Why FARMING DECLINED

A review of the present status Of
agriculture In New England has
shown that tho more important con
trlbuting causes OF the condition
which exists are: Waste OF farm re-
sources. failure to understand and
practice tho fundamental principles
OF business: lack OF an adequate pro
gram of farm management and soil
management. with che attendant de
pletion OF soil fertility; choice OF un'
suitable and oftentimes unmarketahle
varieties. the use OF poor seed; the
Keeping and breeding OF inferior ami.
mails: tho use Of purchased feeds In
stead OF home grown grain; quantity
instead OF quality production; and
failure 60 grade produce properly and
according 20 law. The decline OF
New England agriculture presents a
serious problem which deserves the
most careful study.--Bdnksr-Fdrmer

STATE BOARD
TO MAINTAIN
U. s. AID ROADS
Highway Commission to Take
Over Work in North Da-
kOta After July l

After July first the maintenance
of all state highways, upon which
federal and state aid has been ex-
pended, will pass absolutely under
the control of the state highway
commission, and it will be obliged
to pay the costs of such mainten-
ance from the moneys collected each
year from the tax on gasoline and
| automobile registration. This is the
effect Of chapter 1877 of the laws Of
1925, enacted at the last session of
the state legislature, and as con-
strued by the attorney generals Of
flee in recent legal opinion to the
highway department..
In the past, the maintenance
fund.-" collected from the registra-
[tion tax, was turned over to the
counties and disbursed by them up
on the certificate of the chief en-
gineer and Secretary w. G. Black,
and under the general supervision of
the highway department. Some
county officers believe that chapter
1877 made it the duty of the highway
commission to take over and main
tain, out of the highway department
funds, each and every part CT the
entire state highway system and re-
lieved the counties entirely of this
burden. To clear up this erroneous
view and to secure an exact inter
probation of the law, the highway au-
thorities requested construction
of the law by the attorney generals
office. The pertinent paragraphs Of
the legal opinion supplied to the
highway department by George
Reimstad, assistant attorney general,
reads as follows:
with reference thereto (Chap.
1879 you ask the following question:
Does that part Of the statute, with
reference to maintenance of fed
eral aid and state highways, refer
to constructed or reconstructed fed
eral and state aid projects, or does
it refer to all Of the state highway
system, some of which has been i'm
proved in varying degrees by coun-
ties and townships, and some that
remains entirely unimproved
Under the provisions Of the Fed
eral Aid Act, it is the duty of the
state to maintain the highways con-
structed or reconstructed through
priation above referred to with re-
for use upon such portions of the
state highway system as have not
been constructed or reconstructed
under state and federal aid"
The attorney generals office also
ruled that any unexpended balance
to the credit of the Especial road
maintenance, fund.-" on July first of
this year, does not revert to the
county commissioners as they see
fit. On the other hand, that such
expended balance must be applied to
! maintaining the completed state and
federal aid roads and other portions
of this state highway system in the
same manner as was done prior to
July first, and that this must be
done until such funds are complete
ly exhausted. In brief, the new law
does not change the status of such
i maintenance funds now in the hands
of the counties, or which they are
entitled TO receive under the old
law.
