SERVES PEOPLE
DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
AND LABOR CARRIES OUT
t& 49,.
. ... LAWS

The department of Agriculture and
Labor which is in charge of John N.
Hagan, Commissioner of Agriculture
and Labor, has recently issued re-
view OF it's activities and achievements
as well as an explanation of its place
IN the work for the betterment of the
state. This review is summarized 50
that the citizens of North Dakota vii,
familiarize themselves with the service
OF the department and take advantage
of it's facilities.
Much of the success of the Feed and
Seed Bonding Act is due to the way
IN which it was administered by Mr..
Hagan's department. The law was
passed to relieve the situation brought
about by the short crop year of 1917
Many farmers found themselves un-
able to finance their seed requirements
for the spring of 1919 and the bankers
OF the state declared themselves un-
able to cope with, the situation. Gov
ernor Frazier called the special ses-
sion Of January 1919 which saved the
day by passing the Feed and Seed
Bonding Act which went into opera
tion Immediately.
Interest Reduced AZ per cent
Under this law 80 counties, mostly
in the western part of the state were
financed to an extent of nearly $3,-
100000 at an average interest rate of
less than five and one half per cent.
In the spring of 1920 western coun-
ties were again financed to the extent
of 81 100000 for about the same rate
Of interest. Under the financial meth
DDS prevailing before the passage of
this act the interest rate for this class
of loans would not have been less
than ten per cent. The saving to the
farmers of North Dakota was no less
than $135,000 interest on the 1918
crop. To the consumer the fact that
one million acres which would not
otherwise have been put in crop were
cultivated, thanks to this act, is of
considerable Importance.
The work Of Dairy Commissioner
Osterhous is carried on under the aus
pices of the Department of Agricul-
ture and Labor. The phenomenal pro-
gress being made by the dairy indus
try in North Dakota is indicated in
the statistics Of the amount of dairy
products marketed by North Dakota
producers. During the year ending
June 80, 1919 1873 per cent more prod
ucts were marketed than in the pre-
ceding year. This increase is largely
due to favorable legislation enacted by
the Nonpartisan League legislature
and administered by this department.
Breeding circuits have been estab-
lished; an equitable system of cream
testing has been inauguarted; the CO.
operative idea has been, encouraged
and scientific demonstrations of the
value of careful selection of dairy
stock thru milking tests have been
staged by Commissioner Osterhous.
The Nonpartisan, League legislators
have put on the statute books laws
providing for the licensing Of cream
stations, the licensing Of cream buy
ers and for official testing. Under
these laws higher tests for butterfat
have been secured for the dairymen.

INJURED WORKERS

The administration expense Of
Worknen's Compensation Bureau has
been only 8 per cent fer the first year
according to a report recently issued
by the bureau. Some liability compan-
les have incurred expenses as high
as 40 per cent Of the gross receipts

for the second year are now being
computed and it is likely that there
win be a slight decrease.
1863 claims have been filed to date.
Several death claims were allowed
paying to the widow and children OF
the deceased, 35 per cent and 10 per
cent each, respectively Of the de-

The widow will receive 35 per cent
of the weekly wage till death or mar
riage. In case of marriage lump sum
equal to three years compensation is

two or three fingers, a hand, an arm,
etc. Compensation for this class Of in

in many cases. Premium receipts for
the first year amount to $507, ,027.44
