oe ® 6 THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1935 Farm Is Storm Cellar Fhousands Return to Soil When | trol Hopes of Urban Prosper- ity Fade Away Washington—(?)—The road back to the farm is being traveled by thou- sands seeking an economic storm cellar—no matter if often a shaky ©ne—until the depression blows over. i: Figures compiled by the bureau of i the census indicate an increase of F about 10 per cent in the number of farms now compared with 1930 and while the census is far from com- Pleted the trend is expected official- ly to remain relatively unchanged. For instance, returns for 903 coun- ties of 3,071 in the country, have shown a net increase of 135,225 farms—1,577,191 against 1,441,966 five years ago. Mostly In South This land movement, says an agri- culture department official, is large- ly due to the failure of farm sons and daughters, and in some instances the oldsters themselves, to find em- ployment in the cities followed by To City-Driven Folks jin general caused by production con- measures retiring acreage. Continued Migration Due The problem of finding suitable lands for industrial refugees he de- scribes as serious, in that more than {normal conditions, wouldn’t have been on farms now are “backed up” on them. Too, he adds, another wor- risome factor is that at least 200,- 000 new farms are needed annually under current conditions, whereas jonly around 100,000 are being re- jleased or retired. Much breaking sulting. Meanwhile, a long-time forecast made by President Roosevelt's na- tional resources board indicates a Isharp progressive increase in the number of people on farms from now on until 1960, even assuming little or no net migration from the city to the country for the future. The toard, on that hypothesis, has fig- ‘ured that the farm population, put at 30,000,000 in 1930, has jumped now to around 33,000,000, will be 35,000,000 by 1940, 40,000,000 by 1950, and 45,000,000 by 1960. 2,000,000 young people who, under Visiting Nurses Aid Housekeeping Men Housekeeping husbands, families who have never seen a doctor or been by FERA nurses in Sioux county where an unique rural nursing serv- ice has just finished its fourth month of work. “It is not uncommon for us to visit families and find the father taking care of the house and several smaii children in addition to caring for his wife and a newborn baby,” sald Miss Lila Cannon, county supervis- ing FERA nurse. “I remember visit- ling one home where the father was |so anxious to do the right thing that \he not only gave the new baby boiled water, but allowed his’ wife nothing |up and scaling down of tracts is re-| eice Lack of medical attention in the past is partially explained by the fact that the county has only one doctor jand no dentist. For the Indians who to a dentist are visited almost daily| form about one-third of the popu- lation, there is a doctor and hospital on the Fort Yates reservation,” Miss Cannon pointed out. 12 Counties Getting FERA Sick Relief Aid In 12 counties where the relief load averaged over 38 per cent of the total population in February, slightly over 11 per cent of Uncle Sam's relief money went for medical care, re- ports Daniel G. Howell, FERA medi- cal director. “Morton county led the list in ill- hess among relief clients, for over 30 per cent of the FERA funds went for medical care,” reported Howell. “Logan county made the best record for good health with only 4.67 per cent of its relief load receiving medi- cal care. Patients averaged 316 to @ county at a per county cost of $1,956.14, while medical service spent $23,473.73 to care for sick patients in 12 counties.” Phone 1208 AL’S MEATS - FRUITS - VEGETABLES 423 Third St. an enforced return to the old home place. The increase in farms, he adds, is mostly in the southern Appalachian region—in parts of Kentucky, Ten- nessee, the Carolinas, Virginia—and in other areas of small farms near industrial sections. While figures ‘by states are not available, decreases, hhe says, are more or less negligible @nd have little sectional significance outside part of the cotton belt. Even there the decreases are nominal— Editor's note:—Incomplete data compiled in the regional census office here show that the same trend toward the land has pre- vailed in most counties of the Missouri Slope area.
