The order said “a prolonged period of severe drought exists generally throughout the United States, and that immediate measures of relief. are necessary in many sections to avoid loss of livestock and to prevent general suffering.” It was added the schedules were in- tended to serve in the public emer- gency described. Among the first railroads to ask authority to reduce rates was the Ili- nois central which telegraphed today @ petition for immediate authority to make a rate of 174 cents per hundred | pounds on range cattle shipments ae Reeves, Tenn., to Baton Rouge, This meant a temporary cut of 50 Per cent in the usual charges and would facilitate a movement from the west to the south where ample cattle feed is available. Call Governor's Meet President Hoover's organizing tal- ents. were concentrated today on the task of welding together an effective campaign for relieving the suffering of the drought country. As a first step the chief executive has called on the governors of the most seriously affected states to meet with him here next Thursday ‘to de- termine a method of bringing into Play all available state and county agencies for relief withthe coopera- tion of various federal branches, and the Red Cross. Meanwhile, at his Virginia fishing {camp Mr. Hoover was studying care- fully the field reports compiled by the department of agriculture, defining the ascertained damage on maps of the stricken area. Million Families Affected The president said preliminary re- ports indicated approximately 1,000,- 000 farm families were affected, to- gether with livestock amounting to 12 per cent of the total annual popu- lation of the country. In a lengthy statement surveying the situation Mr. Hoover said the situation was one to cause a great deal of concern. “But it must be borne in mind,” he added, “that the drought has mainly affected animal feed, the bulk of the direct human food production of the country being abundantly on hand. “Nevertheless, there will be a great deal of privation among families in the drought areas due to the loss of income and the financial difficulties - |imposed upon them to carry their ani- mals over the winter. “The American people will proudly take care of the necessities of their {countrymen in time of stress or dif- ficulty. Our first duty is to assuie our suffering countrymen that this will be done, that their courage and *| spirit shall be maintained, and our second duty is to assure an effective organization for its consummation.” Drought Is Widespread At the same time the chief executive asked Acting Chairman Bicknell of the Red Cross to have his organization prepare to relieve any human suffer- ing. On the basis of the agriculture de- partment survey of conditions as of August 1, the president said the most acute shortage of animal feed crops was in southeastern Missouri, north- ern Arkansas, southern Illinois, south- ern_tndiana, Southern Ohio, Ken- tucky, northern West Virginia, and northern Virginia, with smaller areas in Montana, Kansas, Iowa and Ne- braska. However, a reduction of feed crops in the other states also was noted and the president said gover- nors of one or two other states may be asked later to attend. “In any event,” he said, “in the most acute areas we should now lay the foundation for effective local and state organization, the object of which 4s to prevent suffering amongst farm tubaiiee deprived of support, and to prevent the sacrifice of livestock nore than is necessary.” More detailed information 2 con- ditions in the drought areas is ex- pected to arrive from agents +f the department of agriculture in cvime for study Thursday. The livestock af- fected was placed at 2,250,000 t:rses and mules, 6,000,000 cattle and 12,000,- 000 hogs and sheep. At the conference with the twelve governors will be officials and ex- perts of the agriculturé department, the farm board and other federal agencies. Canning Crops Saved The report of Secretary Hyde to the president emphasized there was no serious problem of human food suppiy at this time, in view of the ample wheat crop, good potato prospect in the commercial sections of the north- ern states and a fair rice crop. Bean acreage, he pointed out, is mostly out- vegetables from southern states will not be planted for some time. Canning crops, tomatoes, peas and beans were also excluded largeiy from the drought damage.

Discussing the feed situation, Hyde said: “For the country as a whole, pros-. pective feed supply at this date con- sidered by itself does not appar to be alarming but it is critical in cer- tain areas.” A serious aspect, he said, was to ve noted in shortage of pasiurage and |consumption of winter fe:d during | | li | the summer months. This situation however, was not considered critical in the important livestock areas so far.

Grains, Grass Vegetables This exhibit, as in the three former trips, is the year’s production and shows all grains, both in the straw and seed. Grain in the straw shows several varicties, barley, oats, flax, rye. All tame grasses are there, as millet, alfalfa, sweet clover and other varie- ties, fifteen in number. Grain seed, including buckwheat, beans, corn and other varieties, are shown in glass fish bowls, of which there are 25. grain, artistically arranged and tagged with card stating the particu- lar kind. The vegetble exhibit is not as com- plete as it will be later, nevertheless it shows very fine samples for this time of year of beets, carrots, cabbage tomatoes, potatoes, and kohlrabi or cabbage-turnip. Placed in glass jars and labeled, of this year’s production, are three varieties of gooseberries, plums, including oka plum, compass cherries, two varieties of sand cher- ries, chokecherries, and cultivated va- rieties of currants.

In this latter statement it shows the rapid increase in this pro- duction from 1920 to 1929. The soil of the state, both surface and sub, is shown in boxés. Gains Greater Attention ‘The straw grain exhibit is placed on purple sateen cloth which is tacked on 30 feet of compass board and cov- ers two sides of the tent in which the exhibit is shown. The other side of the tent is the industrial exhibit on 18 feet of long boards covered with cloth. Stretched across the outside front of the tent is a banner of equal length on which is painted in large letters, “Agricultural and Industrial Exhibit from North Dakota—Walk In.” Each year of this journcy into Min- nesote, Iowa and Illinois snows an increase in number of visitors, 37,000 people having visited the tent during the eight weeks of the itinerary in Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois last year. Gas Lines Rapidly Nearing This City; To Be Here Sept. 1 (Continued from Page 1) 500 hands, M. £. Gillihan, one of the Hope staff superintendents, is in charge of the operations marking the laying of the final 25 miles of line. Some of the towns on the Bismarck line already are using the gas. Among those hooked up are Caryle, Golva, Sentinel Butte, Wibaux, Belfield, Dickinson, Gladstone, Taylor and Richardton. Glen Ullin, Hebron and New Salem will be hooked up in two weeks and will be using the supply. On the Williston line which is com- pleted and in operation, Sidney, Fair- view and Williston are the main towns burning the natural fuel. The Wyoming and Shelby lines will be able to furnish gas to the consuming points by the end of September, said Mr. Moore. Ccnsumers Should Hurry Pipes In The need is urgent here, said both Engineer Moore and Superintendent Becraft, that consumers make their plans and arrangements now for serv- ice. In Miles City there was some de- lay in putting in connections in 1927. with the result that when a cold snap came along there was a stampede to get connections in and the company was swamped ‘by the sudden calmor for service. If these connections are in and the company ready for distri- bution, service can be given at the vivh point of efficiency from the out- set. The gas will come through the hun- dreds of miles of mains under a pres- sure of 200 pounds. This will be re- duced to 50 pounds through the street mains and to five ounces in the house service pipes. Pressure reducing sta- tions will be constructed for this pur- The company invites residents of the city to drive out to the scene of operations and see the camp and the actual laying and welding of the pipe.
