PLENTY OF HAY IN NORTHERN SECTION ~ OF NORTH DAKOTA G. N. D. A. Man Says Surplus There Will Aid Farmers in ‘ Other Areas } } Fargo, N. D., Aug. 15.—Assertion that northern North Dakota has plenty of feed with a surplus in some Places was made here Saturday by B. E. Groom, agricultural expert for, the Greater North Dakota associa- tion after a survey of that area. In general, He says that the north half of North Dakota needs little or no, roughage for the livestock in the ter- ritory. There are some spots where there is @ shortage and this will be shifted around, but in the large area from Granville to the Canadian line and east all along the Great North- ern line there is an unusually large amount of hay in stacks at this time. That area, as he sees it, has expanded its sweet clover acreage very fast in recent years and about one-third of the surplus hay is yellow blossom sweet clover. The cold weather of last winter put plenty of frost in the ground and the heavy snows of win- ter put water in the meadows last spring. The frost held that water until the hay got a good start, and on that account the prairie meadows and shallow sloughs yielded a very fine amount of hay this year. Recalls Haney’s Advice More than 20 years ago John G. Haney of the International Harvester company addressed hundreds of aud- jences of farmers in North Dakota and urged the growing of sweet clover as a part of a sound diversification program. At the outset, Groom says he recalls that farmers often chal- Jenged Haney’s statements and con- tended that sweet clover was a nox- ious weed. However, the speaker's ar- guments were sound and sweet clover acreages have expanded and that crop is today an essential factor in the livestock industry in all of north- ern North Dakota. At that time, he says, Haney dubbed sweet clover “The Sweetheart of the Northwest,” and the International Harvester com- pany published and distributed thou- sands of booklets on the growing and handling of sweet clover to stimulate the livestock industry. At this time Groom states that most of the sweet clover being grown in that area is of the yellow blossom variety. This variety has proved best because it is not so rank and coarse as the white blossom, seems more hardy and has more foliage. A high percentage of this short yellow blos- som sweet clover has been cut with binders, bound in bundles and stacked as oat bundles for feed. When put up in this manner, it is the next best thing to alfalfa and has, to @ very great extent, replaced alfalfa. Hay Best Cash Crop In the counties of Ramsey, Towner, Rolette, Bottineau, Pierce and others to the east, Groom states that hay will be the best cash crop farmers will _have.this year. commonly a hay producing area for market purposes, an effort is being made to find a satisfactory outlet for this surplus feed. This is being done in two ways, Every agency interested has assisted in a program to secure additional livestock for farmers in that area who are in shape to in- crease their herds and flocks which were reduced in 1934. To date ap- proximately 50,000 breeding ewes and lambs have been moved into that area through the efforts of various agen- cies.. Many thousand head of cattle will also be sent into that area. Some of the stock will be returned to the drouth area when their feed condi- tions improve, but the bulk of it 1s being purchased. While that amount of stock is not sufficient to utilize all of the surplus hay, the Greater North Dakota association, Groom states, is working with the bankers, county| % agents and others in that territory in an effort to get the hay baled and shipped to areas where it is needed for fed in southwestern North Day kota. Expect Lowest Rates The movement has been delayed on account of freight rates but aséur- ance is now given that the reduced rates on hay will be made to apply |; from that territory to southwestern North Dakota and that will insure a/ Ps movement of this surplus hay. Groom states also that he has contacted hay balers, and at the request of parties in those counties is sending baling equipment there to get the hay in shape to ship. The prairie and mea- dow hay will be baled, but an effort will be made to handle the sweet clover by having it cut with silage cutters, run through threshing ma- chines or cut with hammermills to put it in shape to handle at the least possible expense. The dairymen in the southwest have expressed a pref- erence for this feed and it is believed that if it can be moved at reasonable prices it will be very satisfactory feed for all concerned. Farmers in that area are willing to sell their hay for $5.00 and $6.00 per ton in the stacks, and now with reduced rates for ship- ment, he says that North Dakota stock can be very largely fed from North Dakota hay.

He pitched bundles, slept in haystaks, talked with farmers and workers and obtained a view of the farm problem which, he admits, was @ little different from that obtained by a’man who spends all of his time with theory. Admitting his interest in many past social movements—he calls them agi- tations—Dr. O'Grady said the biggest problem now facing the nation is that of relief. He feels that no one is sure what to do about it because so many of the factors involved have not been worked out. Favors WPA System The work-relief system, he feels, is better than direct relief because it is more flexible. When people get on workerelief rolls, he said, it often is difficult to get them off. With the Saturday the WPA had assigned tol wpa. 5; government ystem all the \7 byt RoE ae deat farmers, vic-| needs to do is to reduce the number of work projects. The attitude to- ward work relief is fundamentally different than is the case with direct relief, he explained, and work relief will be cheaper in the end. Answering the question of how Prosperity can exist with between nine and ten million unemployed, Dr. O'Grady ponited out that there are no definite figures on unemployment and that they are quite likely to be incorrect as a result of the relief sys- tem. First of all, he said, in the best of times there have been approximately two to two and @ half million un- employed persons. That is a normal situation. In addition there are others who are casual laborers. They work inter- mittently as jobs come up. In nor- mal times they are not regarded as unemployed but under the relief sys- tem they flock to the agencies grant- ing help and hence all are continu- NTINUE co D Overwhelming Vote’ [oa cntitions « tnutal condition or.

O, Steen, regional admin- istrator for biological survey relief labor projects, announced here Sat- Ye A total of $543,060 has been alloted for regional duck water projects where approximately 4,300 relief labor workers will be employed, Steen said. ‘The largést allocation was made to the drouth area of North Dakota where $353,548 will be spent on water- fowl refuges, employing about 2,765 WPA workers. Allocations Announced Other states which received fed- eral funds for game refuges we: South Dakota, $74,934; Montana, $44, 830; Nebraska, $42,830; Wisconsin, $10,700; eastern Wyoming, $7,500 and Michigan, $10,700. The federal biological survey is starting work immediately of water- fowl projects in these states with re- ef labor. Workers will create new Projects and improve already created duck waters in the region, the admin- istrator announced. “Building dams is only one step in biological survey work,” Steen said. “When the dam is built the reguge must be made habitable for ducks.” Steen explained that the survey in addition to building dams constructs trails, plants duck feed, builds ob- servation towers and fences and gen- erally improves the site for a fed- eral game refuge. i 40 Projects in N. D. Besides 40 projects scattered over North Dakota's drouth area, the larg- est being at Dunn Center, the bio- logical survey will work on three South Dakota projects at Waubay, east of Aberdeen; La Creek, on the south border and Crow Lake in east- ern South Dakota, Steen said. Three projects in Montana are at Medicine Lake, Lake Bowdoin, near Malta and at the Bison National range, near Moiese in western Mon- tana. There is one project at Cres- cent Lake, Nebraska and a gmall proj- ect in eastern Wyoming. In Michi- gan and Wisconsin relief labor will be put to work on duck water proj- ects at Seney and Trempleau. re- Steen, who returned from Montana Fri@y where he visited biological nounced he planned to go to South Dakota and Nebraska next week to directors in those states regarding federal game preserves.

The complaint against Miller was signed by Frank A. Vogel, inspector for the board of railroad commission- ers. Vogel charges that he was a pas- senger on a bus driven by Miller, on July 22, and that he rode to Lari- more from Minot, for which he paid fare to the driver. The Liederbach Bus company, which has operated into Minot since the fall of 1935, is a Minnesota cor- poration. According to reports here, the company will contend that its operations in North Dakota have been on an interstate basis. Arraignment of Miller may take Place late today or Monday, it was reported. DROUTH COMMITTEE REVISES ITINERARY Group to Make Hand In- spection During 3,000-Mile Tour Washington, Aug. 15.—(?)—Eight members of the Great Plains drouth committee left early Saturday by train for Amarillo, Texas, where they will start a 3,000 mile first-hand in- spection of drouth areas. The office of Morris L. Cooke, chairman of the committee appoint- ed by the president to suggest long- range national measures for com- batting drouth, announced the intinerary of the tour had been changed. The changes were made, it was said, to avoid main traveled highways and visit localities believed to- be hard-hit by. the arid weather in re- cent years. The revised schedule includes: Aug. 21—Leave Chadron, Neb., for trip through Nebraska and South Da- kota with overnight halt at Pierre, 8. D. Aug. 22—Leave Pierre for trip to Aberdeen, 8. D., with conferences and overnight stay there. Aug. 23—Leave Aberdeen for trip into North Dakota with possible over- night halt at LaMoure, Jamestown or Bismarck, N. D. Aug. 24—Leave for Dickinson, N. D., and trip into Montana with over- night halt at Glendive or possibly Miles City, Mont. Aug. 25—Trip through Montana to Broadus, Mont. Aug. 26—Leave Broadus for trip in- to Wyoming with overnight halt at Gillette, Wyo. Aug. 27—Leave Wyoming for Rapid City, 8. D., and overnight stay at Pierre. ‘The office here said other changes might be made in the itinerary. The | group expect to meet Mr. Roosevelt somewhere in South Dakota at the end of the tour and present its rec- ommendations. Secretary Wallace, recently appoint- ed to the long-range planning group, will accompany the president when he meets the committee.

Sha to Industry nigh ‘The s Chicago, ,Aug. 15.—(7)—Presenting an “indictment” against the New Deal farm program, George N. Peek said Saturday that under it “agricul- ture has definitely lost ground in its fight for equality with industry.” Peek, formerly trade adviser to President Roosevelt but now on the warpath against the administration foreign trade and farm polices, said: “The loss of foreign markets has led to attempts at crop restriction at home while stimulating production abroad. It has reduced the purchas- ing power of our agriculture. It has prolonged the farm crisis and extend- ed the relief rolls.” He said the first count in his “in- dictment” was that New Dealers gave “no adequate consideration to the fact that the laws of nature transcend the laws of men, even New Dealers.” “By controlling the farmers’ indi- vidual initiative,” he said, “they thought they could control his pro- duction; this in the face of the bureau of agricultural economics report of 1927 that 75 per cent of the variation in yield of all growing crops, from year to year, is due to weather and pests, and not to the acreage planted.” Discussing loss of foreign markets, Peek said “responsible administration officials” have “prevented important sales of farm products to foreign na- tions.” “For example,” he said, “in the fall of 1933 at the very time the govern- ment was supporting the butter mar- ket through loans an opportunity was presented to sell a substantial quan- tity of surplus butter to England at competitive world prices.” Hitting the reciprocal trade agree- ment with Canada, he said that in the first five months since it became ef- fective “we increased by 57 per cent our imports of agricultural items on which we had reduced duties. (Ex- cluding spirits).” “But,” he added, “we increased our exports to Canada by only 17 per cent in agricultural items on which Canada had reduced duties.” : U.S. SWEEPS BOTH SWIM TEAM TITLES Japan Fails to Overhaul Men's Squad; Women Eke Out Victory i CHECK TOURNAMENT Committee Heads to Meet Sun- day and Discuss Arrange- ments for Big Event Detailed check of the arrangements for the Western Sectional tourna- ment which will bring the leading Junior American baseball teams here from 16 western states will be made at a meeting of com- mittee chairmen Sunday afternoon in the American Legion clubroom.
