FAMISHED FARMERS PETITION MORTGAGE HOLDERS FOR RELIEF Minnesota Men Claim Life or Disaster Depenc> on Ac- tion of Note Owners ey E. B. McCutcheon Hollandale, Minn., March 2.—(?)}— Citing deplorable conditions among farmers of the Hollandale district, a petition signed by 73 farmers of the Hollandale district has been for- warded to mortgage holders and Judge Norman E. Peterson of Albert Lea in an appeal for financial aid. Upon receipt of the petition, Judge Peterson conferred today with Free- born county Red Cross officials. They were to visit Hollandale later in the day to investigate reports that school children were not attending school for lack of food and clothing. The petition is addressed to Ar- thur_R. Wells, receiver of the Albert Lea Farms company, the Minnesota Loan & Tust company, Minneapolis, and Judge Peterson. R. M. Madison, Hollandale farmer. chairman of the committee which drew up the petition, declared “the petition means life or disaster to us farmers at Hollandale.” “Some families have only potatoes and salt to live on,” Madison said. “If this petition is ignored or set aside, no telling what may happen. If this land was at a price, possibly every farmer here could pay out and make ‘a go of it.’ Under the present condi- tion, it is impossible.” The petition asks that contract holders cancel past due payments of principle and interest “and start with each of us with the amount due up- on our said several contracts of pur- chase January 1, 1929.” They will be unable to meet payments on con- tracts the farmers set forth. Hollandale is in the center of a tract of reclaimed land in northeast- ern part of Freeborn county, de- veloped by the Payne Investment company. Excessive rains of the past season ruined many hundreds of acres of crops. This winter the territory has been virtually isolated because of the snow-blocked roads. A California inventor's land roller that is covered with extensions shaped like the feet of sheep is claimed to pack the soil more firmly than a roller with a smooth surface. According to a survey by the United States public health service the smoke that hangs over an aver- age American city cuts off as much as 42 per cent of early morning sun- light and 18 per cent at noon. Establishment of through passenger train service from Paris to Tokyo through northern Europe and Siberia has reduced the time between the cities to about two weeks. A New York inventor's screwless hinge is attached by drilling slanting holes in doors and their frames and inserting metal rods, doors being readily removed by lifting.
