Mr. Gould said that throat cultures had been taken of approximately 2,000 Mandan children but all tests were “negative,” according to the report of the state health department to him today. The children also were tested for diphtheria and infantile paralysis at the same time. Meanwhile, Mandan’s two meningi- tis victims remained “unchanged” this morning, according to their at- tendants at the Mandan Deaconess hospital. They are Ernest Fleck and Kathleen Sullivan. Children in St. Joseph’s parochial school and the state training school also were given rigid physical exam- inations as well as children in St. Anthony, Morton county community { south of Mandan.

North Dakota is quite as important as continued progress on the part of the owner operator, James 8S. Milloy, ta association, told the annual land owners conference here today. The meeting is the third annual one of executives of insurance companies, banks and loaning agencies control- ing approximately 3,000,000 acres of North Dakota farm lands. It is a} Part of the association's general ef- fort to speed up better farming methods on rented land and thereby increase the aggregate income from | agricultural production in the state. “Tenant operated land in North Dakota falls into two general classes,” Mr. Milloy said. “There is the land | owned by large institutions, some of ; them owning in excess of 100,000, acres. Then there is the land owned | by local banks, scattered investors | and estates. This conference is held by the Greater North Dakota assogia- tion each year for tHe benefit of this | first group and we believe there are j definite signs of this type of owner adopted an operation policy that is helping bring this class of land into | step with the progress being shown | by owner operators. Our association | plans a series of regional short | courses in January and February for the benefit of men in charge of farm land for local banks, estates and ! scattered investors.

O'Shea of Billings, Mont., secretary-treasurer of the union, said that farmers around Billings have been selling No. 1 hard wheat at 41 cents a bushel during the past few days. This, he said, was one cent less than the protective tariff of 41 cents, designed to keep American prices above world prices. Shows Tariff Failure “This fact alone,” O'Shea said, “demonstrates the ineffectiveness of the protective tariff.” A tax of $2 a barrel on flour to take the place of the equalization fee of the proposed McNary-Haugen farm |Yelief legislation was suggested in an address by Gov. Theodore Christian- son of Minnesota yesterday. In proposals for the solution of the farm problem, Governor Christianson said, some means for segregation of the surplus crops must be attained, and he expressed the fear that the equalization fee would permit manipu- lation by speculators. The governor said this segregation could be accomplished through the levy of the $2 tax on flour milled for domestic consumption. The flour tax would go into a central fund which would pay the cost of collection and other expenses. Wheat not needed for domestic use would go into export channels. Would Pro-Rate Collections At the end of each year, Governor Christianson said, the money remain- of surplus crops is necessary, and farmers should strive for it. | “Third—That free markets be cre- | ated through the cooperative market- ing agenci: Fourth—There must be an adjust- jment of the taxes paid by industry and agriculture | Theatre “SHO! SHO!... WE’S ON THE SCREEN—” ie. Al Elimination of Grade Crossing Is Left to Mutual Agreement Present conditions do not warrant crossing protection at the Soo Line crossing in Schiller township, Fun- ston, according to an order issued by the state railroad commission. Residents of the township, in Mc- Henry county, petitioned the com- mission to order elimination of the grade, on the ground that the cross- ing is dangerous. ‘The commission’s order stated that if the railroad and township desire to cooperate on sharing expense involved in eliminating the crossing no objec- tion will be made by the state board. “Inasmuch as an offer was made by the attorney for the protestant (Soo Line),” the order said, “that if the township is willing to pay 50 per cent of the cost there is no need of going further, and we will pay the other 50 per cent, should the parties | to the proceeding come to an agree- ment in the division of expenses nec- essary to elimination of the crossing, i two. The significance of this situa- tion on the unearned increment or speculative value in farm lands is, therefore, seen to be reversed and this factor that has been included in cur selling values of land may be per- | manently removed. If this is true, | future values of the land in the Mis- ; Sissippi Valley will be based more largely on productive income as the important factor leading to net re- turns, Yield Is Important “Elements that determine the pro- | ductive value of land are perhaps first, the yield per acre of the re- spective crops; second, the propor- tions of the land that are utilized for | various types of production with par- ticular reference to those of high yield; third, tls: economy of produc- tion; fourth. distance from market; , and fifth, site value of individual farms. “The census of agriculture of 1925) gave considerable data that makes possible the determination of an in- dex of productive value based upon | Yield per acre and the proportion of | the lands devoted to various uses. | These data are supplemented by the U. 8. Department of Agriculture sometime before we return to a status | quo in some parts of the state. This demands a sane approach to the! straight grain farming. We hope} these conferences permit land owners to exchange views and incorporate in their respective programs the suc-/ cessful experiences of other owners. | Definite progress was reported at this conference a year ago and we expect | more progress to be related here to- | day. The owner operator in North | Dakota is leading the way by picking i his competitor. He is competing, by | his method of farming, with land | worth four times our North Dakota land instead of producing wheat and | trying to compete with $5 and $10, land. It is up to the owners of ten- ant operated land to help the tenant! adopt a similar course and we are | glad to note that many of them are doing so.” Values Are Discussed Rex E.
