"Something must be done to lower expenses of the farmer. Prices of farm products should be higher and should lie stabilized. 1 know of a farmer in North Jlakota who shipped a carload of potatoes last fall and was out $U0 on the transaction after he paid the freight and furnished the sacks. Of course, he had the exer cise in handling the potatoes. "Bankers and business men of North and South Dakota.

It is time for the farmers to gt t on the inside and look out and this curi be done thtough organization. It is up to the people to say what kind of a government they want. We need agitation and education.' .Mr. Frazier asserted that there is no reason why the federal reserve bans, should rot be operated in the interests of the people rather than in the interests of the bankers.

Children are full of life, and natur ally become hungry sooner than grown people, so that it in advisable that they should have two slices of bread and a glass of milk in the middle of the morning, and again in the afternoon, to make up for the amount of energy they use in their play.

"Oil, the Billboards,’ --Walpole Creative Side of America Appeals to English Nov • elist in Omaha for Lecture; Admires Willa Gather, Hergesheimer, Sinclair Lewis. "It is the art, the creative side of America, which interests me the most as I travel about through your coun try," said Hugh Walpole yesterday morning in Omaha. Mr. Walpole spoke yesterday afternoon before the Kino Arts society at Hotel Fontenelle,. The English author arrived Friday morning on a train several hours late, brealtfastless and wretched, ac cording to the' traditional custom of bis countrymen, at having had no time for a bath and change. He is a tall, ruddy faced man, appaVently In his late thirties. "Warring against these creative Im pulses there is the strong materialistic tendency, big business, money get ting,” the novelist continued. "They are exactly opposed to each other,'anti I wonder often which will win. The money, probably. Finds Many Changes. "But I find many changes In America since I was here three years ago, an increasing interest in things artistic. There are many more of the attractive, red brick houses in the Coloulal style, which is so suitable to America, and so much better archi tecturally than the old frame type of house. And I find homes that are eflarntingly furnished and really well decoiated. But, oh, the b^ll boards which you allow to be placed in all the most beautiful spots! Mr. Walpole does not intend to write a book about America. His im pressions of it he considers to<j su perficial. "It does not stir the creative im pulse for some reason. 1 suppose it is Europe’s historic past which is in spiring. I think a man writes best always about his own country, It Is where his roots are,” lie went on. Mr. Walpole’s own favorites among his novels are "The Green Mirror” and his latest hook, “The Cathedral." i He ranks Joseph Hergesheimer and i Sinclair Lewis as the leading novel ists of the t'nited States, with Willa Cather ids choice among women writ j ers, "I have not been back to Russia since tho armistice, but friends tell : me that hundreds of shops are open ing in Moscow and Petrograd and business is getting on the old basis again,” Mr. Walpole said. He is the author of the “Dark Forest,” a novel with Russia in the first year of the war. "As capital goes into Russia the country will become more stabilized. It is the only solution in sight for their problems. Russia has the resources to ho a tremendous economic power, i and I thipk she will bo in the near future.” lie concluded.
