THRESHfRMEN WILL
MEET JULY q
Several Hundred From County Will
Receive Instructions From State
Food Administration and Set
Price for Threshing.

John Underdahl, secretary of the
Ward County Threshermen's Associa-
ton, has called meeting of the men,
bers to assemble at the Woodman hall
in Minot, Saturday afternoon, July q,
at 2:30 o'clock.
Important business will be taken up
and several hundred will no doubt at
tend.
The price for threshing will be
agreed upon at that time and the mat
ter of wages will be considered. The
threshermen do not agree as to the
price which should be charged for
threshing, some feeling that the price
should be as high as 20 cents BUSH
ell for wheat, while others set the
mark good deal lower. This will all
be settled at this meeting.
The meeting will be addressed by
County Food Administrator A. B. Dill,
who will have information as to how
much sugar, flour and other supplies
may be used for the threshing crews.
Mr.. Dill is also securing information
from State Food Administrator Ladd
regarding the repair and adjustment
of theshing machines, in order to save
all the food possible, and eliminate
waste by threshing much Of the grain
into the straw. The regulations are
not particularly strict and are within
reason.
Reports have been circulated that
the government has set the price fol
threshing grain as well as the price
to pay hands. This is not true. All
will be explained.

practically all have complied with the
rigid requirements emitting them to

was framed to conform to similar acts
enacted in Oklahoma and other pro-

states along this line of financial leg

pitfalls into which many states have
fallen. The provisions of the Act are
