seems to be trying to topple the one for frost. Practically evéry morning the thermometer has stood at freezing’ or below, this is unusual as there has been years when even the month of April was frost free. In any event the land is in excellent condition for cropping. and good progress appears to be made with the two main crops of po- tatoes and grain. Grass is start- ing to move but growth has cer- tainly been slow, as-evidence_in this connection it will be noted. * | that very few weeds appear to “have germinated.

An examination of the agricul- tural portion of the party plat- forms reveals that the different proposals fall into three broad classes. The first would be an expansion.or development of - | pgesent policies, second would — he thevcarrying out of ideas pre- ‘“-lyiously. proposed and — third would be the ‘completely new ideas. The. optimist who is pre- pared to accept these sugges- tions-at their. face value will conclude that regardless of the outcome on election day consid- ~ erable more = attention -will be paid to agricultural matters. The

” Robert + Dorgan "Willard Macloun

pessimist will probably take. the” position’ that the enthusiasm for agriculture’ will suffer consider- . able tapering - -off following May ~

30.

However-aie added emphasis on agricultural matters is en- couraging as. it indicated an awareness of the possibility that the industry has. been short- changed to some extent for . many years. The more forseeing _ ~}-will-realize-that this_neglect has” affected not only- agriculture but ‘also the economy generally. GRAIN THOUGHTS as

There has probably been more questioning of the Freight As sistance Policy on grain during ‘lthe past year than ever*-before. Suggestions have. been> made that grain production should be increased here and with this proposition we have no “argue ment. This would appear to be an opportune. time to suggest that with planting fime at hand a very practical way to improve de eeeneeaear the crop wottd Be to plant good } na seed.
