Because North Dakota has no as-

last summer was asked to cooperate
with the extension division, the ex-

of the FERA setup in allotting the
stock feed to the various co,reties

outlined.
Under protest federal authorities at
Washington permitted the North
Dakota FERA to step into the breach
and act as the agent in the purchase
of stock feed and the distribution of
the feed to the local dealers, the
FERA at no time havrng title to the
