itors, which will result in the scaling
down of the mortgage load. Further.
provision is made for the farmer tor
borrow up to $4,000 for farm improve
ments, machinery and the like, at a
per cent interest rate, Mr.. Winder
said. This loan will enable many
foreclosed farmers to buy back their
property.
Surplus control provisions also are
embodied in the farm bill, through
which the government may pay rem
tails to farmers who allow their land
to lay idle. 1t is doubtful if this
provision will be invoked to any par
ticular extent this year, as the crops
have already been planted. In future
years, however, this provision may
become a highly important factor in
keeping farm production in step with
national or international needs, Mr..
Winder said.
The farm bill has the wholehearted
support of the farm organizations
that helped to write it, namely, the
Farm Bureau, the Grange and the
major farm marketing organizations
of the country, Mr. Winder said.
Other speakers at the conferences
are j. S. Jones, secretary-treasurer of
the Minnesota Farm Bureau; Mrs. E.
V. Ripley, home and community chair

organization. Attending are officers
of township and county Farm Bureau

WHY THE SPECULATION!

1t appears that there is some dis
satisfaction because no report ap-
peared in the May 18th issue of the
Askov American of the meeting held
in the D. B. S. hall on Friday eve
ming, May 18th, at which time men,
bers of the Askov Creamery Associa-
ton decided to close the creamery
during the proposed farm strike.
1t appears also that there is con-
siderable speculation as to why there
was no specific report of the meeting
in the news columns. Various rea-
sons seem to have been advanced,
most of them with skepticism.
If the readers will only turn back
to the May 18th issue of the Amer
lean, they will find there on page
eight a sketch of what the delegate
observed at the Continental Congress
meeting in Washington. No need of
republishing that after the meeting
on May 18th when the delegate re-
ported.
The vote on the closing of the
creamery for the duration of the
strike was inadvertently omitted from
the news columns. That vote was
145 for closing and % against closing.
Inasmuch as the strike was called
off the same evening by the national
president of the Farmers Holiday
Association, Milo Reno, and the
creamery was not closed at all the
vote was non-effective, at least for
the time being. 1t is therefore diff
ficult to see why so much emphasis
should be laid on the inadvertent
omission of that action.
In Pine City the members of the
creamery voted SO for and 1877 against
closing of the creamery. Other
creameries in the county, so far as
the American has learned, did not
vote on the proposition.
When there are several writer's on
newspaper it is just possible that
one may expect the other to handle
a certain subject and the other may
expect the same of the first person
with the result that neither does the
job. Critics may ask themselves the
question, if they think they would
never slip up on anything If they
were publishing a newspaper.
If the report of the vote on the
closing of the Askov creamery had
only appeared in print there would
have been no complaint, seems to
be the deductions of the criticism.
Can anyone imagine the publishers
of rural newspaper so stupid as to
wilfully omit such report and take
chances of arousing the ire of those
who are looking for opportunities to
show dissatisfaction? If it is i'm
possible to figure out any good reason
for the omission of that vote then
why in the name Of common sense
imagine that there was any reason
for it? What could be gained by the
omission? If the omission was will
full then why should this newspaper

FARM BILL MOST
SIGNIFICANT ACT
OF THE CENTURY
American Farm Bureau Leader Fore.
casts Return of Farm Prosperity
at District Conferences.
(Farm Bureau News Service)

(Farm Bureau News Service)
Passage of the new farm bill was
the most significant thing that has
taken place in the United States in
this century, according to M. S. Win
der, secretary of the American Farm
Bureau Federation. A spokesman for
the more than a million members of
the federation, Mr.. Winder was in
Minnesota this week to speak at the
annual spring district conference of
the Minnesota Farm Bureau Fedora
ton.
| The farm bill is destined to do the
things for agriculture that should
have been done ten years ago, when
the nations business began it's down.
ward descent toward panic conditions
because agriculture had lost its buy
ing power, Mr.. Winder declared. The
bill has been favorably received not
only by agriculture but also by those
groups that in the past had fought
against any action that would re-
store prosperity to the farm.
The farm bill contains three i'm
pOrtant points, the farm leader de-
clared. 1t provides for trade agree
ments between producers and pro-
cessOrs of farm commodities. From
these trade agreements will evolve a
condition where the farmer gets a
larger percentage of the consumers
dollar, and through them control is
granted the president to bring farm
commodity prices up to the level of
the things the farmer has to buy.
The president has the power to en-
force trade agreements by tax on
professors.
Initiation is another weapon handed
the president to fight the depression,
Mr.. Winder said. Through it the gold
dollar may be revalued to again give
the nation sufficient supply of
money to transact its business. Re-
valuation of the gold dollar, a prin-
ciple for which the Farm Bureau
long has fought, will keep the nation
''hard money" country, but money
will not be so hard for the common
man to obtain, because there will be
supply adequate to the business
needs of the country, the Farm Blu
reau leaders asserted.
May Re.fnance.
OF great and immediate importance
to every debt-burdened farmer in the
United States is the credit provisions
of the farm bill. The act provides
that any farmer whose mortgage debt
is less than the normal value of his
property, can refinance the mortgage
with As per cent money, whereas
now his interest charges are five and
six per cent and sometimes even more
than that. Mr.. Winder said that the
American Farm Bureau Federation
was deeply disappointed that lower
rate of interest was not obtained, but
that the striking concession granted
in the bill will mean that thousands
of farmers will be able to retain their
farms which otherwise would have
been lost by foreclosure. The liberal
amortization provision of the bill are
as helpful as the lower interest rate.
The bill also makes provisions for
composition of existing debts through
agreements between debtor and cred
