Program for Big Grain
Growers Meet Is Out


the Tri-State Grain Growers assocla-
ton convention, to be held here Jan.
10 to Il, has been completed by Presl'
dent John H. Worst.
A feature of this program is that
| while there are many notable speak
ers from all over the country, the
greater number of those who will ad-
! dress the convention are farmers or
farm workers in the three states in
terested in the meeting-Minnesota,
South Dakota and North Dakota.
President Worst strengthened this
feature of the program this year be-
cause he believes that actual farmers
or experimenters of the Northwest are
more competent to deal with the prob
lens Of the locality.
While the grain growers convention
is in session there Will be other at
fractions here of interest to farmers.
The annual North Dakota pure seed
growers show and contest will be held
and the North Dakota corn show will
be presented. Both will be held in the
new auditorium, where the convention
is to meet. The Gate City automobile
show also will be held at the same
time in a building near the audi
forum.
