EXPLAINS FORM
FOR APPLYING
FOR SEED LOAN
Blanks and Other Forms Re
ceived by County Agent
D. B. Morris.
c. A. Warburton Gives Out
Valuable Information
Regarding Loans.

In answer to numerous inquiries
regarding the possibility of obtaining
loans from the department of agri-
culture for the purchase of seed grain
in eastern North Dakota counties, c.
w. Warburton, in charge of h field
office for the distribution of the 3d.
100000 seed loan fund, informed
County Agent D. B. Morris and all
other county agents today, that no
applications will be considered from
counties lying east of Rolette. Pierce,
Sheridan, Kidder and Emmons, ex-
cept that the western portions of Ben
son and Wells counties will be o n
sidered as lying within the drouth
district. This decision is based on
the fact that this fund was voted by
congress strictly for the relief of
those who lost their 1920 crops be-
cause of drouth and who cannot fin
ance their 1921 seeding in any other
way. Crops in 1920 and previous
a were better in eastern North
Dakota than in the section west OF
the line indicated, and because OF
good yields prior to 1920 and the fact
that farmers generally are better es-
tablished in the eastern portion OF the
state, it is believed that needy indi-
viduals or communities there that had
a short crop in 1920 can be financed
locally. This will leave the $4,000
900 fund available for the more ur-
gent needs of western North Dakota
and Montana farmers who have ex-
perienced a series of disastrous crop
failures each year since 1910 or 1917,
If farmers west of the line indicated
do not require all of the funds avail
able consideration nay be given later
to exceptionally needy communities
lying east of this line.
Application blanks and other forms
in connection with seed loans from
the department of agriculture are be.

possible home care and family life
for children who otherwise might be
deprived Of a home and mother care.
The expenditure of this money, &C
cording to w. w. Hodson, director of
the children's bureau OF the state
board Of control, is q recognition. of
the partnership that exists between
the county and the mothers of depend
ent children in the rearing of good
citizens. 1t is q partnership in which
the county supplies the capital fund
by investing its money In the family
and the mother is thus enabled to re-
main with her children and work in
their interests.
At the present time there is a bill
in the legislature to increase the
monthly payments to mothers for the
care of children. This bill has the en-
dorsement of the League of Women
Voters and the State Federation of
Women's clubs.
There had been some opposition to
increasing the allowance by the men,
bers Of the legislature from the rural
districts. Statistics were gathered to
show how the $~533,103.32 given to
mothers had been distributed. OF the
total, payments in Hennepin county
were $~90,228.03; in Ramsey county
$1O4,373, and in st. Louis county $780,
836.28.
These three large counties, accord
ing to the 1910 census, had "a per cent
