FARMERSURCED
TO SAVESTRAW
FRAZIER WARNS
AGAINST BURNING OF STRAW.
SAYS IT'S NEEDED.

Bismarck, Sept. 8.-Governor Lynn
j. Frazier in a statement to the press
today urges all farmers Of the Red
river valley district to assist their far
|mer brothers of the central and west
|ern counties by baling their straw and
shipping in to the counties where it
will be greatly needed for feed.
Governor Frazier says that not a
single straw stack in the state of
North Dakota should be burned this
year until the farmers of the western
counties have been furnished with
Sufficient feed to winter their stock.
"Owing to shortage Of feed in the
western and central counties of the
state" says Goveror Frazier, 'the
farmers will have to sell at a great
sacrifice many Of their young stock
and in some instances even their
breeding stock unless assistance is gi-
from those localities where hay and
ven from those localities where hay
and straw are plentiful. To sell off the
young and breeding stock would not
!only be hardship to the farmers
themselves, but would be a calamity to
the state and nation as it would take
several years to restock many of the
western ranches.
"In 26 western counties there has
been reportd shortage of hay. In
some of the counties there is not
enough hay TO- carry one-fourth of
the stock thru the winter. In these
some counties there has also been an
almost total crop failure.
+" The farmers of the Red river val
ley district and other localities in the
tate where hay and straw are plenti-
full can serve the state and nation and
at the same time assist their farmer
brethren of the west by baling their
traw and shipping it to points where
it is needed at cost. The railroads
are giving a reduced rate, one-half Of
the actual rate, on straw and hay from
eastern points to western points in
the state and with cooperation of the
farmers where straw is plentiful,
enough feed to carry the stock thru
the winter can be assured at a rea-
sonable price. I call upon every far
mer in the state to conserve his stacks
straw until the need of the western
farmer has been supplied"
Governor Frazier estimates that
straw can be supplied to the farmers
/ of the western counties at approx
,mately $3.50 ton.> The freight un-
der the temporary tariff adopted by
the railroads is $3.50 ton, and the
governor estimates that $1.0O a ton
will cover the cost Of baling and mar
keting.
Farmers who have straw or hay to
sell are asked to report the amount
Immediately to Commissioner Of Agrl-
culture and Labor J. N. Hagan, and
those who need straw or hay are also
asked to make report of the amount
needed to the commissioner of agrl-
culture. In this way, Governor Fra
|zief says, the farmers who have to
/ slsell will be brought in contact with
those who need straw and hay.
