FARMERS PLAN
TO MOVE HOMES
TO NEW LANDS
LANSING. Mich., Sep'.. 12 A
iji u-.h stricken, prolitlcss American
agricuitute has turnni back to the
l'.iblc for classic' example as it
sought fresh hope in the New i» ai s
825,000.t'OO marginal iamls program.

"Promised Land” compares with the
wholesale trek of farr.ic ■ <>• the
\V, st and Middiewesl s .on are to
uun as they abandon old homes for
new and poor lands f r good.
Country-Wide Plan
Prom the drouth-ravaged ranges oi
Montana to th; cut- ver waste lands
of Michigan, the government is pre
paring to give the farmers their lirst
•‘voluntary chance” to start farming
anew on land that tight to he econo-,
mically profitable, or “super-ma.«,
cal.”
Something must be done ut a per-;
manmt nature for the thousands o!
1 armors,” Frol'. J. U. Veatch, soil;
expert of Michigan State* College and :
long a student of the marginal lands |
problem. “It has become absolutely'
necessary to relieve the povert,. . d ;
suffering to which certain area.- in j
many states recurrently are exposed.” I
Farmers and federal officers are!
agreed that it has been a waste of
money and energy in attempting to
farm lands which never can be other
than “sub-marginal” or at the best
“marginal”—on the border oi being
nrofitable.
Fust Experiment
As early as 1929, it was pointed
cut here at the college, oldest agricul
tural school in the United States,
voluntary migration of farmers from
poor lands to good was tried at
Maita, Mont. Despite the fact that
Montana lacked adequate funds to
carry on mass migration, H. L.
I.antz, county agent ex Philipps
county, did improve immeasurably
the condition of many farmers by
the experiment.
Today the government is starting
with $25,000,000 to put the same
plan into action on a national scale.
In Michigan, Minnesota,-Kentucky,
Missouri, Texas and each of the
other states, federal surveys even
now are “blocking” out the unproduc
tive areas.
Estimates of the total number ot
farm families to be transplanted vary,
Dr. Veatch said. One recent estimate
said there are 360,000 farm, families
facing need of relief of which at least
ten per cent ought to be moved to new
lands for permanent aid.
Osborne will probably locate in
Greenville. —
John Rogers, who lived just across
the line in South Carolina, and a
brother-in-law of J. M. Duckworth,
died of heart failure last Friday
night, aged about 70 years. His re
mains were carried to Beaver Dam
church in Anderson county for bur
ial. He leaves a wife and several
grown children.
