Emergency call for tractor volunteers to aid spring planting
County Extension Director M A Balkema urges every man woman and youth who can operate a tractor to enroll for relief driving at the Farm Bureau Office. The drive aims to keep tractors running around the clock when weather permits as delaying spring planting could aid the Axis. Placement centers will handle requests from farmers with locations listed Estherville Toms Armstrong Ringsted and more. Estherville High School will excuse youths who can operate tractors to answer calls through placement centers unless already spoken for. Balkema says this emergency requires a commando organization on the food front.
