North Dakota has relieved Thomas H. Noodle, DEM
ocrat of his duties governor of that state He took
office January 7, and acted in official capacity for

day He especially assaled the lowering of the tax
coconut and other substitute oils when he stated,
whatever benefit agriculture may hope to reap from
the crop control program will be offset by the dam
age done by unwse tariff policy" This absolutely
is true, for continued rise in the butter market is
always followed by increased consumption of but

Sank Centre alone it is estimated that consumption
of butter substitutes has been increased ten cent
For the welfare of the dairy farmers in particu-
lar and all farmers in general fat substitutes should
be covered by tariff adequate to protect the home

three horses persisted in of the most disastrous
farm fires in southwestern Minnesota in years at
New Prague recently. Members of the family awals-
ened at 4:45 m. to find the entire part of their
large modern barn in flames. The temperature stood
at thirty-two below Zero and in the icy wind that
accompanied the cold, Mr.. Schoenbauer and members
of his family sought to release the terror-stricken
cattle and horses that they might escape from the
blazing inferno Although all the horses finally
cut loose only one managed to make his escape from
the doomed barn. No attempt to call the
fire department, the fire had already made too
much Roadway, and the road to the farm blocked
with snow, making it difficult if impossible for
truck to reach the scene of the fire. There no
water with which the flames might be fought, and
snow was used in futile effort to quench them. Or
igin of the fire not known, but it was thought
that it was caused by defective wiring.

Might Be A Good Trade

The foreign market for American
pork and lard has fallen off heavily
the past few years due to smaller
consumption abroad and also to en-
couragement that foreign countries
have given their own farmers to
produce these products. The United
States Is now to cut It's tariff on
beer In half in return for larger
purchases by Germany and other
central Euopean countries Of pork
and lard. This might be worth
while trade. Farmers. especially the
dairy farmers, have suffered much
as beer consumption has cut down
the use Of milk so that now II they
can trade some Of their surplus hog
products to Germany in return for
admitting German beer, It might be
a good farmer bargain and at the
same time one in which there
would be an element Of Justice
