to every lover of horseflesh, my advice is to get acquainted with the Beoy principles.

D.: Will you kindly give ine such information as you can in regard to the Nonpartisan league, its promoters and its affiliation withother organiza tions, the benefits accruing from its platform and its laws to the farmer, merchant and banker, anil whether or not you have found its workings a success for the people of North Dako ta^ This information will be held in confidence and greatly appreciated. We inclose return envelope and post age for reply. -Yours very truly, G. C.. FIELD, Cashier Offerle, Kan. sSSj Farmers State Bank, Offerle, Kan: As a citizen of Grand Folks I have been able to judge the reforms of the Nonpartisan league movement more closely than men in-other parts of the state or country. The first great publicly owned tertninal elevator and flour mill will be under, way here within a month. The elevator will hold 1,500,000 bushels of wheat and the mill will grind 3,000 barrels of flour a day. The establishment of these plants in Grand Forks has been made possible through ,& financial alliance between the farmers, merchants and bankers of this vicinity. The bonds are being sold locally and the bankers of the city have guaranteed to dispose of $1,000. 000 worth of them. The great trouble with North Da kota has been that all its business has been transacted outside the state. The .farmers have shipped their grain down to the Minneapolis mills, paying the freight charges, and then had to pay the return freight on the flour and middlings to feed their stock. The building of home industry through state enterprise is now conceded to be a wise financial move. The cost of flour and of mill feeds will be decreas ed and the price paid to the farmer for his grain will go up. CITES EXPERIENCE WITH DRAKE MILL Just as an experiment the state ad ministration purchased a small flour mill in the interior of the state. It is paying from 20 to 30 cents more-for wheat than are the country elevators. 1 spoke only the other day to a farm er who had made $334 above the local elevator price by shipping a carload of grain to the little state mill. This is not an unusual occurrence and ex plains the interest of the farmers in the Nonpartisan league movement. They consider that they will get back their membership dues" and their in creased taxes many times over through the public milling of their wheat. The state has also established a central bank in which the bankers of "the state carry most of their reserves. This is designed mainly to give cheap TWELVE ONLY POLITICIANS HAVE SUFFERED QTiaflfiul A-r#t president of the St&te Bankers'' asso ciation, believes that he can lower the interest by 2 per cent within two years. This cheap money will un doubtedly be of great benefit to the upbuilding of the state. Another of the institutions "origi nated by the Nonpartisan league ad ministration is the home building as sociation. This is operated on the same plan as the building and loan as sociations, except it is run at cost. Under this plan the state will build a home for any man who has deposited savings with it amounting to 20 per cent of the value of the place. "Hub undoubtedly will attract a thrifty kind of citizen to this state. Hoping that this will explain the points you inquired about and that you will let me know what the condi tion is in Kansas Lam, loans to farmers. The' amortization time can make big money in the tailor plan is used by which a borrower.pays husmess and_ quote you prices sa, 7 per cent, on his loan each year for 32 years and extinguishes the loan at the end of that tim$.

SAWDUST FERTILIZER Sawdust used as bedding appears to be valuable for manuring heavy soils. /When used for bedding hordes the sawdust heats rapidly, especially if left in^a pile. "The fermentation un der this condition is likely to causes serious injury to the manure. The* remedy is to mix it with cow manure.- If-the mixture is not spread at once, the heap should be kept moist and: compact. Under favorable conditions the sawdust decomposes rapidly and contributes valuable elements to the soil. CUTS CLOTHING PRICES Here's a way to save $10 to $20 on your next suit. Simply drop a card to L. E. Lawson, manager of the Lincoln'' Woolen Mills Co., 200 S. Green St.,"" w® Chicago, IB., and ask him for a copy of hia new tailbring book No. 361 with 'J big cloth samples and latest informa-,' tSon about styles and prices. He willv\/ tell you how men with a little spare tnat yo C.IV-.-'S do it while others are asking such high prices. All orders are sent on approval with the privilege of return* ing if not-satisfactory.—Adv. im -~r IAAMMA benefited by the Nonpartisan league program. Their prosperity is re flected in that of tike merchants and bankers, since we all depend upon agriculture for our profits. The only merchants or bankers that have suf fered in this state are those who have fought their farmer customers and got into politics. Whenever the oppo sition to the farmers becomes severe they establish co-operative stores and banks of their own, where they are not molested. Many charges have been made against the leaders of the Nonpartisan league but none of them* v'i have ever been proved. The farmers are satisfied with their leaders and always say that it is no one else's business who they choose to lead their organization. So far as I know there ^.5 is no affiliation with any other organi zation, but is simply an association of farmers who vote to put their own men in office. Their single aim is to reform the wastes in marketing. They believe that the men who handle their grain are paying them too low a price and charging them too Ugh a price for the finished products. This is at the basis of the Nonpartisan league. m*C '3*4si£ 1 4^- V." *1*3 Vtfii N /r,
