INCREASE ON FARMS
: DISCUSSED RESERVE BOARD

A supplement to the 18th report of
the Federal Reserve Agent at Mime
apois, on the subject of farm ten
ancy, says:
There has been a substantial in
crease in the number of farms in the
four important states of this district
during the last ten years, but unfor-
tunately the number Of tenants has
shown much greater proportionatc
increase during the same period. Ac-
cording to figures recently published
by the Federal Bureau of the Census
for the states of Minnesota, North
Dakota, South Dakota, and Montana,
there were 3S9,500 farms in 1920, or
an increase of more than 16 per cent
over 1910. The number of farms in
Montana doubled in the ten-year per-
iod while Minnesota had IA per cent
increase, North Dakota a 4 per cent
increase, and South Dakota a decrease
of 8 per cent. In each of the four
states there has been decrease in
the percentage of farms operated by
their owners; and for the total of the
four. states the percentage declined
from 1917 to 1873 per cent. The num-
bcr of farms operated by managers
is about one per cent in each state
and the proportion of farms operated
by tenants, has risen from 1876 in
1910 to ISL per cent of the total in
1920. In other words, the proportion
of farms operated by tenants has in
creased % per cent from 1910 to 1920
This increase is largest in North Da-
kota (79 per cent? and smallest in
Minnesota (18 per cent?.
The number of new farms added
during the ten-year period totaled
$4,000, whereas the increase in farms
operated by their owners was 81 900
and the increase in farms operated by
tenants was $4,000. This is merely
another way of stating that there has
been significant increase in tenancy
in these four states.
From recent investigation made
by this bank, it appears that the great
ma jority of rented farms are rented
on a grain-share basis. In North Da-
kota 94 per cent of the rented farms
are on this basis; in Montana, 88 per
cent; in South Dakota, IS per cent;
and in Minnesota, II per cent. The
farmer who has been renting on a cash
basis has experienced a reduction Of
rents between 1920 and 1921 in Minne-

AIR CHIEF SAYS
WARSHIP RULES
Warns Against Accepting Air
plane as Supreme on Sea
BY Norris Quinn

Washington, Aug. 4.-"lf you tied
Jack Dempsey's hands behind him
you could knock HIM out. But thai
! wouldn't make you a heavyweight
champion"
! That's Captain William A. Moi
fett's slant von the recent airplane'Vs'
battleship bombing experiments in
which several former German vessels
were sent to the bottom under a rain
of aerial bombs.
iMoffett has Just been named CHIEF
of the aeronautical division OF the
United States navy and will be pro-
NOTED to rear admiral. He is a
recognized aviation authority ana
was an eyewitness Df the bombing
test. He maintains:
THAT the battleship or capltai
shin still is the determining factor
in sea battles.
THAT the airplane and submarine
in their present stage OF development
are only aids to sea warfare.
THAT land arplanes are effective
in attacking battleshiLs within yv
miles of the coast. ,@
that mOtnef SHIPS Cdiiy mo
planes ready for flight will be big
factor in future navai battles.
"The sinking of the Ostfriesland
"a former German vcsseD by 1000 and
1000 pound bombs 60 mics from lana
was performance that reelected
great credit on the army air SERVICE
Captain Mpffett said.
"'rhe successful carrying out OF
this operation showed thorough pre-
parati6n, energy and high morale.
AirpIanes' Limit
we must be careful, however, not
to make false deductions. Lana
planes can operate in the air only
from four to four and one-nalf hours,
so that their radius of action is con-
paratively small.
This test emphasizes most strong
ly the need of airplane carriers to
accompany the fleet, so that this COM
paratively new and powerful weapon
can extend it's power far to sea.
with the fleet, the airplane can
do it's part in gaining and holding
control of the seattle factor that
has settled all past wars and will
settle all future ones.
But the batteships at sea, like,
the infantry on land, determine the
final results. Aviation is an Auxiliary
like the submarine.

WEATHER GOOD
IN NORTHWEST
FOR HARVEST
Cutting of Wheat is Completed
in Many Parts of the
Northwest

The weekly crop report of Van
Dusen-HarringtOn company, grain
commission merchants, Of Mime
apolis, dated Aug. 3, says: @ @
The weather has been favorable the
past week for harvest in the North.
west. The cutting OF wheat and dur.
um has been completed except in the
northern districts, where it will not
be finished for two weeks or more.
Recent rains have helped the late
wheat. especially in Montana and
Northwestern North Dakota. While
the entire territory is very spotted
there will be some good yields OF
wheat in places 1t is impossible to
get an accurate estimate OF averages
at the present time, owing to the
great variation of the crops. The
general run Of wheat will be light
but the quality should be good.
Threshing is progressing through
out the southern half of the territory
and our reports indicate that returns
are a little better than expected.
Black rust has been quite general In
most of the fields Of late wheat in
North Dakota. It developed so slow
ly that we believe only medium
amount of damage has been caused
by it. We find that much OF the sup
posed damage from rust, is really due
to blight and heat.
AS reported in our previous letters.
the crops of barley and oats are poor.
They were badly affected by heat and
are of light weight. We have had a
few reports of good yields ranging
from 40 % so bushels Of oats to the
acre. These, however, are the ex-
cepLlOn.
The corn crop is developing very
favorably. Recent rains have nelpet
it and the ears are filling exceptional
" we'll. If this crop is not damaged
by early frosts it will probably be
the largest ever raised in the North
west. The favorable conditions ex-
tend into parts Of North Dakota
where corn is not usually successful,
and some of the northern districts
that have never shipped out corn be-
fore, may do it this year.
Our late reports on flax are not
very favorable. There are few
places where it is fair, but where
sown on old ground the fields are ex-
tremely weedy or much Of it has
wilted. Several Of our representa-
tives who have covered North Dakota
recently were very much disappoint-
ed at the outlook for the flax crop.

Native Life Society
Issues Bulletin

The first bulletin of the Society of
the Friends Of Our Native Wild Life
has been published by the society.
This pamphlet is to be published BIZ
monthly and is to interest the people
in native wild life.
A short history of the society tells
of the desire to bring people inter-
ested in the things cut of doors to-
gether for the exchange of ideas and
for the aggregation of strength. The
field of interest and study was in
tended to include both plant and an
imal life native to this country. The
name was chosen at the suggestion OF
DR.. Gilmore. The aim of the society
is to work for the intelligent conserva-
tion and protection of all native wild
life, of birds, of animals, of trees and
flowers, and of all scenic beauty
spots.
A collection of photographs and of
: lantern slides is being made bearing
on the subjects of interest to the So
ciety. Also collection of specimens
of native mammals and of native birds,
is being made for study by the mem
bers. A collection of the native flora
is also being made. An alcove is main
tanned in the Bismarck city library
where may be found nature books and
magazines upon the native floral and
faunal life. The society offers its ben
efits and privileges to all persons who
may be interested in its purpose.
whether they be members or not, but
earnestly invites the membership OF

sofa, South Dakota and Montana, but
in North Dakota the average rent paid
increased this year over last. In the
states where the average cash rent
has decreased, the rentals charged are
still about 40 per cent higher than in
1914. The experience Of the farmers
with declining values of farm products
during the past year has caused a
large proportion of farmers who had
been renting on a cash basis to
change, when permitted, to grain
share basis, but few farmers have
grown discouraged to the extent that
they have given up their farms en-
tirely. 49,.
