The purpose of the plan must be to keep the grain off the market and Prevent a glut. Will it accom; this purpose if enacted into law? We don't sce how it can. The plan runs counter to human nature. The purpose of the plan won't be accom- Plished unless 2 good majority of the Grain growers in other states as well 4s our own store their grain on the .|farms. But it is human nature to money on his stored grain; for he can do that now. Farmers can store their grain in public warehouses and elevators and borrow money on the being | storage tickets. Nor can it be the purpose to enable the farmer to store his grain more cheaply than at present; for under the proposed plan it will Probabl;’ cost him twice as much as it does at the present time. In determining the cost under the proposed plan he will have to figure interest on the in- vestment in a granary, depreciation in the value of the granary, cost of oil on von peal loss = weight throug! inkage of t Grain, cost of inspection and grading and cost of putting the grain in the Granary and loading it out again. Nor can it be the purpose to enable the farmer to borrow more money or more cheaply. It will Probably be more difficult to borrow money on Grain stored on the farms Cas on grain stored in public elevators. Pub- le elevators are under bonds to the state; the farmers won't be under any such bonds. The holder of a Storage ticket issued by a Public elevator calling for-No. 1 Dark Nor- thern can call for and receive No. 1 pablo nt nap pg re storage on grain a farm will have to take the grain “let George do ii.” Everybody’s bust- hess is nobody's business. Each farmer will depend on the other farmers to do the storing. It is contrary to human nature for a Group of disconnected individuals to present the same front, to proceed in con- certed action in such @ matter. This is @ fatal defect in the proposed plan. . Why do farmers store grain in pub- lic warehouses and elevators? In order that they may borrow money? No. They do it because they haven't Tepm for it on the farm or because they want to save the expense ot binning it at home or because they want to haul it to market when the roads are good or they have the time to haul it. ‘The average farmer uses his granary 4s a storehouse for other things than. grain and very few of them would be willing to have their granaries locked up, that is, sealed, We fail to find any merit in the farm grain storage plan. It doesn't seem practicable. We hope we may |be spared the expense of an appro- priation for it. O. J. LOKKEN, SPOILED A GOOD THING he finds there no matter what the |™9¢! Hicket says.

Demands for farm loans through the state land department are steadily increasing and in many cases pressure is brought to bear by friends of the Spplicant to force through an un- reasonably large loan, Byerly asserted. He urges appraisal boards to show caution in lending assistance making loans which might result in loss to the state. Requests for appraisals will be sent out from the department to county auditors, with requests that they in- form applicants that no ap; are to be made until the weather and snow conditions will permit thorough examination. Byerly has informed county treas- urers that all land lease contri.cts which have not expired and upon which rental is not paid in January lapse and that the land covered by such lease will be offered to the highest bidder in March. At the request of county treasurers, however, payments will be Sccepted by the department until Feb- Tuary 15, he said. | Legislative Calendar BILLS PASSED BY SENATE 8.
