President Harding Opens Farm
Conference With Address
Outlining Situation.
FINANCING PLAN URGED
More Working Capital for Farmers
Proposed-co-operative Marketing
Extension and Checking Violent
Price Changes Urged.

Washington = President Harding,
opening the national agricultural con-
ference here, outlined comprehen-
sive program for meeting the grim
reality of the present crisis in agricul-
ture."
Warning that if the nation fails to
aid the farmer it will 'precipitate a
disaster that will affect every indus
trial and commercial activity" the
president made seven specific recon-
mendations to the 1926 leaders of agri-
culture and related lines here for the
conference. These were:
Extension of farmers cooperative
marketing organizations. President
Harding Endorsed indirectly legis!a
ton now pending in congress to ex-
empt these organizations from the
working of the antitrust laws.
Provision must be made for much
greater working capital" for the far
mers. Means must be taken by the
government. and private business to
insure that turnover capital shall be
generously supplied to the farmer and
on as reasonable terms as to other in
dustries.'
The government must place more
essential and scientific information at
the disposal of the farmers.
To aid both the farmer and consum-
er, measures must be taken to prevent
violent price fluctuations which result
from unorganized and haphazard pro-
duction."
The farmers will be benefited by far
seeing and wise transportation poll
cies. In this connection, the president
recommended greater use of water
ways and suggested that eventually
nearly all of the railroads of the coun-
try be electrified. He also risked
arousing the ire of eastern republicans
by giving unqualified Endorsement to
the Great Lakes waterway project.
The fullest development of national
resources through increased reclama.
ton of arid cutover and swamp lands
The nation must obtain a new con.
ception of the farmers place Gin our
social and economic scheme" and must
realize that the farmer of today is a
combination of the expert scientist
the businessman and the worker.
Delegates Cheer President.
The president, who walked the four
blocks from the White House to the
New Willard hotel where the confer
ence is meeting, received hearty ova-
ton when he appeared in the confer
ence hall. The delegates and others
in attendance, including number Of
senators and house members, listened
attentively and frequently applauded
the executive statements. Especially
strong applause greeted his declara-
ton for more adequate credit facili-
ties and applause ALSO broke forth
when the president made slight di.
erosion to assert that present condi.
tions in the agricultural industry 'is
truly national interest and not en-
titled to be regarded as primarily the
concern of either class or a section,
or bloc"

WHY SUFFER SO?

Why suffer so from a bad back,
from sharp, shooting twinges, head
aches, dizziness and distressing uri-
nary ills? Sank Centre people recon-
mend Doan's Kidney Pills. Ask your
neighbor! Could you ask for stronger
proof of merit?
Mrs. John Tombers, N. Main St.,
corner End, Sank Centre says:
MANY years ago my kidneys were in
such a miserable condition and my
health was so broken I just suffered
all the time. No one can realize the
terrible suffering one has to go
through during a spell of that dread
ed disease. My kidneys were in bad
condition and caused lot of an
noyance. The pains in my kidneys
were intense. When l lay down to
rest the soreness in my back was
acute. My head panied constantly
and dizziness was common occur
ance. / lost my appetite and felt
sick all over. I was nervous and
irritable, and I tried several RENE
dies without benefit until a relative
told me to get Doan's Kidney Pills.
The first few boxes helped me some
and gradually picked up in health.
I took five boxes of Doan's before l
was really cured. I have found that
a few doses now and then keeps my
kidneys in proper condition"

Sfearns County Child Wei
: fare Board Has Busy Year

the children We're returned 70 the IN,
stitution and in one case, the child
was placed in another home.
Undoubtedly the hardest work we
are called upon to do is with the un-
married mother. The great majolity
of these girls go to the large cities
for the period of the lylng-m. In
that way they come to the attention of
the Boad of Control Many times pa
ternity is established and settlement
made in Hennepin or Ramsey counties
but some of these girls come home.
We are at once notified by the Board
Of Control and asked to assist in es-
tablishing paternity and in arranging
a settlement.
Minnesota holds an acknowledged
place in laws relating to child welfare
and for the protection of illegitimate
children; there is an excellent law
where it is possible paternity should
be established before or in connec-
ton with any settlement for the bene-
fit of the mother. In many cases the
putative father will admit paternity
and a settlement without action and
without publicity can be agreed up
on.
Unfortunately, lamentable laxity
or mistaken ethics or possibly the OPP
portunity to collect fee, has led to
weird interpretations of this law on
the part of~some of our public Off
Gals.
y The total number of unmarried
mother cases handled by the Stearns
County Child Welfare Board during
1921 was forty. With only a few
exceptions. these girls are residents
of this county. Ten of these cases are
old ones held over from 1920.
