Thinking Time for Farmers.

There are issues this year such as never before confronted the farmer, and they must be studied fairly and impartially, if the greatest good to the greatest number is to result Spellbinders are going about the country throwing dust and obscuring the real issues. But it is the quietness of his home, around the family lamp with newspapers, magazines and books on the table, that the farmer must decide who is entitled to his vote this year. To reach a right conclusion is to save the nation; to reach an erroneous conclusion is to imperil his own welfare and national prosperity as well. Let the farmer see to it that he be not led astray by false friends nor hoodwinked into accepting fallacious theories and idle promises. Upon the men and measures now up for his consideration and selection depend national prosperity and progress as never before.— Wisconsin Fanner.
