NEW CROPS SEEN
AS CRYING NEED
OF U. 5. FARMERS
Shifting Of Production centers
Creates Problem, Asserts
Chamber Of Commerce

washington, July 90. The
shifting Of crops throughout the
country has produced so many prob
lens the agricultural service depart
ment of the United States Chamber
of Commerce believes a pressing need
for a solution has arisen.
The department said in a report
Thursday, the use of mechanical
equipment had enabled farmers ia
grow crops in areas formerly consid-
cred Improbable. Production Of
wheat, cotton and corn, 1t said, had
shifted westward from old centers In
the eastern states.
1.-THE speed with which regional
shifts In crops like cotton and wheat
have been taking place, and the rap
idity Of the development OF machine
methods In agricultural production in
certain regions" the report explained,
'.'are creating serious problems Of re-
adjustment to new conditions"
It said some older areas were UNI
suited to the newer mechanical meth
DDS, while others found difficulty in
readjusting themselves to new condi-
tons and were losing ground In pro-
duction Of certain crops.
Substitute crops are needed, 1t add
ed, in noting that the wheat and corn
producing areas had shifted from the
north Atlantic to the mid and far
western states, while Texas and Ok
lahoma were rapidly adopting mecha-
nized equipment that enabled them
to increase cotton production far
above that Of the southeastern Attain
tic coastal states.

The Operative plan Of the Federal

entirety in a decision handed down
Thursday by the North Dakota su-

Attorneys in the case believed the
effect of the courts ruling would be
to enable the Farm Loan Board and
the Federal Land banks to grant ex-
tension of loans through local asso-
Citations.
The case, regarded as having a far
reaching effect, was selected from q
number of actions pending through

appeal to the United States Supreme
Court for a final decision was con-
sidered by attorneys as likely.

ACREAGE REDUCTION
IN STATE IS LISTED
IL Per Cent Cut in Crops in
North Dakota This Year
Noted by G. N. D. A.

Farmers in North Dakota and
Montana this year have reduced
greatly the acreage devoted to their
eight principal crops in comparison
with the acreage harvested last year,
according to estimates published by
the U. 8. d. A.
The reduction In North Dakota
which amounted to more than II
per cent, or 2.319.0 900 acres, Is largely
accounted for by decreases in the
so-called cash grain crops. The estt-
mated acreage in wheat, rye and
flax this year Is 2 Ia million acres
less than last year. The only one
Of the cash crops to. show an increase
was potatoes, which was increased Is
per cent. but only 1900 acres. Many
farmers switched from oats and bar
ley to corn this year, but oats still
rank first among the feed grains from
the acreage standpoint. The total
North Dakota acreage in feed crops.
including tame hay, Is only $1,000
acres less than last year. BY far the
greatest increase occurred In tame
hay, l72y000 acres, making the 1891
estimate 100000 acres which, with
one exception. Is the largest acreage
devoted to tame hay In this state In
the last IL years. OF almost equal
significance is the increase Of 100000
acres Of corn which makes the 1891
acreage almost 100000 acres. This
area Il. excepting In 1924. the largest
area ever devoted to corn e. North
Dakota. These two increases. along
with the decreases In the so-called cash
crops, indicate the extent to which

REFUSES TO CALL
SPECIAL SESSION
Governor Rules Extra Meeting
Of Lawmakers Unnecessary
to Meet .Drouth Conditions

Outlining the progress Of relief
work In drought stricken areas Of
northwestern North Dakota, Governor
George F. shafer today made public
a letter in which he deems as un-
necessary a special session Of the
legislature to consider the situation.
The letter vas sent to A. w. Kicker,
editor of the Farmers Union Herald,
st. Paul, who made the suggestion
for a special session in a letter sent
to the governor last week.
North Dakota, the governor said,
will assume its full share Of respon-
sibility in meeting the needs of this
situation in cooperation with various
other agencies, public and private,
local and national. which are now
at work on a general program of re-
lief"
Commenting on q statement by
Kicker that members of the Farmers
Union living in territory where crops
are plentiful will donate grain and
vegetables to the destitute. the gov
ernor said that the state could CO.
operate In such an offer.
Governor Shafer suggested that II
the donated wheat can be Obtained
from farmers in North Dakota the
state mill and elevator will grind the
wheat into flour, free Of cost, for dis
tribution to the needy.
The governor said free fuel has
been assured persons in the drouth
area and expressed confidence that
the private and governmental agen-
cies already In operation will be able
to meet the emergency. He said the
Bank Of North Dakota has been
called into action to finance the
counties In the drouth area. to pro-
vide funds for extensive poor relief
and to provide q revolving fund for
the purchase Of winter feed for live
stock.
