SHORT CUTS IN POWER CUTS

Figures made public based on the
performance of tractors and horses at
the Fargo Farming Demonstration,
show that it costs about $3.50 to plow,
prepare the seed bed and seed an acre
with tractors in North Dakota, and
about S2.4O to do the same work with
horses Fargo prices.
In terms of quarter section, tins
means saving Of nearly $3.50 IN seed
ing down 160 acres.
Add to this direct saving IA money,
any saving in time and labor which
enables q farmer to take care OF a
bigger acreage IN q shorter time with
tractors than with horses, then re-
member that tractor expense stops
when the job is done, but horse main
tenance goes on throughout the year,
and any farmer with sharp wits and
dull pencil can figure out his own
power costs and show profitable m
vestment by converting some OF his
horses into cash for a tractor, go at
ter profits on his farm in q business
like way.
Variations in the price OF fuel and
feed in different parts Of the country J
make very little difference in the net
result, which shows big saving ev-
erywhere in favor Of the tractor.

national exchange. There is no clear
ing house for International exchange.
It fluctuates violently because it is
subjected to all the speculation and
gambling by private concerns without
any single institution powerful enough
to regulate it. Each country has pro-
vided system of banking and cur
rency to furnish credit and regulate
interest for domestic business but all
these systems stop at the ocean front
or boundary line. There is no system
which extends credit to international
commerce. ~
"My idea is that the establishment
of such system by the cooperation
of nations would soon furnish the
necessary credit to carry on business
in a legitimate way and make the
rates Of international exchange le-
gitimate business consideration in
stead Of, as now, mere guess work,
gambling and speculation. Hundreds
of exporters have been ruined during
the last two years because of these
violent fluctuations, and international
commerce has become a dangerous
business"

BURD1CK HELD MEETING

U. 4. Burdick, president Of the
North Dakota Federation Of the U. S.
Grain Growers spoke % q good crowd
at the Fair Grounds Saturday after
noon. Mr.. Burdick is q very able
speaker and has the grain growers
movement at heart from start to fin
ish. The movement is good one and
with united farmer membership, will
within short time put farming on
the profit side of the ledger and put
the grain gamblers where the farmers
are now, financially. Mr.. Burdick also
spoke at Maxbass, where very good
meeting is reported.

HAS ACCEPTED INVITATION TO
ADDRESS MEETINGS DUR.
ING NEXT MONTH

The demand for Governor Lynn ].
Frazier to address farmer and labor
gatherings all over the country is
steadily on the increase and as n.
suit he has had to refuse many such
invitations. ...
He has however, promised to speak
at several meetings in Washington
state about the middle of August, the
first address to be given August 10.
Governor frazier has not been adj
vised yet where he is going to speak
on August 10, but on August IL he
speaks in Yakima and the next day IN
Spokane.
League Sentiment Grows
The farmers and workers of the
west coast are turning to the Nonpart-
isan League as the only practical 80
luton Of the present unbearable IN
dustrial conditions, reports received IN
North Dakota indicate. AS result the
League reports q steady growth in the
northwestern states. Governor Frazier
has long been wanted for series Of
addresses IN Washington, but has not
been able to accept the invitation un-
til the present time.
Farmers and workers of the west
coast country are taking a great deal
of interest in the bond sale now being
conducted by the Industrial commits
sion of North Dakota. They are lend
ing a helping hand by advertising the
bonds out there and not a few have
been purchased by farmers and the
labor unions. Now they want to hear
from the governor himself about the
remarkable fight the Leaguers Of
North Dakota are carrying on.
Big Meetings Soon
Before leaving for the west, Gov
ernor Frazier has been invited to ad-
dress two meetings in this state, one
in Golden Lake township near Finley,
Saturday July 80, and the other at
Glenfield IN Foster county the follow
ing Sunday July 81. The governor is
wanted for several other places in the
state, but is compelled to decline on
account Of the press of official busi-
ness.
John N. Hagan, commissioner Of ag-
riculture and labor, is also billed to
speak at the Golden Lake and Glen
field meetings, as is Miss Ina Brick
ner Of Fargo, state lecturer for the
woman's clubs.

MONTE WOODS AP-
POINTED COMMISSIONER

Monte Woods has been appointed
Commissioner Of Noxious Weeds for
the First Commissioner District OF
Bottineau County. MI. Woods will de-
vote practically his entire time to the
eradication of Sow Thistle, which is
gaining considerable foothold in the
Turtle Mountains. Any support which
the farmers can give Mr.. Woods IN
the location and eradication Of this
pest viii be Of benefit to the farmers
Themselves as well as the County as
= whole.

There is at this time no more vital
matter before North Dakota farmers
than the problem Of freight rates COW
ering. grain, grain products and hay.
If there could be a reduction Of ma
terial amount in the freight rates it
would probably do more than any 9th
er single thing that can be accomplish
ed to bring some measure Of prosper
ity to North Dakota farmers at this
time; it would stimulate traffic for
the railroads and insure them an in
creased income.
High railroad rates is the greatest
obstacle to the restoration Of business
and the scope of the hearing should if
possible be broadened to include all
farm products. ., Ss !.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion have announced hearings for
August 18th at Washington on the re-
duction of freight rates on agricultur-
al products. want to urge on every
business organization in North Dako-
ta the necessity Of being represented
at this hearing. It is vital to the sue
cess Of the farmers hence to the
prosperity Of the state. Let there be
q strong representation from North
Dakota at these hearings.
/ urge also the Importance Of filing
briefs by as many organizations -
possible for I am certain if well pre-
pared and the facts properly present
ed it would have a good effect. l sug-
gest nothing be left undone to have
North Dakota well represented thru
bankers associations implement and
hardware dealers associations, farm
machinery organizations and above all
the North Dakota Farm Bureau, State
Department of Agriculture, Railroad
Commission, Extension Department as
well as by individual farmers.
Remember the hearing is set for
August 18th at Washington E. +.

should b controlled are:

2. They may be scattered miles ~
