Hyde says, ——— ____. +f At the Movies i keeping | staff include Mary Bosch, To this end Secretary Hyde of the department of agriculture and the association of land grant colleges ana universities have called the first land utilization conference in history session here Nov. 19 to 21. Never before has the national gov- ernment moved so broadly to regu- late the use of public and private domain. From colonial days it has been assumed that all land was used to produce food and fiber and| that the sooner it could be put to that purpose the better. The conference is a frank refuta- tion of that theory, an open admis ston that too much land is being cul- tivated and a signal that farms not paying the cost of production must be retired if relief for agriculture is to be effective. The conference's rec- ommendations are expected to form the base of state and national legis- lation to remedy overproduction maladjustment of: crops, tax delin- quency and farm abandonment. Secretary Hyde says the way has been pointed by certain of the New England and Great Lakes states. Secretary Hyde says recent up- heavals in the supply and demand ot farm products throw new light on the need for land utilization. On the demand side, displacement of work animals by power-driven machinery is removing the need for millions of tons of corn, oats and hay. Changes in diet are lessening the de- mand for some foods and increasing the demand for others. On the supply side, technical changes are bringing great semi-arid tracts into cultivation, not only in| the United States but also in Russia, Canada, Australia and Argentina. bor-saving machinery is promoting the cultivation of low-yield areas. Production is outrunning consump- tion in much of the world. ‘The fundamental need, Secretary’ is for an inventory of land resources, an estimate of food and fiber needs and an attempt to match output against requirements. DEVILS LAKE SEEKS POST-SEASON GAME Coach Douglas Smith Chal- lenges Any High School Squad in State Devils Lake, N. D., Nov. 14—(P)— Coach Doug Smith of the Devils Lake high school football team Saturday issued a challenge to any team in the state to a post-season game here the first part of next week. In communication with Carrington, undefeated this season, officials there refused to play the Lakers. ‘The Lakers have suffered only one defeat, have been tied once, and won seven games, including victoies ovcr Grafton, Jamestown, East Grand Forks, Fargo, and a tie with Grand Forks. Their only defeat was a 19 to ‘T loss to Minot. MANDAN WILLING TO PLAY EXTRA GAME . Mandan, N. D., Nov. 14.—(P)— Coach Leonard McMahon in answer to a challenge issued by Coach Doug Smith of the Devils Lake school Sat- urday said he and members of his’ team are willing to play the Lakers some time next week. Coach McMahon said he assumed ithe proceeds from the game would go to charity and added that Mandan’s acceptance would be dependent upon the approval of the Mandan board of education. McMahon had not com- municated with the Devils Lake coach and said he would await word from] Smith. Mandan school authorities are of the opinion that the Sioux Land con- ference system of scoring does not ne the best team out on top, and Mandan fans believe that although the Braves ended up in eighth place in the conference, the team compares favorably with the leaders and would like to see the team play the Lakers to prove it.
