Farm prices and court rulings spark debate across states
Wholesale farm products rose 29 percent since 1913 while metals 39 percent and foods 50 percent, prompting calls for agricultural justice. The U S Supreme Court ruling on Senator Newberry’s bribery conviction is seen as a narrow escape, and Valley City endorses the Times-Record as official city paper for public notices. North Dakota Farm Bureau highlights cost of production as a price driver and urges cooperative marketing to stabilize returns. Public health enforcement urged as smallpox and chickenpox report compliance improves city health. Welcome extended to Modern Woodmen delegates as Valley City hosts state convention with official protocol and a banquet.
