Minn enpoh», Duluth &.Sujenor, cooperating ‘with the fagm buirgau ldst week.sent 1008 ;{arm‘ Jhands to Red River Valley and h .Dakota harvest fields, In one PR 391 men. From August 1 to Apgust 15 in- clisive’ farm hands are traveling from the Twin Cities or the Twin Ports 1o the northwest harvest fields for a flat fare of $5.00 & man, This rate was granted by the railroads after conferences with State and Farm Bureau officials of Minnesota and North bakm, ‘who ‘made rep- resentations showing that.a. drastic fare reduction was the only way in which the farm hand shortage could be satisfactorily met. The rairload-agreed to carry men to any point designated by the gov- ernment employment agencies ‘for $6.00 provided five or more travel together. J. D. Williams, Industrial Com- missioner, direchng the free employ- ment service, expects to supply farmers_ with 3,000 or more men during the 15 day period. Additional data received by F. L. French, secretary of the Minnesota Farm Bureau federation, who is making a labor survey of the state bears out earlier indications that the Red River Va]ley is the only section of Minnesota where there is a farm hand shortsage. SEEKINGINCREASBSIN LAND BANK LOAN LIMIT Actlve steps to obtain legislation mc;cpfimg the loan limit of Federal Land Banks from $10,000 to $25,- 000 were taken last week by J. F. Reed, president of the Minnesota Farm Bureau Federation. In 300 letters to presidents, secretaries of county farm bureau associations and county directors of the state federa- tion he urged that Minnesota Sena- tors and Representatives be asked to support amendments - to Land Bank Laws now pending in Congress. “In ‘many places in Minnesota, the maximum of $10,000 allowed is'in sufficient to meet farmers’ de- mands for cnpnnl investment need- ed in acquiring land or making. im- provements,” the letter says. “It is proposed to raise this limit where the secupity is sufficient. It is gen- erally agreed by all interested in the welfare of the farmer, as well -as those posted in good credit facili- ties, that this change. should be speedily made.” OPPORTUNITIES IN. WANT ADS .

Blaine Lambert and his as- sociate, John Wilkins; a senior. &t Hamline University, arrived in Be- midji Monday from Park Rapids with their ‘Chapel on Wheels” where they have attended the Northern Pine Epworth League Institute. They left St. Paul about five weeks ago in the interests of the M. E. Church E;tensinn service, a Centenary pro- ject this being one of. the four cars used in this work in the U. S:. and have been touring Northern Minne- sotas During that time they have traveled over: 1,820 miles, visiting at the different places and in rural dlstncta, many places: where a re- ligious service is almost unknown. There they have given free stere- optlcmn lectures and held religious services, sometimes as many as three on a Sunday. They have also made a survey of the religious conditions atidifferent places. The car has the apeparance ‘of a large ambulance, painted red, with “The Methodist - Church Extension Service” in large white letters on the side.,A; large drawer over half the length ‘of the car is equipped with free literature, samples of the religious newspapers of the church and tracts in different languages which they are distributing. On both sides of the car shelves are built in on which are arranged the best books and literature, which they are ex- hibiting at the different places and offerng for sale, It is very complete. They ‘have also a very fine stereop- ticion with different sets of slides, They have. stopped’ one or two days at each-place thus far but ex- pect to spend a longer time from now on. - ‘They left this noon for Dorset where they have an appoint- ment for a service’ po(‘\)ght, and from there to go to the uluth.

The tour bringing as it did men from all sections of the country in- terested . in_ all phases of potato growing, cannot fail to? re-act to the ‘benefit of Beltrami county po- tato grovpers, Unfortunately, more local growets could not leave their regular work to take part in the tour. A similar tour is already be- ing} planned for ‘next year. & GOL.
