NEW HOMES FOR OLD Editor Tribune: It would seem as though every ef- fort made by the government so far {s to keep the farmer on the farm which he is on at the present time. Millions of dollars are being loaned for this very purpose, and the result is that a lot of farmers can never hope to pay out, no matter how fav- orable the terms may be, for the simple reason that meny farms in North Dakota, as well as many other »}states, are practically worthless when it comes to raising crops, even in the best of years. Right here in our county, we have | the league has volunteered to inspect ithe home places of its 20,000 mem- |bers for rust-spreading common bar- | berry bushes. for the farmer, if it is a worthless worn-out proposition, the slogan should be: “New homes for old.” Rather a clean cut of the surgeon’s knife than a prolonged agony. True it is the old home holds many ties On our heartstrings, but when we look back on the past and see how dad jand mother had to toil day in and day out, when wo remember the bit- ter heartbreaking struggle to make ends meet from produce raised on sandy, alkali and rocky areas, and then, when we look over at the fellow who started in the same time dad did, but whose farm lands were fer- tile, and who, today is able to enjoy the best life has to offer, while our Parents have to depend on others for charity, the picture of the old home looks a whole lot different. So we believe now is the time to begin to do something to get the farmer off the worthless farm and on to a farm Where he can make enough to meet his obligations. We are hearing a lot about the Frazier farm bill these days. Some seem to think that because the gov- ernment is loaning money to farmers and thus changing creditors, it is enough.

No doubt many of them will be approved. The result will be that soon the government will }°!4- own this worthless land—at a good Price and the discouraged and bank- Tupt farm family will be worse off than ever. Every day we see in the papers how large sums are being loaned by the government to farmers, and we can- not help asking ourselves: “How soon will much of this land revert to the government, and be off the tax list?” No matter how capable and good a farmer may be, ao matter how indus- trious and economical his family, if he has poor and worthless soil to work with he cannot succeed. Now, there are millions of acres of good farm lands owned by the state. schools and private owners anxious to sell. Instead of continuing loaning on worthless farm land, why is not the farm family on such places en- couraged to buy one of the good farms and help given them to do so? ‘Where a farmer has a small equity in a worthless farm, some arrange- ment could be made for continuing It might easily be done by the government agreeing to take the poor land in on some of its proposed ‘abandoned acreage problems.’ Then instead of being a liability, as so many are, the farm family would be 9 decided asset to the community. The government is making extensive soll surveys on each farm on which @ government loan application has been filed. Whenever it finds the land unsuitable for crop production, no money should be loaned on this farm if it means the continuation of and poorer crops and the final destitution of ‘the producer.
